MADISON, WISCONSIN, September 29, 2013 — By day, he writes about habeas corpus. By night, he plays in a rock band and cooks up a mean paella.
UC-Berkley grad Anthony Gregory is a Research Fellow at the Independent Institute in California. Focusing on civil liberties and libertarian theory, he recently released a book entitled The Power of Habeas Corpus in America.

In addition to research and writing, Gregory coordinates the student programs at the Institute, which include internships and summer seminars.
Joseph S. Diedrich: When and how did you become a libertarian? An anarchist?
Anthony Gregory: My family had an impact on me. My dad was a small-government Republican, but he voted for McGovern against Nixon because he didn't like war. He explained to me problems with programs most conservatives support, like massive border control and drug laws. My mom came from Korea, and so I also heard lots of stories about the horrors of communism. I first heard of "libertarians" when I was seven, watching Ron Paul on TV as a Libertarian presidential candidate in 1988.
I became an anarchist in college, after 9/11. I saw how terribly the state managed its "legitimate" function of national-defense, a function that entails the worst rights violations the government commits. I also started thinking a lot differently about police. Reading history and philosophical arguments reinforced my conversion to radical anti-statism.

JSD: You recently authored a book entitled The Power of Habeas Corpus in America. While researching and writing, did anything surprise you?
AG: The history of is much rockier than most expect. Habeas corpus, as a judicial power, is itself tainted by the vagaries of politics and corruption. It arose largely as a way for judges to flex their own authority over others, and has been used to bring slaves back to their masters and centralize political power.
Many of the courts that first used it were royal courts, mainly to bring forth prisoners and scrutinize the authority of lower judges. In that way, habeas corpus was used for top-down judicial centralization.
In my book, I argue that habeas corpus definitely has a good side. But judges, politicians, and legislatures have worked together to restrain a lot of its potential to do good and have helped it do bad.
SEE RELATED: Libertarian America: A Conversation with Austin Petersen
JSD: What period in U.S. history was the most damaging to personal freedom?
AG: The Civil War was the most awful period for Americans while it lasted, including for most slaves who endured multiple sources of oppression. Internationally, U.S. entry into World War I might have had the worst international consequences, but World War II was more destructive to foreign and domestic lives. Truman is my least favorite president, but FDR, Wilson, Lincoln, and many others deserve honorary mention. We've had many presidents who killed hundreds of thousands of people.
JSD: What current political issue have libertarians tended to ignore or not care about as much as they should?
AG: Perhaps prisons. For a long time, libertarians and many others were too quiet about war, immigration, and police abuses, but these areas are getting more attention. Overall, the prison system is probably the most inhumane and unjust enterprise within the United States.
Prisons are the ultimate deprivation of liberty. There are a lot of people in prison who certainly don't belong there, either because their offenses were victimless crimes or because their offenses were not proportional to prison. The prisons in the U.S. are, by and large, inhumane. Solitary confinement, which holds about 100,000 Americans at any given time, is regarded by much of the world as torture. In a more humane world, the fact that we have over two million people behind bars would come up in every presidential campaign.
The power to imprison is the power to destroy someone's liberty entirely.
JSD: Many individuals skeptical of libertarianism question how things like art and education would function in a free society. How do you think libertarian society would produce art and culture?
AG: Artists would make the art, as they do regardless of what the state does short of murdering artists like under the Taliban or Pol Pot. Art would flourish, of course. Culture also exists free of state violence, and will overall tend to evolve to be more civilized more quickly without government. Since it comprises the actions and memories of humanity, we each have a role to play in trying to move culture in a better direction. That will continue to happen, and a free society would require a broadly freedom-loving culture anyway. It's possible for things to go sour under statelessness, but there are some limits to the evils, and we libertarians and all humanitarian folk can do our part to address injustices outside of the state.
JSD: If all public schools were eliminated tomorrow, what would happen?
AG: Education is a natural process. It requires curiosity and people willing to teach. So many folks are willing and eager to teach. The demand for real education won't go away. With modern technology, communities, businesses, organizations, families, co-ops, and social groups would begin quickly filling the gap and before long children would have the opportunity to learn according to their own needs and wishes.
Young people would go into vocational training, and the basics would be there for anyone who wanted to learn. When kids learn in schools today, it is almost always despite the institutional nature, not because of it. Kids who can learn in the schools that exist now would continue to learn, but better, and millions would be liberated. It would be one of the greatest triumphs for liberty and humanity in history.
Parents, unfortunately, support this system, and there's a long-term cultural change that needs to happen before children are treated more humanely.
JSD: Do you think libertarians should participate in politics by voting or running for office?
AG: I can see the case voting on propositions and initiatives. I think voting for politicians vying for political office is usually a waste at best. I don't recommend that good people run for office. They should seek honest work.
JSD: Then what can the average person do in their everyday normal life in order to further the cause of liberty?
AG: Educate themselves and speak out against injustice, spreading the word as persuasively as they can to those around them.
JSD: What are some personal goals for the future?
AG: I want to pursue higher academics (and by that, I mean grad school), have kids with my soon-to-be wife, write more books on a variety of subjects, work on neglected libertarian theory, record some albums, be in a play, and travel.

