Clarity in Neo-Nazi Stabbings at Ritz
Categories: Crime, Palm Beach News
Flickr: Jon Leighton |
Protesters at an Irving event in England. |
Walker told me that two men, 31-year-old Christopher Nachtman and 43-year-old John Kopko, first began arguing in a Ritz-Carlton conference room where Irving gave his speech. But their fight -- and the stabbings -- occurred just outside that conference room.
Also, it appears that Irving's speech was never booked at the Palm Beach Airport Hilton, as activists believed. The hotel staffer who books catering and conference rooms says that the hotel received a number of calls from Irving supporters who apparently had been told in an email blast by Irving that the speech would be at that hotel. It may have been an effort to throw demonstrators off the scent.
I just received a phone call from Robert A. Lynn, an editor for Veterans Outlook Magazine, based in Orlando. An admirer of Irving, Lynn calls him a "pure military historian" and rejects labels of "fascist" and "neo-Nazi" that have followed Irving's career. Lynn, who says he had lunch with Irving last week, found him "intelligent, scholarly." He told me: "You have to make it clear that Mr. Irving had nothing to do with [the stabbings]. It was a spontaneous fight between two idiots."

arry Weissman: A recent article in the
New York Times
on John Wayne and a movement of "young Americanists" talked about
Girl in Landscape
as the classic American story, re-enacted on another planet. What were you hoping to convey with this novel?
Jonathan Lethem: Well, I was very flattered by that
piece, but I think if I'd consciously set out to extend or participate in or retell the
classic American story
I probably never would have written a word. The novel came out of my very personal obsession with John Ford's The Searchers, and I guess I'd credit that film with being some kind of paradigmatic American story--but as a novelist my involvement is with the tangible particulars--the way John Wayne moves his hands, the way a young girl looks at him with both fondness and horror--and I try to forget about larger, more abstract meanings. If they come in through the back door then I'm lucky--it means I've picked well, and my work might resound with bigger stuff.
Girl in Landscape
is your darkest novel yet. How does it relate to your feelings about the current state of the world, and does this darkness have anything to do with your move last year from California to New York?
JL: No, the opposite.
was conceived and partly written in California, and it's completely bound up in the darkness of the West that I glimpsed out there. That we've-reached-the-edge-of-the-world thing. It's very hard for a book to reflect one's feelings about the
state of the world, of course, because they're written slowly and then delayed further in the publication process--so
might be more an insight into my feelings two years ago, when I was exploring childhood feelings that had been deferred, that hadn't gotten into my first few books. In fact, my return to NY is resulting in a new book that is in some ways
Girl in Landscape
's opposite--giddy and word-drunk and sweet. Like a book written by an Archbuilder.
LW: Your writing creates these surrealistic landscapes, yet you succeed in making them completely plausible for the reader. How do you go about inventing a new world for your reader and making it believable?
JL: Well, thanks. I don't know that I can explain the effect you're describing, except to say that it's often a case of
less is more
--I do my best not to explain the odd elements, to instead let them creep into view almost subliminally, so that they have the appearance of real life--which is never explained in books, is it? This isn't exactly a technique I invented--the offhand presentation of the surreal goes back at least to Lewis Carroll--but perhaps I've succeeded in giving it my own flavor.
LW: Which of your novels do you like best, and why?
JL: Right now I'm in love with
Girl in Landscape,
and not just because it's the newest. It seems to me my first true novel, really, in that everything in the book is completely an organic outgrowth of the characters and settings, and the progress of the plot emerges from the characters' emotions and responses. It's felt all the way through. Whereas my first three books were conceit-driven--the characters were always at the mercy of the some clever overarching design.
LW: You have studied art and appear to be somewhat of a film buff. What attracts you to the novel as an artistic medium?
JL: I was raised by an artist, a painter, and brought up with the expectation that I would paint. At the same time my family was terribly literate, and I had a childhood soaked in books. These weren't things I questioned--they surrounded me. And I never really saw a strict division between those interests, those impulses. My parents were filmgoers too. Film is an irresistible narrative force, and as a writer you can only turn your back on it completely, or do the opposite, allow it to wash over you, influence you, and then engage in a conversation with it, which is what I've done--most literally in the new book, of course. I've also fooled around with music, with mixed results. But the point is I'm keen on the arts in general (doesn't that sound bland!) and I guess I like cross-fertilizations between them, just as I do between genres.
Oh, but you asked what attracts me to the
Well, it's really the biggest, smartest, most encompassing medium, I think--you can describe a film, a symphony, a play, or for that matter a philosophy, a war, or the wholeWorld Series in a novel, and it's still a novel--and at the same time it's completely under one's sole command--no cast, no crew, no paints, no unwieldy canvases or chunks of marble. That paradoxical hugeness and economy is perfect for me. I'm an absolute dictator, unable to delegate, so to have someone screw up my special effects or give a rotten performance in a film or hit a flat note in my symphony or whatever would make me scream. I'm sparing others by writing novels instead.
LW: You are a young writer who has already received an enormous amount of critical acclaim. What challenges are you looking forward to? How would you like to grow as a writer?
JL: Challenges? Well, really just to keep doing what I'm doing is challenge enough. The world has called my bluff in the most spectacular way--I claimed to have all these novels in me and at the moment the world seems interested, interested enough anyway that I'll get to keep on with it, get to find out what I meant by my own claim. That's exciting, and sometimes daunting. As for growth, I'd really like to expand on what I think, I hope, I've begun in Girl, and that is to make the books realer, more possessed by emotional truth. I want to learn to write books so undeniable and rich that the impulse to categorize them falls away, that the questions of genre that I've tended to raise up to this point become really moot, no matter what sort of surrealist or generic moves I've indulged. I want to write absolute books, one-of-a-kind books.
LW: What have you seen or read recently that has moved you most?
JL: I'm going to sound like a company shill here, but two of the most memorable books of the past few months for me I read in galleys--Colson Whitehead's
The Intuitionist
and Aimee Bender's story collection
Girl With Flammable Hair.
But so often I'm finding older things that move me enormously--I've been obsessed with reading Dawn Powell lately. Oh, and I just reread
A Passage to India.
Forster is unbelievably good, I had to keep putting it down and groaning. Forget the film, read the book. Rereading is underrated. I also just saw Orson Welles'
Touch of Evil
again, and that's as inspiring as art gets. Every frame, every line of dialogue just sings.
LW: What are you currently working on?
JL: It's too soon to say much about it, but the novel in progress is sort of a crime novel. It's set in Brooklyn, mostly. The voice is very, um, agitated. And a bit goofy. It's sort of a voice book, the way
As She Climbed Across the Table
was. And there's hamburgers in it, White Castle hamburgers.

