"Great Performance"
I did not read the print version, but the audio of the summons was great.
The plot in the summons kept you alert, the brethren left a lot to be desired.
Both are excellent performers.
The summons was an excellent book, the brethren left me hanging. I would not purchase books which are connected together again, just did not like that format.
"An awesome read, a ten star performance."
Can't say, did not read the book. However, the audio is excellent, unlike reading, the audio gives a beautiful perception of all the characters. In my opinion there is only one other narrator equal to Michael Beck and that is Jim Hill.
I thought the most memorable part of this listen was learning the true history of Seth Hubbard's father and family.
I have listened to many Michael Beck performances, this was as good if not better than the others.
It's hard to believe that people could be treated the way Letty's Grandfather was treated. I'm sure there were many people treated like that but this was a sad and emotional part of the story.
I would highly recommend this read/listen.

How the Michigan film incentive program works
Michigan's film incentives are used as "refundable tax credits." That means a production company awarded a credit gets to write off all of its Michigan business tax, which is typically a tiny portion of the credit that can run into the millions of dollars. The state then cuts a check for the balance and pays the filmmaker. Many other states competing for films also use refundable credits. California does not.
How companies get incentives.
1. The Film Office and the Michigan Treasury Department review the application of a company that intends to spend at least $50,000 in Michigan to qualify for the tax incentive. The review generally takes about four weeks.
2. The Film Office and Treasury approves or denies the application.
Production-related spending in any of 136 core communities, such as Detroit, Grand Rapids and Flint, are eligible for a 42% tax credit. Spending in other communities, such as Plymouth, Grosse Pointe and Birmingham, is eligible for a 40% credit.
3. The company wraps filming on the movie, usually after about three months in Michigan.
4. The company's accountants compile all production-related spending in Michigan at restaurants, hotels, hardware stores, caterers, retailers, etc. They submit an audited copy of expenses to the Film Office. The company requests a postproduction certificate from the Film Office.
5. The Film Office and Department of Treasury review the expenses. The Film Office issues a postproduction certificate to the company. That certificate lists the tax credit owed to the company.
6. The company files a Michigan Business Tax return at the end of its tax year. The company uses the incentive to reduce its Michigan taxes, which are usually minimal. The state sends the company a check for the balance of the incentive.

I really liked this ring and was very conflicted over whether or not to keep it. I just like bigger rings and while this ring made a very nice statement, I wanted the blue topaz to have a larger carat weight.
WOW!! factor is unbelieveable! My husband presented this dazzling ring to me, and my mouth is still hanging open. Blue topaz has to be one of my favorite stones and this one sparkles like diamonds. The black diamonds that surround the topaz sparkle and make the color of the topaz pop! It's a very nice shade of blue, I just can't believe how much it sparkles...beautiful. I have to say this is one of my favorite rings from ICE and believe me I have many, you can't go wrong with this one. I highly recommend this ring anyone and everyone you won't be disappointed. Thank you ICE for another outstanding piece. I'm thrilled. :)
This ring is soooo perfect for me, blue and big<3
Most beautiful ring ever! Received this ring for my birthday from my husband, and I just LOVE it! The black diamonds really make the blue topaz POP! It is so beautiful, and the WOW FACTOR is amazing. I love big rings, and this one is big
Bought this ring as a gift to myself. Wear it every chance I get. Craftsmanship is top quality. The darker stones surrounding the center stone definitely show off the brilliant color of the Topaz. Good purchase and now want to get a bracelet to go with my ring.
The topaz is big, not as blue as the picture shows, but the black diamonds are very small. They don't even look like black diamonds. unless I tell people no one knows they are there.
i like this ring very much. it appears darker online, but it looks like a large aquamarine it pretty, just like the earring i recently bought. i get tons of compliments on both! they looks they were meant to be a set together (ring & earrings) & the ring looks great paired w/my diamond eternity band!!! the constrast it striking!!!
I was a little nervous because one of the reviews I read said the topaz was too light, but I'm glad I went for it. This is the perfect shade, not too light as would be a sky blue topaz (just my opinion). It's more of a Swiss or glacier blue topaz and the black diamonds really bring out the color. I'm in love-another winner from ICE. The best place on the internet for jewelry!
I purchased this ring for my girlfriend as her engagement ring because she doesn't care for diamonds and it is her birthstone. She loved it and cried and of course said yes. She is very proud to show it off and receives tons of WOW's from people when they see it. They actually take pictures of it to show their husbands/boyfriends. I am very satisfied with the ring and will be coming back for more WOW items for my future wife. Thanks!
I like this ring very much and have received a few compliments since receiving it about a week ago. The topaz is not as blue as it appears in the picture on my computers though and a couple people thought it was an aquamarine rather than a topaz. It gives off a very nice blue in sunlight though (dull looking in fluorescent light) and I still love the ring regardless. The customer service at Ice is excellent as I had to exchange the ring for a smaller size. They gave me no hassles and made the process a breeze. It only took about 7 business days to return the first ring and get the new one.

