text: House Unanimously Gives Feds More Paid Vacation Print article Send a Tip by Mike Flynn 6 Oct 2013 post a comment On Saturday, the House voted, unanimously, to give furloughed federal workers back-pay when the government re-opens. The 800,000 "non-essential" workers who are currently prohibited from working will be compensated for their non-work. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid dismissed the measure as a "paid vacation," although the Senate is expected to approve it on Monday. Keep in mind, most federal workers are still on the job, working and earning a paycheck. This benefit of payment is simply being unanimously granted by the House also to those who aren't working because the government deems them "non-essential." Only the federal government could offer better benefits to those deemed "non-essential." Personally, I think a designated pool of "non-essential" workers is a good place to start for some overdue trimming of the government workforce. Government shouldn't really be in the "non-essential" business. Washington really does think it is different than the rest of the country. Even fallout from a dramatic event like a government shutdown can be reversed by legislative fiat. I'm not unsympathetic to those furloughed federal workers, but the whole country has suffered sharp economic blows over the past several years. Why should taxpayers be on the hook to indemnify them from any economic hardship? Millions of Americans have been laid-off, many permanently. Does the House rush to unanimously to authorize funds to give back-pay to these workers? Of course not, nor should it. So, why are federal workers a protected class? I heard one commentator said back-pay was justified because the shutdown isn't the workers "fault." Well, it isn't the "fault" of the factory worker who is laid-off when business slumps. Often, these lay-offs, in fact, are the unintended consequences of actions taken by these very same "non-essential" workers. There are many out-of-work coal miners, for instance, whose jobs have been lost to overregulation by the EPA, where 96% of workers are deemed "non-essential." Perhaps if Washington had to face the same economic hardships weathered by millions of Americans each day,it would finally realize the full consequences of its actions. That not a single Congressman thinks it should goes a long way to explaining the mess we are in.