Shas chairman Eli Yishai sent a letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the weekend, in which he asked the PM to push for the release of convicted spy Jonathan Pollard during his visit to the United States.
Pollard, a former civilian intelligence analyst, was sentenced to life in prison in 1987 on charges of spying on the U.S. for Israel.
"The demand for Pollard's release is justified in the days in which we are asked to make concessions for peace," wrote Yishai to Netanyahu, who leaves for the U.S. on Saturday night.
Yishai mentioned in his letter that in the past, Netanyahu recognized the need to act for Pollard's release, being the first prime minister to discuss the issue with the U.S. government.
He also stressed that Pollard has been in prison for 25 years now, and that his medical condition is unstable.
Yishai added that former U.S. officials involved in Pollard's case admit that his sentence was too severe and they too believe Pollard should be released.
"The United States is a close ally so I am positive they will heed the request," Yishai wrote.
Several MKs joined Yishai's plea and gave Netanyahu a letter on the subject addressed to U.S. President Barack Obama.
Netanyahu, however, has no plans of taking the letter with him to the United States.
"The Prime Minister has brought up Pollard's case several times in discussions with the U.S. government, so he does not need to do so through a letter. The proper procedure for transferring letters is to send them in an official manner to the U.S. embassy in Israel," the Prime Minister's Office said in a statement.

Got an offer for one used for 70 dollars from a guy I know. Currently using the quite outdated HD 3870 since I had to sell my main rig. Do yall think the increase in preformance is worth 70 bucks? I know its faster but what I havn't figured out is by how much. Closest i can find is 9800GTX vs 3870 and the 9800GTX/GTS250/GTS450 are similar with the 450 being the fastest. So worth 70 dollars for a boost, or will I not notice it. Im using an E6750 @ 3.4 and an HP 1600x900 LCD.
Re: GTS 450
If it's in good condition, sure. Go for it.
Re: GTS 450
its BiB, he RMA'd an EVGA one and went out and bought a GTX 570 cause he wanted one. So is offering me his RMA'd card in cellophane for 70 bucks lol
Re: GTS 450

There´s no "maybe" here, it was a cover showing both Ichigo human and hollow sides, with that -never shown at the time- Tattoed Horned skull which is an obvious allusion to this new hollow form which not only is horned, also has weird patterns on the skull mask.
This chapter also has a color Matsumoto cover, which Sleepy fans didn´t scanned for some reason.
Hubba hubba.
Haha, guess I was miles off.
Awesome design. AND some battle advancement. Here's to some more advancement next week!
Advancement is an understatement.. GODLY BOUND seems more appropriate. He fricken ripped off Ulqui's arm like a Turkey Drumstick O_O. God help us all... Also, i wonder if he has control over himself and not just goin Berxerker?? He WAS close enough to Orihime to cause harm he didnt so im not sure.
"He is now declaring his words to the WORLD!"
I think there's at least a degree of Ichigo still having some sway here, but there would have been a lot more dialogue if he was in complete control.
That, or Hichigo just didn't see the point in killing them, like it was beneath him. If he wanted to keep ichigo down and retain control, then doing it would be a big psychological advantage, even if it did have a chance of backfiring.
Now all we need is him beating Ulq to death with his own arm. I gotta admit, I didn't like the chapter at first (seemed too DBZ power-up) but the transformation is awesome nonetheless.
How did Super-HIchigo summon his zanpakuto - using the Force? I want him to stay in this form till the end of manga - "How are you Ichigo?" - "Hogghhhrr!!!"
*Ichigo grabs Orihime's ass*
Yeah it'd go like that.