Triton Knoll
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Distance from shore | 33 km (20.5 mi) |
Triton Knoll Wind Farm is a proposed offshore wind farm 33 km off the coast of Lincolnshire, in the North Sea, England. It is being developed by RWE Npower Renewables.[1]
The original plan was for 240 turbines with a nameplate capacity of 1,200 MW,[2] which could have made it the largest offshore wind farm in the world. In July 2013 the government approved a plan for 288 turbines generating 1,200 MW.[3] In January 2014 the developer RWE npower announced that it had now chosen to progress with a reduced plan which ranges between 600 and 900 MW, rather than the maximum of 1,200 MW.[4] The decision came just six weeks after the company cancelled its plans to build the 1,200 MW Atlantic Array in the Bristol Channel.[4]

I'd like to introduce my family!
Am Sheetal currently running A Bed and Breakfast,took a career break in 2008.
My husband Shailendra Singh is a business man, he showed his creativity and a dream came thru our B & B!! We hve a 6 year old son, he's in Grade One!!
Our home is situated in the cultural and business center of Jaipur close to several major historic landmarks, important institutions and entertainment venues allowing its guests to easily access all parts of Jaipur in few minutes.
Bhola Bhawan guesthouse believes in the ideology of providing an extreme hygienic, secure & happy environment to it guests.
We look forward to hosting you soon!!
Sheetal has completed online and offline ID verification.
Sheetal's place was amazing. Clean, comfortable, very spacious, and conveniently located. She made me feel very welcome, and even served me breakfast with her family. Highly recommended!
Sheet all was very welcoming and responsive. We were well taken care of!
Sheetal and her place were great. Amazing breakfast cooked and available every morning starting at 8. Access to a great driver Abdul. Very comfortable and cozy place to sleep after spending long days exploring Jaipur. We had a great stay here.
We stayed 2 nights in Bhola Bhawan and the experiencies was amazing. Sheetal is your perfect host. The house is very nice, modern and very very clean. It is located in a safe neighborhood from which you can easily take a tuc tuc. What we enjoyed the most was having breakfast with Sheetal while enjoying a good conversation, she helped us with everything we needed. I would highly recommend staying here during your visit to Jaipur!
Very Clean. Comfortable. Modern Great (email hidden)d great breakfast with house guest with food and chai. Shell give great tips where to eat or go
Very pleasant room with a wonderful all you can bfast. Sheetal was a true gem and caring to everything more than one could ask for.
Our stay at Bholas Bhawan in Jaipur was great. The accommodation is very nice, clean and modern furnished. Sheetal is a very, very nice and a helpful host. She gave us lots of tips. Her house is centrally located, so you can reach everything by feet. We would always come back and thanks for the nice time in Jaipur. We wish you all the best! Marius and Benatsha PS.: We enjoyed the nice talks with Chai :-))
Sheetal was an amazing host. She was very prompt and responsive to our needs. She and her husband gave us valuable suggestions/inputs with regards to things to be done/explored in the nearby locality. Their suggestions were really good and we believe it helped us explore Jaipur better given the limited time we had in the city. Her house was extremely clean and well kept. Breakfast served was very good as well. All in all it was a great experience staying with them.
Sheetal was an excellent host and made us feel completely at home ! The house was very clean and comfy , and the location was brilliant , with just a few minutes ride by auto to most attractions ! Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a clean, comfy and affordable stay in jaipur!
This was a really nice guesthouse. Very comfortable room with quality linen and decent hot water. Sheetal is a warm host and puts on a great spread for breakfast. Also very helpful in organising our transport around Jaipur (I would highly recommend Abdul as your driver/tour guide as well). Overall, I wouldn't hesitate in booking Bhola Bhawan for your stay in Jaipur.
Sheetal Singh runs a most excellent Bed and Breakfast operation in a very respectable and safe area of Jaipur. I met many interesting travellers at Bhola Bhawan Guesthouse ranging from families and humanitarian aid workers to academics attending conferences. Sheetal and Shailendra were instantly friendly and their kind assistance brought many rewards out of our trip to Jaipur. Sheetal also introduced us to an excellent driver, Rafiq, who really opened our eyes up to the beauty and elegance of Jaipur. I highly recommend Sheetal as being an excellent host.
I cannot say enough about Sheetal and her family! They were so hospitable and helpful while we stayed in Jaipur. The room was spotless and we did not want for a thing. The breakfast was exceptional and my wife and I still talk about the omelets. Not only was the place we stayed fantastic, but the Singh family is so welcoming, warm and genuinely interested in the guest's comfort. Sheetal, Shailendra, and their son Nick, were a blast to hang out with and we were so thankful to find them and stay at their beautiful place. 5 stars!
Bhola Bhawan was probably the best place we stayed in India and Sheetal's hospitality was the number one reason. The room we stayed in was large as was the bathroom and both were very modern and clean. The shower was awesome! We had breakfast each morning with the family and all the meals were fantastic, a nice mix of familiar (coffee, cereal, etc.) and traditional Indian dishes. Sheetal was quite happy to give us space when we needed it but was also more than happy to join us for drinks on the balcony and engage in lengthy conversation… it was more like staying with a friend than at a hotel. Her hospitality went above and beyond anything else we experienced in India including driving us to the shops, helping us find interesting places to visit off the tourist trail and arranging for a box of stuff to be sent back to Australia for us after we had left. I would (and already have) recommend Bhola Bhawan to anyone visiting Jaipur.
My wife and I stayed in 4 different cities while we traveled thru India - and this was by far our most favorite place. The family is warm, hospitable and so friendly. They did everything possible to make it a pleasant and comfortable stay. We were fed some pretty tasty home cooked meals. Everyone can appreciate that, right? Oh, and our bed was ridiculously comfy! Lol. The entire place is super clean (which is important to us when we're traveling) If you're even debating where to stay in Jaipur, this is your spot. Sheetal hooked us up with a friendly, safe, and professional driver that helped us around while we shopped and visited the different landmarks in the city. Big help. We're already planning to see them when they visit Los Angeles! This is really a home away from home.
I have known Sheetal for quite a while now. I am sure she is such a person who will make the guest's stay comfortable. I would recommend Sheetal as a trustworthy person who can be relied upon with great hopes.
Key things that makes me recommend Bhola Bhawan Bread and Breakfast as an ideal stay in Jaipur are : 1. Centrally located in a quiet suburb 2. Very high standard of cleanliness in the apartment and it is very tastefully decorated too. 3. Sheetal and Shailendra are wonderful, warm and gracious hosts. 4. The breakfast spread is always awesome with a wide array to choose from. 5. A great value for money.
Our stay at "Bhola Bhawan Bed and Breakfast" in Jaipur with Sheetal and Shailendra Singh was a great experience for me & my wife. It was the first time we stayed at any B&B which was totally different from any Club or Hotel where have been staying earlier because of their personal attention, nice home cooked food, concern for our comfort like own family member. It certainly was very much above our expectation. Thank you Sheetal and Shailender; and not to forget little Dev who made us feel more at home. We would love to keep in touch with you. Best wishes.
It is very quiet and private, and so nice to have your own entrance. Both Sheetal and Shailendra are very accommodating. You can really enjoy having your own in-suite kitchen (which is very clean and equipped )! This is such a great neighborhood--walking distance to the Quarter and with excellent bus access (important for if you were traveling without a car). Am sure you would definitely love to stay here!
At Bhola Bhawan Bed and Breakfast you feel very welcome and there is a really nice, hygienic and relaxing atmosphere,genuine help with travel arrangements and sightseeing, lots of local advice, wonderful breakfasts with several options. The hosts Sheetal & Shailendra are extremely hospitable!! My full on ratings to their homestay & will refer as many of my contact as I can!!!
I can't say enough good things about the Singh Family and their Bed & Breakfast. If you like to combine an upscale guesthouse atmosphere with modern Indian hospitality, the Bhola Bhawan guesthouse is the right place to stay. It's a peaceful, relaxing place thanks to Sheetal, Shailendra and family; comfortably located near all important spots in Jaipur. Greetings from NYC!

