Charles Krauthammer: Pink line over Damascus
The next day Jay Carney said precisely the opposite: "Red line" was intended and deliberate.
Which is it? Who knows? Perhaps Obama used the term last August to look tough, sound like a real world leader, never expecting that Syria would do something so crazy. He would have it both ways: sound decisive but never have to deliver.
Or perhaps he thought that Syria might actually use chemical weapons one day, at which point he would think of something.
So far he's thought of nothing. Instead he's backed himself into a corner: Be forced into a war he is firmly resolved to avoid, or lose credibility, which for a superpower on whose word relies the safety of a dozen allies is not just embarrassing but dangerous.
In his rambling news conference, Obama said that he needed certainty about the crossing of the red line to keep the "international community" behind him. This is absurd. The "international community" is a fiction, especially in Syria. Russia, Iran and Hezbollah are calling the shots.
Nor, he averred, could he act until he could be sure of everything down to the "chain of custody" of the sarin gas.
What is this? "CSI: Damascus"? It's a savage civil war. The antagonists don't exactly stand down for forensic sampling.
Some countries have real red lines. Israel has no real friends on either side of this regional Sunni-Shiite conflict, but it will not permit the alteration of its strategic military balance with Hezbollah, already brimming with 60,000 rockets aimed at Israel.
Everyone in the region knows that the transfer of chemical weapons to Hezbollah or the acquisition of the Fateh-110, with the accuracy and range to hit the heart of Tel Aviv, is a red line. Hence the punishing Israeli airstrikes around Damascus on advanced weaponry making its way to Hezbollah.
The risk to Israel is less a counterattack from Damascus than from Hezbollah. Bashar al-Assad doesn't need a new front with Israel. Syria remembers not just its thorough defeat at the hands of Israel in 1967 and 1973 but also its humiliation in the skies over the Bekaa Valley in 1982 when it challenged Israeli air dominance. In a two-day dogfight, Israel shot down 60 Syrian planes and lost none.
Israel's real concern is a Hezbollah attack. But Hezbollah has already stretched itself thin by sending fighters into Syria to save Assad. And it knows that war with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would be far more devastating than its 2006 war with the tepid and tentative Ehud Olmert.
Most important, Iran, Hezbollah's master, wants to keep Hezbollah's missile arsenal intact and in reserve for retaliation against - and thus deterrence of - a possible Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear program.
These are complicated, inherently risky calculations. But living in the midst of this cauldron, Israel has no choice. It must act.
America does have a choice. It can afford to stay out. And at this late date, it probably will.
Early in the war, before the rise of the jihadists to dominance within the Syrian opposition, intervention might have brought down Assad and produced a decent successor government friendly to the U.S. and non-belligerent to its neighbors.
Today our only hope seems to be supporting and arming Salim Idriss, the one rebel commander who speaks in moderate, tolerant tones. But he could easily turn, or could be overwhelmed by the jihadists. As they say in the Middle East, you don't buy allies here. It's strictly a rental.
Israel's successful strikes around Damascus show that a Western no-fly zone would not require a massive Libyan-style campaign to take out all Syrian air defenses. Syrian helicopters and planes could be grounded more simply with attacks on runways, depots and idle combat aircraft alone, carried out, if not by fighters, by cruise missile and other standoff weaponry.
But even that may be too much for a President who has assured his country that the tide of war is receding. At this late date, supporting proxies may be the only reasonable option left. It's perversely self-vindicating. Wait long enough, and all other options disappear. As do red lines.

Same way, I use the 3M synthetic steel wool 0000. Mainly using it on the heating elements because you can wrap it around it and get the back side. Amazing that a synthetic can scratch stainless steel. I'm now just using a sponge on the stainless.
I'm BIAB in stainless
I use the softest sponge and chamois leather...
One piece of malt completely stops the pumps impeller. Can't figure how the grain is getting out of the malt pipe. The mesh was tight to the sieve, and the sieve sit tight in the malt tube. I'm also careful when adding the malt to the pipe. It seems to get past the top sieve when it starts to rise. Yambor44 did you use your stitched cloth covers and if so how did they work. I'm thinking of making a pair. I wonder if the cloth when wrapped around the edge of the sieve creates a better seal. Was able to salvage the batch using the March pump. O.G. came in as expected but needed to mash longer to get complete conversion. Also, even though I vorlaufed the wort wasn't as clear as when circulating up as the BM does.