Automotive Eras 1
Vehicles that can be considered automobiles were demonstrated as early as 1769, although that date is disputed, and 1885 marked the introduction of gasoline powered internal combustion engines. Automotive history is generally divided into a number of eras based on the major design and technology shifts. Although the exact boundaries of each era can be hazy, scholarship has defined them as follows:
Steam Era (1700's – 1900)
Steam-powered self-propelled vehicles were devised in the late 17th century. A Flemish priest, Ferdinand Verbiest, was thought to have demonstrated in 1678 a small (24 inch / 61 cm long) steam 'car' to the Chinese emperor, yet there is no solid evidence for this event.
Nicolas-Joseph Cugnot demonstrated his fardier à vapeur, an experimental steam-driven artillery tractor in 1770 and 1771. Cugnot's design proved to be impractical and his invention was not developed in his native France - the centre of innovation then passed over to the United Kingdom. By 1784 William Murdoch had built a working model of a steam carriage in Redruth, and in 1801 Richard Trevithick was running a full-sized vehicle on the road in Camborne.
Walter Hancock the builder and operator of London steam buses, in 1838 built a four-seat steam phaeton. Also in 1838, Scotsman Robert Davidson built an electric locomotive that attained a speed of four miles (6 km) an hour. In England a patent was granted in 1840 for the use of rails as conductors of electric current, and similar American patents were issued to Lilley and Colten in 1847. Between 1832 and 1839 (the exact year is uncertain), Robert Anderson of Scotland invented the first crude electric carriage, powered by non-rechargeable primary cells.
Such vehicles were in vogue for a time, and over the next decades such innovations as hand brakes, multi-speed transmissions, improved speed, and steering were developed. Some were commercially successful in providing mass transit, until a backlash against these large speedy vehicles resulted in passing a law, the Locomotive Act in 1865. It stated that self-propelled vehicles on public roads in the United Kingdom must be preceded by a man on foot waving a red flag and blowing a horn. This effectively killed road auto development in the UK for most of the rest of the 19th century, as inventors and engineers shifted their efforts to improvements in railway locomotives. The law was not finally repealed until 1896 although the need for the red flag was removed in 1878.
The first automobile patent in the United States was granted to Oliver Evans in 1789. In 1805. Evans demonstrated his first successful self-propelled vehicle, which not only was the first automobile in the USA but was also the first amphibious vehicle, as his steam-powered vehicle was able to travel on wheels on land and via a paddle wheel in the water.
There were also European efforts. In 1815, a professor at Prague Polytechnich, Josef Bozek, built an oil-fired steam car. Belgian born Etienne Lenoir made a car with an internal combustion engine around 1860, though it was driven by coal-gas. His experiment lasted for 7 miles (11 km), but it took him 3 hours. Lenoir never tried experimenting with cars again. The French claim a Deboutteville-Delamare was successful, and celebrated the 100th birthday of the car in 1984.
About 1870, in Vienna, capital of Austria (then the Austro-Hungarian Empire), inventor Siegfried Marcus put a liquid-fuelled internal combustion engine on a simple handcart which made him the first man propelling a vehicle by means of gasoline. Today, this car is known as the "First Marcus Car". In 1883, Marcus got a German patent for a low voltage ignition of the magneto type; this was his only automotive patent. This design was used for all further engines, and the four-seat "Second Marcus Car" of 1888 / 89. This ignition in conjunction with the rotating brush carburettor made the second cars design very innovative.
It is generally acknowledged the first automobiles with gasoline powered internal combustion engines were completed almost simultaneously by several German inventors working independently: Karl Benz built his first automobile in 1885 in Mannheim. Benz was granted a patent for his automobile on January 29,1886 and began the first production of automobiles in 1888. Soon after, Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach in Stuttgart in 1889 designed a vehicle from scratch to be an automobile rather than a horse carriage fitted with an engine. They also were inventors of the first motor bike in 1886. One of the first four wheel petrol-driven automobiles built in Britain came in Birmingham in 1895 by Frederick William Lanchester who also patented the disc brake.
Veteran Era (1888 – 1904)
The first production of automobiles was by Karl Benz in 1888 in Germany and under license to Benz, in France by Emile Roger. By 1900 mass production of automobiles had begun in France and the United States. The first company to form exclusively to build automobiles was Panhard et Levassor in France. Formed in 1889, they were quickly followed by Peugeot two years later. In the United States, brothers Charles and Frank Duryea founded the Duryea Motor Wagon Company in 1893, becoming the first American automobile manufacturing company. However, it was Ransom E. Olds, and his Olds Motor Vehicle Company (later known as Oldsmobile) who would dominate this era of automobile production. Its large scale production line was running in 1902. Within a year, Cadillac, Winton, and Ford were producing cars in the thousands (formed from the Henry Ford Company).
Within a few years, dizzying assortments of technologies were being produced by hundreds of producers all over the western world. Steam, electricity, and gasoline-powered autos competed for decades, with gasoline internal combustion engines achieving dominance in the 1910s. Dual and even quad-engine cars were designed, and engine displacement ranged to more than a dozen liters. Many modern advances, including gas / electric hybrids, multi-valve engines, overhead camshafts, and four-wheel drive, were attempted and discarded at this time.
Innovation was rapid and rampant, with no clear standards for basic vehicle architectures, body styles, construction materials, or controls. Many veteran cars use a tiller rather than a wheel for steering for example, and most operated at a single speed. Chain drive was dominant over the modern driveshaft, and closed bodies were extremely rare.
On November 5th 1895, George B. Selden was granted a United States patent for a two-stroke automobile engine (U.S. Patent 549,160 ). This patent did more to hinder than encourage development of autos in the USA. Selden licensed his patent to most major American auto makers, collecting a fee on every car they produced.
Throughout the veteran car era, however, automobiles were seen as more of a novelty than a genuinely useful device. Breakdowns were frequent, fuel was difficult to obtain, roads suitable for travelling were scarce, and rapid innovation meant that a year-old car was nearly worthless. Major breakthroughs in proving the usefulness of the automobile came with the historic long-distance drive of Bertha Benz in 1888 when she traveled more than fifty miles (80 km) from Mannheim to Pforzheim to make people aware of the potential of the vehicles her husband, Karl Benz, manufactured, and after Horatio Nelson Jackson's successful trans-continental drive across the United States in 1903.
Of course with vehicles of this age they can present their own unique challenges for today's collectors. Parts for repair and restoration of these early cars are notoriously hard to find and in a lot of cases have to be handmade. Estimations have been made that there were well over a thousand manufacturers in the US at this time further complicating the restoration process. Of course nearly all of these have now since gone out of business taking with them such secrets as the specification sheets, wiring diagrams etc. But despite all these challenges, there is both an active collector and restorer community of these early cars, which when completed can be extremely valuable.
Antique or Brass Era (1905 – 1914)
The antique or brass era lasted from roughly 1905 through to the beginning of World War I in 1914. It was in this era that first mass produced vehicles with gasoline engines, immortalized by Henry Ford's model T. The brass era was named for the widespread use of the fancy brass fittings and brass lanterns that were a natural addition to the new 'horseless carriage'.1905 was a signal year in the development of the automobile, marking the point when the majority of sales shifted from the hobbyist and enthusiast to the average user. Brass began to be phased out about 1914 in favor of nickel, which was eventually abandoned in favor of chrome.
Within the 15 years that make up this era, the various experimental designs and alternate power systems would be marginalized. Steam power proved too cumbersome and electric motors were limited by battery technology (as they still are today), but gasoline was cheap and plentiful, encouraging both two-stroke and four-stroke development.
Although the modern touring car had been invented earlier, it was not until the "Panhard et Levassor's Système" was widely licensed and adopted that recognizable and standardized automobiles were created. This system specified front-engined, rear-wheel drive internal combustion cars with a sliding gear transmission. Traditional coach-style vehicles were rapidly abandoned, and buckboard runabouts lost favor with the introduction of tonneaus and other less-expensive touring bodies.
The vehicles of this time were a considerable investment that only the wealthy could afford but they were far from luxurious. There were no doors, heaters or windshield wipers and when headlights were finally added they had to be lit with a match. The engines had to be started with a crank that would often kick back sometimes resulting in a broken arm. In many cases it took two people to turn the steering wheel and gasoline was not always easy to find. A lack of roads coupled with tire technology that was in its infancy resulted in all too frequent flat tires.
Throughout this era, development of automotive technology was rapid, due in part to hundreds of small manufacturers all competing to gain the world's attention. Key developments included electric ignition (by Robert Bosch, 1903) and the electric self-starter (by Charles Kettering, for the Cadillac Motor Company in 1910-1911), independent suspension, and four-wheel brakes (by the Arrol-Johnson Company in 1909). Leaf springs were widely used for suspension, though many other systems were still in use, with angle steel taking over from armored wood as the frame material of choice. Transmissions and throttle controls were widely adopted, allowing a variety of cruising speeds, though vehicles generally still had discrete speed settings rather than the infinitely variable system familiar in cars of later eras. Between 1907 and 1912, the high-wheel motor buggy resembling the horse buggy of before the turn of the century was in its heyday, with over seventy-five makers including Holsman and IHC both originating from Chicago and Sears which sold via catalog. Soon the high-wheeler would be killed by the Model T from Ford..
The early Model T Ford revolutionized the automotive industry with the introduction of assembly-line production, which in turn made it possible for Ford to offer their car for sale at a much more affordable price. Prior to the introduction of the Model T, automobiles were built by hand, one at a time, and usually sold for anywhere from twice the average worker's salary to several times that amount. Although Henry Ford sold millions of black Model T's, it was men like Alfred P. Sloan of Chevrolet who saw the value of enticing people with new and exciting options. Annual offerings of extras such as the electric starter, headlights, synchromesh transmissions etc kept the industry very much alive. However by using assembly-line production and pre-manufactured parts, it was Henry Ford who was able to bring automobiles to the masses. With a selling price of $300 a Model T was now 1/5 of an average worker's annual salary.