Plaine de Kewu
Cette section ou cet article est une traduction incomplète.
Vous pouvez modifier la page pour effectuer la traduction.
La plaine de Kewu, également appelée plaine de Prambanan d'après le plus connu des temples qui s'y trouve, est une plaine volcanique fertile qui s'étend entre le volcan Merapi au nord, le fleuve Bengawan Solo à l'est, la plaine de Bantul et la formation karsttique des Gunung Sewu au sud, le fleuve Progo à l'ouest, et la plaine de Kedu au nord-ouest. Elle est située à cheval sur le territoire spécial de Yogyakarta[1] et les kabupaten (départements) de Sleman et de Klaten et la ville de Surakarta dans la province de Java central).
Historiquement, dans la tradition javanaise, cette région est appelée « Mataram », identifiée comme le centre du royaume de Medang du VIIIe au Xe siècle, et devenue le royaume de Mataram à la fin du XVIe siècle. It has been an important location in Central Javanese history and culture for over a millennium, since it contains many ancient archaeological remnants of historic significance. If each temples structure was counted separately, the 9th century Central Java period could be said to have produced thousands of temples, scattered from Shiva (Dieng) Plateau, Kedu Plain to Kewu Plain[2].
Apart from the Prambanan Lara Jonggrang complex, Kewu Plain, valley and hills around it is the location of some of the earliest Hindu-Buddhist temples in Indonesia. Adjacent to the complex to the north are Bubrah temple, Lumbung temple, and Sewu temple; to the east are found Plaosan temple. Kalasan temple and Sari temple are to the west, and further is the Sambisari temple. The Ratu Boko compounds are on higher ground just to the south. The discoveries of archaeological sites scattered only a few miles away suggested that this area was once an important religious, political, and urban center of central Java. Despite the smaller scale of its temples, the diversity and sophistication of the archaeological sites in this plain are comparable to Angkor archaeological site in Cambodia.
Agriculture[modifier | modifier le code]
For centuries Prambanan Plain, overshadowed by Merapi volcano, was known for its rich and fertile volcanic soil perfect for intensive rice cultivation. The economy of Java relied heavily on rice agriculture, and the ancient polity of Central Java, with their complex political, economy and social systems, flourished on this plain.
The images of rice agriculture scenes and activities can be found in bas-reliefs in Borobudur and Prambanan. The early Mataram Kingdom was dependent on rice yields and tax collected from their subjects. Java was famous for rice surpluses and rice export, and rice agriculture contributed to the population growth of the island. Many of the rice paddies in the landscape remains unchanged from the earlier eras.

The object is to achieve as close to a single, fluid movement as we can, but in the course of that long movement, several things must happen, and each must be addressed at some point. I've seen four-step and five-step teaching systems. For our purposes here, we'll break it down into two or three.
First, there is access or getting the hand onto the bolstered sidearm. Next, there is presentation, the act of getting the gun out of the holster and into play. Finally, one could argue, there is completion. It could be firing the shot, perhaps taking a suspect at gunpoint or going forward with the exact task for the handgun as yet unknown. This month, we'll address the first step. Access
This is the most complicated step, because there are so many different ways to carry the gun and so many different ways to get at it. The first question is, do we come up under the gun in the old-time but still very fast "scoop" draw, in which the initial hand contact is the fingers touching the front strap of the frame, or down from above, making initial contact with the web of the hand on the back strap?
For a universal technique, come down from above. The scoop draw won't work with many holsters, such as the bellyband, most shoulder figs, a pocket holster, or some low-mounted tactical thigh scabbards. Nor is it well adapted to security holsters, which require multiple release movements. Coming down from above works better in these situations, and is also better adapted to drawing from concealment.
Each hoister style requires its own technique. For simplicity, we'll focus on the strong-side hip bolster, worn beneath an open front garment such as a coat or vest. Penetrating Concealment
What is hidden from the eyes of strangers is hidden from the hand of the wearer. To get inside the concealment, every instructor seems to offer a subtly different method. I would go on the assumption that the free hand may be otherwise occupied during an emergency, and focus on a technique that allows the drawing hand to do all the work.
With an open front garment, I recommend bringing the fingertips of the gun hand to the centerline of the torso, just below the sternum, keeping them in contact with the body. Now, with the elbow to the rear and those fingertips maintaining contact, bring the hand back rapidly toward the pistol. The fingers will sweep the coat back and clear, even if you can't turn your hips to help give the garment momentum to swing away. As this movement approaches its completion, you'll feel the fingertips brushing across the holstered handgun. Now ... Lock On
Let the web of the hand come down onto its contact point on the backstrap of the handgun. This will be high into the tang of a semiautomatic pistol's grip, or at the top edge of the recurve on the frame of a revolver. This in turn will index the rest of the hand to its proper position. The trigger finger stays straight, "disarticulated'" and working separately from the other digits, as the other three fingers lock onto the gun in a very firm grasp. We're going to have to exert some force in a moment to draw, and you want a hard hold to overcome any resistance, particularly if clothing fouls the gun or something else interferes with the game plan.
It is at this point that we release any safety devices that secure the gun in the holster. The thumb releases the thumb-break of a conventional safety strap. The middle finger unlocks a Bianchi Carry-Lok or a Safariland concealable security holster. The pad of the index finger trips the paddle of the SERPA from Blackhawk. On some police security holsters, both thumb and middle finger will release locking elements simultaneously. Some holsters may require a little "rock" in a certain direction to clear internal niches that secure on the rear of a cylinder or on an ejection port.
If the free hand hasn't been fighting off close-range assailants, shoving innocents out of the line of fire, or holding a flashlight, it should have been brought to midline of the body. I like to keep the fingertips pointed forward, better poising this hand to engage in a two-hand hold or to ward off a last-instant physical assault.
The access stage of the draw is now complete, and we're ready for the presentation stage, which we'll address next time. If you're new to working a pistol from the holster at speed, it wouldn't hurt at all to practice the access movement (with a triple-checked unloaded handgun, or a dummy gun) for a month until the next issue of GUNS comes out.