On a blazing hot day last September, the cast and crew of Adult Swim series Eagleheart were holed up inside a small stage tucked deep within the eastern San Fernando Valley. They were nearing the end of production for the show's second season, a grueling, six-week stretch of 12-hour workdays that often lasted late into the night. Throughout the morning and afternoon, they shot and reshot scenes from three different episodes. There was a chance that the team would be working on two more later that evening.
"This is the hardest job I've ever had and it's an 11-minute show," says Chris Elliott, who stars in the crime-fighting show as U.S. Marshal Chris Monsanto.
Maria Thayer, who plays fellow marshal Susie Wagner, mentions that she didn't realize how tired she was until the previous weekend, when she ate dinner in bed and fell asleep while watching Mad Men.
Though the hours are long and the physical demands are plenty while filming the action-comedy, no one is complaining. In fact, the excitement was thick both on and off the sets.
TV shows are always works in progress, but Eagleheart has had a steeper climb than most. In those last few days of filming, both the actors and the writers were convinced that these new episodes would be their best yet. After catching a few of the new episodes myself -- several were screened at Cinefamily on Tuesday night -- it's hard to disagree with them. The new season is filled with stronger characters, more beautifully absurd, action-based comedy and wilder adventures.
Eagleheart is oozing comedy credibility. It was created by former Late Night With Conan O'Brien writers Michael Koman and Andrew Weinberg and was produced by the chat show host's company, Conaco. Writer-director Jason Woliner directed the sketch comedy series Human Giant. Elliott, who plays the show's central character, is a comedy legend known for writing and performing on David Letterman's show. Thayer was in the cult favorite series Strangers With Candy. Co-star Brett Gelman, who plays Brett Mobley, has appeared in Funny or Die and voiced several characters on The Life and Times of Tim.
Hip names don't necessarily make a show, though, and Eagleheart went through a lot of changes before it even hit cable television.

December marks the end of the IYA
Stonehenge's stones align with the setting and rising Sun during solstices, hinting that it was built following astronomical principles, more than 5,000 years ago
Scientists will gather at the amazing megalithic monument that is Stonehenge, in the UK, to celebrate the advancements made in this field over the millennia. From a basic understanding of the world around us, to the first classifications of stars and planets, to various views on our place in the Universe, and finally to the deeper understanding of skies that we have today, all has taken place over a long time. The fitting grand finale for the IYA will include a number of attractions, including expert-led tours of the Neolithic monument, and free public astronomy exhibitions.
Stonehenge was chosen for its mysterious history and undecipherable purpose. The first signs of activity of what has been called the first European observatory date back more than 3,000 years ago, but the monument itself was constructed in small increments, lasting for more than one and a half millennia. Due to its rich history and significance, organizers believe that this location is more than suited for the IYA 2009 festivities, which will last from December 16, 2009 to January 3, 2010, save for December 25-26, 2009.
Its stones are famous for aligning with the rising Sun at the summer solstice, and with the place where the star sets during the winter solstice. They are also connected to the Moon, in the years when the celestial body's orbital tilt brings it to extreme northern and southern positions in the sky. All these correlations have been observed through numerous observations of possible alignments, conducted from within the monument itself at various occasions over the years.

DEFINITION of 'CRC'
The currency abbreviation for the Costa Rican colon. The CRC is subdivided into 100 centimos, which is similar to how a dollar is divided into 100 cents. Historically, the colon has had a peg-like relationship with the U.S. dollar, which is described as a crawling peg. This means the colon is allowed to float within a currency band with upper and lower limits determined by the U.S. dollar's value.
The Costa Rica colon was named after Christopher Columbus. In Spanish, Columbus is known as Cristobal Colon. In addition, the CRC is occasionally referred to as the peso, which was the name of the currency that preceded the colon.