Nicholas H. Jambor, President
Ekone Oyster Company
192 Bay Center Road
South Bend, Washington 98527
Dear Mr. Jambor:
On February 13 and 14, 2003, we inspected your seafood processing facility, located at 378 Bay Center Road, South Bend, Washington. We found that you have a serious deviation from the seafood Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) Regulations, Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 123 (21 CFR 123). In accordance with 21 CFR 123.6(g), failure of a processor to have and implement a HAACP plan that complies with this section or otherwise operate in accordance with the requirements of this part, renders the fishery products adulterated within the meaning of Section 402(a)(4) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act), 21 U.S.C. 342(a)(4), Accordingly, your refrigerated, vacuum packaged, smoked oysters are adulterated in that they may have been.prepared, packed, or held under unsanitary conditions whereby they may have been contaminated with filth or whereby they may have been rendered injurious to health. You may find the Act, the Seafood HACCP regulation, and the Fish & Fisheries Products Hazards & Controls Guidance, 3rd edition, June 2001, through links in FDA?s homepage at www.fda.gov .
The deviation was as follows:
You must conduct a hazard analysis to determine whether there are food safety hazards that are reasonably likely to occur and have a HACCP plan that, at a minimum, lists the critical control points, to comply with 21 CFR Part 123.6(a) and (c)(2). A critical control point is defined in 21 CFR Part 123.3(b) as a ?point, step, or procedure in a food process at which control can be applied and a food safety hazard can as a result be prevented, eliminated, or reduced to acceptable levels.?? However, your firm?s HACCP plan for refrigerated, vacuum packaged, smoked oysters, does not list the critical control point of smoking for controlling the food safety hazard of Clostridium botulinurn toxin formation in the final product and pathogen survival.
We may take further action if you do not promptly correct these violations. For instance, we may take action to seize your product(s) and/or enjoin your firm from operating.
We received your letter dated March 19, 2003. That letter indicated that you are working at modifying the smoke chamber to achieve the time and temperature parameters to control Clostridium botulinurn. You provided no timeline for when you expect this to occur.
Please respond in writing within 15 working days from your receipt of this letter. Your response should outline the specific things you are doing to correct these deviations including when you expect the smoke chamber to be modified. You may wish to include in your response documentation such as your revised HACCP plan or other useful information that would assist us in evaluating your corrections. If you cannot complete all corrections before you respond, we expect you will explain the reason for your delay and state when you will correct any remaining deviations.
This letter may not list all the deviations at your facility. You are responsible for ensuring that your processing plant operates in compliance with the Act, the Seafood HACCP regulations, and the Good Manufacturing Practice regulations (21 CFR Part 110). You also have a responsibility to use procedures to prevent further violations of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and all applicable regulations.
Please send your reply to the Food and Drug Administration, Attention: Lisa M. Althar, Compliance Officer, 22201 23rd Drive SE, Bothell, Washington 98021-4421. If you have questions regarding any issue in this letter, please contact Lisa M. Althar at (425) 483-4940.

Paris Hotels - Paris is a city of romance, art and fashionable café-lined boulevards. Whether you're browsing for haute couture in the city's sleek boutiques, whiling away the afternoon over coffee while watching the world go by or taking in the many world-renowned masterpieces in the city's galleries, Paris is a city for the head, and the heart. With its impeccable reputation for fine dining, Paris's nightlife swings between the sultry jazz bars of the Marais and the raucous burlesques of Montmartre. Throw in cruses down the Seine, book browsing on the left bank and promenading on the Champs-Élysées and you've got a recipe for holiday heaven. Things to see Dominating the skyline of Paris since 1889, the Eiffel Tower is perhaps the symbol of the city. You'll see it throughout your trip, thanks to its prominent position on the Champ de Mars, but you can also ascend its 324 meter frame for a dazzling view of the city beneath you from its observation deck. Although you can reach it in many ways, the most picturesque is to arrive at the foot of the tower at the end of a river cruise. From one public artwork to a museum full of masterpieces, the Louvre is home to arguably the most recognisable portrait of all – the Mona Lisa – but there's more to this glinting glass icon than that famous smile. Another world-renowned slice of Parisian life can be found at the Gothic Notre Dame Cathedral, on the banks of the Seine and an inspiration for literary hero Victor Hugo as well as countless aspiring architects. Hotels in Paris Paris is a city which takes its tourism industry very seriously, so unsurprisingly there's a wide array of decadent luxury to be found throughout the more glamorous arrondisements of the city. Five-star hotels in Paris know how to take full advantage of their locations, so those near the Eiffel Tower may offer private terraces as well as the standard free WiFi, flat-screen televisions and on-site spas. From marble fittings to in-room massages and in-bar jazz concerts, you'll find plenty of options for living the high life. From modern purpose built spas to historic gothic piles, high-end accommodation comes in many shapes in this city. Where to stay The Champs-Élysées is gold-flecked, thanks to the array of department stores and boutiques which nestle along it. With the Arc de Triomphe at one end, and all manner of flagship stores and restaurants before it, spending time here won't be cut-price but will be a treat for all the senses. As well as putting you a stone's throw from the Eiffel Tower, the 7th arrondisement means you're close to the gardens of the Champ de Mars – perfect for a sunny afternoon's stroll – and its townhouses are a slice of authentic old Parisian architecture. Arty Saint-Germain-des-Pres mixes 19th century cafés with fashionable boulevards and is close to the funky Latin Quarter. How to get to The biggest, most international of Paris' airports is Roissy - Charles de Gaulle, which is located in the northern commuter suburb of Roissy, around 30 kilometres outside of central Paris. A shuttle service runs between the airport and the train station, linking you to the center in regular and inexpensive style. Orly Airport is to the south, around 18 kilometres away from the heart of the action, and similarly well-connected by reliable and reasonable public transport. For visitors coming via the Eurostar, or from mainland Europe, the Gare Du Nord will be the first port of call, and is centrally located with easy access to the Metro.

