Senator uses old-style filibuster on CIA nominee
Cruz asked Holder if the Constitution allowed the federal government to kill on U.S. soil a U.S. citizen who doesn't pose an imminent threat. Holder said the situation was hypothetical, but he did not think that in that situation the use of a drone or lethal force would be appropriate. Cruz criticized Holder for not simply saying "no" in response.
In a letter sent Tuesday to Paul, Brennan said the CIA does not have authority to conduct lethal operations inside the U.S.
Holder told Paul in a March 4 letter that the federal government has not conducted such operations and has no intention of doing so. But Holder also wrote that he supposed it was possible under an "extraordinary circumstance" that the president would have no choice but to authorize the military to use lethal force inside U.S. borders. Holder cited the attacks at Pearl Harbor and on Sept. 11, 2001, as examples.
Paul said he did not dispute that the president has the authority to take swift and lethal action against an enemy who carried out a significant attack against the United States. But Paul said he was "alarmed" at how difficult it has been to get the administration to clearly define what qualifies as a legitimate target of a drone strike.
The record for the longest individual speech on the Senate floor belongs to former Sen. Strom Thurmond of South Carolina, who filibustered for 24 hours and 18 minutes against the Civil Rights Act of 1957.
Paul ended his lengthy speech with a joke. He said that he was tempted to go another 12 hours and try to break Thurmond's record, but he needed to use the bathroom.
"I discovered that there are some limits to filibustering, and I'm going to have to go and take care of one of those in a few minutes," Paul said.
Reid said Thursday that he's been involved in a few filibusters, and "what I've learned from my experience is to succeed you need strong convictions and also a strong bladder."
If confirmed, Brennan would replace Michael Morell, the CIA's deputy director who has been acting director since David Petraeus resigned in November after acknowledging an affair with his biographer.

Hard time choosing a midwife

If you are more comfortable with the first midwife I would maybe ask to talk to some of the moms she' s delivered as a referral. I know that helps me tons when I know mama's who have used the midwives I'm considering.
I know that having someone there you can trust and makes you feel like you can do do it is really important in having the kind of birth experience you want. I would go with the midwife who makes you the most comfortable because if you can't trust your provider it will be a whole lot harder.
Another option that I am doing is to hire both. Hire the one you like to be the main midwife and ask the second one what she would charge to be there just for the birth. My 2nd midwife is way less expensive since she's only there for the birth and I feel very comfortable with so many helpers.
Good luck.
So personally I would go with your first choice. Sounds like she is a gem.
So personally I would go with your first choice. Sounds like she is a gem.
I love the fact that my midwives had a lot of education and experience, so I understand how you feel. They've seen a lot and are comfortable performing emergency procedures because they've done them before.
However, just from what you've written here, I am leaning toward the first midwife you described. Besides staying healthy and eating well, a normal healthy birth shouldn't require a ton of rules or classes. You can discuss transfer situations with the first midwife ahead of time to work out a plan that works for both of you. Talk about which situations she would normally transfer under, and add any that specifically make you uncomfortable or nervous. A responsible, detailed transfer plan is an essential part of a homebirth, so you would be doing this work anyway. If you choose the first midwife, it might help you to know ahead of time exactly what would necessitate a transfer, including optional situations upon which the two of you have already agreed.
The only thing that I would really want to go over with the first midwife is exactly what complications she has seen and which she hasn't. Then I would ask for her protocol in all of those situations. I would also seek out the comments of prior clients. Do this without asking the midwife for referrals, so you can get a good mix of opinions. I would also ask her who her help will be. Does she have a back up OB or midwife? Does she have a partner, assistant, or apprentice?