Leahy: General Electric of Rutland Gains $23 Million Navy Contract For Development Of Super Hornet Fighter Engines
December 4, 2012
(TUESDAY, December 4) – Senator Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) Tuesday announced that General Electric Aviation of Rutland is gaining a new U.S. Navy contract for $23,699,511 for the development and construction of fighter engines for F/A-18E/F aircraft. The contract, which is being apportioned among several regional GE plants, totals more than $197 million to build 52 engines. GE Rutland receives 12 percent of the total award.
As a senior member of the Senate Appropriations Committee and its Defense Subcommittee, Senator Leahy has long been a champion in the defense budget and procurement process for GE Aviation in Rutland. The Rutland plant is known for producing high-quality jet engine blades and vanes for a variety of aircraft. Leahy has often cited the Rutland plant as an example of a successful company doing good work in Vermont and for Vermont. The Rutland plant employs more than 1000 Vermonters and pays competitive hourly wages, giving a significant boost to Rutland's and Vermont's economy.
Leahy said, "GE Rutland and its workforce continue to prove their skill and success as a forward-leaning manufacturer and as a corporate citizen of Vermont. This contract reaffirms the value of GE Rutland's products to our national defense and the confidence that the Navy has in their work."
"GE Aviation is proud of the jet engine airfoils produced in our Rutland plant for the F414, a workhorse engine for the U.S. Navy," said Jean Lydon-Rodgers, President and CEO of GE Aviation Military Systems. "We also appreciate the working relationship we enjoy with Sen. Leahy and his team as we make continued investments in our Rutland operations."

Girish & Seema
(19 November 2008)
Hello All!!! This is Girish from Bangalore.I am here, to share with you all my Shaadi success story. First and Foremost I would like to thank Shaadi.com for making me find my partner for life Phewww!!!It was really a marathon 2 and half years for me to find my life partner. I have gone through so much of frustrating moments in these 2 and half years in search of my life partner. It reached a stage wherein; I happened to lose interest in the search of my life partner.But my friends and relatives consoled me saying that, "If its taking time means, there is someone really special who will enter your life". And I bet, I really will treasure the words my friends and relatives told me. So here we go about my story: I was a frequent vistor to Shaadi.com. I used to browse Shaadi.com almost everydayafer I come back from office. In the June end week, I was browsing shaadi and I came across a really cute and decent looking profile. I knew she had just enrolled into Shaadi.com; as previously I have never come across her profile. I went through her profile and It really attracted me twoards the profile. Intially I was hesitant in expressing my interest in the profile as she is professionaly qualified. Then daily used to visit her profile and I used to point the mouse pointer to the express interest, but never used to do it. On July 2nd, again I browsed her profile and that day I closed my eyes and thought for a while, and in my mind i said" I will regret if I dont express interest in her profile". So I just made a firm mind and pressed the "Express Interest" Button. As usual, I never got an reply from her also for almost 10 days. I just lost hopes. One fine day, I get a message from her saying she was busy with her office work and that's why it took her time in accepting my interest. We exchanged our horoscopes through email. It took time to find the real pace of interaction. Almost a month after, we started chatting through messenger, speaking general topics. In meantime the horoscope match was done and it matched well. We decided to meet. I was feeling really jittery initially as to how to speak to a professional qualified person. I made a bit of homework in home, reciting words to speak to her. We met on Aug 9th and believe me, she really made me feel really comfortable and the interaction went on for almost 5 hours that day. So we met for the second time after that and clarified all the doubts we had. After interacting with her for many a times, I was really comfortable and satisfied person that she is the perfect match for me. I proposed to her on Aug 31st and she accepted the same. Later, we put the word across to our parents and they fixed the rest. She is a really gem of a girl.The main thing what I liked about her is honesty and determination. I thank god for making me come across such a gem of a girl. Our marriage is fixed on Dec 19th. Thanks once again to Shaadi.com. Regards, Girish
Wedding DATE :
19th Dec, 2008