I can also do wheelies very easily from a stop but I have tightened up the slipper clutch and still the same result. Am I missing something? Or is the slipper bad? Maybe the engine clutch? I've had experience w/ a nitro rustler before and had no problems but this has got me confused. If you have suggestions, please let me know.

McGowan facing three months out
Saints have been handed a huge blow with the news that star midfielder Paul McGowan faces three months on the sidelines with a shoulder injury.
The former Celtic man was only on the bench for Saturday's game against Ross County due to the injury and wasn't spotted warming up with the other subs. We really struggled without him in the first half and the prospect of having to go until January - at the earliest - is not one anyone should relish.
It is believed McGowan has been having problems with his shoulder for a while but things worsened during last week's win over Hamilton. He was outstanding for us last season after turning his loan deal from Celtic into a permanent switch and we can only hope he gets better soon.
He becomes the third Saints player to be ruled out long term, with goalie Grant Adam out for the rest of the year and Darren McGregor unlikely to play again this season.

Seeking Info on possible Marina in Cozumel
two harbors in Coz.
the southern one is behind the Hotel Presidente and is very shallow ..only scuba and small fishing boats
the other one is north of the "bay" ....and should be ok for you. But it is also somewhat crowded, especially when their is a fishing tornament going on.
They have two large Cruise ship piers
south f the ferry piers. There is plenty of room on the inland side of the new pier, but I doubt that the cruise ship people would like you there.
It doesnt look too good. Try to find the harbourmaster email and ask him before. I will bet that you have to anker in the "bay" in front of Charly and Charly...
There are two boats ankered there from the sailing center in Coz 20 and 30 feet all year long. Its pretty unprotected I am afraid but the holding should be pretty good.
Again check with the harbourmaster first.
I have a pic of the rental boats ankered there
find out the email from the harbourmaster from.. www.seaurchindive.com Tell Isidro I send you. And if you go diving , definitely go with him. !!!! He is the best.

Great stuff! I love watching your developing your aesthetic—you're definitely an original!
Thanks for the feedback and the generous compliment James! Maybe this little exercise will eventually become a custom font. If not, I'll probably release just one weight and call it Alegria, which means "joy" in Portugese. It's kind of a playful thing ... combining Museo sans with a touch of Diavlo ;-)

Go Mobile: http://mobile.fosters.com Putting their hearts into it Students learn about healthy exercise and eating habits
Friday, February 28, 2014
ELIOT, Maine — The energy level at Eliot Elementary School Thursday morning was high.
"I kind of forgot to tell my parents about it until the last minute," 9-year-old William said, holding a jump rope. "I only raised $25." William, and his friend, Sean, 9, who had raised $15, agreed that the best way to keep their hearts healthy is by eating healthy. The two said they weren't the biggest fans of jump roping, but they were looking forward to the "healthy-eating station" where platters of fruits and vegetables awaited them. Theo, 9, added that exercise is also very important, as he returned to his jump rope. There were several different activity stations set up in the gym. There were jump ropes laid out for students to jump in place or while traveling back and forth along the length of the gym. At a helicopter station, one student would twirl a jump rope across the floor in a helicopter motion and each student would jump up as it came to them. There were also pairs of students holding a longer jump rope as one student jumped in the middle.
"Basketball is my favorite!" Sophia, 9, said of the morning. Hannah, 9, favored helicopter and Sophie, 9, preferred eating. "It's important to exercise so that your heart can keep pumping," 8-year-old Gillian said. "Oh, and candy is bad for your heart!" Gillian said her favorite activity that morning was eating, but after some careful consideration added four-square to her list. Danielle, 9, Eva, 8, Uma, 8, Emily, 9, Addie, 8, and Maggie, 8, were all eager to be included in sharing how much fun they were having as they quickly ran to return to jump roping. The American Heart Association reports that in addition to congenital heart problems, one in three children in the U.S. are overweight or obese. That statistic is more than three times the number seen in 1963. By promoting healthy eating and exercise habits, Jump Rope for Heart aims "to build healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke."

"I really loved the quality of the invitation. The paper it was printed on was very thick. It was definitely worth the money and I received my order really quick. I would definitely purchase stuff from this website again."
"Despite not really loving this card online, I instantly fell in love with it in person. With the pearlescent shimmer, this card is gorgeous. I really thought it would be difficult to read due to the appearance online, but the font is a bit darker in person and perfectly easy to read."
"The card is beautiful and classy looking. The color is slightly different than what is shown. The color is also different than the address labels, which I also bought. The inability to change the font of different rows in the same box along with the fact that there wasn't an option to add text to the back of the card is the reason I gave the design 4 stars instead of 5. With all that said it still is a beautiful card and I would definitely recommend it .I already received compliments of how classy the card looks."
"the ordercame fast,looks professional, good paper and printing, woud definetly reccomend, couldn't ask for more for the price"
"I would recommend this invite to everyone if your looking for an elegant design. I chose to add the pearl effect to it as it made the black background even nicer. The only complaint that I have is that the blue coloring is very faint, almost looking like its white. I wished the blue would be darker so that it could stand out against the black."