Based on your description I'd go with the first one. I have some high risk conditions that have always led me to consult with an OB early on (only part our insurance covers, anyway)... I've found that I REALLY absorb the negativity & worry & rules from these practices. Yet in the end, what I really want & need is CONFIDENCE that my body can do this job! And it always has! When I get antsy about the midwife, I remind myself that she has nearly as much to lose as I do, should the outcome be bad (criminal charges, etc - which I wouldn't bring but my state sure would). So she has incentive for this to end perfectly, not just as a good person, but from a narrower, more selfish perspective. I don't think she'd ever take unnecessary risks with my health or my baby's. Perhaps an experienced doula might also help to set your mind at ease? Or the birth-only hiring idea for a back up midwife that another poster mentioned? No matter what you choose, I wish you the best of luck!

sigh ....
I am a baby wearing loser ....
The only thing I feel comfortable/figure out with is the Bjorn. I have a Hotsling, and a Moby wrap, as well as a Maya ring sling. It's like I need someone here to show me how to use them each time .....
I can sort of get it, when I'm with an experienced user ... but then get me home, and no amount of reading/video/playing with the wrap/pouch/sling helps me.
PLEASE tell me I'm not the only one!

Take down Metal Gear contraptions is an important part of the Metal Gear franchise where we're talking "Solid" or "Rising: Revengeance." Speaking of which, how is Konami just going to add TWO new words to the Metal Gear naming convention? In theory, this should just be Metal Gear Rising and then we start talking on painful made-up words for later versions of the game. That's how Call of Duty does it and they're on to two separate sub-franchises with that thing now: Black Ops and Modern Warfare. So yeah just be like them.
Or don't. In fact, don't. Metal Gear Rising Revengeance is leading with the whole Raiden as a boot slicing cyborg that can precision chop any enemy or object in the game. That's going to be cool if this gameplay clip is any indication. This is from the demo so things might change but lining up bad guys according to how you want their body to fall to pieces is an underrated innovation. Every game that has swords or lightsabers must do this now.

Maybe this is what you meant? I have never used displacement mapping before but was reading about it last night. I guess the idea is to unwrap my object and then take the resulting unmapping and color over it in an image editor something like fur streaks in black and white, then use a displacement modifier in blender...I'll play with it later.

Do you find Sculptris is better than Blender's sculpting tools? I have used Blender's a bit... I have heard with ZBrush the number of polys really goes up, I imagine it's similar with Sculptris, so I'll have to be careful not to exceed the polys allowed by shapeways.

Thanks for the recommendation. However although some of the work I did in sculptris was pretty nice looking, it was taking too long to sculpt hairs all over the body. I saw someone in z-brush make a 'stamp' of fur and use that to cover the body, but alas I don't think sculptris has a tool like that. So I ended up doing it the 'easy' but tedious way with some duplicating shortcuts. But in essence I placed elongated cylinders (hairs) all over my body. Here's the result.

Janning receives training camp invite
|07.10.10 at 8:46 pm ET
LAS VEGAS — After a brief but impressive stint with the Celtics at Orlando Summer League, Matt Janning has received an invite to be part of their training camp roster this fall, he told WEEI.com.
'They've invited me,' he said. 'I've got to sit down and kind of think about what's the best opportunity for me.'
Janning, a guard, averaged 11.5 points and shot 9-for-18 in just two games for the Celtics. Although Danny Ainge asked him to stay with the team for the duration of the week, Janning had to leave Orlando early to fulfill a previous commitment with the Suns at the Las Vegas Summer League.
Even though he will consider all of his options this summer, the chance to play for the Celtics is special to the Northeastern alum.
'A lot of my friends are like, 'You're playing with the Celtics, that's awesome.' And it really is,' he said. 'I've been in Boston the last four years, a little more than that now, watched games down at the Garden, and I've seen those guys play, so it's real nice knowing that I'm close to getting a chance to be part of all that."