Time to Fight A New War
by Diana West
Today's column is for all those currently wrestling with looming doubts about the pointlessness of the U.S. mission in Afghanistan and clubbing those doubts down with the much-mentioned perils of leaving Afghanistan to "the terrorists." In short, it's about how to "lose" Afghanistan and win the war.
And what war would that be? Since 9/11, the answer to this question has eluded our leaders, civilian and military, but it remains the missing link to a cogent U.S. foreign policy.
It is not, as our presidents vaguely invoke, a war against "terrorism," "radicalism" or "extremism"; and it is not, as the current hearts-and-minds-obsessed Afghanistan commander calls it, "a struggle to gain the support of the (Afghan) people." It is something more specific than presidents describe, and it is something larger than the outlines of Iraq or Afghanistan.
The war that has fallen to our generation is to halt the spread of Islamic law (Sharia) in the West, whether driven by the explosive belts of violent jihad, the morality-laundering of petro-dollars or decisive demographic shifts.
This mission demands a new line of battle around the West itself, one supported by a multilevel strategy in which the purpose of military action is not to nation-build in the Islamic world, but to nation-save in the Western one.
Secure the borders, for starters, something "war president" George W. Bush should have done but never did. Eliminate the nuclear capabilities of jihadist nations such as Iran, another thing George W. Bush should have done but never did -- Pakistan's, too. Destroy jihadist actors, camps and havens wherever and whenever needed (the strategy in place and never executed by Bill Clinton in the run-up to 9/11). But not by basing, supplying and supporting a military colossus in Islamic, landlocked Central Asia. It is time, as Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely (USA ret.) first told me last April, to "let Afghanistan go." It is not in our interests to civilize it.
But we would "lose face" in leaving Afghanistan, supporters say. News flash: We lose face every day in Afghanistan executing a costly, impotent policy based on massive state bribery, the public devaluation of American life ("population protection" trumps "force protection"), and deference to Islamic custom, as when women Marines are ordered to wind head scarves under their helmets for missions. And the point of this mass American supplication? To win a local popularity contest in which the only competition is the Taliban. Earth to military geniuses: The people are already with you, or they're against you.
In other words, it's time to toss the policy of standing up Sharia states such as Iraq and Afghanistan onto that ash heap of history. It's time to shore up liberty in the West, which, while we are stretched and distracted by Eastern adventures, is currently contracting in its accommodations of Sharia, a legal system best described as sacralized totalitarianism.
Such a war -- to block Sharia in the West -- requires more than military solutions. For starters, it requires an unflinching assessment of Sharia's incompatibility with the U.S. Constitution, and legal bars to Sharia-compliant petro-dollars now flowing into banking and business centers, into universities and media. It absolutely requires weaning ourselves from Islamic oil -- what a concept -- and drilling far and widely for our own.
Halting the spread of Islamic law in the democratic West requires halting Islamic immigration, something I've written before. But there's another aspect to consider. On examining a photo of armed Taliban on an Afghan hill, it occurred to me that these men and others like them can't hurt us from their hilltops. That is, what happens in Afghanistan stays in Afghanistan -- or Pakistan or Saudi Arabia -- if we (duh) impose wartime restrictions on travel from and to Sharia states.
But that cramps our freedom, critics will say. Well, so does standing in line to de-clothe and show our toothpaste because Hani Hanjour might be on the plane. Funny kind of "freedom" we're now used to. And funny kind of war we now fight to protect it -- a war for Sharia states abroad while a growing state of Sharia shrinks freedom at home.
The faster we extricate our military from the Islamic world, the faster we can figure out how to fight the real war, the Sharia war on the West.
Diana West is a journalist and columnist. Her book, The Death of the Grown Up: How America's Arrested Development is Bringing Down Western Civilization was reviewed by Steven Emerson, who said it is "a must-read for anyone who wants to understand why ... many in the West are apologetic when confronted with the excesses of radical Islam and what we need to do to win the War on terror. This is a phenomenal book that will truly alter the way you view society."
Peace and Love in Egypt : The Presidential Race is On
by Gadi Adelman
The three top Egyptian Presidential candidates exude the peace the Arab Spring has brought us.
Fotouh: "Israel is an enemy."
Morsi: "Jihad is our path and death in the name of Allah is our goal".
Moussa: "Most of our people consider it [Israel] an enemy".
When Egypt's election commission published the final list of those who will be allowed to run in the first presidential election since the ousting of President Hosni Mubarak last year, the list ended up with 13 names out of 23 that had initially applied.Two high-profile candidates have been barred, Omar Suleiman, the former vice president and spy chief under Hosni Mubarak and Khairat al-Shater, the main nominee of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Suleiman was deemed ineligible because he had not submitted enough endorsing signatures to qualify. Shater was disqualified because he had been imprisoned and Egyptian law bans criminal convicts from running for president. After Shater was disqualified the Muslim Brotherhood nominated their backup, Mohamed Morsi, the Chairman of the Freedom and Justice Party and former member of the Muslim Brotherhood's Guidance Bureau.
Two others of the Egyptian presidential front-runners faced off during the country's first televised presidential debate on Thursday. The hot topics were religion, Islamic law and Israel.
Amr Moussa, shown left, faced off against Abdel Fotouh and the statements these two made and the points they agreed on give us a view to Egypt's as well as the Middle East's future. Moussa is the one-time Arab League chief and former foreign minister under Hosni Mubarak. Moussa is considered to be a moderate, and many experts see him as the favorite for Egyptians. If this guy is the "moderate" we need not look for a radical.
The Islamist candidate, Abdul Moneim Aboul Fotouh is a former leading figure in the Muslim Brotherhood who many fear will impose an Islamic state should he be elected. Fotouh was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood's Guidance Bureau from 1987 - 2009. In 2011 he formally quit all political work with the Muslim Brotherhood and resigned from its membership, when he decided to run for president.
Do I really need to explain what will come of Egypt after these elections? I have been writing and speaking out on this since before the previous President, Hosni Mubarak was ousted.
During the debate, both candidates agreed that the constitution should be guided by Sharia, or Islamic law. That, in and of itself, should be enough to make any one shudder who understands Sharia.
At one point Moussa asked Fotouh about religious freedom and Christianity, as reported by Egypt's Ahram online,
"You once said in a televised interview that Muslims can convert to Christianity and vice versa... is this still your position?"
Abul-Fotouh, taken aback, waffled at first and then stressed the importance of freedom of belief and of a moderate understanding of Islam. He, however, fought back and attempted to corner Moussa and paint him as too secular.
Moussa was twice asked: "What do you mean by the general principles of Sharia?" After equivocating, the one-time Arab League chief insisted that the general principles of Islamic Sharia law, as they existed in the 1971 constitution, should be applied.
"We want to know your vision about applying Sharia law, especially as you are now backed by radical Islamist groups; and in politics nothing is for free, there must be a deal and we need to know," Moussa shot back.
It seems like a comedy and if it weren't true it might actually be laughable. One radical candidate accusing the other of being "now backed by radical Islamist groups".
When it comes to Israel and the peace treaty that has been in place with Egypt since 1979 they agree wholeheartedly,
Abul-Fotouh, shown right, stated, "Israel is an enemy which is built on occupation, owns 200 nuclear warheads, doesn't respect international decisions and attacks religious symbols. The majority of Egyptians are enemies of Israel. The agreement with Israel should be revised and the sections which are against our interests should be removed immediately and only what's in our interests should stay."
He also called Israel a "racist state" during an interview Saturday with the private Egyptian CBC satellite station; he said he had opposed the treaty since its implementation.
"I still view the peace treaty as a national security threat to Egypt, and it must be revised."
What's more, he said that al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden's assassination by US Special Forces was an act of "state terrorism". Yeah, I can already see the love this guy has for the U.S.
Moussa has also been a critic of Israel both as foreign minister and Arab League chief and agreed that most Egyptians view the Jewish state as an enemy,
"We have lots of disagreements. Most of our people consider it an enemy, but the responsibility of the president is to deal with such things responsibly and not run after hot-headed slogans."
According to Ahram online the highlight of the show was when Moussa described Iran as an Arab country, Fotouh stated,
"Our relationship with Iran is based on our own independence. I am not against a relationship with Iran provided it doesn't proselytize the Shia faith in Egypt and likewise we shouldn't try to spread the Sunni faith there."
Moussa had a short answer, wrong, but short,
"I am against a war with Iran. Iran is an Arab country! And we have to listen and talk."
Mr. Moussa, far be it for me to correct you, a former foreign minister of Egypt and Secretary General of the League of Arab States, but… Iran is not an Arab country and if you really want to tick off an Iranian, tell him he is.
The third front runner for the President of Egypt is no different from the other two when it comes to Sharia and Israel. Mohamed Morsi, left, as I mentioned earlier, was the Chairman of the Freedom and Justice Party and former member of the Muslim Brotherhood's Guidance Bureau.
The NY Times wrote of him back in April,
Mr. Morsi has campaigned explicitly both as a more conservative Islamist and as a loyal executor of Mr. Shater's plans.
In a speech before Cairo University students just this past Saturday night, Morsi stated such loving lines; I have to admit that I myself cannot choose between these three gems. He stated,
"The Koran is our constitution, the Prophet is our leader, jihad is our path and death in the name of Allah is our goal."
"Today Egypt is close as never before to the triumph of Islam at all the state levels."
"Today we can establish Sharia law because our nation will acquire well-being only with Islam and Sharia. The Muslim Brothers and the Freedom and Justice Party will be the conductors of these goals."
The first round of Egypt's presidential election is scheduled for May 23 and 24. The president will be elected to a four-year term.
There are a total of 13 candidates for the President of Egypt and we all know how lucky 13 is, but the 3 above are the frontrunners and more than likely one of them will emerge the victor.
But I guess we really have nothing to worry about, our administration knows what they are doing when it comes to Egypt. Let's not forget that Obama bypassed Congress and gave them over $1.5 billion in aid of your tax dollars just this past March.
As was reported by the Washington Post on March 22,
The Obama administration has decided to resume funding for Egypt's military and will bypass congressional requirements that U.S. officials certify the country's progress toward democracy, according to Capitol Hill aides.
This year's allocation of aid — more than $1.5 billion, with the bulk earmarked for the military — was withheld amid the country's crackdown on pro-democracy groups, including several U.S.-based organizations with close ties to political parties in Washington.
Yes, we're in good hands. What could possibly go wrong? After all, 13 is such a lucky number.

