A Couple Of Streaks End, But One ContinuesPosted by on October 26, 2009 – 11:57 am
The Vikings loss to Pittsburgh on Sunday ended their streak of 7 consecutive regular season games won, dating back to the 2008 season finale against the Giants. The Vikings now sit at 6-1 as they head for another highly-anticipated matchup with border and division rival Green Bay.
Part of the problem in Sunday's regular season win streak-ending loss to Pittsburgh was a bunch of penalties – 11 to be exact. Way too many for a team as disciplined and solid as the Vikings. Going into Sunday's game, the Vikings were the 2nd-least penalized team in the league. One of Sunday's 11 penalties was called on an unlikely target – G Steve Hutchinson. The 6-time Pro Bowler was flagged for a false start on a goofy-looking play, and that penalty ended a 26-game penalty-less streak that dated back to September of 2007.
But while the regular season win streak and Hutch's penalty streak were ended on Sunday, the Vikings defense continued their impressive streak of not allowing a 100-yard rusher. The Vikings defense has now gone 30 consecutive games with allowing an opposing RB to hit the century mark, the league's longest active streak and a streak that will be put to the test again next week in Green Bay. Packers RB Ryan Grant is the last RB to rush for 100 yards against the Vikings, and he did it in Lambeau in 2007.

Penalties were huge. Some of the calls were VARY questionable. the tight end tripping call. the defensive delay of game call. take that stupid tripping call away and we score and the fumble never happens. Why was Loadholt the only man downfield to try to stop the return? where are all of our speedsters? I don;t care if you are late but you need to be there.

I agree! we made tons of mistakes and the bad calls made it worse.

You know what streak I would like to see started? Playing to win. I am so sick of this playing to not lose play calling. Look at the offense, when they want to score, they do. When they get a lead, they sit on it, figuring, "oh well we have the lead why score more points?" Look at the patriots, 59-0. Some call it running up the score, but like the patriots coach says, his team plays for 60 minutes, if the other team doesn't, that's not their problem. Coach Childress, start playing to win, maybe after getting a 35 point lead you can think about sitting on the ball.

Everyone is missing the real story here. The Vikings went into Heinz field- which is about as lousy a facility as Giant stadium, played sub par as far as penalties (with referee assistance) and still nearly won the the game. I'm very confident that the Vikings have the tools to demolish ANY team if they play their best four quarters. Forget about the Steelers and the East Coast media hype machine. They looked pathetic yesterday on offense and not for lack of trying. The Steelers got real lucky yesterday- turnovers are the name of the game.

To Disappointed: Childress never "sat on the lead" because we barely lead the whole game. The Vikes did not play it conservative like they did against the Packers on MNF or on some possessions in recent weeks. They marched down the field twice on the vaunted Steeler defense and ended up getting unlikely turnovers on plays that were far from conservative. I understand your frustration at the loss but the play calling wasn't the problem, nor was Childress.

yes, i think the refs got paid off, there was no tripping on that play. that was a 14 point swing, and the vikes would of won. the refs gave the steelers the win, it's too bad, but the head ref will need to justify it on nfl network as a blown call. thats too bad that the refs put the game in their hand

Did anyone else notice this? It was Dugan that was called on that HIGHLY questionable tripping call. And it was Dugan who FLATTENED that Back Judge during Percy's K/O return. Wasn't it the Back Judge that called the tripping on Dugan? If it was, then could the NFL look at the hit on the judge as 'retaliation'? I hope it wasn't retaliation, because I absolutely LOVED the hit. And it did look like the judge was in the wrong place at the wrong time. It was like…"What goes around, comes around". Know what I mean?

Does anyone remember the super bowl where the Steelers played Seattle. I thought I was watching it all over again where the refs gave the Steelers the game on fanthom calls, it was the same yesterday, the Steelers got all the calls and the breaks, however, with a team like the Steelers you cannot have turnovers and a bunch of penalties and expect to beat them and the refs, overall, the team especially the secondary played relatively well. We out gained the Steelers in total yards but we beat ourselves in penalties and turnovers, fix them and we can beat anybody, go Vikings beat Green Bay!!!!!!!!!