Recording Internal Sound
Hey guys. I want to be able to record stereo sound using Audacity. I know how to do it on XP, but can't on Windows 7. Currently in Audacity I can record sound from my mic, but not stereo. Can anybody help?
For anyone else with this problem, I found the solution.
Go to the "Sound" console in the control panel.
Switch to "recording" tab.
It should have something like "microphone", "microphone array", and "rec. playback". The last one is your sound card. Just set that as the default device under the recording tab.
Now Audacity should record system sounds.

I'm not really sure but I think there's a Stereo Mixer option somewhere in the sound settings. It should allow you to record what you hear. I'll check if I can find it.

I see you have an Inspiron, Which model desktop? With that SoundBlaster Xfi sound card you may not have the What You Hear (what Soundblaster calls the System Mixer) that you need to be able to record streaming audio from the Internet. I do a lot of support on the Dell users forum and there are a lot of issues getting the Dell OEM Xfi cards to work in Windows 7. SoundBlaster is not supporting Windows 7 on all models of the Xfi cards - just the current production models - but some users on the Dell forum have reported using the Retail SB Win 7 drivers and getting it work - but not all have been able to get the What You Hear function. If you have Win 7 64 bit, SoundBlaster has an Xfi Beta driver that users have reported to work.
The What You Hear may not be displayed in the Recording Tab. If not, RIGHT click in an empty area on that panel then LEFT click to display disabled devices. If your lucky What You Hear will now be displayed and you can select that to be the default recording device (and be able to record streaming audio).

@Fireberd its actually a laptop.
And you are right, what you hear wasn't under the Recording tab. And I did the disabled devices thing.
But as I said in OP I got it to work. Just had to set the Sound Card as my default recording device, not my Microphone Array.
Thanks to all you guys.

Playing around with sony vegas 10 pro and audacity I just did moments ago figure out stereo mix for my CLARO Halo sound card running under windows 7.
In my case the trick is to select line in as the recording source in the 7 sound panel and card's software. Then stereo mix is also selected on the card's software. Audacity is told to map to CLARO HT Line 1. Line 1 is out put from a mixer I have connected to a turntable and wireless mike.
hmm i need to try all this out on a site like stickam or LV which is where I really want to send multiple sounds too. Somehow I bet the logitech wbcams built in usb mike may not work the same hmmm and what abt it working right with yahoo messenger.
computer sound is entirely too complex for something that ought to be easy---sending 2 or 3 sounds at once over the internet.
ok the stickam test is done. The above selections on the CLARO software panel are good to go I believe. On the stickam panel that comes up to select the cam and sound I picked my logitech webcam---for the mic I thought for sure I'd have to pick stereo mix or line 1 (CLARO). But a test record of a "show" demonstrated I could hear my mic but only very very faint music--I guess that the mic was picking up. So I went back to panel and selected WAVE for the mic---did a test record of a "show" and viola. The music almost drown out the mic so I still have to figure that out. Sliding the level down on the logitech panel in stickam might turn down mic too--so maybe the answer is to crank mic sound up even more on mixing board. Getting there slowly..lol.

To newcomers, the patchwork quilt of Texas liquor laws is a puzzle and an embarrassment.But to Texans, it reflects the hallowed principle of local control.Since 1891, voters in each city, county or justice precinct vote whether to allow or ban liquor, beer and wine sales in any combination.In the last two years, more than 100 Texas localities have voted on expanding liquor sales.Only 11 voted "no."Against that backdrop of an increasingly libertarian view of alcohol and growing frustration with Texas' laws, Arlington voters will decide Nov. 5 whether to end a 111-year-old ban on sales, including retail outlets.The ballot is plain: A "Yes" or "no" on "The legal sale of all alcoholic beverages including mixed beverages."A "yes" vote ends an era in Arlington, the largest U.S. city that mostly has no liquor stores.But two years ago, in a similar election, Southlake voters chose "no."Some leaders there were frustrated because state law prevents cities from strictly limiting the number and location of outlets, except to ban them near parks, churches, schools, hospitals or other stores.That concern has not been raised as often in Arlington, where the primary criticism revolves around the Texas Rangers baseball team's role in the petition drive.A Rangers spokesman has said the team hoped to simplify wine sales to fans under the stadium's various licenses. But the petition allows all liquor sales citywide.Arlington voters deserve that choice.According to a 2008 study by the Waco-based Perryman Group, Texas cities with liquor stores not only collect added sales taxes but also see increased retail and leasing activity overall.In the final scoring, it's a winning argument.The Star-Telegram Editorial Board recommends a vote for the sale of alcohol.