In the last Dex Diary, Ellen Feder wrote movingly about the experience of just doing what your OB tells you to do. Here I write about the most difficult part of the dex work — the part for which I will forever be grateful to Ellen.
Every time I've contemplated writing this entry for the Dex Diaries, I've had a particular movie scene suddenly flash into my mind. It's the scene from Groundhog Day where Bill Murray has decided he can't take living the same day over and over again, and so he might as well try killing himself. And, he decides, quite rationally, he might as well try to take the groundhog Punxsutawney Phil with him.
So he grabs a pick-up truck and he props Phil on his lap to be holding the steering wheel. Then Murray aims the truck so that, when it starts, it will drive right off a cliff. Just before he hits the gas, Murray says to Phil, in a preternaturally calm voice, "Don't drive angry."
I finally realized why that scene — at least that scene as I remember it — keeps coming to me. Throughout the dex ordeal, the American Journal of Bioethics (AJOB) was my Groundhog Day. Day after day, I'd wake up to another round of the AJOB gang coming after me and mine, trying to shut us up and shut us down. Like Murray's character in the movie, I'd try to explain to people outside of Bioethics what we were experiencing, but I'd sound like a complete nutcase. Surely the American Journal of Bioethics could not be as unethical as I was describing!

Networking & Wireless | News
As part of a 1:1 iPad initiative, Millis Public Schools in Massachusetts is rolling out a new WiFi network that will support dozens of devices in classrooms and up to 150 in hallways simultaneously.
The program is currently in the pilot stage but will ramp up to support students and teachers across the entire district. The network, provided by Xirrus, will support hundreds of devices without requiring access points to be installed in each classroom--a money-saving consideration for the district.
But as Grace Magley, director of educational technology for Millis PS, explained, saving on costs wasn't the only consideration. The new network had to be one that would meet the district's heavy technical requirements for dense concentrations of tablet devices.
"We have always used technology in our district to help leverage teaching and learning programs," Magley said in a statement released this week. "We were looking to embrace a personalized learning initiative and needed to upgrade to a wireless solution that could support our impending wireless saturation requirements of 30 devices in every classroom, in addition to the devices brought from home. Our hallways have up to 150 devices online at any given time, so it was crucial for us to find a wireless network that could handle a 1:1 initiative while also saving us money over time. Of the five wireless vendors we researched, Xirrus was the only one that could offer a solid and reliable solution to support the density demands we required without having to place an AP in every classroom."
The district's iPad initiative will eventually impact about 1,700 faculty members and students. The Millis PS serves more than 1,500 students in one high school, one middle school, an elementary school, and a preschool. It's proposed fiscal 2012 budget is a little more than $12 million.