It's that time of the year again when higher education Home Pages across the land sprout bright banners proclaiming their top-of-the-line standings in the latest college rankings.
So perhaps it's time for us to 'fess up ==> The Gateway has never posted any "news items" related to high rankings awarded to any HBCUs, and it never will. Why not? Because we assume that most of our readers understand that college rankings are little more than tabulated gossip. As gossip, they are fun to read and for the same reasons that Academy Awards TV shows are fun to watch, even if you haven't seen any of the nominated movies. In other words, you don't have to be an alum of Hampton, Howard, Morehouse, Spelman, or FAMU to want to find out how they stand in the lastest rankings -- who's up, who's down, and who's won or lost the most bragging rights.
We assume that most of our readers would be appalled if the Federal government's "No Child Left Behind" program measured the quality of local K-12 schools by using the kind of crude, simplistic measures employed by U.S News and World Reports and other magazines to rank the nation's colleges and universities. On the other hand, we know that most of our readers would also have to concede (confess?) that these crude, simplistic criteria sometimes provide surprisingly profound insights, i.e., when they award high status to the readers' own alma maters, to their children's alma maters, or to their friends' alma maters ... :-)
Finally, we assume that our readers understand that the primary reason why magazines publish annual rankings is to to sell more magazines. It takes three to five years for significant educational reforms to show tangible results. Consequently, there should be little or no change in the relative standings of the nation's colleges and universities from one year to the next -- no matter which criteria were used. But no change is no news, and no news is bad news for magazine sales. So no one should be surprised that the magazines somehow find a way to shake up their rankings from year to year. And these quasi-random shake-ups sometimes produce results that are truly outrageous -- the defining hallmark of really juicy gossip!!!
Speaking of truly outrageous, have you seen the latest rankings published by ... ???
Note: Readers interested in comprehensive, scholarly critiques of the methodological shortcomings of magazine rankings are referred to the "College and University Rankings" pages (http://www.library.uiuc.edu/edx/rankings.htm)
maintained by the Education and Social Science Library of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC)
This compact site enables readers to find most of the information they want about HBCUs with a few mouse clicks. It hosts the "Gateway to HBCUs" (left column) that provides links to data about the academic activities of HBCUs. The site also provides links to statistical reports, an op-ed blog, tech news (daily), and a tech magazine (weekly) that identify Black efforts to use Internet-based technologies to close the Digital Divide

College Rankings and Juicy Gossip

Filmmaker Karan Johar doesn't know about his next directorial plans and says that he is still under the hangover of the success of his latest movie "Student Of The Year" (SOTY).
"Lots of conjecture on my next... none of it is true! Will announce details only when everything is final... as of now its still SOTY on my mind," tweeted Johar.
If recent reports are to be believed, the filmmaker is now working on a period love story.
And after working with three newcomers in SOTY, he will team up with his all-time favourite Shah Rukh Khan, with whom he shares a strong professional and personal equation.
Johar last directed Shah Rukh for the 2010 movie "My Name Is Khan".

FOXBORO, Mass. — It's a big week for the Patriots as they prepare for their third preseason game, which takes place Saturday in Detroit, and that performance could signify something a little closer to the team's actual depth chart.
While it's an important stepping stone for everyone at the top of the roster, this week is also a matter of survival for about three dozen players at the bottom of the roster. They Patriots must trim down to 80 players next Tuesday and then to 53 players Sept. 3, meaning they'll send 37 guys to the unemployment line.
There's no doubt that they'll be cutting some real talent, whether it's in the form of a proven veteran or a promising youngster. Next week will be a very busy one in Foxboro and the NFL's other 31 cities.
Do you have any questions about the depth chart, player movement or anything else that's going on with the Patriots? Leave them here in NESN.com Patriots reporter Jeff Howe's mailbag, and come back Friday to see if he answered your inquiry.
Leave your question for Jeff Howe's mailbag in the comments section below, send them to him via Twitter, or send them here . Jeff will pick a few questions to answer every week. Be sure to check back to see if your question was answered by Jeff.