Bridgeport Homes For Sale
Rich with history and built on the foundations of hard work and cultural diversity, Bridgeport is a melting pot-an old school Chicago neighborhood bordered by Stevenson Expressway (I-55) to the north, the Dan Ryan Expressway (I-90/I-94), Pershing Road to the south, and Ashland Avenue to the west.
While retaining its title as a historic family neighborhood, Bridgeport is now a hub of south side Chicago, the famous home of US Cellular Field, where the Chicago White Sox play ball.
Following a game at US Cellular Field, Parkside Café is the place to go for great American cuisine in Bridgeport; and if Italian is at the front of the mind, try Phil's Pizza on West 35th Street or Gio's Café and Deli on South Lowe Avenue. However, keeping with its rich history, Bridgeport also hosts a magnificent array of ethnic restaurants such as the Healthy Food Lithuanian Restaurant and Ed's Potsticker House.
In terms of retail, Bridgeport is not the neighborhood to visit for chain shopping; but it is the neighborhood for the individual. Notably, it hosts the sportswear store Grandstand Limited, which is a must-stop for all Sox fans. The uniqueness continues with stores such as Augustine's Authentic Spiritual Goods, which boasts perhaps the most obscure collection of occult books and tarot cards in Chicago. Augustine's adds the perfect air of mystery to any day in Bridgeport. Finally, for a taste of the history that Bridgeport carries with it, one can always visit Bridgeport Antiques on South Archer Avenue.
Bridgeport is, above all, a family neighborhood. Among its city blocks are several parks where parents and children gather to play baseball or soak up the summer sun. In July, Bridgeport also hosts the Southside Arts and Music Festival, one of Chicago's famous summer festivals. For the indoor-inclined, as the Arts and Music Festival would indicate, Bridgeport has a small, yet vibrant arts scene that finds a home in several art galleries throughout the neighborhood.
Bridgeport hosts some of the most unique, distinctive architecture in Chicago. From townhouses to condos, anyone can find the perfect home in Bridgeport. Bridgeport is an easily accessible neighborhood, particularly by car, as the neighborhood is bordered by two major expressways. The CTA Red and Orange lines both run through the neighborhood, as do four bus lines.

Have a MS hotfix ready to download via a link in my e-mail and have reached a stumbling block. A window pops up and asks me to "Select the folder where you want to unzip the files to" This is followed by "C:\" and my problem is, what to key in.

Global Agenda community received a survey recently that hinted at a change to the business model, and it looks like a decision has been made.
Hi-Rez founder and CEO Erez Goren tweeted the news just a short time ago: "Global Agenda going subscriptions free," and the information was followed up quickly with a forum post that began "Hi-Rez Studios announced today that Global Agenda is now 100% subscription free. Purchasers of Global Agenda can enjoy the game's full current content, including all current Player-vs-Player combat, Player-vs-Environment solo and co-op content, and Agency-vs- Agency seasons, without a monthly subscription payment now or in the future. Future content updates will be delivered via optional paid expansions."

probably a good plan on their part, really wasn't worth a subscription unless you were on one of the few agencies that stood a chance in AVA.

I am now tempted to purchase this game. The monthly subscription model did not feel right for what I would have got out of the game. Good call on this change.

Tempting...Waiting on APB right. If that wasn't right around the corner I'd definitely would get this now..Damn, Steam is having a great sale as well. Bioshock 2 for only 14.99 x.x sweet.

Well its good they finally realized that no one would pay. Good for them.
Now lets see some more content and we'll really be rolling along.

Just bought it, as well as the STO Collector's Edition. Good deals even if I don't know when I'll play either.
Posted: Jun 24th 2010 9:03PM GRT said
Isn't it more accurate to say its staying subscription free? I though they were still in their "We're going to start charging a sub fee once we get this damned thing working right." phase.
Posted: Jun 24th 2010 10:16PM swarmofcats said
Yeah, so far they've only accepted "pre-subs" meaning nobody has been charged any fees besides the box price. This is pretty big news to me as I was one of the pre-subscribers waiting for them to start the fees...Reply
I really love this. I might not have kept my sub active for more than a couple months but now I can get back into the game whenever I want. Wooooo for GW style free MMOGs!!

