Foundation Calls Foul Over Coach
The Freedom From Religion Foundation is charging officials at the University of Wisconsin-Madison with stonewalling the Foundation's request to investigate a religion question posed to prospective UW Women's basketball recruits.
Among the facts collected for a dossier on each prospective recruit by the UW women's basketball program is "Religion." Foundation president Anne Gaylor said she believes this may be unlawful, and, at minimum, considers it "certainly inappropriate."
This is the third major complaint the Foundation, a national watchdog group based in Madison, has made to the UW-Madison about coach Jane Albright, a self-described born-again Christian.
The Foundation protested when the coach arranged an exhibition game with the Christian Athletes-in-Action in November 1995, permitting religionists to distribute proselytizing material to the crowd during halftime, and to hold a religious postgame service. The Foundation also notified the UW that the coach was using campus mail to proselytize, and had instituted regular pre-game prayers.
The Division of Inter-Collegiate Athletes responded to the Foundation's complaint with a June 14, 1996 "policy clarification," saying it will maintain an environment "free of harassment or intimidation based on religion beliefs or practices." The statement concludes: "The mission of the Division does not include sponsoring religious events or activities."
However, the very month the clarification was issued, the Foundation was contacted by the family of a young girl enrolled at the coach's summer basketball camp for 4th to 12th graders, reporting Albright included proselytizing sessions. Following the Foundation's request that this be investigated, UW-Madison Chancellor David Ward wrote the Foundation on June 26, 1996, promising that "future camps will not include any policy violations."
"It does appear that Coach Albright is uneducable on this issue," Gaylor noted. "Wouldn't she be happier working at a Christian college?"
Gaylor also expressed dismay at the "prying" quality of the questions in the dossier, which records personal information on the prospect's "boy friend," "best friend," and "kind of car," as well as religion.
Albright told the Capital Times (Oct. 4) that if a "girl" would mention that she attends church every Sunday, Albright would arrange a visit to church if the recruit visited campus.
Backlash Begins Over Bigoted Boy Scouts
A backlash against the discriminatory policies of Boy Scouts of America is sweeping the nation, following the 5-4 ruling on June 28 by the U.S. Supreme Court affirming the club's constitutional right to exclude gays as members and troop leaders.
Over the past 20 years, BSA has aggressively denied memberships both to gays and to boys whose families are not religious. Gay groups are joining the call of freethinkers to lobby school districts to stop sponsoring Boy Scout troops. Associated Press reports that schools, which give Scouts many special perks, sponsored 10,653 Boy Scout and Cub Scout troops last year--about 9% of all troops.
According to USA Today (Oct. 9), Boy Scouts of South Florida just lost nearly $350,000 in public money and charitable aid, after a "domino effect" of denial of funds from traditional supporters. United Way of Broward County, the Broward County government and the cities of Miami Beach, Manors and Fort Lauderdale have severed ties with Boy Scouts.
The state of Connecticut has dropped Boy Scouts from the list of charities state employees can contribute to through payroll deductions, prompting a retaliatory lawsuit by Boy Scouts.
A community school district in Manhattan has withdrawn support of Scouts. The Minneapolis school system in early October voted to stop sponsoring two dozen troops with almost 900 members.
School Board member Joann Elder, Madison, Wisconsin, who has a gay son, is asking to re-examine a district policy charging Scouts the same low rental fee charged to nondiscriminatory groups. Following a complaint by the Freedom From Religion Foundation, the school board in 1994 started charging rent to Scout troops.
The United Way of Evanston, Illinois, voted in September to stop its $5,000 annual donation.
The school district in Framingham, Massachusetts, voted in September to end Scout recruitment through its schools. "It may be that the Scouts won the battle but end up losing the war," town manager George King told USA Today.
City Council members in Tucson, Arizona, voted on Sept. 25 to cut public funding to Boy Scouts and any other organization deemed discriminatory. That will cost Catalina Council $20,000 next year. The city may also withhold its $1.7 million contribution to the local chapter of United Way. But a policy change banning employee donations to Boy Scouts via the city of Tempe caused such an uproar it was reversed on October 5.
The ACLU filed suit in August to revoke a 50-year lease with the city of San Diego, which rents Balboa Park to the Scouts for $1 a year.
About 24 chapters of United Way, whose 1,400 chapters contribute more than $8.7 million to Scouts, have ended or redirected donations.
A backlash against the backlash is also occurring. U.S. Rep. Tom Tancredo, R-CO, introduced the Scouts Honor Act to protect Scouts from punitive measures by any entity receiving federal funds. Several conservative Arizona lawmakers vowed to support legislation to penalize cities that "discriminate" against Scouting.
Youth Today recently published an article by Patrick Boyle claiming that BSA's stance against gays is a "case of money and Mormons." Boyle notes the Mormon Church sponsors about 31,000 Scout units--more than any other group, accounting for 12% of all troops and involving 400,000 boys. The Mormon church filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court supporting the Boy Scout anti-gay policy. In total, 65% of all Scout units are sponsored by religious organizations, according to the BSA.
"If the Boy Scouts stand for discrimination, they should stand alone," the Freedom From Religion Foundation reiterated in letters to public officials, the United Way, and various school organizations following the June decision.
"We urge freethinkers to continue pressuring school districts and government to sever ties with Boy Scouts, based on the group's religion-based bigotry against both freethinking boys and gays," said Foundation president Anne Gaylor.
Let's Dispense with Christian Funerals
Residents support humanist book display
"Library Display Criticized" was the heading of a recent letter to the editor published by The Columbian, a newspaper in Vancouver, Wash. The letter read in part:
"Upon entering the Cascade Park Community Library ... I was disturbed by the blatant promotion of atheist/secular humanist authors and books displayed prominently in the front window. Included were atheist authors such as Richard Dawkins, Bill Nye, Christopher Hitchens, with books titled Living Without God, The Portable Atheist and Women Without Superstition."
The letter continued: "I was thinking to myself, is this even constitutional from an American First Amendment perspective? Also, even if it is legal, is this something the taxpayers of Vancouver would approve of, considering it is their millions in tax revenue that keep the library up and running?"
Well, this "unconstitutional" display was put up by the Humanists of Greater Portland, which has been placing displays in public libraries and colleges for more than 10 years. This was only the second time that patrons have voiced a concern about our displays. (The other time was when some church members questioned the display, but then they put up their own bible-based display a month or two later.)
We set up our book display at the Cascade Park Library in early January. The very next day the librarian called asking us if we had a list of the books in the case. She said that a number of people had already expressed interest in the display.
One of our members quickly made copies of the list and dropped them off at the library. One library patron commented on our HGP Facebook page that she "almost cried with joy" when she saw the titles of the books in the display case.
The letter critical of our display was published in the paper late in January, and the online comments immediately poured in, coming from as far away as New Jersey and New York. The online response was overwhelmingly positive and supportive:
• "Fantastic! I know the library has featured differing philosophies and religions in the past, so in fairness this is a good thing."
• "Libraries are among the last bastions of free speech and the open exchange of ideas in our culture. We cannot grow as human beings unless we challenge and question, and allow others to challenge and question our received beliefs and opinions. I applaud the staff at Cascade Park . . . for their willingness to initiate a conversation about true freedom of (and from) religion. (I am not an atheist, by the way.)"
The icing on the cake was a follow-up letter to the editor from the executive director of the Fort Vancouver Regional Library District. She wrote in part:
"I was heartened to read the many online comments about the letter that articulated the important mission FVRL has as a public library in supporting diverse points of view and interest through our collections, services and programs."
The director continued: "Public libraries exist to offer access to ideas and information from a variety of perspectives. A democracy can only be healthy and vigorous if we both learn and explore our differences as well as our common ground. If we are fulfilling our responsibility, FVRL libraries will promote understanding, prompt a conversation, encourage a healthy debate, and — yes — sometimes strike a nerve. It's what good public libraries do."
Our humanist group has been overwhelmed by the response of the citizens of Vancouver, the staff at FVRL and the online comments in support of our display at their library. We hope the person who wrote the initial letter to the editor criticizing our display will apply through the library to set up a display of books that support his position.
The library director said it best: "Public libraries exist to offer access to ideas from a variety of perspectives."