Rajasthan's Sariska Tiger Reserve recently announced a tigress has given birth to two cubs.
"Two cubs … [were] spotted Thursday evening through camera traps," a field director with the reserve recently told the media.
Sariska Tiger Reserve's tiger population is up to 13 after two new cubs were spotted this summer.
Officials with the tiger reserve said that the cubs appear to be four- to five-months-old and healthy. The two cubs represent only the second set of new tiger births in the Sariska reserve since adult tigers were moved here from the nearby Ranthambore Tiger Reserve in 2008.
Poaching inside the reserve decimated the tiger population in the early 2000s. A population survey between 2005 and 2006 found no trace of tigers in the reserve, and officials arranged to have 7 breeding-age adults moved to the park from the Ranthambore Tiger Reserve while increasing park security to protect against illegal hunting and trapping.
The two new cubs bring the total population of tigers inside the Sariska reserve to 13.
Pench is a close neighbor to Kanha in terms of proximity, but stands on its own in terms of geography. Pench is a mostly flat parcel and is home to a large Teak forest. Legend has it that this was the place that provided Rudyard Kipling the inspiration and setting for his iconic novel, The Jungle Book. Although not one of the more noted parks for tiger sightings, there is a large and wonderful array of animals and flora here. The scenic and wide Pench River gives life to this amazing national treasure.

Located immediately north of Bandhavgarh, Panna is only slightly larger than its neighbor thus making it a smaller sized park. It is a great park to insert after a visit to Khajuraho, as it is only around 50 km away. Panna has been the source of some mystery over the last few years, as the tiger population has dwindled down to almost non-existence. What is lacks in big cats however, it makes up for in flora and fowl. The many streams and waterfalls attract large flocks of varied species of birds. The terrain is undulating and very heavily forested.
In the south of India, near the Western Ghat range, lies the best park for spotting India's icon: the elephant. Nagarhole is blessed with a wide array of geographical features making it one of the most beautiful spots on the sub-continent. The beautiful Kabini River nourishes the canopy of teak and rosewood, some of which reach 100ft. Tigers are present here in significant numbers, but this park is a must see for the pachyderm lover.

During a recent trip to New York City Narendra Modi, India's recently elected president, announced that the Indian government would be extending visa on arrival services to U.S. citizens as early as the first of next year.
Modi made the announcement during a speech delivered in front of a crowd of thousands at Madison Square Garden during his first trip to the U.S. as the President of India.
Modi's government is hoping that an easier visa process will lead to more international tourism traffic in locations like Humayun's Tomb in Delhi.
The current government is predicting the new, easier visa process to lead to a boost in inbound tourism to the Indian subcontinent. To accommodate the predicated increase in travelers, new facilities are being planned and current facilities will be upgraded to handle the potentially increased workload.
It's likely that visa on arrival services will be similarly extended to other countries including the United Kingdom and Canada, but full details regarding the roll out of the new program have yet to be made available.

Rabbits implanted with new cells regained sexual function, study says,,,,
MONDAY, Nov. 9 (HealthDay News) -- Researchers were able to restore sexual function to rabbits with damaged penises by growing new penile tissue in the lab and implanting it, a new study reports.
Though a human application is a ways off, researchers say the technique could one day be used to treat severe erectile dysfunction in men.
"We were able to show the tissue was able to integrate and function in the long term, which means we can start planning clinical applications [in humans]," said Dr. Anthony Atala, director of the Institute for Regenerative Medicine at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center and senior author of the study. "Our hope is to be able to treat patients with many conditions, including congenital abnormalities of the penis, traumatic injuries, penile cancer and severe cases of erectile dysfunction that don't benefit from drug treatments."
The study is published in the Nov. 9 online edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
The penis is a complex organ, with nerve, muscle and vascular cells all needing to work together to achieve and maintain an erection. During an erection, smooth muscle tissue relaxes, allowing blood to flow into the penis. Endothelial cells, which line blood vessels, trigger the process by releasing nitric oxide.
In the study, the researchers extracted smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells from the animals' penises. The cells were then separated and grown in the laboratory on rod-shaped collagen scaffolds for support. The scaffold was placed in an incubator and nourished by fluids to mimic conditions inside the body, Atala said.
After the cells had matured, the scaffolding and the newly formed penile spongy tissue, called corpora cavernosa, was surgically implanted into the rabbits' penises.
About a month later, the tissue b