Drones—Coming to a Sky Near You?
U.S. Escalating Drone War in Yemen
By Jim Lobe
Even as President Barack Obama touts his progress in extracting the U.S. from wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, his administration appears to be deepening its covert and military involvement in strife-torn Yemen.
Washington is worried about recent advances by al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), particularly in the southern part of the country.
Since the failed "Christmas Day" bombing by an AQAP-trained Nigerian national of a U.S. airliner over Detroit in December 2009, the group has been regarded here as a greater threat to the U.S. homeland than its Pakistan-based parent.
Quoting senior officials, The Wall Street Journal and other major U.S. publications reported April 26 that the administration has relaxed constraints on both the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the Pentagon in conducting drone strikes against suspected AQAP-affiliated militants in the Arab world's poorest nation.
Henceforth, the CIA and the Pentagon's Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC), which conduct parallel counterterrorist campaigns in Yemen, will be able to strike suspected militants whose precise identity may not be known but whose "behavior" suggests that they are either "high-value" operatives or engaged in plots to strike U.S. interests.
Such assessments will be based on intelligence acquired from such sources as informants on the ground, aerial surveillance, and phone intercepts, as well as circumstantial evidence regarding their associations, according to the reports.
The new guidelines are apparently a compromise between those in the administration who favored that the previous policy of authorizing strikes only against positively identified militants who appeared on a "kill list," and others, including CIA director Gen. David Petraeus (ret.), who wanted a further easing of the rules of engagement.
They are raising concerns among some experts that Washington is slipping ever more deeply into a conflict—or a series of conflicts—it knows relatively little about.
"There is a dangerous drift here, and the policymakers in the U.S. don't appear to realize they are heading into rough waters without a map," wrote Gregory Johnsen, a Yemen specialist at Princeton University and editor of the Waq Al-Waq blog.
"In Yemen, drones and missile strikes appear to have replaced comprehensive policy," he noted. "…Since late 2009, the number of U.S. strikes in Yemen have increased and, as the strikes have grown in frequency, AQAP has grown in recruits."
"What does the U.S. do if AQAP continues to gain more recruits and grow stronger even as the number of missile strikes increase?" he asked. "Does the U.S. bomb more? Does the U.S. contemplate an invasion?"
Other critics have worried that escalating the drone war in Yemen, where the U.S.- and Saudi-engineered resignation of President Ali Abdullah Saleh in February has so far done little to calm the country's many regional, tribal, political and sectarian conflicts, could further poison public opinion against the U.S., much as it has in Pakistan. The CIA has carried out more than 250 drone strikes in Pakistan since 2009, according to the Long War Journal Web site.
Many of those were so-called "signature" strikes against targets whose observed behavior, or "pattern of life," suggested that they were active members of either the Afghan or Pakistani Taliban insurgencies. Under the prevailing rules of engagement, the CIA did not have to know either the precise identity or importance of the target before ordering a strike.
According to published accounts, Petraeus has repeatedly requested similar rules of engagement for the CIA, which works closely with JSOC, in Yemen.
He reportedly pressed his case with increasing urgency as militants and tribal militias allegedly associated with AQAP—which, according to U.S. officials, has adopted the name of Ansar al-Sharia—expanded their control over several southern provinces in the last months of Saleh's reign and in the immediate aftermath of his replacement by Vice President Abdu Rabu Mansour Hadi.
His pleas were initially rebuffed, but Obama reportedly approved the new rules—which some officials have been quoted as calling "signature lite"—earlier in April. They give the two agencies authority to target unknown individuals and groups whose "pattern of life" suggests that they are "high-value" targets or are plotting against U.S. interests.
Officials argue that the new rules are justified in part by improved CIA and JSOC intelligence-gathering capabilities on the ground in recent months. Because Washington did not want to be seen as supporting an unpopular dictator as Saleh tried to hang on, it reduced its presence in the country—among other things pulling out most of its military personnel—thus making intelligence collection more difficult.
Better intelligence, according to these officials, should reduce the possibility that civilians will be hit by missile or drone strikes.
They also argue that looser rules of engagement are essential to help the Hadi government if it is to regain control over the southern provinces of Abyan, Shabwa and Bayda from AQAP and Ansar al-Sharia.
Indeed, the tempo of such strikes has sharply increased in recent months. At least three suspected AQAP-affiliated individuals were reportedly killed in a drone strike in the southern city of Mudiyah April 26. Two other strikes were carried out since the previous weekend, including one that killed a senior AQAP commander, Mohammed Said al-Umdah, in northern Yemen, and another that killed at least three other suspected militants in Shabwa province, according to the Long War Web site.
The Web site reported at least 13 U.S. air and missile strikes in Yemen between March 1 and April 26 of this year, compared to only 10 in all of 2011, the best known and most controversial of which killed Anwar al-Awlaki, a Yemeni-American imam whose on-line sermons on behalf of al-Qaeda were considered particularly effective in gaining Anglophone recruits and who was alleged by the administration to have also played a leadership role in operations directed against the U.S.
While Awlaki was on the CIA's "kill list," a second U.S. citizen slain in that strike, Samir Khan, was not.
Washington had hoped that Awlaki's death would constitute a major blow to AQAP's recruitment and direction. But many Yemen experts argued that his importance to the organization had been greatly exaggerated, and Johnsen noted April 26 that the group's threat to the U.S. "has grown stronger…even after the death of Anwar al-Awlaki, which apparently surprises some people."
"…I believe drones and air strikes should be used extremely sparingly and only in situations where the U.S. knows beyond a shadow of a doubt who it is hitting," he wrote. "Now, the U.S. will say that is what it is doing, but tens of strikes in four months and a number of mistakes in the past three years suggest that these strikes have neither been sparing or surgical." ❑