Confusion About Cloud Services Holds Back Adoption By SMBs
A majority of small and medium businesses (SMBs) in the UK and US are unsure of cloud services or think they are only for large companies, thus missing out on the opportunity to increase productivity and stay more effectively in control of their IT security, new research from AVG Technologies reveals.
AVG Technologies (NYSE: AVG), the provider of Internet and mobile security to 128 million active users, conducted research among more than 1,000 SMBs in the UK and US to gain insights into their understanding and attitudes towards cloud services and IT security.
The study found just a quarter of SMBs had adopted some form of cloud services, while a similar proportion (22% in the UK and 17% in the US) thought cloud services were only for large companies. One-in-three SMBs (31% in the UK and 28% in the US) said they did not understand cloud services at all.
"The research highlights the need to educate SMBs about the benefits that the right cloud services could bring to their businesses," said Gene Marks, a small business owner, author and columnist. "It is clear that SMBs are juggling the same challenges as their larger counterparts but are making complex technology decisions without the benefit of an IT department or outside expertise to guide them."
More than three quarters of SMBs in both the US (77.3%) and UK (76.4%) say they are open to technology that makes their life easier, and are, in fact, dependent on large amounts of technology – over 95% of UK and US SMBs regularly use up to five pieces of technology in the course of their day-to-day work. Significantly, however, a substantial proportion of SMBs in the US (42%) and UK (52%) say they are dealing with IT issues, including security, themselves – and spending up to four hours a week in the process.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Aqueous Self-Sorting in Extended Supramolecular Aggregates
Received: 6 December 2012 / Revised: 27 December 2012 / Accepted: 4 January 2013 / Published: 14 January 2013
(This article belongs to the Special Issue Molecular Self-Assembly 2012)
Abstract: Self-organization and self-sorting processes are responsible for the regulation and control of the vast majority of biological processes that eventually sustain life on our planet. Attempts to unveil the complexity of these systems have been devoted to the investigation of the binding processes between artificial molecules, complexes or aggregates within multicomponent mixtures, which has facilitated the emergence of the field of self-sorting in the last decade. Since, artificial systems involving discrete supramolecular structures, extended supramolecular aggregates or gel-phase materials in organic solvents or—to a lesser extent—in water have been investigated. In this review, we have collected diverse strategies employed in recent years to construct extended supramolecular aggregates in water upon self-sorting of small synthetic molecules. We have made particular emphasis on co-assembly processes in binary mixtures leading to supramolecular structures of remarkable complexity and the influence of different external variables such as solvent and concentration to direct recognition or discrimination processes between these species. The comprehension of such recognition phenomena will be crucial for the organization and evolution of complex matter.

CIA should pledge to a ban on recruiting journalists
[LOL! What would CNN, The Washington Post, and The Huffington Post do, without a staff?!]
4 Jan 2015 Does the CIA recruit journalists? …The practice of recruiting journalists, and of placing intelligence agents under cover as reporters, was apparently banned in 1977. But appearances can be deceptive. Two decades later, in 1996, President Clinton's CIA director, John Deutch, revealed that the CIA had retained the right to use journalists as spies and to have spies pose as journalists. Since then, the issue has not gone away, in part because the CIA refuses to fully swear off these practices.

