SEATTLE - Timothy Durden was sentenced to 54 months behind bars in the vehicular homicide case that took the life of Rosemary Tempel on July 17th, 2012.
The victim's brother, Phillip Drum, said Durden should have faced more time.
Justice has not been served, said Drum. He was due to be charged with vehicular homicide DUI and nothing short of that.
That is Drum's opinion, but it is not what happened.
On the morning of the eight-vehicle crash that killed Tempel, a blood test reportedly found that Durden did have marijuana in his system three hours after the wreck. But Durden was not charged with driving under the influence. Prosecuting Attorney Mark Larson said marijuana was not a focus during the trial.
That evidence did not get before the jury. There was a series of legal questions around that that the court had to deal with, said Larson.
What stands out for Larson about this case is Durden's record which he says includes three past convictions for reckless driving.
As for the 2012 fatal collision, a jury found Durden guilty of vehicular homicide in November.
Friday, Tempel's family and friends were in the courtroom for Durden's sentencing.
I have come here to finally see the man who killed my daughter serve his sentence, and I would hope that it would be the max, said Josephine Drum, Rosemary's mother.
In court, Durden apologized over and over again.
How can I forgive myself, he cried. I see her face everyday.

Oregon Protect Religious Freedom Initiative (2014)
|Not on Ballot
| This measure did not or
will not appear on a ballot
An Oregon Protect Religious Freedom Initiative did not make the November 4, 2014 statewide ballot in Oregon as an initiated state statute. The measure would have protected the religious freedoms of people and businesses who do not believe in same-sex marriage from participating in such ceremonies.[1][2]
On May 9, 2014, proponents stopped their initiative campaign due to an unfavorable court ruling on the initiative's title.[3]
Text of measure
Ballot title
The official ballot title issued for the initiative is available here.
Full text
The full text of the legislation proposed by this initiative is available here.
The initiative was proposed by Friends of Religious Freedom.[4]
Path to the ballot
Supporters needed to collect 87,213 valid signatures by July 3, 2013 in order to land the initiative on the ballot. The chief petitioners for this initiative were Teresa Harke and Sherrie Sprenger.[5]

Shorai LFX18A1-BS12 and Water Exposure?
View Single Post
Joined: Jul 2007

Shorai not waterproof
From Shorai "the battery is not waterproof". I asked this because of the low battery mounting position and vulnerability to being submerged. The little special charge/balance port is susceptible to water intrusion. Shorai suggested I seal the port with silicon grease around the charge cable. Not exactly confidence inspiring. As to cold weather starting if 48°F is cold then we have other problems. The thing would not crank in the AM @ 48°F just did the reboot thing numerous times. Again that same day after work 50+F failed to crank on the first try. This is the third battery from Shorai and I am on the third charger. From Shorai "we have had some chip problems with our chargers", but they were giving me a good faith replacement battery even though their charger damaged the battery!! To holding a charge for a long time that may be so but not in any bike with a parasitic draw. Take for instance a clock. My bike has 0.008A draw with the alarm activated, 0.006 with just the clock, and that will kill the battery within several weeks.
I am happy for all who have not had starting or water immersion problems with the Shorai battery but for my money the technology is not ready for prime time.

One thing we did not try, but might've worked, would be to bond two network interfaces together and then use vlan tagging on top of the bond interface to create a vlan across it to the other node, and then pointing the cluster to the vlan interfaces, which should still be up if even if the loss of one network interface or one switch.
On Wed, May 27, 2009 at 7:48 PM, Kaerka Phillips <kbphillips80 gmail com> wrote:It sounds like they're fencing themselves. We got around this issue on a two-node cluster by including the alternate node's internal ip address in the /etc/hosts file of both hosts and a cross-over cable for the service network with the private ip addresses assigned to that network. If you're trying to get them to monitor each other via the public network, in theory this could be done with a backup fencing method, but we weren't able to get this work since the heartbeat functions only happen on the network that the node names are defined to use.

what I don´t know is way they lose the connection with the cluster, they are still connected (I only unplug a cable from the service network)
That may be something worth chasing down, as it appears that your cluster communication is on a network you don't expect?
How can I be sure about the network the nodes are using for communication? I think they do for the network I have configured to do that....
Also, are the nodes simply "shutting down", or are they being forcibly rebooted. If it is a casual shutdown, then it would appear that both nodes are trying to shutdown simultaneously.
they simply shutdown. They no reboot.
This is what I get every time I unplug the nework cable from eth0 of any of the two nodes. (they communicate through eth1...)