Ya the calls were very suspect. True on childress playing not to lose…but the big thing that shocked me was Farve threw 51 times!!! Thats waaaayyy too much and late in that game after AP crushed Gay, he should have been right back in and been given MORE handoffs against a tired defense…..we could have ran and tired to pound it in on the last drive, and if we didn't, at least kick for the tie. Childress dropped the game again with poor poor playcalling….and this isn't the first game this season.
By Lou Betts Jr on Oct 26, 2009 | Reply
Valhala: I totally agree with you. After that fantastic head busting run by AP all of the momentum was in the Vikings favor. The TV annoucers providing coverage of that game on FOX referred to AP as the "beast" after that play. With less than two minutes to play the beast (AP) should have been on the field. Why take the best player out of the game within two minutes to play? Man, I am telling you the Vikings coaches really know how to suck the momentum right out of the game. It was painful to see AP standing on the sidelines wearing no helmet.

so i watch AD run over a steeler, finally gets taken down and he growls like a man possessed, why take him out? REALLY!!! give AD the ball when hes like this and the win belongs to the Vikings……take him out? cmon man!!!
By Viking-ology on Oct 26, 2009 | Reply
It was a great game, but it would have been better if we won. I agree with the previous posts on AP. We were already in field goal range- no need for a screen. AP should have run until either we scored, or kicked a field goal. Oh well… Next game Green Bay. Get back on track- GO VIKES!!
By vikescot on Oct 26, 2009 | Reply
The V I K E ' S played hard and were cheated by the REFS!!!!! I agree AD was needed in the backfield in last drive but I liked that they tried a screen rather than 3 runs up the gut and then miss the field goal attempt !!!!!!Alla 1998 playoff game w/ Billick calling plays…..I do not understand that they pull AD like that either and only assume coaches think he is tired and a rested Chester is better choice,I disagree w/ that but REFS got what they wanted and a Steeler win !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Enough monday morning quarterbacking. There are questionable calls in every game, some more questionable than others. The fact of the matter is when you are playing an away game, mistakes need to be kept to a minimum. While the defense played lights out, the special teams and offense committed too many errors. Penalty's, shanked punts and turnovers are all correctable with practice and preparation. We need to get ready for the next game and not dwell on the past. Green Bay here we come.

To all who are wondering about A.P. at the end of the game. if you guys can't tell I'am pretty sure he has breathing issues. when they take him out he is gasping for air holding his chest. So i dont think it was chillie who took him out.

You can't burn the clock up with run plays at the end of the game. You have to pass and work the side lines unless you have someone down field in the middle. That strip was a result of not blocking properly. You HAVE to stay with the defender and in front of him. That pass was a little high but any pass that hits the receiver's hands SHOULD be caught. These are NFL players and I have seen high school players make that same catch!

Judge refuses early release for driver in fatal tire crash
Updated On: Oct 21 2013 03:02:59 PM EDT
A truck driver sentenced to six months in prison for his role in a fatal crash won't be released early.
Judge Robert Ruehlman refused Paul Lallier's request on Monday, saying that he thought long and hard before the original sentence and that "I still think it's a fair sentence."
Lallier was behind the wheel of a truck pulling a trailer when a wheel detached and bounced into oncoming traffic on Interstate 75 in Lockland.
The tire struck a minivan, killing the driver, Dylan Morrison, 22.
Lallier pleaded guilty to lesser charges in July.

How Many Vietnam Veterans Are Still Alive?
The approximate percentage of Vietnam-era veterans who are still alive in 2013 is 75.
Some online estimates suggest that the number is much more stark: Only one-third of Vietnam veterans are still alive, these Web sites say, and the survivors are going fast.
But as Patrick S. Brady made clear in an article for The VVA Veteran, the magazine of the Vietnam Veterans of America, the reality is more reassuring. The rumor illustrates the danger of using incompatible numbers from different sources.
It was apparently based on an estimate that 800,000 Vietnam-era veterans had died by 2000. That number was reasonable: About 9.2 million Americans served in the military during the Vietnam era (1964-75), so that would mean about 8 percent of them had died and 92 percent were still alive.