Bob Ackles Memorial B.C. Lions Thread #9
With a new coach at the helm, Vancouver's championship team begins the 2012 exhibition season at 7 pm tonight at home against the 'Riders.
Wally Buono has no regrets passing B.C. Lions coaching reins For the first time in 40 years, GM looks comfortable at training camp — and we're not talking jeans Read more: http://www.vancouversun.com/news/Wal...#ixzz1xie5XDtx In addition, Jarious Jackson is gone and although Travis Lulay is supposed to get a few reps tonight, we should get a good look at backup QB Mike Reilly. Also... B.C. Lions veteran Paris Jackson reinvents his game, mindset and purpose Hobbled by a knee injury and beaten out for his starter's job, 'kid from Vancouver' determined to be role model for teammates and family Read more: http://www.vancouversun.com/sports/L...#ixzz1xieRCBf4 Update: Geroy Simon becomes all-time leader in CFL reception yards on June 29 2012 against Winnipeg. Video courtesy of MAK. |
Looking forward to seeing what Reilly looks like after a year of learning. He was already playing well at the end of the last exhibition season, if he's made much progress since then we should have a solid backup.
Arland is really going with BRUCE III on his jersey?
Bruce adds "Bruce III" to the back of his jersey. He so crazy. |
Excited to see a parker interception
The defensive starters look good. Hoping Yurichuk can hold his own.
Our team is ****ing stacked
I know its preseason but the defence looks intense.
Not overly psyched about Yurichuk in the middle ( I think that position should be filled with your best defender ie. Eliminian, Simpson, etc..) but the front 4 are established, the back 5 are established. The only question mark is the LB crew |
Hard not to be optimistic right now, this just looks like a continuation of the roll they were on at the end of last season. Although the Riders being terrible doesn't hurt...how do you get no pressure on the QB against an offensive line full of backups and rookies?
Hell of a catch by Moore at the end of the half. What a receiving core. If Lulay can have this much time all season hes going to put up 5000+ yards easy.
Chris Cuthbert needs to learn that his name is Anthony STEWART NOT Anthony Sanders.
:shakehead |
I guess he saw that Robert Griffin had the III on his jersey at Redskins camp and said "me too." :dunno: also it's hard not to get excited already. Yeah, it's just pre-season, but it's still encouraging as hell. |
Reilly looks like he is going to be a solid back up. He looks better than Jackson did against the Ti-Cats tonight.
Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed this |
Jesus. What a thorough trouncing.
I mean every Lion has looked good. And every Rider has looked terrible. |
What a catch!
:amazed: |
Does it mean anything that the Riders suck, the Eskies are using Jyles as their starter, and Calgary has lost Burris? Its the CFL so I try not to predict anything but it seems like an easy year for the Lions. |
Firstly glad to see this title back!!
Secondly, going home from the game right now. Great game for a pre-season game. Team looks very good. A few kinks but that's to be expected. We are 2-deep at QB. Lulay is the reigning MVP, and Reilly looked amazing out there. Get him more experience and he will be a solid starter in this league for years to come. Very excited for the season!!! |
Just need the Lions to avoid a slow start like last year. |
Well that was a gongshow. :laugh:
So tomorrow's game isn't on TV? Lame.
I get that TSN has the NBA finals, but TSN2 is showing a re-airing of a Euro 2012 match from earlier in the day. That's just dumb. |