The house was very comfortable and cozy. We loved the yard. Watching fireworks from the yard with a fire in the pit made it special!
Satyajit, Neha, Sonal, Prasad :)
We stayed there for a second year in a row. Our group of 9 really had a great time in the cottage. We had plenty of space inside and outside. We really had good and quick service from Kim and we will for sure stay there next year for our annual hiking weekend!
For a second year in a row, we stayed at that place with my cousins for our annual hiking weekend. We really enjoyed our weekend. The cottage is clean, affordable, with plenty of space inside and outside. We will stay there for sure next year. Near many Adirondacks trails.
We were a group of 8 . The place was absolutely beautiful , fully functional and could easily accomodate group of 8-10 people with reasonable prices as compared to other rentals in the area . Kim has been very prompt and helpful in all transactions. Thanks Kim , we enjoyed our stay and would love to return whenever we get a chance .
We loved our stay at this cottage! The front yard is huge and has plenty of space for a croquet game, a volleyball game, bocci, and a campfire, all at the same time!! It's a clean, comfortable house, with lots of room inside as well. It's close enough to tourist attractions and tons of hiking trails. I would definitely recommend this property; it is a great bargain!
We enjoyed this house very much- it felt like we were away from everything but yet we were so close to so much in Lake Placid. The house looks better than in the pictures. It is clean, spacious and price is great. We would highly recommend a vacation here!
We had a wonderful time at the house. Everything was perfect and just what we needed. Kim was great, even making sure that the house was fully stocked on paper products. We did some hiking in the area and the house was just far enough from town to make you feel like you were out in the woods, but close enough to drive in and enjoy a nice dinner in Lake Placid. Everything with the trip went really well, but the house being better than advertised, everything was jsut a bit easier.
Grandma's Getaway is conveniently located for easy access to the best the Adirondacks has to offer!
Grandma's Getaway is located 17 miles from Lake Placid and just 7 miles from Whiteface. The Ironman bike loop goes right through Jay only a mile from the house. And the house's strategic location makes it ideal for accessing the race bike course. You can even cheer on your favorite races twice in each loop using the back road that the house is along. Grandma' Getaway offers easy access to the High Peaks for hiking and all outdoor activities the Adirondacks offers.

Now this is living! Summer sun shining. Cold beverage in hand. Feet up, kicking back on the deck of Crater Lake Lodge. Marveling at the indescribable blue of the water...

Thirty-four vigorous miles around the rim this morning, with views of Crater Lake from every angle—each new vista somehow even better than the last. You're still feeling mesmerized.

Days 1-2 Astonishing Crater Lake, the country's deepest lake—uniquely beautiful and seemingly undiscovered From mile-high Diamond Lake Resort, pedal rolling terrain against a backdrop of thick conifer forests Cross into Crater Lake National Park—ready for the 2,500-foot climb to the top of the crater? As you circle the rim of this enormous caldera, you can't help admiring the lake's intense sapphire color and amazing clarity Each curve in the road brings another incredible vista, from the cinder cone of Wizard Island to the 9,000-foot-peak of Mount Scott Unwind at the lodge or explore the spectacular landscape on foot.
Days 3-4 The Cascade Lakes Highway, a National Scenic Byway meandering through forests, lava fields and lake-dotted valleys Spin in the shadow of Broken Top Mountain and the Three Sisters' volcanic peaks—the most demanding ride of the trip but also the most rewarding! Elk Lake, with Mount Bachelor looming ahead, sets the stage for lunch Finish your ride at the lake or pedal all the way to Bend Bike in the rolling Cascade foothills, savoring the fragrance of pines and mountain views in every direction.
Days 5-6 Smith Rock, whose sheer volcanic crags are acclaimed by climbers worldwide Taking a break from your bike today doesn't necessarily mean taking it easy—the hike at Smith Rock can be as mellow or challenging as you like Or log some epic miles on two wheels, pedaling from Bend to Smith Rock, then continuing on to the lively Old West-style town of Sisters Ride McKenzie Pass, one of Oregon's most beautiful road biking routes, past ancient lava flows and into the lush valley Belknap Hot Springs—located along the McKenzie River—provides an idyllic setting for our farewell picnic.

adidas Outdoor | The Dawn Wall | Kevin Jorgeson | Episode 09 |
A Outdoor video by adidas Outdoor Channel - 759 views
Kevin Jorgesen spends some down time boulndering in Camp 4 and reviewing how the 2013 campaign to free the Dawn Wall has focused and consolidated their efforts. Never free climbed, that is. And not for lack of trying. In Fall, 2007, Yosemite pioneer Tommy Caldwell first set his sights on free climbing a composite route up the Dawn Wall, closely tracking the old aid route, Mescalito. First climbed in 1973, Mescalito ascends 3,000 feet of glass-smooth granite soaring just right of the Nose Route, the prominent prow on the Southeast face of El Cap, and the world's most sought after rock climb. In 2009, Caldwell was joined by adidas athlete and climber, Kevin Jorgeson. The pair went on to spend over 120 days on the wall over the following four seasons, managing to free all but several sections on three traversing pitches, roughly 1,500 feet up the wall. When Caldwell went down with an injury in early November, 2013, Kevin stayed the course, dialing in the sequences on the traverses. Once these sections are worked through - a strong possibility for the 2013 season - Kevin can launch an all-out, Thanksgiving push to free the entire route, bottom to top. If successful, the Dawn Wall Free will rank as the world's most difficult big wall free climb, and the most significant free climbing achievement of the twenty-first century.