Member among hundreds returning Eagle awards
This is Maine FFRF member Meredith "Dick" Springer's letter in September to the Boy Scouts of America:
In 1943 I proudly received my Eagle Scout badge from the Boy Scouts of America. At that time I was a sincere religious believer.
As I later critically examined my beliefs I realized that I no longer could honestly believe in God. I fail to understand how reaching this conclusion made me unfit to belong to your organization. Now my self-respect as a nonbeliever as well as my conscience compel me to join hundreds of others in reluctantly returning my badge to the BSA to express my disgust with your discriminatory policies.
The Boy Scouts of America accepts for membership all boys except those in two groups that are unpopular in much of America, gays and nonbelievers in God. Stigmatizing these groups clearly sends a message to your members that only reinforces prejudices many already have. The BSA also denies a religion badge to boys who are Unitarians because their church passed a resolution in 1992 opposing your discriminatory practices.
Many scouting associations around the world do not require their members to have specific religious beliefs. In the United States, the Girl Scouts of the USA voted overwhelmingly in 1993 to allow its members to substitute another word or phrase for God in its oath, saying that the change was "a very strong statement that Girl Scouts . . . have strength in diversity and that we are an inclusive organization." The Girl Scouts also permits lesbian girls to participate.
The BSA has never established a relationship with the Girl Scouts, but it has partnered with American Heritage Girls, a new organization formed by intolerant opponents of the nondiscriminatory policies of the Girl Scouts, with a "memorandum of mutual support [that] recognizes the common values and goals of both organizations."
As a private organization the BSA can do anything it wants, but as an American icon comparable to apple pie, it has a special moral obligation to teach the best American values. These values include religious tolerance and recognizing the worth of all of us.
Sincerely yours,
Meredith N. Springer
The Feb. 10 Maine Sunday Telegram also published Springer's thoughts on the issue (which he'd sent as a letter to the editor) as an op-ed. As of Feb. 9, 222 Eagle Scouts had shared their photos and letters renouncing their Eagle awards on the website Eagle Scouts Returning Our Badges.
FFRF opposes vouchers for religious, private schools
FFRF Staff Attorney Patrick Elliott's op-ed opposing school vouchers ran in Wisconsin's two largest newspapers — the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and the Wisconsin State Journal — in late January. It was also picked up by numerous other publications and websites.
With voucher advocates trumpeting "National School Choice Week," it is a fitting time to examine the proposed expansion of private school vouchers in Wisconsin. Some politicians are intent on slowly doing away with our public education system in favor of privatized education paid for with taxpayer money.
Voucher money largely flows to religious schools. In the newly expanded "choice" of schools in Racine, 10 out of the 11 schools are parochial schools. Based on a review of Department of Public Instruction data on the Milwaukee Parental Choice Program, more than 21,000 of nearly 25,000 enrolled students at the beginning of this school year attended readily identifiable religious schools.
This amounts to more than $133 million in taxpayer money going to religious institutions in Milwaukee this school year alone.
Funding private and religious schools through vouchers is an end run around our constitutionally created public education system. The Wisconsin Constitution requires the Legislature to "provide by law for the establishment of district schools, which shall be as nearly uniform as practicable; and such schools shall be free and without charge . . . and no sectarian instruction shall be allowed therein."
Proposals to continue to chip away at public education and expand vouchers by increasing the geographic area, income limits and funding are contrary to our long-valued public education system.
Schools do not exist just to benefit parents. They serve to educate the next generation to create an educated citizenry and to ensure the vitality of the state. This is a public good supported by all, including those who do not have school-aged children. This social value is recognized by our constitutionally created public schools and our compulsory education laws.
While parents pick the school of their choice in using vouchers, taxpayers pay the bills. And taxpayers have no means of holding voucher schools accountable. Low performing voucher schools, which have little state oversight, can do as they please. Voucher schools are not governed by publicly elected school boards that have to answer to constituents.
Some of the Milwaukee choice schools are not holding up their duty to provide a comprehensive education. Take, for instance, the Clara Mohammed School. According to its IRS filings, the school's purpose is to engage in "a Qur'an-guided journey toward active global citizenship." It is funded almost exclusively through vouchers. In 2011, only 0.8 percent of its students (1 out of 123) tested proficient in math and 5.7 percent tested proficient in reading on state exams.
Other Milwaukee choice schools are using unscientific and outdated curriculum from fundamentalist Christian textbook publishers such as A Beka Books. Carter's Christian Academy in Milwaukee describes the A Beka materials, covering normal school subjects, as being "presented from God's point of view." Of the 69 Carter's Christian students tested in 2011, none tested proficient in reading by state standards and only three tested proficient in math. IRS records show the principal got $109,000 in 2011 compensation.
Both the Clara Mohammed School and Carter's Christian Academy have increased enrollment this year. While they enroll a small number of students, they are a symptom of a larger problem. The schools can take public money and teach what they want. The schools do not have to have licensed teachers or even safe outdoor space for students to play. Parents will continue to send their students to these schools, whether for religious reasons or because they mistakenly believe school leaders are up to the task of providing a sound education.
The voucher school program needs elimination rather than expansion.
Meet a foxhole atheist
By Keith Taylor
To start with, I am neither evil nor unpatriotic. I served my county, in uniform, for 22 years, 9 months and 11 days.
As a Navy cryptologist, both enlisted and as an officer, I held the nation's highest security clearance. I have voted in almost every election since Truman and Eisenhower.
As a civilian, I do the requisite community work to be considered a good citizen. The local Optimist group once dubbed me Optimist of the Year. I participate in elections, often walking the precinct for candidates of my choice. I make phone calls, at my own expense, to people in the battleground states.
I believe in the First Amendment so much that I have used it to defend my opinion on a myriad of things. For many years, hundreds of my opinions appeared in Navy Times, a Gannett weekly. Not all pleased everybody, but all were based on verified facts. Other pieces appeared in papers and magazines across the country. I could go on and on, but you get the idea.
I insist I'm a good citizen, even a thinking one. Still, I carry the onus of not being worthy of respect, and it is for a very strange reason: I just cannot swallow stories such as the Earth being created in seven days, a woman talking to a snake or that whopper about a man living in the belly of a big fish for three days.
I am an atheist.
Nor am I mollified by the 21st century claims such as, "Oh, they're just apocryphal. You don't need to take them literally." Oh no? Ask any kid about the stories they teach him in Sunday school.
Defense of weird ideas comes with attacks on science and scientists. By the fourth century, Alexandria, Egypt, was home to the most impressive library ever seen. It held scientific and historical documents, many of which contradicted bible stories.
The custodian of the library was Hypatia, a mathematician and scientist. Carl Sagan, the magnificent chronicler of science, told us Hypatia was beset by a mob, followers of Cyril, the archbishop of Alexandria. The mob raked her flesh from her body with abalone shells. This magnificent woman was mostly forgotten.
Cyril was made a saint.
To this day, publicly denying a belief in the "accepted" religion of any area will ensure one's never being able to hold office. This is as true of Christianity as it is of Islam, Buddhism or any other religion.
Say you're an atheist just once and your world changes. The Boy Scouts won't have you. According to polls, more than half our population would not vote for you, not even if you were as smart as Einstein, as wise as Bertrand Russell or as uniquely American as Mark Twain.
It matters not that atheists in general are in league with the members of what is arguably our country's most prestigious group, the National Academy of Sciences. According to a recent poll, 93% of its members do not believe in a personal god. Such observations are blithely dismissed with the old bromide, "Oh, scientists don't know everything."
Of course they don't, and every scientist has to realize that, but they do not have to believe in myths.
About half the country seems to agree with former president Richard Nixon. Some years ago he replied to a question that he did not think a person could be president without a belief in God.
His vice president and successor as president emphasized it further. In 1988, George H.W. Bush was asked by a Chicago atheist journalist about his views on atheism. Bush replied that in his opinion atheists couldn't be patriotic.
The comment has been repeated across the country, even in The New York Times. Bush has never denied it.
The consensus is everybody has to believe in something, and that something better be supernatural.
The country which has idolized the man who said, "I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death" now demands we all follow the same course when it comes to accepting things without proof.