Awesome. Completely awesome. I voted for this in the last survey, didn't think they would decide so fast.
Posted: Jun 24th 2010 9:38PM Zaetal said
This is the way to go, the sub model was completely not worth it considering what it bought, maybe I'll reinstall it now. So long as the rest of their sandstorm update isn't something we have to pay extra for.

I smell micro transaction. A store to buy heavy weapons and gear.
Posted: Jun 24th 2010 9:55PM Xii said
Nice to hear. I'm not that surprised, really. Giving people 80% of the game for free than charging for the other 20% probably wouldn't get that many customers. I know I personally wasn't planning to subscribe.
Hope they keep improving it.

Latest Epitaxy Stories
When a team of University of Illinois engineers set out to grow nanowires of a compound semiconductor on top of a sheet of graphene, they did not expect to discover a new paradigm of epitaxy.
Tiny wires could help engineers realize high-performance solar cells and other electronics, according to University of Illinois researchers.
Scientists from the Georgia Institute of Technology have for the first time provided details of their "confinement controlled sublimation" technique for growing high-quality layers of epitaxial graphene on silicon carbide wafers.
In an advance that could open new avenues for solar cells, lasers, metamaterials and more, researchers at the University of Illinois have demonstrated the first optoelectronically active 3-D photonic crystal.

Former UFC welterweight champion Pat Miletich
joined the Sherdog Radio
Network's "Rewind" show to discuss GSP's win, his dominance in
the UFC and more.
On St. Pierre returning after knee surgery: "I think he
shocked a lot of people. Obviously the fans of Georges St. Pierre
and his camp felt that he was stronger and better than he was
before the injury, but a lot of people had doubts. I honestly was,
like many people, a little concerned about him coming off, what was
it, 18, 19 months off with that ACL injury? And going up against a
guy like Carlos Condit, who's dangerous to anybody on the planet.
Being able to come out and -- I mean, he big brothered the hell out
of Carlos. He was so much stronger, so much bigger and was very
crisp. He controlled the fight pretty much almost from start to
On St. Pierre's condition: "The kid's a horse. He's
physically developed so much. He looks so much bigger than he did
before the injury even. It's amazing he can make 170."
On what Condit might have done differently: "If you can't
march St. Pierre backwards a little bit, you're really going to
have a lot of trouble because those transitions off his striking,
into his takedowns, are so smooth. He'll get you to commit and
think that you're in a boxing match and the next thing you know,
you're getting taken down and vice versa. That's something that
Carlos did not take advantage of, and obviously standing in front
of somebody as opposed to sitting and watching it on TV are two
different things … but he definitely didn't commit. He was not
committing on three-, four-, five-punch combinations, where
probably that's what you're going to land -- your third or fourth
or fifth shot, and get things rolling for yourself, and he
definitely did not do that."
On defending St. Pierre's wrestling: "You have to dictate
when Georges is going to shoot on you. If you don't dictate that
and he dictates it, it's easier for him to take you down. If I can
dictate when Georges or any other fighter is going to shoot on me
by putting pressure on him at certain times -- when I'm putting
pressure on somebody and lighting them up with punches, I know
they're going to shoot and so then I'm prepared for it. That's
something that Carlos didn't do. That's something they needed to
remind him of, is just go out, bend your knees, get low and when
you start unloading on him -- you've got to unload, number one, but
when you start unloading on him, you have to be prepared to change
levels and drop with him so that he doesn't get his takedowns."
On the kick Condit landed that stunned St. Pierre: "He
really didn't load up for that kick that landed. That was a pretty
slick move. He was throwing a hand combo and really slid his head
off to the right hard and kind of disappeared out of sight on
Georges and threw that left leg up high. Very deceptive -- that's a
deceptive kick. There's a few guys out there that are flexible and
lanky enough to do that sort of thing. It's a really dangerous
kick, but something like that -- it didn't look like he even threw
it with 100-percent power at all, but Georges didn't see it at all,
and that's why he got dropped with it. That's the beauty of the
deception: You can land shots that you don't throw 100 percent that
can put somebody away."
On St. Pierre's standup and how it sets up his takedowns:
"Nobody has been able to, from the very beginning, control the
feint and fake game and get Georges out of his rhythm and mess with
his head. From there, everything unravels. He controls the fight,
he controls the setups, he controls the pace and you're screwed.
That's something that only comes, honestly, with sparring with
incredible strikers. That's the only way you're going to do it, and
to do that, you're going to donate blood for three or four years
before you figure it out."