The President's Private War
By Andrew P. Napolitano
Did you know that the United States government is using drones to kill innocent people in Pakistan? Did you know that the Pakistani government has asked President Obama to stop it and he won't? Did you know that Pakistan is a sovereign country that has nuclear weapons and is an American ally?
At the end of April, the Obama administration not only acknowledged the use of the drones; it also revealed that it has plans to increase the frequency and ferocity of the attacks. White House counterterrorism adviser John O. Brennan argued that these attacks are "in full accordance with the law" and are not likely to be stopped anytime soon.
Brennan declined to say how many people were killed or just where the killings took place or who is doing it. But we know that Obama has a morbid fascination with his plastic killing machines, and we know that these machines are among the favored tools of the CIA. We also know that if the president had been using the military to do this, he'd be legally compelled to reveal it to Congress and eventually to seek permission.
We know about the need to tell Congress and ask for permission because of the War Powers Act. This law, enacted in 1973 over President Richard Nixon's veto, permits the president to use the military for 90 days before telling Congress and for 180 days before he needs congressional authorization. Obama must believe that he can bypass this law by using civilian CIA agents, rather than uniformed military, to do his killing.
The Constitution limits the presidential use of war powers to those necessary for an immediate defense of the United States or those exercised pursuant to a valid congressional declaration of war. In this case of Pakistan, the president has neither. And international law prohibits entering a sovereign country without its consent. But Brennan argued that the Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF), which Congress enacted in 2001 in the aftermath of 9/11 to enable President George W. Bush to pursue the perpetrators of 9/11, is essentially carte blanche for any president to kill whomever he wants, and that the use of drones, rather than the military or rather than arresting those the government believes have conspired to harm us, is a "surgical" technique that safeguards the innocent.
Attorney General Eric Holder made a similar unconstitutional argument a few months ago when he stated in defense of the president's using drones to kill Americans in Yemen that the AUMF, plus the careful consideration that the White House gives to the dimensions of each killing and the culpability of each person killed, somehow satisfied the Constitution's requirements for due process.
What monstrous nonsense all this is.
These killings 10,000 miles from here hardly constitute self-defense and are not in pursuit of a declaration of war. So, what has Congress done about this? Nothing. And what have the courts done about this? Nothing.
Prior to the president's ordering the killing of the New Mexico-born and unindicted and uncharged Anwar al-Awlaki, al-Awlaki's American father sued the president in federal district court and asked a judge to prevent the president from murdering his son in Yemen. After the judge dismissed the case, a CIA-fired drone killed al-Awlaki and his American companion and his 16-year-old American son.
In his three-plus years in office, Obama has launched 254 drones toward persons in Pakistan, and they collectively have killed 1,277 persons there. The New America Foundation, a Washington think tank that monitors the presidential use of drones in Pakistan, estimates that between 11 and 17 percent of the drone victims are innocent Pakistani civilians. So much for Brennan's surgical strikes. So much for Holder's due process.
The president is waging a private war against private persons—even Americans—whose deaths he obviously believes will keep America safe. But he is doing so without congressional authorization, in violation of the Constitution, and in a manner that jeopardizes our freedom.
Who will keep us safe from a president who wants to use drones here? How long will it be before local American governments—313 of which already possess drones—use them to kill here because they are surgical and a substitute for due process? Can you imagine the outcry if Cuba or China launched drones at their dissidents in Florida or California and used Obama's behavior in Pakistan as a justification?
How long will it be before even the semblance of our Constitution is gone?

|Film actor
Paul Johnson (February 25, 1944 – October 19, 1982), better known as Paul America, was a member of Andy Warhol's Warhol Superstars group who starred in one Warhol-directed film, My Hustler. He also appeared in Edie Sedgwick's last film Ciao! Manhattan (1972) and in the documentary Superartist.
Warhol years[edit]
According to most stories, Warhol discovered America at a discotheque called Ondine sometime in mid-1965, and soon invited him to visit The Factory. At first he simply hung around making repairs to a motorcycle, eventually forming close relationships with the Warhol crowd; living briefly with Chuck Wein and engaging in a short-lived romance with Edie Sedgwick.
Warhol described America as "unbelievably good looking - like a comic strip drawing of Mr. America, clean cut, handsome, very symmetrical," and also suggested that perhaps he may have gotten his name because of an apartment in which he had lived at the Hotel America, "a super-funky midtown hotel that was the kind of place Lenny Bruce, say, stayed in." He himself often had problems with the name given:
|I went through a period of paranoia about it. I mean, every time I saw that word - and it's everywhere - I related it to myself. The country's problems were my problems. I think that if I weren't called Paul America it would have been easier for me to register in hotels.
America has seemingly become a gay icon, mainly for his performance in the title role of Warhol's, My Hustler. After My Hustler, America appeared in several other Warhol films from 1965: the unreleased sequels, My Hustler: In Apartment and My Hustler: Ingrid, and also Dan Williams's silent film Harold Stevenson, in which America, Gerard Malanga, Stevenson, Sedgwick, and others converse and drink wine while posing photogenically on a couch in a New York hotel suite. Another four-minute silent portrait of Paul America, shot on the beach during the making of My Hustler, had been found in the "long version" of that film, in the edited montage by Dan Williams that was added to the sixty-six-minute film in 1967.
Later years and death[edit]
Also, that same year, after a brief stint in the U.S. Army, America obtained legal assistance and convinced Warhol to reimburse him retroactively for his role in the by-then commercially-successful My Hustler. He reportedly received around $1,000 in several installments.
America also starred alongside Edie Sedgwick in John Palmer and David Weisman's film Ciao! Manhattan (1972), filmed from 1967 to 1971. His role in the film was severely diminished when he was imprisoned in Michigan on drug-related charges. America tried to contact Warhol for the last time in 1982.
On October 19, 1982, Paul America was hit by a car and killed while walking home from a dental appointment in Ormond Beach, Florida.