Absolved from confusion
"I hope and suspect that you have not moved into unnecessary confusion," read my grandfather's letter in troubled script.
I am "blessed" in the statistical sense to have a father, who, despite being a church elder, will agree to read and discuss selections of Richard Dawkins' writing after only mild coercion, and a mother who volunteers as a Sunday School teacher only out of a profound desire to avoid interaction with the vociferous social conservatives who frequent the adult classes.
I suppose it is fitting that my grandfather's Presbyterian ministry embraces an idealistic simplification of God as the embodiment of love and not the terrifying entity that his denominational fellows theorize entertains himself by dangling sinners over a flaming abyss.
But despite my grandfather's remarkable open-mindedness, he was alarmed when my father inadvertently revealed that I, his supposedly pious granddaughter — whom he personally baptized with water he collected from the Jordan River — was not the staunch Christian he anticipated.
When his concerned letter arrived a few weeks later, my parents advised me to downplay the issue for convenience. Couldn't I, they pleaded, simply feign agreement? Easy for them to say.
The early emergence of my atheism could stunt my relationship with my grandfather. Here I was presented with the perfect gateway to honest, open dialogue. Besides, as a casual skim through the Old Testament will reveal, lying has adverse consequences.
So began our tense correspondence, an ongoing dialogue on belief. In a stream of lengthy letters, he expressed his confusion over why, in my WASP-y world free of creationism, homophobia, sexism and the other oft-targeted shortcomings of religion, I am so opposed to the church.
I desperately tried to articulate that his beloved moderate institutions, though conceivably palatable, enforce the notion of religion as an indispensable component of society, thus shielding fundamentalist faiths from criticism and letting hordes of potentially great future scientists and thinkers receive a life of miseducation under the guise of respect for religious diversity.
He remained steadfast in his belief that Christian education spreads essential virtues. I found myself struggling to find a delicate way to express that my Sunday School experience enlightened me only to new techniques of eye-rolling.
I labored over each letter so as to completely address his questions while remaining both respectful of his life's work. Amid piles of discarded drafts, I questioned whether it was my place to express even courteous disapproval over this wise, gentle man's philosophy. Awaiting his responses, I imagined him poring over my tortured writings, insulted and mired in disappointment.
At his funeral, I sat sobbing in a sea of Presbyterian ministers arguing over the mechanics of when, in the biblically unaddressed circumstance of a fatal coma, the soul leaves the body. "Are you the atheist?" demanded one of the many pastors there. "Your grandfather used to read parts of your letters at some of our meetings. It meant so much to him that one of his grandchildren took an interest in discussing the subject."
In a sense far different from the one my grandfather had in mind, he had absolved me of "unnecessary confusion." I now know with certainty that no decent individual will see ignominy in freethought or free dialogue.