Microsoft to Australian government: our kit has no back doors
Microsoft has told an Australian Parliamentary Committee its cloud services and software contain no back doors. The issue arose last year in a committee of Australia's Senate, which like the US body of the same name is a house of review for legislation initiated in the House of Representatives. During a November 2013 meeting of …
No need for a back door
Why would there need to be a specific back door anyway - unpublished vulns are as effective as a backdoor and when found in use are easily deniable as a security bug. A specifically coded back door has no plausible deniability and would seriously damage your reputation when found.
A question to be asked that would leave less wriggle room, "do you share information on unpatched vulnerabilities with intelligence agencies?" I suggest an answer to this question would appear much more evasive :)
Re: No need for a back door
Right. The front door is wide open.
Re: No need for a back door
No back doors are necessary when working for the NSA and the law is your friend...
[snip]Data located in Australia but owned or operated by a US company could be accessed under a Patriot Act request, even if this violates National Privacy Principles, a legal expert has warned.[/snip]
Re: No need for a back door
Microsoft agreed with the above cited (thanks Vimes) legal opinion, in Europe;
EU cloud data can be secretly accessed by US authorities
US-owned companies bound by Patriot Act, says Microsoft
4th July 2011
Microsoft is set to launch a new cloud service next week. It said it will allocate its customers a region where their information will be physically stored, but said it could not guarantee that it would tell EU customers' details if US authorities sought access to their data.
"In a limited number of circumstances, Microsoft may need to disclose data without your prior consent, including as needed to satisfy legal requirements, or to protect the rights or property of Microsoft or others (including the enforcement of agreements or policies governing the use of the service)," Microsoft said in its online data storage services' privacy policy.
"As a general rule, customer data will not be transferred to data centers outside that region," Microsoft said in an explanation about geographic boundaries for its new service.
"There are, however, some limited circumstances where customer data might be accessed by Microsoft personnel or subcontractors from outside the specified region (eg, for technical support, troubleshooting, or in response to a valid legal subpoena)," the explanation said.
Do people have no memories at all?
This has happened before. Microsoft representatives swore in court that there was no NSA back door shortly before the back door was public knowledge: http://www.theforbiddenknowledge.com/hardtruth/nsa_backdoor_windows.htm
Now we get another statement that there is no back door. Microsoft representatives were found guilty of lying under oath in federal court during the the abuse of monopoly trials. Microsoft can easily send a representative to court who does not know about any back doors. Even if Microsoft wanted to be honest, they can be required to lie for national security. The question is not if there is a back door, but how many are there, and who is able to exploit them.
Re: Do people have no memories at all?
The article you point at actually states "Researchers are divided about whether the NSA key could be intended to let US government users of Windows run classified crypto systems on their machines or whether it is intended to open up anyone's and everyone's Windows computer to intelligence gathering techniques deployed by NSA's burgeoning corps of "information warriors"."
So yes there was an NSAKEY label used within ADVAPI.DLL, however its actual use case and function has not been identified. As per TFA it could be "intended to let US government users of Windows run classified crypto systems on their machines" ∴ not a back-door
Re: Do people have no memories at all?
Not to mention, do you think they would have used "NSA" as a secret key for the super secret back door? They - contrary to some people's beliefs - are not absolute morons.
Re: Do people have no memories at all?
But if you were Microsoft, and if there was an explanation for the key that was innocent, and people were suggesting that your software had a direct tap for the NSA, and that suggestion was harming your business, wouldn't you explain what it was and not just say nothing about it and waffle on instead using words that don't rule it out?
Re: Do people have no memories at all?
"They - contrary to some people's beliefs - are not absolute morons."
"They" might not be, as a collective, but a chain is only as strong as it's weakest link. It only takes one low level code monkey to slip up and all your eggs are on the floor, never to be stuffed back up the arse of a chicken.
Re: Do people have no memories at all? @Sir Runcible Spoon
...It only takes one low level code monkey to slip up...
Like within the parts of the tech industry that make routers for example?
And that was only fixed after people complained about it. How do you complain about systems you don't even know exist, much less how they operate?
Re: Do people have no memories at all?
Not to mention, do you think they would have used "NSA" as a secret key for the super secret back door?
Hmm, could have a couple of possible explanations:
1 - forgotten to rename the variable
2 - hiding in plain sight principle
Don't tell you haven't been wondering why there was a variable called "NSA" in that code AT ALL?
I agree with the thread OP that MS may have either sent someone with not enough knowledge, or may be acting under orders to keep their mouth shut.
Re: Do people have no memories at all?
Meanwhile, 15 years ago ..
The long, strong arm of the NSA (July 27, 1998)
FORT MEADE, Maryland (IDG) -- Back in the days of the cold war, Washington insiders used to joke that NSA stood for "No Such Agency." The government denied the very existence of this group, which is dedicated to intercepting and decoding foreign communications.
That was then. Today the National Security Agency is well known, and spends a lot of time leaning on software, switch and router vendors, pushing them to re-tool their products. The agency's goal: to ensure that the government has access to encrypted data.