FOX Sports Exclusive
Giants fired up by Holliday's slide
Listen, I understand why Giants manager Bruce Bochy is upset.
The Cardinals' Matt Holliday slid late into Giants second baseman Marco Scutaro, injured Scutaro's left hip, forced him to eventually leave the game. If Scutaro is unable to return for Game 3, this issue will only become bigger, and the hostilities might only grow.
That said, all those livid with Holliday should have seen him in the Cardinals' clubhouse after the game, facing waves of reporters, repeatedly expressing remorse. Oh, I know what some of you are thinking — too late. But Holliday said it himself: "I wish I had slid one step earlier."
Things happen fast, Holliday added, not as an excuse, but as an explanation. The Giants' Hunter Pence used the same exact phrase in the home clubhouse, not to necessarily exonerate Holliday, but to provide a greater perspective — perspective that too often is lost on matters like this.
I'm sorry, there is only so much anger that can be directed at Holliday. No one ever refers to him as a dirty player, and he wasn't trying to make a dirty play. Things happen fast. And occasionally, things go wrong.
"You don't want to see Scutaro or anyone get hurt on a baseball field," Pence said. "You understand in the circumstance that you're going to take someone out. You're going to go hard . . .
"In my opinion, it pumped us up a little bit. But these kinds of things . . . you know Holliday. I don't think he's trying to hurt someone. He's playing the game hard. These things happen."
The play occurred Monday night in the first inning of the Giants' 7-1 victory over the Cardinals, which tied the National League Championship Series at one game each. Holliday, trying to break up a double play, plowed into Scutaro, causing a hard, violent collision.
The Giants' Angel Pagan, saying he "felt a little bit of anger," responded with a leadoff homer in the bottom half of the inning. And Scutaro remained in the game to deliver the night's biggest hit, a two-out, two-run, bases-loaded single in the fourth that resulted in a third run when Holliday misplayed the ball for an error in left.
By the sixth, however, Scutaro told Bochy he no longer could move adequately, and Bochy replaced him with Ryan Theriot. X-rays on Scutaro's hip were negative. He was walking in the clubhouse without a limp, according to one Giants official. But the team sent him for an MRI exam to determine the exact nature of his injury.
Rule 6.05(m) states a batter is out when "a preceding runner shall, in the umpire's judgment, intentionally interfere with a fielder who is attempting to catch a thrown ball or to throw a ball in an attempt to complete any play."
The rulebook adds, "The objective of this rule is to penalize the offensive team for deliberate, unwarranted, unsportsmanlike action by the runner in leaving the baseline for the obvious purpose of crashing the pivot man on a double play, rather than trying to reach the base."
Was Holliday's play that excessive? It's a judgment call. But Bochy, perhaps the most outspoken of anyone with the Giants after the game, said Holliday violated the rule.
"I really think they got away with an illegal slide there," Bochy said. "That rule was changed a while back. And he really didn't hit dirt until he was past the bag. Marco was behind the bag and got smoked. It's a shame somebody got hurt because of this."
Countered Cardinals manager Mike Matheny: "We teach our guys to go hard. Play the game clean, play it hard, not try and hurt anybody. And I hated to see that it ended up that way. That's not how we play the game. We do go hard, but within the rules."
See what charity this represents, see the bow ties Ken has worn and learn about BowTie Cause.
Problem was, Holliday started his slide not before he got to the bag, but when he was practically on top of it, his momentum carrying him past the base. Scutaro, who is listed at 185 pounds, is at least 50 pounds lighter than Holliday, who is listed at 235 but said he actually is 250.
The play was regrettable at best, reckless at worst — and Holliday seemed to know it. Giants catcher Buster Posey told reporters that Holliday asked about Scutaro during the game and admitted that he started his slide too late.
"I'm just playing hard out there, trying to keep us out of a double play," Holliday said. "I hope he's OK. It happens fast. I weigh 250 pounds. When I get going . . . I kind of landed on him, which I wish wouldn't have happened. I wasn't trying to hurt him."
Theriot, who said he wanted to look at the play more closely before passing judgment, said, "It's playoff baseball. Guys are going out giving 150 percent. Yeah, it does happen. I mean, I've been crushed numerous times."
Doesn't mean Holliday slid correctly. Doesn't mean the Giants will easily forgive. Scutaro, who turns 37 on Oct. 30, is a heart-and-soul player who emerged as one of the Giants' best hitters after arriving in a trade from the Rockies on July 27. His teammates nicknamed him "Blockbuster" — perfect, considering that he made a bigger impact than any of the players the Dodgers acquired in their actual blockbuster with the Red Sox.
Theriot would be an adequate replacement, but the Giants acquired Scutaro because they wanted someone better. In any case, let's not get ahead of ourselves — the immediate hope is that Scutaro will be OK. If he's not, my guess is that Scutaro, an old-school, tough-minded type, will dismiss Holliday's slide as an unfortunate incident, part of the game.
Things happen. Things happen fast. Things sometimes go awry.

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't had the chance to see what's been added to the gallery since late last night (for eastern time zone). I'm a substitute teacher, and I was called in today to work in one of the preschool classes. Overall they were good kids but I have to admit that working with them makes me kind of glad my own kids are teenagers now.
I have a meeting in about 30 minutes so I'd better go scrounge up some supper and change out of my home clothes into something more presentable. I'll be back later tonight to check out what's been shared in the gallery today.