Meet a Pragmatic Staffer
Name: Lisa Strand.
Where and when I was born: I was born and raised in Wisconsin, sometime before the Summer of Love, but not so much before as to have enjoyed it.
Education: I have a B.A. in political science from the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities.
Family: My husband and I have been married for nearly 17 years, and we have an 11-year-old daughter. Therefore, we also have two cats and a guinea pig, and we're lobbied regularly for a puppy.
My previous job responsibilities were: I've been in not-for-profit (association) management for about 25 years, including serving for 15 years as executive director of the Wisconsin Library Association. I've also served in volunteer leadership roles for several nonprofit organizations.
It was hard to leave WLA (librarians are more fun than you can imagine), but I was looking for a new challenge, and I'm so glad for the opportunity at FFRF.
What I do at FFRF: As the newest staff member, I'm still learning and developing my role as director of operations. In a nutshell, I'll be taking on a lot of the day-to-day management of the office so that Annie Laurie and Dan can be freed for more strategic duties that will further FFRF's mission.
What I like best about it here: The people! Annie Laurie and Dan and the entire staff here are just great — so knowledgeable and professional. I had the opportunity to meet one-on-one with each of my co-workers during my first two weeks here, and they made me feel so welcomed. They have continued to help me learn the ropes with great patience.
I spend a lot of time thinking about: The pragmatic, rather than the philosophical.
I spend no time thinking about: Eternal damnation.
My religious upbringing was: In a rural, Norwegian Lutheran church, complete with annual lutefisk suppers and basement church ladies.
My doubts about religion started: I was probably about 13 when I thought it seemed very unlikely that, say, rural Chinese would have the "benefit" of learning about Christ and why should they be punished with hell?
Things I like: Gardening, household projects, work, fun with my family, animals, knitting, reading, being outside.
Things I smite: I have many pet peeves, but I don't smite much.
Beaton adds lawsuit to activism
I met local attorney Peter Martin at a First Amendment meeting during "Occupy," when he mentioned that he was concerned about the prayers before our city council in Eureka, Calif. He said he would work on the issue but needed a plaintiff. Of course, I volunteered and promptly forgot all about it.
Peter filed the complaint/lawsuit on Jan. 25. The lawsuit simply asks the council to stop having an invocation, sectarian or not, before meetings, and for Mayor Frank Jager to stop holding "Mayor's Prayer Breakfasts." He held one last year and had another scheduled for Feb. 7.
The second prayer breakfast was held, although this year (likely spurred by the lawsuit), a rental fee of $700 was charged for use of the city-owned building. Last year, space was provided for free.
The issue made the front page of the local paper Jan. 31. The council did not make a decision on how to proceed at its Feb. 5 meeting. At this time, it looks like Mayor Jager wants to contest the lawsuit, but the decision will be made by the council and the city manager. Fighting it will cost the city a lot, and I really hope they will just drop the invocation.
There has not been an invocation at the last few meetings, so just stopping prayer should not be a big step. Under a former mayor, and with threats from the ACLU, there were no invocations at council meetings for a couple of years. This just started under Mayor Jager and a new city attorney.
There have been many letters to the editor, some supporting the lawsuit and me personally (as I am well-known in our small town} and some from the "usual suspects" who write about the wonders of prayer. Most have been quite civil. I'm very proud of our community, as I have had not one nasty phone call, and my number is right there in the phone book.
[Editor's note: The Jan. 28 North Coast Journal quoted the mayor as saying, "Peter Martin, he's a good buddy of mine. We'll invite him to the prayer breakfast. And if he doesn't come, we'll pray for him."]