It's gotten to the point where no vendor hip to the NSA's power will even start building products without checking in with Fort Meade first. This includes even that supposed ruler of the software universe, Microsoft Corp. "It's inevitable that you design products with specific [encryption] algorithms and key lengths in mind," said Ira Rubenstein, Microsoft attorney and a top lieutenant to Bill Gates. By his own account, Rubenstein acts as a "filter" between the NSA and Microsoft's design teams in Redmond, Wash. "Any time that you're developing a new product, you will be working closely with the NSA," he noted.
Re: Do people have no memories at all?
They are however quite possibly that arrogant, vis a vis their badge for their latest spysat. And code monkeys sometimes think they're that clever.
Good one guys.
Ha ha. Ha ha. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha . . . stop it, you're killing me.
Very Trusting
The responses from the Department of Parliamentary Services seem to suggest a very trusting attitude and an approach that says a threat doesn't exist if no-one has told them about it.
I didn't get the sense that they are pro-actively policing their networks, apart from slapping the usual appliances on them.
More importantly who has sidedoor access to NSA intelligence?
As has been revealed the NSA is mostly concerned with industrial espionage. Certain well-connected people must be making a fortune from all this data.
I just can't help it....
"They would say that, wouldn't they?"
Aren't the Australian spooks working with the American spooks together with the others who are part of the UKUSA agreement that Duncan Campbell explained to us yonks ago?
Re: UKUSA
Documents leaked by Snowden there are things that the US won't even share with partners like the UK, let alone Australia (remember the NOFORN designation on some of the documents?).
Part of the information revealed under this designation told us that the US could end up spying on the UK even without the knowledge or consent of the UK authorities, and despite prior agreements that this would not happen.
You can bet that the US is doing the same with Australia too even though they are supposed to be in the 'Five eyes' club.
Stop using MS software then
Then they can stop worrying about the NSA or others.
They could write their own system from scratch or they could use an alternative supplier, there must be loads because so many people hate MS that alternatives would have a massive customer base waiting.
However, I suspect that compromising any new system would be trivial - at the design stage or later. I also suspect that any other system in common use is/was as easy to compromise as anything MS supply. After all, the data storage can be compromised, any encryption used will be a standard encryption system and is not specific to a particular system. If no encryption is used then any system will be wide open obviously.
Re: Stop using MS software then
There isn't a backdoor because one isn't needed to access customer data.
The fact that Microsoft is a US company and subject to US law is a far bigger threat than anything contained within the code.
The existance - or lack thereof - of a backdoor is just a red herring aimed at distracting us from the laws in place within the US that give the authorities the right to demand access to data.
Of course there's a back door
Of course there's a back door - it's the front door: Windows Update. Simply send a special update to specific machines.
No need for MS to confess to a feature that's always been there in the open. Even if they are not actually complicit in this, it would not be too hard to add a man in the middle additional service in the deployment tubes or mess around with what Akamai actually send down to a machine.
Pick your conspiracy.
Re: Of course there's a back door
That's why you operate your own update infrastructure and don't let your workstation talk to the outside world.
Trust but Verify -- from Ronald Reagan, US President
First of all, the Australian Parliament do not deserve any reprieve from NSA snooping if they use Microsoft servers as their back end. No sane organization or body should even consider a technology platform that has proven extremely vulnerable and unreliable as Microsoft Windows by every credible technology security organization, every Financial Stock Exchange, International banking system, The US NASA Space Agency and Dept. of Defense departments, as well as several cities and countries in the European (EU), countries in South America, especially Brazil and many other entities.
Furthermore, how does the Australian government know " with any certainty" that Windows does not have back doors, unless Microsoft provides the AU Government with the Windows "source code" which the government can then have their experts carefully examine, and if found "fairly secure", then compile the provided code themselves into a working Operating System (OS), much as can be easily done by professions with Linux or any of the BSD UNIX-like OS.
Unfortunately, many Australian Parliamentarians, like other politicians and business executives around the world are enamoured by Bill Gates' Wealth and the "legend" of Microsoft, and therefore accede all logical thinking and critical scrutiny practices of such matters as technology decisions to their love fest of fame and fortune.
No Backdoors.
Another one of the Great Lies. It's right up there with;
The cheque is in the mail.
I'll mow the lawns later.
I won't cum in your mouth.
Well as someone who has seen the code there were "points of entry" in the kernel of NT. Were these deliberate or simply exploitable bugs? But there were so many that one might ask if there were just a few too many for it to be accidental ..... I mean after all these were some of the best programmers in the world .... really ? .... that many bugs in core kernel code .... ? I suppose the question is whether the exploitable "bugs" were just "plausible deniability"! Don't ask .... don't tell.
One would have to assume that not a lot is different now. Keep in mind as MS do military work they are bound to obey the rules of the OS Act even it means not being entirely truthful.
If the situation ever arose that NSA provided an order to place a backdoor, would you be obliged to report to a senate committee similar to this that no such backdoor exists?
yeah right ....
ms fail ......
I'm in the bridge business
And I've been doing very nicely out of this, thank you.
The only thing we know for certain, is that we know nothing for certain.