Dozens of Israeli Tanks Invade Gaza; 8 Palestinians Killed
Dozens of Israeli tanks and armored vehicles backed by attack aircraft have invaded the Gaza Strip in the largest Israeli military operation in the area in months. The Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz reports Israeli forces have killed at least eight Palestinians. The Israeli raid comes a day before Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Israeli President Ehud Olmert hold their first set of talks since the Annapolis summit.
Report: CIA Attorneys OK'd Destruction of Interrogation Tapes
The New York Times is reporting lawyers within the clandestine branch of the CIA gave written approval to the destruction in 2005 of hundreds of hours of videotapes documenting interrogations of two prisoners at secret CIA prisons. Today CIA director Gen. Michael Hayden is scheduled to appear before a closed session of the Senate Intelligence Committee to answer questions about the destruction of the tapes.
Ex-CIA Agent Admits Waterboarding Is Torture, Defends Its Use
A leader of the CIA team that conducted one of the videotaped interrogations has admitted the CIA tortured the al-Qaeda operative Abu Zubaydah. Retired CIA agent John Kiriakou said subjecting Zubaydah to waterboarding was torture but necessary. Kiriakou told ABC News that Zubaydah began to cooperate with interrogators after he was waterboarded.
New Jersey Moves to Abolish Death Penalty
The state of New Jersey has taken a major step toward becoming the first state to abolish the death penalty in more than forty years. On Monday, the State Senate voted to replace the death sentence with life without parole. The bill has support from New Jersey's Democratic-controlled Assembly and Democratic Governor Jon Corzine. Earlier this year a special state commission determined the death penalty was a more expensive sentence than life in prison and has not deterred murder.
Press Baron Conrad Black Sentenced to 6+ Years
The Canadian press baron Conrad Black has been sentenced to six-and-a-half years in jail for fleecing millions of dollars from shareholders of his company Hollinger International. Black's media empire included the Daily Telegraph in London, the Chicago Sun-Times, the Jerusalem Post, National Post in Canada, and 400 other newspapers. Black was also ordered to return $6.1 million and pay a $125,000 fine. US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald said he hoped Black's sentencing will send a message to corporate America.
Patrick Fitzgerald: "We're gratified that what happened in the court today should send a message to people who would even think about corporate fraud. Conrad Black was sentenced to six-and-a-half years. Anyone else who would think about stealing money from shareholders by taking money without permission, by committing fraud and deceiving shareholders, should think very, very seriously about the consequences that happened to Black."
Black remains free on bail until March 3, when he will report to prison.
Supreme Court Rules in Favor of Discretion in Crack Sentencing
In legal news, the federal sentencing committee is meeting today in light of the Supreme Court ruling on Monday that federal judges can ignore sentencing guidelines and impose shorter sentences for crack cocaine crimes to make them more in line with those for powder cocaine. The sentencing panel will decide whether to retroactively reduce crack sentences in a move that could cut prison time for more than 19,000 prisoners. Under the current guidelines, possession of five grams of crack triggers a five-year mandatory sentence, while it would take 100 times that amount to trigger a similar five-year mandatory sentence for possession of powder cocaine, which is essentially the same drug in a different form. The disparity has been challenged by civil rights groups because crack is more often used by African Americans, powder cocaine by whites.
Woman Reports Being Gang-Raped by Halliburton Workers in Iraq
A woman in Houston, Texas has sued the company Halliburton and its former subsidiary KBR after she says she was gang-raped by employees of the company in Baghdad. Jamie Leigh Jones, who was working for KBR at the time, says she was raped by multiple men at a KBR camp in the Green Zone. Jones accuses the company and the US government of covering up the incident. Jones told ABC News that after she was raped, the company put her in a shipping container without food or water for at least twenty-four hours. She was also warned that if she left Iraq for medical treatment, she'd be out of a job. No one has been prosecuted for the rape. ABC News reported the alleged assailants will likely never face a judge and jury, due to a loophole that has effectively left contractors in Iraq beyond the reach of United States law.

US-backed Afghan President Hamid Karzai is calling on the international community to send more troops to fight in Afghanistan.
Hamid Karzai : "At the same time, we would like to have the international community continue to add to the building of the Afghan forces, continue to add to the Afghanization of this whole exercise, so that Afghanistan can be ready in time to take on the responsibility of defending the Afghan country with Afghan institutions and Afghan ability."
Karzai spoke in Kabul during a meeting with visiting British Prime Minister Gordon Brown.

Scooter Libby Drops Appeal in Perjury Case
In news from Washington, Dick Cheney's former chief of staff Lewis "Scooter" Libby has dropped his appeal in a perjury case stemming from the outing of CIA operative Valerie Plame. Libby was found guilty in March of lying and obstructing an investigation into who blew Plame's cover after her husband Joseph Wilson criticized the Iraq war. President Bush commuted Libby's two-and-a-half-year prison sentence in July, but Libby still had to pay a $250,000 fine. President Bush has not ruled out a full pardon for Libby.
HRW: Crackdown in Burma Deadlier than Reported
A new report from Human Rights Watch says the crackdown by the military junta in Burma on pro-democracy protests in September was far deadlier than Burmese officials have let on.
Steve Crawshaw, the United Nations Advocacy Director at Human Rights Watch: "What we've seen is a horrendous series of killings and brutality with both live bullets and beatings during the protests of the last couple of months. The government says everything is back to normal. Our report makes it clear that that is absolutely not the case. Arrests are continuing, and we've seen a series of very brutal actions, which I think the world really needs to wake up to."
Human Rights Watch documented at least twenty deaths of students, civilians and Buddhist monks in Rangoon but said that many more were likely to have died in Burma's main city and nationwide. Official Burmese media have admitted that ten people died in the crackdown, including a Japanese video journalist shot dead at point-blank range.
Anti-Torture Protesters in Arizona Jailed Without Bail
In Arizona, a Catholic priest and a retired Catholic lay leader have been jailed without bail for taking part in a nonviolent protest against US torture practices outside Fort Huachuca, home of the US Army Intelligence Center and School. A judge ordered Father Jerry Zawada and Betsy Lamb to remain in jail because they had failed to heed orders in other cases. In October, two other Catholic priests, Steve Kelly and Louie Vitale, were sentenced to five months in prison for taking part in another anti-torture protest at Fort Huachuca.
South Korea Faces Worst Oil Spill in Its History