Doesn't surprise me the least. It's only a matter of time now before Iran/North Korea smuggle a nuclear bomb into a Western country and blow it up.
For sparking up some additional discussion in the general forum... The associated press is now reporting that North Korea may have just conducted its first nuclear weapon test.
http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories...MPLATE=DEFAULTSEOUL, South Korea (AP) -- South Korean government officials said North Korea performed its first-ever nuclear weapons test Monday, the South's Yonhap news agency reported.
More is going on listening to the Drudge Report (http://www.drudgereport.com/) right now.
What is everyone's thoughts on this situation?
Doesn't surprise me the least. It's only a matter of time now before Iran/North Korea smuggle a nuclear bomb into a Western country and blow it up.
It's very bad news indeed.
If North Korea thinks that having a nuclear weapon will keep the U.S. away if they decide to invade South Korea.. then the whole reagon is screwed.
You have China on N. Korea's side; using them like a political football to just plain mess with U.S. foreign policy, while at the same time having their own forces posed for a violent military take over of Taiwan again with the U.S. military the only thing preventing that from happenning.
Then you have the ongoing hatred between Japan and China from WW2.. Japan doing things to Chinese people that made the Jewish holocause look like a unfortunately misunderstanding. (wiping out villages for sex slaves, biological warefare for depopulation purposes, medical experimentation, intentional starvation of entire reagons, torture, chemical weapons, and lots of happy fun time stuff like that)
Now we have both Japan and China with nuclear weapons with insano N.Korea between both of them hapily shooting 'test' rockets over Japan and into the pacific ocean, which now just happens to have nukes of themselves.
Then as icing on the cake you have the 'muslim extremists' operating in that general reagon. For instance being responsable for several bombings of nightclubs etc etc.
A whole bunch of fun. The situation is f----d.
That's exactly how it is, drag. Frankly, I wonder how this messed up world will be like, even 20 years from now, if my own children by then will be able to walk safely on this planet or not. Over here in the Caribbean we have Chavez breathing down our neck, just waiting for the right opportunity to strike...we're nothing but sitting ducks right now, defenseless as usual.
People can say what they want, but I support the U.S. and what it deems right for the rest of us. Letting some whacko like that Mohjinanaina or whatever the hell he's called in Iran take control of this world is asking for serious trouble. May God spare us all from their tyranny.
Speaking of Chavez...
Now only if he would talk about how Microsoft smells of sulfur... His views on Linux and software seem to be the only good coming out of his administration.
I was listenning to the BBC on NPR and they interviewed this guy who was a ex-North Korean national. He is a journalist now and was one of the hundreds of thousands of people thrown in prison and beaten for several years before he made it out of the coutnry.
He was asked about his opinion of how the N. Korean people are reacting to the idea that they now had Nuclear weapons. He said that it probably doesn't make a difference since the government has been telling them they have had nuclear weapons for many years. It's part of the standard propaganda program. Also he said that nobody cares what the government says as it has very little impact on their day to day lives.
The way he figured it is that the government regime is currently in meltdown mode. Now the people are now literally starving to death, instead of just the normal starving they are used to. Right now it doesn't affect the elites that run the country but eventually with the new sanctions that they are going to have put on their country the elite are going to start running out of stuff also.
He said that the atomic bomb is like Kim Jong's holy grail, or his personal version of the 'space race' or something like that. That Kim figured that if got to that point then he'd be able to turn things around for himself with a nuclear arsinal at his disposal.
Seems to me he is ripe for political assination or military coop from his own country. He is a loony, but I would hate to see some insane general get his hands on nukes, or the country going into complete meltdown and the nukes 'disapear'.

Wanted a SPD road shoe and these matched the rest of my kit. I'm using them with PD-A600 pedals and really liking them. My bad weather (aka hand me down) MTN SPD shoes have a narrow toe with no vent hole or ratchet strap so I very much appreciate the features of these Shimanos. I usually wear a US 11 street shoe but wanted these to fit snug so went with a 45 and they fit great; although the wider toe is not very aero these let me wiggle my toes. My feet are a bit wide with a high bridge; width wise they are perfect but they can cut in a bit on the top of my foot just ahead of my ankle, with careful placement of the tongue I've minimized this. The snug fit means they feel a bit uncomfortable at first but after about 2km things seem to mesh and I don't even notice my feet for the rest of the ride. I use them mostly for my 24km round trip commute but have also logged a couple 40km trips in comfort. Weight wise I guess they are a bit heavier than others but I haven't noticed any issues with my 90-100 cadence and brief 110+. I typically use my other shoes for colder weather but these can be used to about -10C with a basic shoe cover and good on their own above 6C; I've ridden in 30C and foot temp and moisture is well controlled. I was hesitant to buy shoes online but found these here on sale for 1/3 the price of something local and comparable. They're a great shoe and for the price an unbelievable bargain.

OK for up to 25 miles. Beyond that they really hurt the balls of my feet. Pain extended into the next day. Moved the cleats around to three different positions, but did not help. As a completely objective test, I wore one of these shoes and one of my old ones on the same ride; the foot with this shoe hurt, and the other one didn't. Got one size larger than normal, and the fit was fine. Wanted to like 'em, but they just don't work for me.

Comments about Shimano SH-R087 Road Shoes:
I wear a size 12 and ordered a size 48 as a cross reference. A standard width shoe would accomodate a mildly wide foot.Nice square toe box, that won't jam the toes together. I reccomend down sizing a metric shoe size.

A low price perfect size... too happy with that.
Best Uses
Comments about Shimano SH-R087 Road Shoes:
I bought these because I owned the mountain version (M087) and liked them a lot; the only difference is the sole of these is tailored for the road.
I've always liked Shimano shoes because they have a really big toebox, have stiff soles, and have proven extremely durable. These are no different.
These shoes have just the right amount of flex in the sole and the ratchet mechanism is completely replaceable.
The only faults I can make with these shoes are: they are slightly heavy (some notice weight, some don't), the in-souls were slightly long on mine (size 48) which caused them to wrinkle at the toes (solved by trimming small amount of soul), and on one shoe the stitching of two panels together isn't as neat as the other side, which causes it to have a rough edge against the skin (only noticeable if I think about it). This is more of a quality issue, and the only reason I'm not giving them 5/5.

Best Uses
Comments about Shimano SH-R087 Road Shoes:
I was looking for a modestly priced pair of shoes for spin class. These certainly fit the bill price wise but I was initially concerned about the buckle. It actually works very well and allows for a comfortable adjustment of the top strap. All in all a very high performing, comfortable shoe for casual riding and stationary cycling.