In the early '90s, the Orb's "Little Fluffy Clouds" took cheeky vocal samples and mushroomed them into something stranger and spacier. While rhythmically rooted in house music, Alex Paterson and crew dosed it with stoned dub and U.K. prog, even goofing on Pink Floyd album covers. This dizzying mixture of LSD consciousness and ecstasy swing served as a gateway drug into the world of electronic music. And with the introduction of Thomas Fehlmann into the fold, the Orb became weirder and higher.
But the morning after was brutal; by the turn of the century, the group wound up being irrelevant in the ever-mutating electronic field. Okie Dokie, its first album for Germany's Kompakt imprint after a few shimmering singles, shows the Orb tastefully deemphasizing the goofiness and adapting to the label's schaffel and pop styling. Piano and strings swirl around "Captain Korma," while "Kompania" has an ambiance composed of globs (OK, glorbs) of harp and guitar stretched like taffy. Who knew the Orb could age gracefully?

Buena Vista Deli Restaurant Review: "Deli" is a misnomer for this French bakery/café just outside the Design District. Chef/owner Claude Postel actually co-owns two other foodie destinations on the same block (the older Buena Vista Bistro and a wine/handmade chocolate shop). Postel comes from a family that, seven generations back, was chocolatier to French royalty, and was himself a pâtissier in Montréal for years. A traditional petit dejeuner (good strong coffee, a basket of fresh breads, homemade jelly, perhaps some fresh-squeezed o.j.) is a good way to start the day, but substantial supplements like Spanish or chorizo/potato omelets also beckon. And if the bakery cases hold a Paris-Brest (hazelnut praline cream between layers of airy yet moist choux pastry), don't let anyone tell you it isn't an appropriate breakfast sandwich. At lunch, sandwiches on artisanal French-style breads rule. It's hard to choose, but those featuring Buena Vista Bistro's house-made duck pâté, rustic pâté de campagne, and more unusual (in America) rillettes prevail. Though the wine list isn't one of Miami's most impressive, this is one of the few small eateries in town where house plonk is entirely satisfying.