Congressional Republicans Also Seek End to Cuts
By Harold Hutchison
The Obama Administration's attempt to retire the A-10 Thunderbolt II close-air support aircraft, better known as the Warthog, has been under fire. Now, the fight has come to a new level as Senators Kelly Ayotte (R-NH), Saxby Chambliss (R-GA), and John McCain (R-AZ) have taken the fight for the A-10 public.
J-15 Makes Its Debut
By Harold Hutchison
The ChiComs have lifted the curtain to reveal their new naval fighter, a knockoff of the Russian Su-33 that has been designated the J-15. The plane was revealed as Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel was visiting China.
General Carl E. Mundy, Jr., the 30th Commandant, was a man of character, a mentor, and a good friend I've known since 1994. On April 2 he died peacefully at home, surrounded by family, having struggled with a rare and aggressive form of cancer, Merkel cell carcinoma. His email updates describing the ups and downs of what was happening since his diagnosis last June reflected serenity and even a bit of humor as "Team Mundy" closed ranks.
Veteran Suicides Climbing
By Harold Hutchison
America is losing 23 veterans a day to suicide, and the problems have been getting worse in recent years. To put that number in perspective, the number per day translate to over 8300 veterans a year committing suicide.
According to a report by Breitbart News, the stats are staggering. The suicide rate has climbed by over 30% among active-duty military since 2008. A report covering suicides in 2011 noted that 301 suicides occurred among active-duty troops that year.
Questions Raised After Second Mass Shooting in Five Years
By Harold Hutchison
Does a ban on carrying guns on military bases that has been in place for over 20 years need to be re-considered? That question is being debated in the wake of the second mass shooting at Fort Hood in five years, and the second mass shooting at a military installation in less than a year.
Gun-Grabbers Seek To Use Dead Soldiers to Back Their Agenda
By Harold Hutchison
In the wake of the tragic mass shooting at Fort Hood that left four dead, including the shooter, gun-grabbers are already seeking to push new gun-control measures, using the incident to revive an agenda that stalled at the federal level last year.
According to media reports, anti-Second Amendment politicians like Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) are trying to revive last year's push for so-called "universal background checks." The legislation failed in 2013 after failing to overcome a filibuster.
In the video below, members of our Armed Forces speak out about the culture of fear and intimidation in the US military that is forcing Christian soldiers to hide their faith.
The attacks on Christianity in the military have caused the Bible to be banned from military hospitals, chaplains to be deemed non-essential, prayer to be banned from military funerals and soldiers to be dismissed for voicing their Christian beliefs about homosexual marriage. For a more exhaustive list of attacks on Christian religious freedoms click bit.ly/17P69Eq (prepared by frc.org)
Junior commanding officers and their crews continue the legacies of World War II motor torpedo boats (PT) aboard U.S. Navy coastal patrol ships (PC) and U.S. Coast Guard patrol boats (WPB) in the 5th Fleet area of responsibility.
Of yesterday's shooting victims, all were military, and none were armed and able to defend themselves, nor each other, from a gun-wielding, murdering lunatic who apparently didn't get the memo about the Base being a "Gun-Free Zone!"
As soon as the suspect was confronted by military police, he committed suicide, typical MO for active murderers.
Four Killed, Fourteen Wounded
By Harold Hutchison
Fort Hood was hit by the second mass shooting in five years yesterday, leaving four people dead and 16 wounded. As many as six of the wounded were in critical condition according to some reports.
The death toll from the Fort Hood shooting has reached four, including the shooter, while 14 people have been wounded. Six of the wounded are reportedly in critical condition.
According to media reports, the 34-year-old shooter was an Army specialist. The shooter allegedly went through the 1st Medical Brigade building and the Battle Simulation Center. The shooter reportedly killed himself.
Reports of a second shooter remain unconfirmed. There was a shooting at the Washington Navy Yard in September, 2013, where 12 people died, along with the shooter.
The casualty total at Fort Hood has climbed to one dead, and at least fourteen injured, with some media outlets reporting a fatality, although that has not been confirmed.
According to conflicting reports, one shooter was dead or in custody, but a second shooter was reportedly on the loose.
The FBI, as well as state and local law enforcement, have been sent to assist in the response to the incident.
At least two soldiers have been wounded in a shooting at Fort Hood. A statement by the installation's press center said, "There has been a shooting at Fort Hood and injuries are reported. Emergency crews are on the scene. No further details are known at this time."
A message posted on the Facebook page for the base and III Corps about 50 minutes ago stated, "All personnel on post are asked to shelter in place."
KHOU.com reported at least one person was dead. Fox News reported that "the threat of one shooter" had ended, but that a second shooter may still be on the loose.
An active shooting situation has been reported at Fort Hood. Alarms have been reported going off at the base, one of the largest military bases in the Untied States.
The base was the scene of the 2009 unacknowledged terrorist attack carried out by Nidal Hasan, who killed 13 people before responding security.
According to reports, the base has been placed in a lockdown, with alerts on Twitter and text messages urging people to shelter in place.

Discover how effective coaching relationships add up to improved mathematics teaching and learning!
Math coaches play a vital role in strengthening math instruction and learning in schools. However, without a collegial relationship with the teachers they are trying to help, it is difficult to foster productive collaborations that lead to better teaching practice and increased student achievement. This resource helps coaches confidently clarify, define, and fulfill their role as influential mathematics leaders.
Based on principles established by NCTM and NCSM, this volume features a three-part process for engaging teachers in building high-quality, equitable mathematics programs. The chapters help coaches effectively:
• Collaborate with teachers to align and implement curriculum that positively impacts student learning and achievement
• Build trust and rapport with hesitant or resistant teachers
• Develop collegial partnerships for planning, analyzing, and reflecting on instruction
• Support and sustain individual and institutional change
Filled with numerous vignettes to illustrate coaching practices and strategies to move teachers toward more effective instructional models, A Guide to Mathematics Coaching is an essential companion for transforming mathematics classrooms.
A Guide to Mathematics Leadership
presents a process-based approach to improving mathematics
instruction based on five principles identified by NCTM—equity, curriculum,
teaching, learning, and assessment—and four leadership principles from the
National Council of Supervisors of Mathematics (NCSM)—equity leadership,
teaching and learning leadership,
curriculum leadership, and
assessment leadership.

Is there any way to tell if the belt has been replaced? I bought the car from a dealer with 70K on it and it seems to be well maintained but the TB repl wasn't done at the dealer, previous owner had most work done at a private shop. I know that I would pay for labor for an inspection.

2005 Kia Sportage Question: Has the timing belt been replaced

Answer #1lawrenceg November 01, 2009, 10:27Master
If there is no documentation in the owners manual booklet or the vehicle repair records, it will take a visual inspection. There is a timing belt cover that will need to be removed and the belt inspected. In the end this may be a judgment call, and you will always want to err on the side of replacing the belt, since a broken belt will damage the engine badly.