These road bike shoes were too good a price to pass up. I like the ratchet system for tightening a lot. Not the most stylish but expect to pay about $100 more for looks. These get the job done.
Best Uses
Comments about Shimano SH-R087 Road Shoes:
This is a good quality shoe. I was disappointed when I had to return it because of the width. My feet are a little narrow, but not so bad that I have to order narrow shoes. My feet were swimming in the toe box of these shoes though. If your feet are on the wide side, this is a fantastic shoe.
Best Uses
Comments about Shimano SH-R087 Road Shoes:
Great cycling shoes for beginners to advanced cyclists. Great value for these shoes that easily would have costed 2x as much elsewhere. Very stylist and durable. Lastly, these shoes are very comfortable and stay secured why you are riding.

Nice! if you can help solving the 2.6.38 power saga once and for all, you will always be remembered!
Phoronix: A Plethora Of Linux Power Tests Are On The Way
Nailing down the Linux kernel power regressions (see Linux Has Major Power Regression and Another Major Linux Power Regression Spotted) has made a big step forward this weekend. Not only to fix up these major kernel power regressions that are hitting many mobile Linux users, but to look further into the state of Linux power management is now possible and to closely analyze other areas of the Linux stack to find other areas for improvement...
Nice! if you can help solving the 2.6.38 power saga once and for all, you will always be remembered!
Heh, eagerly awaiting the LKML mail listing 10+ commits causing power regressions
Since apparently nobody else is measuring this, I don't doubt that you'll find many more than just the mentioned two.
You correctly state that "major kernel power regressions that are hitting many mobile Linux users", however you proceed to measure the power draw on desktop systems. Whether the results can be transfered to mobile setups is questionable and would have to be verified there anyway.
I think the most meaningful results you get from directly measuring the voltage and current coming from a notebook battery. That way you avoid both the inefficiency in the power supply and the inefficiency in the charging logic, both of which don't really matter to mobile users but still skew the results.
..or just unplug the battery and use one or two USB multimeters to measure voltage and amperage between the power adaptor and the laptop, otherwise you have to continually recharge the battery and can't take any measurements during that time . The measurement is way more accurate too, and an USB multimeter comes for less than 45 $.
Measuring on the DC side of the power supply is definitely better than measuring on the AC side, but still you have to keep in mind that there is no incentive for the manufacturer to be particularly efficient there. Plus, whether the power draw from DC side is proportional to battery power draw seems somewhat plausible, but would have to be verified on a case-by-case basis.
You have to be aware that there are tools in Linux that will adjust laptop hardware to run at different energy saving level when running plugged in vs on battery so they may give you vastly different wattage results
laptop-mode-tools is one example.
And many hardware has a power saving mode used when running on battery power, e.g. wireless network cards.
I can just see some network quite far away from me when running on AC power, but with battery power I only see networks from the same street.

posted January 25, 2005 Generations of American television viewers were caught by surprise on Sunday, January 23, 2005, to learn that Johnny Carson, the legendary "King of Late Night" had passed away at his home in Malibu, California. The cause of death was emphysema. For three decades, encompassing the eras of seven different United States Presidents, Carson had ruled the airwaves of late-night television on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, setting what his successor Jay Leno called "the Gold Standard" for all who would follow in his footsteps. He was born John William Carson in Corning, IA on October 23, 1925. When Johnny was eight, his family moved to Norfolk, NE, where he spent the rest of his formative years. At the age of 12, he read a book about doing magic tricks, purchased a mail-order magic kit, and that quickly became an obsession. By the age of 14, he was already performing a magician/comedy routine professionally as "The Great Carsoni", entertaining social groups such as the local Rotary Club. Following a three year stint as an ensign in the U.S. Navy Reserve from 1943-46, Carson returned to Nebraska, attending the University of Nebraska, and graduating with a Bachelor's Degree in 1949. During his time at NU, Carson acquired his first broadcast experience, working for the college radio station. When Omaha television station WOW began broadcasting in 1949, Carson was part of their earliest line-up, hosting an early afternoon talk/skit show, The Squirrel's Nest.Enjoying the challenges of his earliest forays into television, Carson moved to California in the early 1950s, eventually landing a weekly comic series on CBS, Carson's Cellar. While working on this low-budget show, Carson was able to perfect his monologue and sketch comedy skills, and he was soon noticed by the hot new comic talents of the day, including Fred Allen and Red Skelton. Skelton eventually hired Carson to be a writer on The Red Skelton Show. An on-set accident which incapacitated Skelton provided a break for Johnny, who filled in on the live show and gained even more attention in the industry. After hosting the quiz show Earn Your Vacation and the short-lived The Johnny Carson Show (a variety show), Carson settled into hosting the ABC daytime show Who Do You Trust? in 1957, where he was teamed up with Ed McMahon (as an announcer) for the first time. During his stint with ABC, Johnny served as the occasional guest-host during Jack Paar's period (1957-62) as host of Tonight!, and when Paar eventually stepped down, Johnny was hired as his full-time replacement. Against NBC's wishes, Carson insisted on McMahon's coming along as his sidekick, and Carson's era on The Tonight Show officially began on October 1, 1962. During Johnny Carson's 30-year run as host, The Tonight Show went from black and white to color broadcasts, and in 1972 moved from New York City to "beautiful downtown Burbank" in California. Over the course of over 4,500 original episodes, Carson played host to over 22,000 guests, and created such popular on-going sketches (with his Mighty Carson Art Players) as Aunt Blabby, misguided super patriot Floyd R. Turbo, Tea Time Movie with Art Fern, and Carnac the Magnificent. Despite bringing his marital troubles (four wives and three divorces) into his monologues, Carson managed to keep his private life very private. After 30 years at the helm of The Tonight Show, Carson officially called it quits on May 22, 1992, with weeks of special episodes and special guests culminating in an emotional final episode, in which he signed off with the following comments: "And so it has come to this. I am one of the lucky people in the world. I found something that I always wanted to do and I have enjoyed every single minute of it. You people watching, I can only tell you that it's been an honor and a privilege coming into your homes all these years to entertain you. And I hope when I find something I want to do and think you would like, I can come back and (you will be) as gracious in inviting me into your homes as you have been. I bid you a very heartfelt good night." Since that date, Johnny Carson had lived a life out of the public eye. There were a few cameo appearances on other shows, including a 1994 appearance on The Late Show With David Letterman that earned him a 73-second standing ovation, but for the most part, Carson wasn't seen. He was busy behind the scenes, though, especially with philanthropic activities. Among the many monetary gifts he passed out were numerous funds for facilities in his former home state of Nebraska -- including: $5.3 million for the renovation of The Temple Building at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln campus, and a substantial investment to support the original construction of The Lied Center on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln campus, where the Johnny Carson Theater is situated. Johnny was also extremely generous with financial gifts to numerous facilities and causes in Norfolk, Nebraska, which continued to hold a special place in his heart. Among his beneficiaries there were the Carson Regional Cancer Center, the local library, an arts center, the Elkhorn Valley Museum (now host to a trove of Carson memorabilia) and the Lifelong Learning Center at Northeast Community College. Johnny Carson is suvived by his fourth wife, Alexis, and sons Christopher and Cory, from his marriage to first wife Joan Wolcott Carson. He was preceded in death by his second son, Richard, who died in an automobile accident in 1991.