The Riverbreaks record their second album in Chapel Hill, NC. Read more
The Riverbreaks record their second album in Chapel Hill, NC.
About this project
Hi, we're the Riverbreaks, a Washington D.C. based indie rock band. For the last year we've been writing new material and road testing songs at shows in DC, New York, and around the South. Now we've entered the studio to record our new album, featuring our best songs yet.
The Project
Two weeks ago we entered Modern Recording in Chapel Hill, NC with our producer Chris Stamey to record 12 new songs. Chris, apart from being an incredible artist himself, has worked with some of our favorite bands (Whiskeytown, Roman Candle, The Rosebuds, and a bunch more). Songs we recorded include crowd favorites (Corn Blue Night, Tell the Girls, El Dorado) as well as new songs that almost no one has ever heard (Wildfire, City of Music). The arrangements will also feature guest instrumentalists.
Why $5,000?
The total cost of the project (recording, producing, mixing, mastering, art, and printing) is significantly more than $5,000. The $5,000 will cover the recording and most of the mixing, and we'll fund the remaining portion (studio musicians, mastering, art, and printing) ourselves. If we don't reach $5,000 we receive no money, so your contribution means a lot to us. As the project costs a lot more than $5,000, anything over $5,000 will really help too!
Andrew, Jesse, Ryan, Drew, and our studio drummer Logan Matheny (Roman Candle)
We've put together a great list of rewards to thank you. You can purchase our album in advance (you'll be the first to hear it!) or sign up for bigger rewards like limited edition posters and t-shirts, instrument lessons, dinner and cocktails made by the band, or house concerts. If you've got something else in mind or would like to discuss a reward just email us and we'll figure it out.

Oklahoma Sooners

Saturday, February 2, 2013
Linebacker commit solid with Sooners
By Bob Przybylo
This weekend was about putting the final touches on Oklahoma's 2013 recruiting class and setting the stage for the 2014 crop.
But the Sooners got an added bonus when three-star athlete commit
Dominique Alexander
(Tulsa, Okla./Booker T. Washington) went public for the first time in two weeks to declare he is 100 percent with OU.
Alexander had not talked about his recruitment in two weeks and had visited Arkansas and Kansas State through the last two weekends.
For Alexander and OU coach Bob Stoops, it was a matter of trust.
"Coach Stoops is like, 'We have to have trust, have to have that player-coach relationship,' " Alexander said. "He asked if I was a Sooner. I said I was, and he said I should take my visits."
While Alexander went on both visits, he said the idea of decommitting from OU never crossed his mind.
He was originally an Arkansas commit back in June before flipping to the Sooners in November. He said once Arkansas hired a coach, he would make the visit.
Another reason he went to Arkansas, he said, was because it was the birthday weekend for Arkansas'
Eric Bennett
, one of Alexander's friends who also attended Booker T. Washington.
As for the K-State visit, Alexander said he just wanted to check it out.
Tyler Lockett
Dante Barnett
are both from Booker T. Washington, and Alexander said he has been a fan of KSU for years.
But being a fan doesn't mean that's his home. He knows Norman, Okla., will be.
If there was any doubt, Alexander was solidified things one more time when OU assistants Jackie Shipp and Tim Kish visited him Friday.
"Coach Shipp came in the morning. We talked for like five minutes, but then he talked to my parents," Alexander said. "He was with them for like 90 minutes just talking.
"Then when Coach Kish came, that's when my letter of intent arrived. We went over the whole process and where I'm going to play and fit in."
Alexander said Kish told him the chances of playing early are pretty high. After losing one linebacker commit -- ESPN 300 prospect
Jordan Mastrogiovanni
(Dallas/Jesuit) -- the Sooners could not afford to lose Alexander.
"I just wanted to experience the recruiting process, but I never thought about leaving OU," Alexander said. "I know a lot of people have been saying things, but they're not in my shoes. This is a decision I've got to live with for the rest of my life."
Alexander said he is at 205 pounds and wants to be at 210 heading into the spring. All that's left now is his signature on that letter of intent Wednesday.
"The last couple of weeks have been kind of crazy, but I'm glad. It feels great," Alexander said. "I know a lot of kids wish they could have done more after they committed. Knowing you found where you want to be, looked around and still want to be there -- that's the best feeling."

Where antiterror doctrine leads
Bush lays groundwork for striking first at nations with weapons of mass destruction.
One bright afternoon in June 1981, Israeli F-16 jets streaked low across the Iraqi desert. Spotting the gleaming domes of the unfinished Osiraq nuclear reactor, the pilots decimated it with bombs - a bold preemptive strike in the name of self-preservation.
The world reaction to the strike was swift and critical, with the United States and the rest of the UN Security Council unanimously condemning it.
But now, two decades later, the Bush administration - warning of time-bomb terrorists and the spread of deadly mass weapons - proposes a far more open-ended, sweeping use of preemptive force than Israel's.
In a controversial expansion of the Bush doctrine - the unilateralist "with us or with the terrorists" foreign policy that followed Sept. 11 - the administration is making a stark argument for striking first.
"Defending against terrorism and other emerging 21st century threats may well require that we take the war to the enemy," Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said last week in a speech at the National Defense University.
In one extreme scenario - one nevertheless under consideration by US officials - the Bush administration could claim the right to overthrow the Iraqi regime of Saddam Hussein preemptively. The goal: to prevent Hussein - alone or through terrorists - from threatening the United States or its allies with weapons of mass destruction (WMD).
"This is absolutely a new wrinkle," says Kurt Campbell, of the International Security Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. "There has been no presidential doctrine on terrorism before now."
I contrast, over the past 20 years, American military strikes against terrorist targets have been limited and for the most part retaliatory:

Sorgs hope to hold on to land
Bill Sorg said last week he's doing what he can to prevent Dakota County from taking 77 acres of his land, but he's not entirely optimistic that he's going to win.
He's one of three landowners affected by the county board of commissioners' decision to take land for Spring Lake Park.
Sorg was hesitant to go on the record to discuss the matter, saying he was trying to negotiate with the county to get the best deal possible.