Presidential candidates John McCain, Mitt Romney, and Rudy Giuliani reported their fundraising totals on Monday.
Romney, former Governor of Massachusetts is leading the charge among Republicans. He reported raising 23 million dollars for his presidential campaign.
The front runner in the polls, Giuliani, said his first-quarter donations totaled 15 million dollars. He picked up ten million in March alone.
Senator John McCain reported raising 12 and a half million dollars. His campaign acknowledged it had "hoped to do better."
Fundraising totals are seen as a crucial test for the candidates. They are widely viewed as a barometer on their relative
political health.

Joint Ukraine-NATO military exercise starts in Bulgaria
Maj. Gen. Richard C. Longo, left, deputy commander of U.S. Army Europe, and Brig. Gen. Krasimir Kanev, deputy commander of the Bulgarian Land Forces, review troops, including those from Ukraine, during the opening ceremony of exercise Saber Guardian, Friday, March 21, 2014, at the Novo Selo Training Area, Bulgaria.
KAISERSLAUTERN, Germany — More than a dozen Ukrainian military officers joined U.S. and NATO troops in a two-week military exercise that started Friday in Bulgaria as Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a bill finalizing his country's annexation of Crimea from Ukraine.
Planning for the exercise, which involves roughly 700 troops from 12 nations, has been in the works for about a year, said Jesse Granger, a spokesman for U.S. Army Europe.
"It just so happens that the execution date coincided with recent events," he said.
Dubbed Saber Guardian, the exercise at the Novo Selo training facility in eastern Bulgaria includes personnel from Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belgium, Bulgaria, Georgia, Moldova, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Turkey, the United States, representatives from NATO and 15 Ukrainian staff officers. The inclusion of the Ukrainian officers was planned before the outbreak of tensions between Russia and Ukraine over Crimea, Granger said.
The exercise involves peace support operations and humanitarian assistance and is aimed at senior-level staff, Granger said. The movement of units that would conduct those operations is done by computer simulation.
Host nation Bulgaria's eastern border on the Black Sea is roughly 260 miles from the Crimean port city of Sevastopol, where pro-Russian self-defense forces on Wednesday stormed a Ukrainian naval base following a Russian-backed referendum to separate Crimea from Ukraine. Putin finalized Russia's annexation of Crimea on Friday as the U.S. threatened to increase sanctions and the European Union considered imposing penalties of its own on Moscow.
"While some countries threaten stability in this very region, our peaceful, humanitarian-focused exercise will help bring stability to this geopolitically significant part of the world," Maj. Gen. Richard Longo, USAREUR's deputy commander, said in a news release announcing the start of the exercise.

This isn´t just hypocrisy, it is evil opportunism. Some moneyed entity such as the Koch brothers need to lay a few million bucks on the table to expose and depose this poseur. He is riding on the backs of his investors to garner and claim even more lucre for his cache. This is not to "help" candidates. His "investment" has nothing to do with promoting green energy. It is a gambit to drag "green" fools into his web thus building his own personal portfolio.

I think Mr Steyer is working hand in hand with Obama to ruin US and enable other countries to rise to the top. He and Al Gore want us to survive on solar and windmills while it´s fine for other countries to use coal and oil. Just part of a very evil plan and Mr Steyer gets rich off of it as well.

Let´s test Tom Steyer to see if he is indeed a worthy candidate for eco-canonization by removing all government subsidies for green energy. If it has to stand on its own, will Mr. Steyer still prefer it over what he until recently seemed to love, coal?I have a feeling that his devotion to green energy would wane if its true ROI were the only thing keeping it in the game.

Hedge fund operators are the ultimate crony capitalists. As part of investing in lower quality coal, he had to be sure that higher quality coal from Wyoming wouldn´t be exported. I´d wager he lobbied hard to get Obama to block a coal loading station in Oregon to prenent export to China. I´d even wager he hindered Australian coal as well. Those measures increased the return on Malaysian coal by eliminating cleaner competitors.