I recently saw the Sponge Bob Movie: Sponge Out of Water with my son. Of course, there was no other natural conclusion than… we must make a Plankton stuffie!
Here is the result of our efforts. Green T-shirt jersey, a few wool felt scraps for the eye and villainous eyebrow, two 4″ plastic cable ties for antennae and a Sharpie grin.
A small galvanized pail from the dollar bin at Target with a hemp handle make up The Chum Bucket (for the uninitiated, this is the name of Plankton's failed undersea eating emporium) to complete the look.

My self-summary
Write a little about yourself. Just a paragraph will do.
I was born and raised in Florida. I like the heat. I love learning how things work and making things. I like riding my bicycle, but I don't participate in the sport of cycling. Biking is a fun way to get to the coffee shop or the bar. I do painting and photography. I like to have opinions about beers. I'm a nerd, but you'll have to ask to find out how big. I've also tried snowboarding and surfing since I moved to California. I like hanging out with friends, watching/reading/playing stories, going places, museums.
What I'm doing with my life
Don't overthink this one; tell us what you're doing day-to-day.
I went to university, it was fun. Then I drove two thousand miles to San Diego and now I get paid to make things. Life's pretty damn exciting.
I'm really good at
Go on, brag a little (or a lot). We won't judge.
Knowing how stuff works, just ask me.
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
I'm tall and masculine
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Help your potential matches find common interests.
The Millennium trilogy was great. I also read Wikipedia more than books. I watch mostly either educational, or really really trashy programming on tv, sometimes both. Right now I don't have cable though. My favorite band is Streetlight Manifesto. I've been listening to Andrew Jackson Jihad and Ghost Mice lately. Mostly, I've got bad taste in music so they say, so if you want to know more and criticize, that's ok. I do appreciate a wide range of live music though. I love ice cream. I'm also a very big fan of baked goods and cheese. I like a lot of movies too. Someone message me who's seen Primer.
The six things I could never do without
Think outside the box. Sometimes the little things can say a lot.
something to write on
pants (they protect me from thorny bushes and hold my phone)
car (unfortunately, it usually takes too long to get to LA by bicycle)
something else

As countless love songs, movies, and self-help books attest, men and women have long sought different things. The result? Seemingly inevitable conflict. Yet we belong to the most cooperative species on the planet. Isn't there a way we can use this capacity to achieve greater harmony and equality between the sexes? In The War of the Sexes, Paul Seabright argues that there is--but first we must understand how the tension between conflict and cooperation developed in our remote evolutionary past, how it shaped the modern world, and how it still holds us back, both at home and at work.
Drawing on biology, sociology, anthropology, and economics, Seabright shows that conflict between the sexes is, paradoxically, the product of cooperation. The evolutionary niche--the long dependent childhood--carved out by our ancestors requires the highest level of cooperative talent. But it also gives couples more to fight about. Men and women became experts at influencing one another to achieve their cooperative ends, but also became trapped in strategies of manipulation and deception in pursuit of sex and partnership. In early societies, economic conditions moved the balance of power in favor of men, as they cornered scarce resources for use in the sexual bargain. Today, conditions have changed beyond recognition, yet inequalities between men and women persist, as the brains, talents, and preferences we inherited from our ancestors struggle to deal with the unpredictable forces unleashed by the modern information economy.
Men and women today have an unprecedented opportunity to achieve equal power and respect. But we need to understand the mixed inheritance of conflict and cooperation left to us by our primate ancestors if we are finally to escape their legacy.