The community of Dyess, Arkansas stands to welcome music fans gladly with the opening of the Historic Dyess Colony: Boyhood Home of Johnny Cash a project undertaken by Arkansas State Universitys Arkansas Heritage Sites program.
The property officially opened August 16 to the general public. The restoration of both properties has been spearheaded by Dr. Ruth Hawkins, director of Arkansas Heritage Sites at Arkansas State University. Hawkins considers the home a keystone in work the program has done to enrich and uplift the eastern portion of the state.
While the Arkansas Delta is poor economically, it has a rich heritage, Hawkins stated. At ASU, we are attempting to develop that heritage as a way to spur new investment in rural communities. Our sites are catalysts for bringing businesses back into dying downtown areas and creating new tourism-related businesses.
JR Cash was three years old when his parents, Ray and Carrie Cash, moved to Dyess as part of the Dyess Colony Resettlement Area in 1935. The young boy grew up, went to church there and even suffered his first loss when his beloved brother Jack died following a sawmill accident in 1944. Cash, who took the name Johnny when he went into the Air Force in 1950, would later tell audiences how many of his songs were influenced by his time at the home, including Five Feet High and Rising. He would go on to be considered one of the most influential American musicians of the 20th century and to be inducted into the Country Music, Rock and Roll and Gospel Music Halls of Fame.
Arkansas State University purchased Dyess Colony Home #266 in 2011 and has endeavored to restore the house as it would have been the day the Cash family moved in. Hawkins and her team have diligently restored every room, every surface to bring it back as near as possible, true to the memories of Tommy Cash and Joanne Cash Yates.
The first round of work included briefly relocating the house to an adjacent lot, digging and pouring a concrete foundation and then repositioning the home on new supports. Once the roof was replaced and the shutters returned to their original green paint, a climate control system was discretely integrated through floor vents cut in the original hardwood and an accessibility ramp was added to the back of the home.
Inside, the wallpaper put in by a later tenant was removed, the doorways returned to their original locations, wood-burning stoves were re-situated and sinks and a tub from the same time period were added. The linoleum that graced some of the rooms of the house was removed and restored.
Some of the items, such as the piano that belonged to Johnnys sister Carrie, were located and preserved and now sit in the home. Other items including cans for the pantry, furniture and quilts for beds were donated to the project by individuals.
Another portion of the project involved the restoration of the Dyess Administration Building, which still stands on the circle downtown. The building was gutted, updated and replumbed. Torth wing on the ground floor contains interpretation documenting the creation of the Dyess Colony and items from the people who moved there. One vault contains items that belonged to Johnny Cash, including an Air Force uniform and his Boy Scout identification.
Money for the project has come from several sources including an annual Johnny Cash Music Festival now in its fourth year. The event, which takes place at Arkansas State Universitys Convocation Center, features country music artists who donate their performances and in many cases their travel expenses as well. Proceeds from the annual celebration have raised $1.9 million dollars towards a goal of $3.2 million for the Johnny Cash Boyhood Hometown Project. Other funding has come from the Arkansas National and Cultural Resources Council, National Scenic Byways, a National Endowment for the Humanities Challenge Grant and by legislative special appropriation.
The ongoing enterprise of creating and maintaining the Historic Dyess Colony program is a joint effort between the City of Dyess and Arkansas State University. The master plan for the venture includes the recreation of another Dyess Colony home to house visitor services and restrooms; a walking and biking path between the Cash home and the Colony Center; and signage for previous colony structures that no longer exist, such as the hospital, gin, cannery and school. Work has already begun on the restoration of the historic Dyess Theatre adjacent to the Dyess Administration Building.

Well, there's good news and bad news after my most recent trip to SLC. Good news: I was able to locate a will for Jacob Sommer of Moreland, PA written in 1823 and codicils added in 1824 and 1825, and sworn statements added in Feb. 1827 which confirms that timeframe as the time of death of the person we believe to be one and the same as Judge Jacob Sommer. Bad news: It does not mention a son named Jacob, so my theory that Jacob Sommer Jr. of Michigan could be the son of Judge Jacob Sommer was incorrect. Wrongwrongwrong. Sigh.
However there is also some new news: the will does name son John Sommer, practitioner of Physic. So! A new character is in the picture. I have seen previous brief mention of a Dr. John Sommer, who married somebody named Louisa, and they had a daughter named Mary Adelaide Sommer who married Howard Newcomb Potts in 1851. This is significant because nearly 80 years previous, our direct ancestor, George Summers, bought property in New Jersey from a sheriff named Thomas Potts. That's a long stretch in between events, but it's still possible that the connection between the Sommer and Potts family might go back farther than we realize.
And here's some additional inconclusive news. The will mentions that if
the son, John, was deceased without issue, then the estate of Jacob should go
to "my father's brother's grandchildren." Well, my theory is that
Jacob's father was Johannes Sommer, brother of my 6th g-grandfather
George Summers, which is our line that migrated to Michigan and there
were plenty of grandchildren there. Or Jacob's father had another
brother, Martin Sommer, of whom we know almost nothing.
So now we wander into yet another new area of research. So far I've not been able to find much of anything about Dr. John Sommer, and would love to correspond with anybody who might have some ideas or clues.
Meanwhile I am still holding to my belief, which is only that, that Judge Jacob Sommer of Byberry (Moreland), Philadelphia, PA was related to my line. Why would I think that when there is still no documentation that supports the idea? Well, there is no documentation in Philadelphia. Yet. The only reason I entertain this idea AT ALL is because a) the age for Judge Jacob at time of death matches exactly for the Jacob Sommer, son of Johannes Sommer, and b) the story recounted in more than one county history in Michigan that refers to a judge of records in Philadelphia named Jacob Sommer. If not for that, I would have no reason to look or consider this person at all. Why in the world would multiple accounts of the Summers family in Michigan refer to a Judge Jacob Sommer in Philadelphia if there were not some connection? Mixed up as the details in the Michigan history are, I keep thinking there must be somewhere a nugget of truth. It's a matter of weeding out fact from fiction, and I'm not yet ready to consider Judge Jacob as a fictional character to this family's history. Maybe I'm just stubborn :-/

Food & Recipes
Replacing a bad habit with a good habit takes time and patience. It requires several steps, from setting your goals to getting support. One of the important steps is figuring out what your barriers are.
What has stopped you from changing your eating habits in the past? What do you think might stop you in the future? Identifying these barriers now—and having a plan to help you get past them—will help you change bad habits into good habits.
- A barrier is anything that causes you to slip up in your goal to make lifestyle changes, such as changing your eating habits.
- Figuring out what those barriers are and how you can get around them can help you reach your healthy eating goals.
- When you hit a barrier, get support—from your family, friends, or doctor.
- Slip-ups are normal. Expect them, and have a plan for how to get back on track.