Truth: I'm basically smitten by anything that includes both bread and pulled, saucy meat.
Truth: "Banh Mi" is actually the Vietnamese term for all types of bread and baguettes but it's evolved and now refers to a meat-filled sandwich found in Vietnamese bakeries.
Truth: Vietnamese food rocks
Truth: I've taken some liberties with this recipe and don't claim this as an authentic banh mi.
Truth: It's amazing.
The meat starts off in the slow cooker where it slow-roasts for hours and gets fall-apart tender. The sauce it's cooked in is a combo of sweet chili sauce (click here to learn a little about it), lime juice, and fish sauce. Fish sauce is a key ingredient in Thai and Vietnamese cooking and doesn't actually taste as "fishy" as one would think. While I fully encourage you to give it a go, soy sauce can be substituted if you can't get past the name.
Stir up the sauce and pour over the pork in the slow-cooker. I usually like to use a pork shoulder, but this time I used a pork sirloin roast which is a good choice if you want something a bit leaner.
While the pork is cooking, let's put together a little cool, crisp, slaw. One of the main components of this slaw is daikon and if you haven't had it it's a super mild white raddish that you can find in most produce sections. Sometimes it's called Japanese raddish but you'll be able to spot it because it basically looks like a long, giant root.
Shred some daikon and carrot, throw in some fresh cilantro and toss with a dressing made of rice wine vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, and a little salt. It's okay if you get this put together a few hours before you're ready to serve because the carrots and daikon hold their crunch really well.
After 6-8 hours your meat should be full cooked and ready to go. Take the pork out of the slow cooker and place on a plate to easily shred. Pour the cooking liquid from the slow cooker into a separate bowl, skim the fat off the top and combine 1 cup of that liquid with another 1/4 C of sweet chili sauce. Toss the shredded meat with the cooking liquid sauce and you're ready start making sandwiches!
Before starting to assemble the sandwiches, mix a dollop of mayonnaise with a squirt of sirracha and spread each side of a toasted baguette with it. From there, pile high with the hot pork, a spoonful of the slaw, and top with a few thin slices of cucumber.
Take a bite and enjoy the crunchy, smooth, cool, and spicy-ness. Yup- it's good.
- 3 lb pork shoulder
- salt and pepper
- ¼ C sweet chili sauce
- ¼ fish sauce
- 1 lime, juiced
- ¼ C sweet chili sauce
- 1½ C shredded carrots
- 1½ C shredded daikon
- ½ C fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 tsp sesame oil
- 2 tsp sugar
- ¼ tsp salt
- cucumber, thinly sliced
- mayonnaise mixed with sirracha to taste
- french baguettes, sliced and toasted
- Season pork shoulder with salt and pepper and place in a slow cooker.
- Combine fish sauce, ¼ sweet chili sauce, and lime juice in a small bowl and pour over the pork. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or until the meat shreds easily. Remove meat from cooking liquid and shred.
- Pour cooking liquid into a separate container, skim off fat and combine 1 C of this skimmed liquid with the remaining ¼ of sweet chili sauce. Toss the meat with this sauce and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl combine daikon, carrots and cilantro. Whisk together the vinegar, sesame oil, salt, and sugar and pour over the veggies. Toss to combine and set aside.
- Spread each baguette with the sirracha mayo, a few slices of cucumber, and a spoofull each of the meat and slaw.

Wilson Antonio Valdez (born May 20, 1978) is a Dominican Atlantic League shortstop for the York Revolution. Previously he was a Major League Baseball utility infielder.
Valdez was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Montreal Expos on February 4, 1997. He played on the Expos' Dominican League teams from 1997-1999 and then on various minor league Single-A teams for the Expos through 2001.
On March 29, 2002, he was claimed off waivers by the Florida Marlins and sent to the Marlins' Double-A team in Portland. He continued in the Marlins organization in 2003, playing with their Double-A team in Carolina and their Triple-A team in Albuquerque.
On June 17, 2004, while hitting .319 for Albuquerque, he was traded by the Marlins with cash to the Chicago White Sox in exchange for reliever Billy Koch. The White Sox promptly assigned him to their Triple-A affiliate in Charlotte where he hit .302 and earned his first major-league call-up in September of 2004 to the White Sox. On September 26, 2004, he hit his first career home run off Brian Anderson. In limited action he hit .233 for the Sox.
After the season, he was waived by the White Sox and claimed by the Seattle Mariners. He started the 2005 season as the starting shortstop for the Mariners. However, he hit only .198 and was traded to the San Diego Padres on June 9, 2005. After a stint with the Padres' Triple-A team in Portland, he returned to the major leagues with the Padres, hitting .231 in August as a utility player.
After the 2005 season, he was released by the Padres and signed to a minor league contract by the Kansas City Royals, who promptly traded him to the Los Angeles Dodgers during spring training.
On April 29, 2007, he scored the game-winning run in a game against the San Diego Padres that lasted 17 innings. He spent the 2006 season with the Dodgers' Triple-A team, the Las Vegas 51s, where he hit .297 and stole 26 bases.
In 2007, a spring-training injury to the Dodgers' starting shortstop Rafael Furcal created an opening-day roster spot for Valdez and he got plenty of playing time early for the Dodgers. After a quick start, however, he quickly cooled and was returned to the 51s. On January 3, 2008, Valdez's contract was sold to the Kia Tigers of the Korean Baseball Organization. On June 9, he signed with the Tokyo Yakult Swallows of Japan's Nippon Professional Baseball.
In December 2008, Valdez signed a minor league contract with the Cleveland Indians. On May 26, 2009, he was traded to the New York Mets and was added to the major league roster. On June 22, 2009, he was designated for assignment.
On November 25, 2009, Valdez signed a minor league contract with the Philadelphia Phillies and was optioned to the Triple-A Lehigh Valley IronPigs. The Phillies selected his contract from the minors on April 14, 2010, as a reserve infielder, when Jimmy Rollins went on the disabled list. When backup Juan Castro was injured, Valdez became the Phillies' starting shortstop for a few weeks in the beginning of the season. On May 17, Rollins was activated from the disabled list (DL) and the Phillies designated Valdez for assignment, but re-activated him five days later when Rollins returned to the DL. In addition to playing shortstop, Valdez filled in at second base for Chase Utley while he was on the disabled list with a hand injury.
On July 29, in a game against the Arizona Diamondbacks, Valdez hit a one-out, walk-off single to score Cody Ransom from second base and give the Phillies a 3-2 win.[1]
In 2010, Valdez set career highs in games, at bats, runs, hits, total bases, doubles, triples, home runs, runs batted in, bases on balls, intentional base on balls, strike outs, stolen bases, slugging percentage and on-base plus slugging percentage (OPS).
In a game started against the Cincinnati Reds on May 25, 2011, (which did not conclude until May 26), Valdez switched from second base to pitcher in the 19th inning, pitching one inning and allowing no runs. This was the first time he had ever pitched in a Major League game. When the Phillies won in the bottom of the 19th inning, he was credited with the win. Valdez thus became the first position player to earn a win since catcher Brent Mayne won a game for the Colorado Rockies in 2000, and just the second since 1968.[2][3] According to Elias Sports Bureau, Valdez was the first player to start a game in the field and end up as the winning pitcher since Babe Ruth did so on October 1, 1921.[4]
On January 25, 2012, Valdez was traded to the Cincinnati Reds in exchange for left handed pitcher Jeremy Horst. In 77 games with the Reds, Valdez hit .206/.236/.227 with 15 RBI and 3 SB. He made 44 starts, 27 at shortstop. On November 8, Valdez elected free agency.[5]
He signed a minor league contract with the San Francisco Giants in December 2012.
On March 23, 2013, he signed a minor league contract with the Miami Marlins with an invitation to spring training.[6]
On May 25, 2013, he signed a contract with the Camden Riversharks of the Atlantic League.[7]
On February 21, 2014, he signed a contract with the York Revolution of the Atlantic League.