Sheriff Causey ResignsSubmitted by cintrek (not verified) on Wed, 02/25/2009 - 11:18am.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your dedicated service to our community. I remember when you served at Carolina Beach. When I was a teenager at CB I was date raped, beaten & kidnapped, he was 19 & I was 17. A dear friend saw me & rescued me. Sid Causey was there to take the report & worked tirelessly (nearly a year) to locate the rapist who was across state lines. I will always be grateful to Sheriff Causey for his kindness & sympathy for my situation. The man only got 10mos. jail time for assault & attempt to rape but that was the way it was for some rape cases in the 70s-the judge believed his story that he had found God (I pray he did). Sid Causey you will always be my hero.

Ladies and gentlemen, we've reached the point in popular culture where food is more of a draw than famous rock stars.
The New York Times pointed out today that the musical acts of this weekend's Great Googa Mooga festival in Brooklyn, NY, are but a footnote to the delicious mounds of food and drink that will be doled out to attendees. Oysters. Burgers. Beer. Meat on top of meat. (Instead of a Skee-Ball tent, this festival has Hamageddon pavilion, where pork fiends can "worship at the aromatic altar of bacon.")
Organizer Jonathan Mayers, who launched the Bonaroo and Outside Lands music festivals with his company Superfly Presents, said it's time for food to get top billing.
"While food and drink is in the spotlight, the music compliments it," he told ABCNews.com. "We definitely have a lighthearted, whimsical point of view with how we're going to present this."
That's reflected Googa Mooga's choice of musical acts. In one corner, you have The Roots, whose drummer Questlove is launching a line of fried chicken and catered eats called Questlove's Food. In another, Hall & Oates, one half of which (Daryl Hall) won a Webby award for his out of the box online video series that puts him in the company of diverse musicians.
"We look at these like kind of great big art projects," Mayers said. "You're seeing the passion and crossing of different interests."
That spirit is in the name. Mayers came up with the Great Googa Mooga after flipping through his collection of records with his partner.
"We found 'The Great Googa Mooga,' which came from an old New Orleans singer named Lee Dorsey," he said. "It meant holy cow. Kind of like great balls of fire. And that's what we're about, fun."

Microsoft has rushed fixes for an Internet Explorer bug after security firm FireEye Research Labs found out vulnerability in Internet Explorer versions 6 to 11.
According to FireEye, the vulnerability is present in IE6 to IE11 but attacks are targetting IE9 and above.
A 'zero-day' vulnerability is so named as attackers begin exploiting it even as the developer remains unknown of it and thus has no immediate fix.
"Threat actors" are already exploiting the vulnerability, said FireEye naming the threat campaign as "Operation Clandestine Fox".
In a statement issued over the weekend, Microsoft said that it is "aware of limited, targeted attacks that attempt to exploit a vulnerability" in its browsers.
The remote code execution vulnerability makes the IE access an object in memory that has been deleted or has not been properly allocated.
"The vulnerability may corrupt memory in a way that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user within Internet Explorer," Microsoft said. "An attacker could host a specially crafted website that is designed to exploit this vulnerability through Internet Explorer and then convince a user to view the website."
The vulnerable versions of IE, 6 to 11, formed 26.25% of the browser market in 2013, according to a research report by NetMarket Share.
However there will not be any fixes available for PCs running Windows XP, as Microsoft stopped providing support for the OS this month, leaving millions of systems vulnerable.