December 22, 2014
Officials at a Bell County car dealership found catalytic converters stolen from one dozen vehicles last week and police are saying they're seeing crimes like this more and more.
It seemed like a normal Monday morning.
Steve Bailey, General Manager of Lee Motors in Bell County says, "I come in Monday morning and just you know went out to start of the cars like we routinely do, to move them around, rearrange the lot. Started up one and vroom, real loud noise and we knew immediately what it is."
The catalytic converter was stolen. Employees checked the entire lot and found 12 cars with stolen converters.
Bailey says this part can cost anywhere from 500 to over a thousand dollars. When thieves take them to a scrap metal yard, they're getting 150 at best.
Bruce Bennett, Sheriff of Bell County says, "The price of those things is very very high. The precious metal they're made from is very in demand."
Police say the thief or thieves used an electric saw, costing Lee Motors about 15,000 dollars in damages.
Bailey says, "Hopefully they don't do any other damage when they're up underneath there. They may cut a brake line, they may cut something else. You hope that they don't, but you have to check everything. You have to completely go through the whole vehicle once it's been vandalized because you don't know."
Now the dealership has an armed guard. Bailey says, "You know it's a sad day in time with the economy the way that it's come down too and I really think it's going to get worse before it gets better, people better lock their doors. You know our little county, our mom and pops sleep with the door unlocked but you can't do that anymore."
So far police have not made any arrests.
Police say it's important that scrap metal companies require photo ID from sellers to help track down thieves.

text: There has been no hiding the fact that I have an unhealthy infatuation (in a football sense, not a gay sense, "not that there's anything wrong with that") with Georgia Tech WR Calvin Johsnon, but watching him in today's Bowl game, all I have to say is WOW. This guy is going to be a game breaker ! 6'5" 230, 4.35 speed, great hands and strength, great route running, excellent character, etc. I've already seen some mock drafts where Johnson get's picked in the top 2 overall (Brady Quinn #1 and Johnson #2). Seriously, I know we have needs elsewhere, but I would trade both #1 picks, and a #2 to the Raiders to get the #1 pick overall and draft this guy. I haven't been this impressed with a college WR in quite some time. Calvin Johnson would definately put us over the edge, our offense would be incredible. There are other WR's I'd love to see on the Pats, and we may wind up with one, but this guy is above and beyond anything I've seen in years. I know college success doesn't always translate to pro success, but I think this kid is a can't miss.

In addition to the candidates on the ballots, there were also measures voted on across the country.
Voters in Colorado and Washington legalized the recreational use of marijuana. The measures regulate the production, possession, and distribution of marijuana for people 21 and older.
The Colorado governor, who opposed the measure, said that marijuana is still illegal under federal law. His office, however, intends to "follow through" with the will of the voters.
The state of Oregon had a similar measure on its ballot, but it failed in that state.

Need help for my nook!
January 28, 2013 in Design Dilemma
I really don't know what to do with this.We recently bought this home and it came with some unusual design elements.This nook is the first thing you see when you enter the house.It measures 6"8" at the top of the arch.It is 30"wide and 28"deep.Thanks for all help.

Nice floor. I would put a chest of drawers in the alcove. As wide as will fit. Use it for keys, gloves, Magazines. Maybe a little mirror above.

Built in shelving? A desk area for a laptop? Bookcase? Display something that is special to you? You could put a cool door on it and use it for storage. What did the previous owners use it for?

All of the above.....great closet idea, but just a nice chest with a good painting above it. The spotlight might have too much reflection with a mirror....
Barbara Griffith Designs
I love Jonathan Hress Design idea of the chest of drawers..but it must fill the space, not be wimpy as the table is now. Also bulk is good..it could be on short legs or to the floor. I would hang a tall large, framed mirror over the chest. a beautiful large bowl on the top of the chest.

My first thought was a large statue, but I also like the closet idea, with an arch top door.

It looks like it was made to display art, like a statue. You could put a large plant or several items on staggered shelves/mix with a narrow table or chest which would give a place for gloves and hats. Add a bowl or two for keys and change. What you have in there in the pic looks like a bad fit. If you really want something stunning you could put in a water feature or an electric fireplace (the ones available these days are very realistic).

I like the chest idea but you may have a problem finding one to fill the space and it should be pulled forward so it doesn't feel like you are walking into a closet. To give it a built in look go to a stoneyard and get a remnant piece of granite or marble etc cut to 30"x28" and lay it on top. Use a couple of braquets on the back wall for support.
Thanks so much! Great advice! The small bench looks great in the picture,though my depth is 28". Will a deeper bench look cave-like?Love the wine closet but worried about it being the first thing you
see at the entrance.We could use another front closet,so I will definitely look into that.

Consider a self-contained water feature in the form of a water wall, tall sculpture, etc.

My first thought is to convert it into a wine fridge with a cast iron door with dark glass or a stain glass door so when you open the door a light will come on automatically. Then I thought you just might consider a sitting space with a built in bench or hutch with a tall mirror. Every front entrance should have a mirror placed somewhere so you can check yourself before leaving or returning home.
This nook has an Italian flare, and it's best to keep very simple and not cluttered, a large featured art piece or plant would do very well

Saw your little nook and it made me think of this reading nook, you could make yours similar with a little bench, and lots of cosy pillows :) Alternatively I love the cloak room idea very Narnia styled :) Good Luck I look forward to seeing the end result with what ever you choose.