Box 1
I. Basic knowledge and concepts
All nurses should understand the scientific principles and underpinnings of the relationship between individuals or populations, and the environment (including the work environment). This understanding includes the basic mechanisms and pathways of exposure to environmental health hazards, basic prevention and control strategies, the interdisciplinary nature of effective interventions, and the role of research.
II. Assessment and referral
All nurses should be able to successfully complete an environmental health history, recognize potential environmental hazards and sentinel illnesses, and make appropriate referrals for conditions with probable environmental etiologies. An essential component of this is the ability to access and provide information to patients and communities, and to locate referral sources.
III. Advocacy, ethics, and risk communication
All nurses should be able to demonstrate knowledge of the role of advocacy (case and class), ethics, and risk communication in patient care and community intervention with respect to the potential adverse effects of the environment on health.
IV. Legislation and regulation
All nurses should understand the policy framework and major pieces of legislation and regulations related to environmental health.
teams. For effective teamwork, the educational preparation of all health professionals—nurses, physicians, and allied health professionals—need to place a greater emphasis on skills needed for interprofessional collaboration, such as negotiation, critical thinking, and mutual problem solving. In addition, there must be opportunities for interdisciplinary interaction throughout professional education and clinical practice, and existing barriers to interdisciplinary practice must be removed.
Interventions in environmental health problems often require nurses and other health care professionals to assume the roles of advocate, activist, and policy planner on behalf of an individual patient or population of patients. Patient advocacy, bringing a patient's concerns to the attention of the physician within the health care setting, is familiar to most, if not all, nurses. However, advocacy that goes beyond the confines of the health care system is a new kind of activity for many nurses, who may feel ill equipped for translating research and practice issues into health policy terms.

Somali MPs killed in hotel suicide attack
Islamist gunmen have stormed a hotel close to Somalia's presidential palace and killed at least 32 people, including six MPs.
The BBC's Mohammed Olad Hassan in Mogadishu says the men were disguised as government soldiers.
They approached the Muna hotel, opened fire on a guard, then one of them blew himself up inside the building.
Sheik Ali Mohamud Rage from the al-Shabab Islamist militia said its "special forces" were behind the raid.
"Start Quote
End Quote Idowu Olabode Peculiar Nigeria
The AU should declare a state of emergency and appoint someone to rule until all militants are destroyed"
The hotel attack comes on the second day of heavy fighting between al-Shabab and troops of the transitional government, who are backed by the African Union (AU).
Our correspondent says the Muna hotel is popular with government officials, because it is in a government-controlled area and security was seen as tight.
Deputy Prime Minister Abdirahman Ibbi told the BBC Somali Service that the suicide attacker had blown himself up using a hand grenade.
As well as the six MPs, five government officials and 21 civilians were also killed.
Maj Barigye Bahoku, spokesman for the African Union peacekeepers, said an 11-year-old shoe-shine boy and a woman selling tea in front of the hotel were among the dead.
An MP at the Muna hotel told a BBC reporter that there were "dead bodies all over" and the scene was a "massacre".
He said the gun battle at the hotel had lasted about an hour.
"They rained gunfire on everybody. Nobody stood a chance. I was lucky because they aimed at me but I jumped out of the window and survived," hotel employee Adan Mohamed told the AFP news agency.
Mark Schneider, International Crisis Group
Al-Shabab is estimated to control a significant portion of the country - the government is assumed to hold something of the order of 20%.
In recent weeks, the African Union mission there, Amisom, supporting the government, was expected to be beefed up by some additional Ugandan and Burundian troops.
It may well be that al-Shabab decided that before those troops became firmly located, they would carry out this attack and demonstrate their continued ability to go after government, and civilian, soft targets anywhere in the country.
I think the government will not collapse. I think Amisom will not allow it to collapse. Several of these kinds of attacks on civilians have lost popular support for al-Shabab.
Al-Shabab has moved from a largely Somali organisation two years ago, to where now our reporting shows foreign jihadis control a significant part of the decision-making.
Mr Ibbi called the attack "shocking and brutal", especially given that it had happened during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
Al-Shabab launched a new offensive on Monday soon after its spokesman said the group was declaring a "massive war" on the AU force, describing its 6,000 peacekeepers as "invaders".
At least 40 other people have been killed in the fighting and more than 130 wounded, with shells being fired into residential areas, according to health officials.
The government controls only a few key areas of the capital.
The group said it carried out last month's deadly twin bombings in Uganda's capital during the football World Cup final.
They were in retaliation for Uganda's deployment of troops to Somalia with the African Union force, it said.
The AU has responded by saying it will send extra troops to bolster its force in Mogadishu.
Somalia has experienced almost constant conflict since the collapse of its central government in 1991.