St. Marys running back D.J. Manning earned second-team All-Ohio honors and St. Marys senior center Austin Rupard was named Special Mention All-Ohio when the Associated Press released its Division III All-Ohio teams on Tuesday afternoon.
The teams are based on the recommendations of a state media panel.
Manning, a senior, rushed for more than 2,000 yards this season — setting the school rushing record and the single-game rushing record against Sidney in the season opener.
ST. MARYS — The Auglaize County Sheriff's Office released that the following roads are closed: Briggs between Deep Cut and State Route 197, Townline Lima at Buckland Holden and County Road 66A between Seibert and County Road 168 because of high water.
The Marion Local at New Knoxville boys basketball game scheduled for Friday, Dec. 16 has been postponed because of the Flyers' run to the state championship football game and Homecoming has been pushed up a week at New Knoxville.
The make-up date for the Marion Local game now set for Tuesday, Jan. 31, with a 6 p.m. junior varsity tip-off.
Homecoming activiies will now be held on Friday, Dec. 9 against Waynesfield-Goshen. That game is a 6:30 p.m. JV tip-off.
MARIA STEIN — Maybe nothing illustrates the next-man-in-line mentality of the Marion Local football program better than Justin Rutschilling, the Flyers' own proverbial rags to riches story.
Just a junior varsity player from a season ago as a junior, Rutschilling worked his way into becoming a first team All-Midwest Athletic Conference player on both offense and defense this fall.
The St. Marys Athletic Department has 205 tickets available for Saturday's boys basketball game at New Knoxville.
On Tuesday, parents of varisty and junior varisty boys basketball players and parent of varsity and junior varsity cheerleaders may pick up a maximum of two tickets at 5:30 p.m. in the high school main office.
On Wednesday season ticket holders may pick up a maximum two tickets starting at 5:30 p.m. in the high school office.
A quartet of Wapakoneta Redskins were named to the Division II All-Ohio football lists, which were released on Monday.
Wapak running back Connor Pickens earned first team All-Ohio honors. Pickens rushed for 1,611 yards this season.
Safety Kevin Kraft and offensive lineman Chris Schwartz were both second teamers.
Linebacker Brendan Wilson took third team honors.
The Divisions III and IV All-Ohio lists will be released on Tuesday afternoon and the Division V and VI lists will be released on Wednesday afternoon.
NEW BREMEN — Members of a local historical society are trying something new this year with their annual holiday event.
Members of the New Bremen Historic Association are holding their Christmas Tree Festival at the Lockkeeper's House in conjunction with the village of New Bremen's tree lighting.
"Usually we have it in our museum," said Diane Paul, a Christmas Tree Festival organizer. "A lot of people in New Bremen don't know what the Lockkeeper's House is about, so this gives us a chance to show them."
NEW KNOXVILLE — Principal Linda Tebbe announced that the Kroger Technology Fund has raised almost $5,000 since its inception at the Board of Education meeting Monday night.
"We've collected almost $5,000 since May," she said. "It's just unbelievable."
ST. MARYS — St. Marys City Councilors polished off a light agenda on Monday night.
MINSTER — Minster center Tara Clune scored 19 points and the Wildcat girls basketball team had 11 players get into the scoring column in a 62-20 season-opening victory over Jackson Center on Saturday night.
Clune score all of her 19 points in the second and third quarters — including six baskets in the third to tally 12 of Minster's 18 third-quarter points.
Minster held Jackson Center to four first-half points.
Minster's Kayla Albers added 11 points and Sara Dahlinghaus had 10 points.