"Better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it."
How do some of you carry your Bersa. Is it small enough to go in a rear pocket holster?
heres a review on the Bersa Thunder CC.
In my opinion the best .380 is the one that you can shoot the best. For me that is the Bersa. But then again I only have my sisters P3AT to compare it to.
My advice would be to try several different .380's if feasible. What you gain in concealability with something like the Kelt-Tec you lose some controlability(lol, is that even a word?!). Just my .02 anyways
People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.
I love my Bersa Thunder.
I also have the P3AT, but haven't used it enough to know how reliable it is yet. I'm working on that.
Oh, and there ain't nuthin' ugly about the Thunder. They are sharp looking I think, especially with some nice wood grips.
I have a number of .380's including several Bersa's and the P-3AT. For reliability and "value for the dollar", the Bersa's are an outstanding choice. The new Bersa .380CC (Concealed Carry) model is a good choice for someone who wants something a bit smaller and easier to conceal than the regular Thunder .380, though the T-380 is not a large gun. Of course, if concealability is the main concern, the K-T P-3AT is the most obvious choice for most people.
Capt. Ray does bring up a good point to consider concerning a larger caliber than .380. Many people choose the 380 because it can be found in a smaller weapon than most 9mm's. However, with the 9mm SKYY CPX-1, K-T's P-11 (both companies are going to offer 9mm models barely larger than the P-3AT later this summer/fall) and the small Kahrs available in weapon's as small, or smaller, than most 380's, it's something to consider if you can handle the gun/caliber combo.
Someone in another post here is also talking about their Bersa Ultra Compact 9, which I also own (I'm a big Bersa fan). It's barely bigger than the T-380 and the UC-9 also has a 13 rd magazine capability compared to 7-8 shots in the 380. The UC's are also available in 40 S&W and 45 ACP for those that want a bigger bang for the buck. Again, something to consider as option if you can handle the load.
"... Americans... we want a safe home, to keep the money we make and shoot bad guys." -- Denny Crane
Kinda off thread topic but I read somewhere that Sky was having customer service issues ( not answering the phone , and forum offline ) I dont know if that is true as i have no intrest in picking up a sky ( or another kel tec for that matter ) , but if so i would re think buying a sky
Make sure you get full value out of today , Do something worthwhile, because what you do today will cost you one day off the rest of your life .
We only begin to understand folks after we stop and think .
Criminals are looking for victims, not opponents.
I didn't see anyone mention North American Arms Guardians. The size is comparable to the keltec but it is about twice as heavy. Since it is an all metal gun, I am willing to accept the extra weight. I currantly have the .380 version, but I would like to pick up one in the .32NAA caliber. It is a .380 case necked down for a .32 slug. One gun writer described it as a mini .357SIG. The numbers look impressive. Does anyone have any experience with it?
If you go with the Kel-Tec, just remember, it's DAO. Personally, I don't like DAO automatics. Sort of defeats the purpose if you ask me.
I've got a Bersa Thunder .380. And I use it for a BUG, or when I'm too lazy to carry something bigger. The problem I've seen with putting higher velocity rounds in a .380 sized platform is it typically makes them harder to control.
Mine came with the 7 round magazines, but I'm told you can get 9 round mags for them. I looked, but I found the 9 rounders just looked ugly to me. That's ok. I got a spare. ;)
Doug -
IIRC they did not even have a demo at Shot Show and it seems so far this is still a ways in the future - it does have a certain appealbut I would like to pick up one in the .32NAA caliber
Ahh - oops - I was thinking of the mini revo - sorry Duh!

The Kel-Tec P3AT has been very reliable for me. It is a great carry pistol. Small, light and easy to conceal. Mine is surprisingly accurate. I can make head shots with it on an IDPA target out to 10 - 15 yards without any trouble. Be sure to get the gen2 model!
I've always liked the looks of the NAA Guardian .380. Might pick one up in the future. I like my guns to be made of metal. Just not a big polymer fan. PastorDoug, how does that little thing shoot and how do you carry it?
In God we trust, everyone else keep your hands where I can see them.
Rights are like muscles: If you don't excersise them they slowly disappear.
It is amazingly accurate for such a short barreled gun. In fact, I just got back from the range, I took my dad for a late father's day, and I put about 50 through it. I don't have any trouble controlling it and I can hit center mass easily out to about 10 yards and my hand can cover the group. It is perfect for its purpose.
As for carrying it. I just tuck it in the front pocket.
Wow, I never imagined that I would get so many responses to my question. It seems to me that the general consensus is that, for the money, the Bersa Thunder is my best investment. Thanks again to everyone that posted pics, that really helped out a lot.
I have several .380s, a Browning 1910, a FN 1922, a Sig P230, a PPK and a 1st Generation Keltec .380. Great little guns, but I only shoot and carry ball ammo in them as in the short barreled .380, most hollow point ammo won't expand and if it does, the penetration is so lacking that it does not penitrate deep enough to hit vital organs. So ball ammo it is.
Jungle Work
Popular choices of .380;
Keltec P3AT
NAA Guardian
Walther PPK
Colt mustang/pocketlite
Bersa Thunder
Sig 230/232
If price wasn't a concern I would go with the Seecamp.
If smallest and lightest was priority than Keltec.
If I wanted a bug I would go with either the PPK or Colt (double action model, whichever one that is)
For a shooter I would go with the Bersa for a bargain and the Sig otherwise.
There is only one .380 that I can recommend...

"The orange juice makes this a tasty dish. Even people who are not fond of sweet potatoes like this one. Give it a try!"
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

6 sweet potatoes
3/4 cup boiling water
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter
1/2 tablespoon orange zest
1 tablespoon orange juice
3/4 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
3 orange slices, halved
I thought the directions were a little confusing: 'Add sweet potatoes, boiling water, and salt to a large saucepan' should read 'Add sweet potatoes and salt to boiling water.' My family does not like SWEET sweet potatoes, so I omitted the corn syrup in step 2, and used the juice of a whole orange instead. In step 3, I drained the potatoes after cooking, without saving any liquid, since I did not need it. I prepared the potatoes ahead of time and put them into a casserole with the orange juice sauce and pieces of oranges. I also added 1/2 c. chopped pecans. I covered the dish and heated the dish in the oven (350) for about 1/2 hour instead of finishing on the stove-top.
absolutely delicious!

N.D. Supreme Court hears UND nickname case
By Tu-Uyen Tran, Grand Forks Herald
One of the questions in the state Supreme Court hearing Tuesday involving UND's Fighting Sioux nickname is what the state's intent was when it agreed to the settlement with the NCAA in October 2007?
The NCAA didn't want UND to use the nickname because it considers American Indian nicknames offensive.