This reminds of the conspiracy in our history, between GM, Goodyear, an oil company to destroy the American trolley system so the three confederates could: sell/get rich in business of buses, tires and gas.It also reminds of some Islamic countries that are using "democracy" as a short term vehicle, a means to an end they intend to abandon. Ie elections. Obama does this too-uses our institutions, etc to benefit himself, Democrats, then burns/destroys the bridge to keep others from doing the same. An inverse example is the way Obama intentionally allows illegals in. It will give the left long term advantage to the point border control will not even be a matter of concern anymore. Modus: abuse/neglect border control until it breaks the whole system in place.

It would seem that Steyer is just a throwback to the robber barons of the 19th century. Those like J.P. Morgan, Andrew Carnegie, J.D. Rockefeller, etc. He will do just about anything to increase his own personal wealth and his power position. And he uses his money rip of the taxpaying public´s money via the subsidies paid to him by the government. All in all, a truly disgusting type of person. And here I thought that this country had enacted laws that were supposed to contain and/or get rid of the old style robber barons. Seem as if Steyer has found a new way to do it.

DALLAS -- Mark Sullivan wonders who in the world would build a high-speed rail station in southeast Dallas."It's not the greatest neighborhood," said Sullivan, a salesman at an ATC Freightliner truck dealership near Interstate 20 and Bonnie View Road, not far from where Dallas bleeds into the smaller Lancaster, Hudgins and Wilmer. It's one of the few areas of Dallas that isn't built out, and though it sports a fair amount of natural greenery, it's not far from some of the city's roughest streets.But unlikely as it may seem, this area has become a flashpoint in the Dallas-Fort Worth region's debate over where bullet trains traveling 220 mph or more ought to be allowed to pick up and drop off riders.During two years of debate over where to build high-speed rail stations, leaders from across North Texas say, they have been led to believe that whatever plan was approved would involve construction of three -- one in downtown Dallas, one somewhere in the middle of the region (possibly Arlington or near Dallas/Fort Worth Airport) and one in downtown Fort Worth.But officials at the Regional Transportation Council said during a recent meeting that a private team that includes Central Japan Railway -- a group that has offered to begin service from Dallas to Houston by 2020, with no public funds -- is not necessarily interested in connecting with the downtown districts. Instead, it wants to connect suburb to suburb, several officials briefed on the project say.One option under study for high-speed rail service is a railroad track known as the Teague line, which is owned by Fort Worth-based BNSF Railway Co. and runs roughly parallel to Interstate 45 through southeast Dallas on its way to the city's downtown. The Teague line is a few miles from the area of southeast Dallas where officials plan to build a championship golf course and possibly lure the annual Byron Nelson tournament.By connecting areas outside the population centers, the private team operating as Texas Central High Speed Railway Llc., which is collaborating with Central Japan Railway on the technology it wants to use on the line, can control parking and station-related development. Those elements help make the venture profitable, so public dollars aren't needed, RTC members said.But many Fort Worth leaders, who for two years have said they prefer to have the region's first leg of high-speed rail terminate at the centrally located DFW Airport, are concerned they will be left off the bullet train grid entirely."When you put it at DFW Airport, you put it in the middle of the Metroplex, where we've put $10 billion or more building highways, the DFW Connector, North Tarrant Express, Sam Rayburn Tollway. The support infrastructure is already in place," said Tarrant County Commissioner Gary Fickes, chairman of the advocacy group Texas High Speed Rail and Transportation Corp. "It's at the center of 7 million people, and that's a whole lot better than being out on the fringe."But the company, willing to put up its own money for the service, may not be interested in connecting to the public transportation network.Even so, the company does want to work with regional leaders to help the Dallas-to-Houston line fit in with the region's vision, which includes three stations, said Travis Kelly, Texas Central High Speed Railway director."We want to be consistent with regional policy, but at the same time, we think that most people are going to drive their cars to the station, at least in the initial years," Kelly said.Kelly stressed that his group isn't ready to disclose details of its plan, including possible station locations. And he said the group wants to find locations that are acceptable to business and elected leaders.A federal environmental review of the Dallas-to-Houston corridor is under way, and Texas Central Railway officials have