Simon searches for first victory since All-Star break
Rockies turn to De La Rosa in friendly confines of Coors Field
Alfredo Simon didn't envision being winless through his first five post-All-Star break starts. The All-Star was tied for the Major League lead with 12 wins prior to the Midsummer Classic, and since then he has gone 0-4 with a 4.78 ERA.
Although this season is the veteran right-hander's first as a full-time starter, Reds manager Bryan Price isn't too concerned.
"The way I see it is as comparable to anybody else on our team, where there's going to be an ebb and flow to the season," Price said after Simon's last start, in which he went five innings and allowed two runs on four hits with five strikeouts and a season-high-tying five walks against the Marlins on Saturday.
"I'm confident that this will be a stretch that we'll look back on and say it was his rough patch of the season, but he finished strong."
Simon looks to begin a turnaround on Thursday night, when he and the Reds open a four-game series with the Rockies at Coors Field.
History isn't on his side, however. Simon is 0-1 with a 6.75 ERA in six career appearances (one start) against Colorado. His lone start against the Rockies came on May 10 of this season, when he lasted a season-low three innings, getting shelled for five runs on eight hits in the loss.
The Rockies will counter with left-hander Jorge De La Rosa. The southpaw has been much more comfortable in hitter-friendly Coors Field than on the road this season. At home, he is 7-2 with a 3.23 ERA, while he is 4-6 with a 5.35 ERA on the road.
That trend continued in De La Rosa's last start, in which he surrendered four runs on six hits over six innings in a loss to the D-backs in Arizona on Saturday.
De La Rosa, like Simon, hasn't fared well against his next opponent. In 10 career appearances (four starts) against Cincinnati, De La Rosa is 2-3 with an 8.49 ERA.
Reds: Phillips could begin rehab assignment Friday
Second baseman Brandon Phillips is nearing a return to the Reds after undergoing surgery on July 11 to repair a torn ligament in his left thumb. Phillips injured the thumb on a diving play during a game against the Cubs on July 9.
Price said on Wednesday that Phillips could begin a rehab assignment as soon as Friday and could be back in Cincinnati's lineup toward the end of the club's seven-game road trip or the beginning of the next homestand.
"If everything goes well, we'll get him into some Minor League games, which would be the logical next step," Price said. "Then it will be a game-by-game evaluation on how he's doing. He's certainly going to need at least a handful of at-bats to kind of assess where he is, get his timing back somewhat, and then we'll evaluate and see where he is."
Phillips will likely begin his rehab assignment at Triple-A Louisville on Friday, but could also play at Class A Dayton after that, since both clubs are at home this weekend.
Rockies: Dickerson delivering
In the absence of injured sluggers Troy Tulowitzki and Carlos Gonzalez, left fielder Corey Dickerson has been providing an offensive spark for the Rockies. In his second big league season, Dickerson has posted a .323 average with a .955 OPS, 16 home runs and 50 RBIs.
He finished Wednedsay's 5-3 loss to the Padres with an eight-game hitting streak intact, but with his three-game homer streak snapped.
"We've got a losing record. But you've got to personally bring good energy," Dickerson said after the first of those three homers, which lifted Colorado to a 5-3, 10-inning victory over the D-backs on Sunday. "It describes the man you are. Are you going to give up or are you going to keep fighting? I think we've got a lot of fight on this team."
Worth noting
• Skip Schumaker is 3-for-8 (.375) with a double and two RBIs in his career against De La Rosa. Ryan Ludwick is 5-for-21 (.238) with seven strikeouts against the left-hander, but three of his five hits were home runs.
• The Reds took two of three from the Rockies in Cincinnati from May 9-11, despite batting .195 (17-for-87) for the series.
• Among National League players with 350 plate appearances or fewer, Devin Mesoraco and Dickerson are ranked first and third, respectively, in home runs. Mesoraco has gone deep 20 times.