This is a delicious alternative to lasagna, and a more "user-friendly" version of spaghetti with sauce. Baking the sauce into the pasta makes it slightly less messy for kids, and there's no long skinny noodles to gag on if they aren't cut properly. The mozzarella cheese adds calcium, and using multigrain pasta with omega 3's makes this dish oh-so-healthy!

Helipad is all go
Relevant offers
"It's absolutely fantastic news."
Auckland Rescue Helicopter Trust chief executive Bob Parkinson is delighted the trust can finally build a permanent helipad at Onetangi Sports Park, also known as Rangihoua Park.
The decision was made by the Rangihoua Park hearings panel last week after a submissions process, two days of hearings, site visits, and a day of deliberations.
The panel concluded that a long-term lease for a helipad at the park is the solution for the trust which operates the Westpac rescue helicopter - a third of whose yearly callouts are to Waiheke Island.
Mr Parkinson says the trust has worked for six years to find the perfect site for the rescue helicopter to land in all weather.
He says no other sites matched the central, safe site at Rangihoua Park.
"It's been a long process and to get to this point is just great. It's exciting to hear the news.
"At the end of the day it's a community facility. We'll be the user and operator of it and it will save lives."
The helipad will be restricted for use by the Westpac rescue helicopter, the police Eagle helicopter, and any other emergency helicopter.
An emergency beacon will be installed on the nearby hill and a windsock will be installed on top of the sports pavilion.
Once the lease is drawn up it will be given to the Minister of Conservation Nick Smith for "prior consent" which is needed to make all leases at the park legal.
"We have the funding so the only restriction will be on the process, and we'll be looking to do whatever is required," Mr Parkinson says.
"I'd like to recognise the contribution of the local board and the community for the support they have given us until this point.
"Without that support I'm sure we wouldn't be here." Residents have until this Friday to make a submission on the Auckland Regional Amenities Draft Funding Plan, in which Auckland Council plans to cut funding to the Auckland Rescue Helicopter Trust by $300,000 for the 2013-14 year.

Re: Roaches !!!
PLEASE understand that I am NOT trying to inflame any one!
BUT, let's look at the reality of life aboard a boat! If you are weekend/short vacation sailing in known first world areas, You what ever you need in small quantities you feel is required.
OR, live with a small problem during the short time aboard.
We were cruising full time (24/7) for years at a time and most of the time in some very remote areas, areas with a known large cockroach infestation.
Our option was/is to live with a large infestation or take action. Living with roaches is NOT an option for us!!!
MANY options exist to combat the bugs, some better than others, and some that are no good at all!
In that vain, we looked at and used MANY types of weapons against the buggers! We first started with boric acid, then boric acid with additives like sugar, condensed milk, cookies, etc.... The strait acid is a powder and only sits on flat surfaces and needs to be replaced often. And you breath the fumes as it's stirred up around the boat. Wash or vacuum and you need to start over.
Our video (posted in my first reply) above shows what we found works, and works well. Since moving aboard in 1996, to date, we have NO cockroaches! And we even had cardboard (from very remote stores) aboard at times.
*** LET ME RESTATE THAT, since 1996 to date NO COCKROACHES ***
Weather a product is OK for a human to eat (as determined by the government) has NO baring on the subject. Sorry, but don't get me started on what food is safe for us, GMO & all!
The chalk we use is never in anything we eat! It is used to mark the sides of the hull and areas where the bugs crawl. All the sites are normally out of sight to us. AND, it stays in place for months and years and still works!!!!!!! In the years, it would have taken 10s of pounds of boric to do what one small chalk stick has done!
In the USA, we have found it in discount stores and Asian markets.
What ever a captain chooses to use, all of the option and usage should be weighed, What it is, how dangerous it is, how much is required, how often must it be used.
Sailing & cruising is dangerous in itself, we all try to lower the risk, the fuel & oil are not safe to eat, but we use them. We try to keep all unsafe chemicals out of our water, after all, it's where we live!

Avenue Theatre
11022 Downey Avenue,
2 people favorited this theater
Showing 26 - 27 of 27 comments
This could be one of two theaters proposed for Downey in the mid 1920's. If it is at the northwest corner of 2nd Street, then it is probably a theater built for a Mr. John Baker and designed by Architect and Engineer Henry Carlton Newton and Clifford A. Truesdell, Jr. The plans were announced in the Southwest Builder & Contractor issue of 5/30/1924.
SB&C of 5/15/1925 announced another theater proposed on Downey Avenue (then called Crawford Avenue), this one for a Mr. L.R. Matthews of Downey. No exact location is given for this project.
I saw the outside of this theatre once, in 1991. It was open at that time. I remeber it had a classic Sixties facade, overhanging marquee, and sign. I wandered around it, and structurally it appeared to me to be a considerably older theatre.

A couple drives to a dinner party in stony silence. Each is harboring feelings about a disagreement over a financial matter from earlier that afternoon. Both had shut down after a few minutes of talking about it. Neither one revealed their deeper concerns, which were the true source of the disagreement. So now, they continued driving in silence, hoping the residue wouldn't weigh on them throughout the evening as they tried to stay engaged with their friends. But the unspoken thoughts and feelings added another brick in the wall between them.
Like many, this couple often concealing parts of themselves from each other, especially around deeper, more intimate feelings and thoughts. Practicing what I call Radical Transparency could have helped them stay connected while getting to the root of the conflict. This post explains why a "transparent relationship" is essential for sustaining intimacy in a romantic relationship.
Consider this irony: Transparency is burgeoning all around us, but relationships seem to be stuck in a last-century time warp, untouched by the changing world and the public exposure of most everything that used to be easy to hide. That is, our hyperconnected, social-media dominated world bursts with transparency via public exposure of truths and realities that appear almost immediately via YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, blogs and a host of other vehicles. The lies of politicians, atrocities by despots who try to deny their actions, ethical transgressions by corporations and their executives—all become quickly exposed to the world.