said they were seeking up to $10 billion in investments to build the line.On Thursday morning, the North Central Texas Council of Governments is scheduled to hold a committee meeting in Arlington, where officials will provide updates on possible station locations. The get-together will take place at 11 a.m. before the regularly scheduled Regional Transportation Council meeting.Trains vs. planesSo does it make sense for a business to build high-speed rail in southeast Dallas, a low-income area where few prospective customers live?Perhaps not at first blush. But two University of Texas at Arlington researchers say it's helpful to think about Dallas Love Field, an airport that has survived for decades in the shadow of the much larger DFW Airport by offering customers an alternative for short-haul trips to such cities as Houston and Austin.In October 2014, the Wright Amendment, which restricts flights at Love Field, will expire, and those researchers believe that Southwest Airlines and maybe other providers will begin offering more long-distance trips out of Love Field -- to destinations such as Los Angeles and New York.Southwest declined to discuss its plans, spokesman Chris Mainz said.But if Southwest changes its approach, the UT Arlington researchers say, it could mean fewer flights to in-state cities such as Houston -- creating a demand that can be filled by high-speed rail, even if customers must drive to southeast Dallas to catch a train.Although airlines fought efforts to build high-speed rail in Texas as far back as the 1980s, they are less likely to oppose bullet trains today because the aviation business model is changing in favor of longer-distance flights, said UT Arlington researchers Stephen Mattingly and Antonio Massidda.Mattingly, a civil engineering professor, and Massidda, a faculty researcher, have spent two years analyzing the impact of high-speed rail on aviation in Europe -- and the impact of Amtrak's Acela Express train service on aviation in the Northeastern United States.They say that in areas where train rides last two hours or less, high-speed rail can capture up to 90 percent of aviation's city-to-city business.Conservatively, they say, even if a high-speed rail connection from Dallas to Houston captured only 60 percent of market share, that would amount to 1.6 million passengers per year."Over time, as passengers get accustomed to this service, the market share will likely reach the same levels observed elsewhere as long as the station access time is the same or less than the competing airports," Mattingly said.However, the UT Arlington researchers stressed that connecting high-speed rail to DFW Airport would be the best way to maximize train ridership and would also enable railways and airlines to work together on schedules and combine ticket sales."The introduction of high-speed rail in Texas should be planned by taking into account the aviation system," Mattingly said.But not everyone agrees that high-speed rail is the answer. Michael Boyd, a Colorado-based aviation consultant, said other factors are signaling a decline in short city-to-city routes, including economic conditions and the availability of technology that makes it possible for workers to do more tasks at home rather than travel.Also, he said Texans haven't yet thought through the "political issues," such as how many intermediate stops to allow for a train."You think for one minute that the fine folks in Corsicana, or Huntsville or Buffalo and their elected officials will sit back and be happy to see this contraption race by? No, they are going to want the train to stop and pick up all six people who would use it," Boyd said."The time and distance to slow and stop a 200-mph train and then get up to speed again will torpedo the alleged time savings," he added.Wright debate, againAmong those who believe that high-speed rail is in Texas' future, a rift has emerged that reminds some of the years-long battle between Fort Worth and Dallas over the Wright Amendment.The possibility of a political rift has caught the attention of the Fort Worth and Dallas mayors, who said they want to work it out."I'm looking for a major piece of research that looks at who is likely to use it, what they want to use it for and what the pricing scenario is," Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings said. "My itch is: 'Who's going to use this? Do they want to go to Dallas? Houston? Is this a businessperson? Is this a leisure traveler?' I want to make sure the customers of Dallas-Fort Worth get a voice at this table."Fort Worth Mayor Betsy Price said she plans to broach the issue informally with Rawlings at one of their upcoming get-togethers.Price's general belief is that high-speed rail should be "accessible to everyone in the whole region.""It should serve the center of the Metroplex ...," she said. "We're talking in conceptual plans right now. It's a very complex issue. This could potentially be as big of an issue as the formation of DFW Airport.""I think people for a long time thought high-speed rail was some kind of pipe dream," she added, "and now it has grown legs."Gordon Dickson,817-390-7796Twitter: @gdickson