This Clash provides frequent occasion for awe as Perseus and company, men in rebellion against the tyranny of Olympus, embark on a tour of hodgepodge theme-park antiquity, rendered in button-by-button detail: I especially liked the warped ferry to Hades, with oarsman Charon replaced by an outboard motor.
Transporter director Louis Leterrier is sure-footed when battling Gorgons and giant scorpions, but he muddles the comic-grotesque opportunity of the Stygian Witches. His shopworn "hearty camaraderie" scenes and LOTR helicopter sweeps over exotic terrain don't do much to sway one to the cause of humanity, and the hasty romance will make no heart palpitate.
It's not surprising to learn that Clash was converted to 3-D as an afterthought; nothing onscreen justifies wearing dumb glasses until a certifiably stunning climax, which has you barnstorming, on the back of Pegasus, above and through the streets of a Kraken-besieged city.

DEFINITION of 'Series 23'
An exam offered by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) for financial professionals seeking to become general securities principals or sales supervisors. The Series 23 can only be taken once the Series 9/10 exams have been passed.

A score of 70% or better is required for passing.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Series 23'

A general securities principal has the authority to manage mutual funds, variable annuities and other pooled asset vehicles within FINRA and SEC-authorized firms.

Egypt vigilantes hang 2 thieves by feet in public
Morsi is facing an onslaught of challenges, from the police strikes to an increasing number of violent sexual attacks on women to mounting diesel shortages that have crippled daily life for millions in Egypt.
And although vigilante killings are not frequent in Egypt, there have been similar attacks in the past two years.
In 2012 in northern Sharqiya province, police said relatives of a man who was killed when muggers tried to steal his car lynched one of the thieves. They then burned his body while it hung from a light pole.
Another case that year was in the Nile Delta province of Mansoura, where relatives of a victim took justice into their own hands and lynched two suspected killers.
Anger at Morsi was on display again Sunday, when protesters took their demands to the Brotherhood's doorstep. Hundreds clashed with police who fired tear gas at the crowd outside of the Islamist group's Cairo headquarters.
The crowd was responding to an assault on journalists, who claimed they were attacked by Brotherhood members Saturday evening during coverage of a meeting.
The journalists said that after a group of activists sprayed anti-Brotherhood graffiti on the ground outside the group's Cairo headquarters, the Brotherhood guards attacked with sticks and chains.
Brotherhood spokesman Mahmoud Ghozlan said in a statement that guards outside the building were provoked and insulted by the activists and journalists.
Many of the group's offices were attacked across the country in December during violent protests over the drafting of the constitution.
Dozens of journalists rallied outside their syndicate in the capital Cairo against the incident.
Diaa Rashwan, the newly elected head of the syndicate who replaced a figure considered by most journalists as pro-Brotherhood, said he would file a lawsuit against the Brotherhood spokesman for suggesting that journalists had incited the violence.
The opposition party Al-Dustor, led by Nobel laureate Mohamed ElBaradei, blamed the Brotherhood's leadership for allegedly encouraging "militias" loyal to the group to join the fight.
There were clashes on Saturday during protests against Morsi and the Brotherhood during the president's trip to the impoverished governorate of Sohag. The presidency on Sunday denied that opposition protesters had tried to storm the hall where Morsi had been speaking, despite video that showed the attempt.

Great people, nice clean truck.. Thank you for everything...
Hard to find at night
The experience was great and they were extremely helpful! I would recommend them to anyone!
I only wish the Truck had cruise control, With me being a right below knee amputee it would have been easier.
No need to improve...they went above and beyond in helping me with a trailer hitch...and the right size of trailer for what I needed to move.
The facility was very nice fairly priced. Excellent customer service. Refunded my deposit monthly fee, as I ended up not needing it after all.