Symbian Foundation shuts up (virtual) shop
The slow death of Symbian continues, with the 'Foundation announcing that come 17 December it's pulling the plug on its websites and online presence. Over the weekend the Symbian Foundation, online home of the recently-open-sourced operating system, broke the news and said it's taking the source code offline, to be made …
Marketing (hip/trendy/cool ? HTC?) beats quality product, yet again
I think my first Nokia was a 6210. A relative still has it.
My current Nokia is an E65, and in between have been various others.
My E65 has a few add-ons: TomTom, a movie player, Opera. Even VNC.
It all fits in a phone that looks and feels like a phone and whose battery lasts for days (as long as I don't enable 3G).
But other phones with different software are trendier. They may not be as good, but they sell more.
'Twas ever thus.
C'mon Orange, get the ZTE Blade available to your contract customers. At least that one doesn't cost much to be trendy.
I had an E65...
...and now have an HTC desire - and it's a world of difference. Finally the smart phone has arrived.
The latest nice touch - being able to turn the Desire into a WiFi hot-spot with a single press/click.
The screen on the E65 is simply too small for a smart phone - although I agree that I liked the slidey action. And the (Symbian?) OS was simply too confusing - especially compared to Android.
Frankly, is any company with branding like that ever likely to survive? Management OKing that corporate makeover were displaying that they lacked 'the right stuff' in a 10-feet tall neon sign nailed to the top of the Eiffel Tower.
Similarly, let's see how long it is before the UK ISP Be Unlimited disappears, leaving the O2 name to go it alone. Their site looks like an 11-year-old's first attempt at an eBay scam.
Symbian's best hope is bringing in a socialite like Paris Hilton to take over the day-to-day running of the company. And even that has doubts hanging over it, albeit lesser ones than the current Nokia yes men.
Sigh on and on
Psion spawned yet deprived Symbian of the oxygen it needed.
Deprived of oxygen, Nokia slowly killed it by feeding it the wrong formula as well.
Psion should have been Nokia, Blackberry and Apple combined as it had the attributes of all 3 companies. Sadly this was never going to happen as Psion was a British tech company.
Maybe its choice of wrong bed fellow in Motorola was the beginning of the end but you can't help but feel that Psion and Symbian should have been so much more. Yeah I know that Symbian is in gazzilions of mobiles but so what. It doesn't matter that your grandma's phone is easy to use, that isn't where the action is or will be.
Such a shame.
Does this mean that the Ovi Store is no more?
That my N97 will now go the way of my HTC TyTN and there'll be no software written for it anymore, as developers move on to Windows Phone 7, Blackberry OS, Android and iOS?
It's a shame to see Symbian go. It was a reasonably good OS with multitasking and cut and paste. Up to par with Windows Mobile 6.5 when it passed on, and was even better than iOS, and still is given that Symbian does true multitasking for almost all apps and iOS doesn't even do true multitasking most of the time.
RIP Symbian, along with Leslie Nielsen, you'll always be remembered.
Symbian isn't dead...
Don't be silly, Bill. This all represents just the continuing winding down of the Symbian Foundation. Symbian, the OS is alive and well and now back in Nokia's control away from committees and boards and such-like. Could well be the best thing that's happened to Symbian in a while.
symbian foundation "branding" anecdote
as soon-ex-symbianite, I remember the foundation branding announcements and, even more so, the internal practical jokes made about that amongst those of us ending up in Nokia's loving embrace.
Overwhelmingly popular suggestion for the foundation's mascot was a flying pig with yellow wings & lipstick. Honi soit ...
(Can we have a gravestone with some yellow on, please ?)
@Steve Litchfield(!)
"Symbian, the OS is alive and well and now back in Nokia's control away from committees and boards and such-like. Could well be the best thing that's happened to Symbian in a while."
Want to bet on it?
I'm the AC @ 11:32. Not only do I have a string of Nokia phones as long as my arm (mostly S60 ones) I'm also clued up enough to recognise your name from All About Symbian from when I used to care about these things. But these days I'm not a geek (honest), I just want a phone that works with a few useful extras, not a phone that's geeky or trendy (or unreliable or overpriced).
I am your target market. But I am due for a new phone soon (so long as it is *better* than my current one).
Tell readers why they should see a future with Symbian rather than with Android.
Tell readers why they should see a future with Symbian rather than Android when people such as TomTom long ago abandoned Symbian in favour of Windows Mobile. At least now TT have Android too (neither iPhone nor Windows Mobile are options for me, but TT have those options for others). (That'll be the TomTom that grew out of Psion, just like Symbian did, so if anyone knows who to back, it'll be them, right?)
If you don't want to state your case here, how about at Your Other Place if you prefer.
Better be quick though because that ZTE Blade looks real interesting for the money. And there'll be more, even from Nokia, if Meego means anything (But it won't, because it's Intel, and everything Intel touch turns to shot if it isn't x86).
one hand handset?
Save me chasing through all of the vendors of Android handsets that have keyboards and work with a single (left in my case) hand. Thanks.
I had an E65...
And I've just ordered, at zero cost as a contract upgrade from Orange, a ZTE Blade.
Sorry Steve, I did say you had a limited Window of opportunity, and as ZTE Blades are now available as upgrades to Orange contract customers (and I get this upgrade "free"), you and Nokia have missed this particular opportunity for me, and probably for many others.
Will you still be around next time folks need an upgrade?

I read with interest your thoughts and the comments made by others regarding a place for your portfolio.
I have had a website for years that I use as a portfolio – that has worked well for 10 or so years, but now that I am mostly retiring from paid photography (40 years is long enough) I expect I will remove that. I only use Facebook as a place to advertise and sell the photog equipment in my shop. I post my blog there also.
Regarding the blog. You and those that commented, must take this more serious than I do. I have never thought about resizing or doing anything else with the images I include with my words. I just make 'em 8×12 in photoshop and post.
I look forward to your choices as to a showcase for your photography. I expect your search will be a good lesson for many of us.

Yeah, it's been a few years now and Splitkick is closing up shop. Thanks to everyone who made the site what it was, from the writers to the readers. I hope that everyone who was a part of the site is able to go on to bigger and better things. Small websites at this point in time pretty much need some decent cashflow to get real visibility, and being that this was simply a hobby site, it was only the bits and bobs that we could contribute on a small scale. Basically, it was fun while it lasted.
If you've got a podcast consuming application, you probably don't need to know about this one, but in case you don't, Short Attention Gamer has moved over to http://sagcast.com and will continue in some form. We've started to do SAG LIVE where we'll podcast and play a mindless game at the same time on Twitch, so listeners can watch and comment in near realtime. If you have a podcast app that grabs our thing every week, you don't need to worry about it because you should be auto updated. If not, head over to the new place and subscribe again.
Otherwise, that's all she wrote. Thanks again everyone! We love you.