Event Name
- OR - Select an option belowSlow-smoked pork and ribs are the hallmark of Sheila's BBQ, Conch, and More, a bright-yellow 'cue and seafood shack at 12th Avenue and Dixie Highway in Lake Worth. The place is little more than a single-room kitchen with a takeout window and a barrel smoker parked out back. The tiny yellow building is completely ensconced in the scent of wood smoke. Out front is a takeout window and a modest outdoor seating area composed of about five benches and a few stone planters decorated with fishing nets and wooden signs pointing toward Nassau and Key West. Try the chopped pork sandwich, overflowing with hunks of pink-tinged meat and the peppery-sweet sauce that Sheila's makes in house. Or grab some conch, which Sheila's does fried with a side sweet mustard sauce, as doughy fritters, or in a spicy lime-marinated salad made with Scotch bonnet peppers.

Thermotex Platinum
Par Jenny
de Alberta
I am using now this Thermotex Platinum about 3 weeks morning and evening for 45 min each time. I have inflamation in my shoulder and I have to say it is helping, I feel beter. Only thing is it is hard to keep it on shoulder.
Could Be Better
Par Crystal
de FORT ERIE
I previously bought the Gold Edition, and I like it except that it doesn't bend. Well, the Platinum does sort of bend, but the heating surface area of each pad is really small, and the temperature doesn't get as warm. I'm not sure if it is defective or if the temperature is lower by design. Only the middle of each of the three elements gets any heat, but it is still better than nothing. I use both pads together, one on my back and one up higher for the neck and shoulder area. I'm sure they have kept me from seizing up with all the snow shovelling I've been doing in spite of chronic pain in these areas. Anything that keeps me moving is a help and this product helps a lot.The company stands behind their product from my experience. There was a problem with the switch on the Gold pad and the company was excellent to deal with. They even sent e refund for the postage I paid to send it for repair.

I bought 4 of these at Christmas. One for me and the others for my son's and my friend. We all have problems that these have helped. My friend has chronic lower back pain that he says is not a problem anymore. He sits at a computer all day at work and then comes home to sit at one. He now wants to buy another to keep at work. I have lower back pain that this has helped.
did not help at all

Followed the directions I have fibromyagia and chronic pain everywhere. I taped and watched over and over before using. Another product for not a severe did-ease but rather for those minor aches and pain. I have terrible pain on my toe and knees and this did not even roll properly so to distribute the heat. So stiff and not ergonomical to manurve I give up don't have a money tree but so desparate to find help with some pain reliefTwo stars because its a great heat pad and that is it Did not help with lower back injury nor with frozen shoulder nor with surgery on toe. i would recommend for those parents who have young todlers or children as the heat is somewhat relaxing if fighting flu or cold. I wrap my cocker on his back to give relief to his back when he chases balls for hours. what a world..people forget karma

I so wanted to love this!

I used this product for about 10 days. My main disappointment was the heat didn't seem consistent. It was either scorching on high or barely warm on low. I just felt it wasn't heating properly at all. After a trial period it just wasn't good enough for the money and I had no pain relief whatsoever. The product does look well made and I liked the flexibility and how it could conform to different body areas. If the heat aspect would have been better I think it could be a winner.

I bought the Thermotex very sceptically last winter. I suffer from Chronic pain in my shoulder. I have had 4 surgeries and am in line for my 5th surgery on the same shoulder. I am 37 and the mother of 5 plus i work full time. My pain is so life consuming that there are days I literally cannot get out of bed without a large dose or narcotics. When i bought the heating pad i was pleasantly surprised at how it works. IT heats up quickly and the heat is so wonderful. I literally sleep on this pad every night with it wrapped around my arm or under my shoulder. I take it to work where i pass it around to anyone with an ache, it warms you to the core and the relief is so wonderful. You can feel the heat in your whole body. Such a wonderful comfort. I literally have used the heat pad every single day since i bought it. I still use my pain meds but not as many and I find this extremely helpful. Thank you!

I purchased this last year for myself and love it! I have used it for my back, hips, legs, ankle, arms, etc. It heats quickly and does a great job of relaxing sore muscles. I'm buying one for my Mother this time around.

Great product
Par MARIA

I purchased my Thermotex 1.5 year ago. One of the unit did not heat up; therefore I called the company. Next day I received a new one sent by express mail. The director of the company called for follow up if I received it. She told me that I don't have to rush to return the other one just when I feel better because I fight cancer. What a great customer service. I suffer from lot of pain due to chemotherapy and other pain caused by cancer. This is an excellent product to reduce the pain naturally. Also, I read an article from a Japanese doctor that 20 years ago he had 4 stage cancer and he used infrared pad to fight his cancer. Today, he is still alive. I use my pad every day. Thank you Thermorex.

Great therapeutic system
Par Cheryl
My Anesthetist Pain Management Dr. recommended me this for my back pain caused by herniated discs with nerve impingement in my lumbar spine. After using this platinum infrared heating pad my MRI results were much improved. I have been using this pad for 6 years and would never use a heating pad as this pad doesn't burn your skin yet penetrates almost 2-1/2" into the muscles and nerves to provide increase circulation and pain relief. The platinum is flexible and wraps around back or knee or arm. The gold pad is rigid but just as effective. Great buy!Thanks Thermotex