Dells Dairy Queen getting new owner
Dairy Queen owner Charlie Pleskac announced this week he and his wife are selling Dell Rapids' longest-running restaurant.Pleskac and his wife Rita were expected to finalize the sale Monday with Dan Hiserote, a restaurant owner in northwest Iowa. Hiserote owns 10 others Dairy Queens including four in Sioux City, Iowa and others in Sergeant Bluffs, Cherokee, Le Mars and Onawa.Steve Hill, concept manager for Hiserote's Dairy Queen stores, said cosmetic upgrades will be made in the coming months like adding parking lot lighting, improving signage and modernizing the cash register system.With a staff of about 15, Hill said existing employees will be maintained.The change in ownership marks the sixth time in 14 years that the business has changed hands.Pleskac said he will hand the reigns over to the new ownership Tuesday after five years as a Dell Rapids business owner. He said he leaves the property and business in better shape than when he bought it.Since purchasing the restaurant in December 2008, Pleskac spent thousands on improvements to the parking lot, roof, patio area and landscaping. Cosmetic upgrades were also made inside the store. A desire to be closer to family weighed on him and his wife in recent years, and eventually led to the decision to sell, Pleskac said."We were on the road three out of every four weekends," he said of the frequency his family of four was traveling to Wahoo, Neb. to visit relatives. "Being the owner, it's a 24/7 job so it was tough because we were gone that much."Pleskac said although moving home to Nebraska is the right choice for his family it wasn't an easy one."It's not something we had planned on. It's hard for me because I put my blood, sweat and tears into it and the community has been more than receptive and supportive," he said. "A part of me is torn."The Pleskacs will maintain ownership of two other Dairy Queens, one in Lincoln, Neb. and another in Ogallala, Neb.Pleskac resigned from his postion as a Dell Rapids Planning and Zoning Commissioner at the board's regular meeting March 25.

7:30 - 9 pm
Jeffrey Schneider
When everything is removed, taken away, seen through, then what? Does any basis for practice or awakening remain? Emptiness is a central concept in every school of Mahayana Buddhism. In this gathering we will clarify the teaching and investigate the ways it may play out in our lives. Although we will read and discuss the various doctrines of emptiness, the focus of the group will be on our own experience. We will use both group discussion and one to one dialogues as our primary tools.
A working knowledge of Buddhist teachings, a commitment to attend every class and a willingness to participate actively.
Class fees; five class meetings:
$75; $67 current SFZC members; $60 limited income.

Well, THAT's a late christmas present!
Thx to everyone involved in this!
Phoronix: AMD Releases Open-Source R600/700 3D Code
Since earlier this year we have been waiting for AMD to release documentation and/or code on the ATI R600 series concerning 3D acceleration so that the open-source Linux drivers can begin to support the newer ATI graphics processors. It has taken longer than expected for AMD to complete and release this information, but it's now available. AMD has released the fundamental Linux code needed to begin fostering the development of an open-source R600 3D driver. Furthermore, this code also concerns the latest R700 series of graphics processors! The microcode for the newest GPUs has also been released.
Well, THAT's a late christmas present!
Thx to everyone involved in this!
I just don't get why radeonhd will get it faster than radeon when agd5f works for ATI and on the radeon driver?
Aaaaaah now that's some awesome news ... thank you very much to everyone involved !
/me hoping to soon be able to drop those barely working, crashy buggy proprietary drivers :-)
let's see... Nuremberg is closest to you, send the champagne to SuSE
A Radeon 4670 with an AGP connector...
Don't do it man... get a PCIE motherboard. Seriously. Please don't make us support AGP again.

Comments about Gloria Wig by Paula Young®:
The wig is so natural looking. I get so many complements. The only problem I have with the wig is it itches about 20 minutes after putting it on. I am loosing my hair and no one can tell I have a wig on so I am so pleased. I just wish it didn't itch so much. It is beautiful. It may be me and anyone else may not have the itching problem. I would recommend this wig to everyone.

Here we have an initial dyno of the Cobb Accessport on the N54. The car used is a 135i 6-speed. The dyno is on 93 octane pushing around 15 psi of boost. No boost graph or AFR is included which we would like but we will take what they give us. The result for 93 octane pump gas only certainly is not bad but some, including BMS, are expressing concerns about the boost being pushed. This tune compares favorably with the Giac Stage 1. More details below:
Yes you are correct 93 oct
The 135i used was a manual 6speed, and the numbers are DynoJet
No sir, the car is bone stock with 40k miles on it. Never been modified.
Thanks for the questions guys.
I just talked to Doug about it. He said it ramps to 15psi then tapers on the top end to 12.5ish.
Initial Dyno of Cobb Accessport Tune for the BMW N54
This article was originally published in forum thread: Cobb dyno results started by mazdaspeed6 View original post67 Comments-
Because the JB4 and Procede exist?
I'm wondering what niche this is going to occupy as GIAC already has a bit of a following in the flash area. I think this is promising though, we will see what they do on race and where they can take it.
Quotes from other site:
The Cobb AccessPORT (AP) contains more than one map. As of now it contains Stock, Stg1 91 Octane, Stg1 93 Octane, and a Valet map. As we release maps for more heavily modified cars they can be added to the AP at any point and flashed in ~60 seconds anywhere (Think the gas pump). We are planning to support maps up though the most common bolt-ons and potentially for some turbo kits.The AP as of now has a built in shift light, gauges, data logging, 0-60 and 1/4 times, read and clear DTCs, and reseting of the ecu. More features are planned in the future as we further develop support for the platform.Integrating meth fail safes into our product is not currently available, but we will be adding it in the future.The AP has a Recovery Mode which can continue the flash in the event a cable is pulled or some other catastrophic event that may happen during a flash. There is little worry of hurting the ECU.Tuning software in the form of AccessTuner Pro (For qualified tuners with a dyno available) and AccessTuner Race (End-user custom tuning) are on the way.
if you ask me thats too much boost for a stock car. yeah you hit those numbers first 3rd pull but you will heatsoak straight away. Seems they are trying to show high numbers straight away with aggressive calibration to win customers.
Might be they will lower on newer map the boost calibration .
They know they are going up against a piggy dominated market so they need to show something to get some attention for this.
I would like to see the Cobb 91 octane tune for the Giac 91 octane tune, likely a wash.
Why would you think this would mean JB and Procede game would be over and everyone would switch to this?
Cobb has a lot to prove before they can be on the level of the upper end performance that the piggy's offer. They are just getting started...
mazdaspeed6 - 01-08-2011, 01:36 PM
I think piggys have too much of an advantage over flashes for me to go with them
black bnr32 - 01-09-2011, 02:36 PM
hello custom kits and tuning in the near future. sick.