Good for my parrot
posted 6 years ago
This is really good, and was better when my parrot was a baby. Now she would tear this to bits in a second, but it took her a while when she was a baby.
Pros: She loves to tear this apart
Cons: She gets the pieces off and throws them on my floor!

The phrase "social science" may well be largely oxymoronic, as John Gribbin says (Review, 10 January, p 41). And this should indeed prompt physicists less fortunate than himself at securing a place at the funding trough to turn their attention to it. There is no reason why the Apollonian analytical powers of "real" scientists should not be extremely effective in bringing new rigour to the study of social and political life.
Perhaps they could begin with a study of their own social milieu and address such fundamental issues as the determining factors in the allocation of research funds or the related question of the social and scientific implications of the age-old prostitution of physical science to military power.
The problem is that in meddling with these matters they might risk being banished from the physics trough for the rest of their careers. Physical science is very resource-hungry, so ...

Does the IPAD accessories come with a LAN Cable to connect instead of Wifi or 3G?
I am going to Berlin and taking my IPad2. My hotel room will have a "blue cable" which allows a wired connection to the internet. Is there an adapter I can use to get internet access on my IPad in my room through the cable rather than having to use wifi in a pulic place.
Thank you,

1 Answer from the Community
Best Answer:
No, there is not adapter and it's technically impossible for there to ever be one with the current iPad/Pod/Phone 30-pin port.
What you can do is get an Airport Express which is very portable and use it at home to increas the range of your wireless network and take on the road to create your own wi-fi hotspot when a cabled LAN connection is the only thing available. One of the best $99 I've spent.

200 illegal migrants taken into custody after a pre-dawn swoop
Most migrants captured were Indians aged between 15 and 35-years-old
Paris: The Belgian Police claim to have smashed a people-smuggling ring run by Indians and arrested 15 people. They also took 200 illegal migrants into custody after a pre-dawn swoop on Saturday on 19 alleged "safe houses," where smugglers hid illegal immigrants.
Officials protest action
A Sikh gurdwara in the Vilvoorde suburb north of Brussels, which was also raided was found to be sheltering some 50 illegal immigrants, the Belgian police said. The gurdwara officials have protested saying policemen who conducted the raid walked into the building with their shoes on and rudely interrupted the recitation of the Guru Granth Sahib.
"At least two of the people arrested were, we believe, the brains behind the trafficking operations in Belgium. They controlled a whole series of little groups, sometimes working together, sometimes competing against each other," Belgium's deputy public prosecutor Tim De Wolf told journalists. "We hope that we have broken up the core of the network. This operation proved this is happening on a large scale," he said.
Tales of misery
Many of the detained illegal immigrants told horrific tales of untold misery. They had all paid upwards of €12,000 to the people traffickers. Most clandestine migrants captured in the raids were Indians aged between 15 and 35-years-old, accompanied by some women and children, from the Punjab region of India. Belgian television reported that some 24 illegal immigrants had been found packed in a single 12 square metre windowless room.
On 19 September 2007, The Hindu had reported on an almost identical case in the suburbs of Brussels during which 19 arrests were made. Fifty illegal immigrants, again mostly from the Punjab had been detained then as they made their way to Britain.
Money offered
"We suspect that in this past year thousands of illegal Indians have passed through Belgium to the U.K.," said Mr. De Wolf. Indian and Iraqi Kurdish gangs were said to cooperate in the people smuggling business. They operate from parking lots along the motorways going from Belgium to Britain. Illegal migrants were loaded onto trucks with drivers being offered huge sums of money for the clandestine cargo.

Who knew the cure for some really big problems is right under our nose and between our legs. Yup, according a recent post by Penelope Trunk, people who have orgasms earn more, hang out with higher powered people, are better at public speaking, and walk with a more confident gait.
Of course, there's always a hitch. Or in this case, a gap—the "orgasm gap."
Reports Hannah Seligson in the Daily Beast: "Women are shattering political glass ceilings, surpassing men in the workforce, and even winning Indy-car races. But there's one area where the gender gap has proved particularly stubborn: The orgasm gap."
Paula England, a professor of sociology at Stanford University, says the orgasm gap is as serious as the pay gap and "it's producing a rampant culture of sexual asymmetry."
Wow. "Sexual asymmetry!" That sounds so serious. How did we end up here?
One theory has to do with the oral sex inequity. Ladies, stop giving guys so many blowjobs and getting nothing back. I'm serious!
Another issue: men are still twice as likely to climax as women. In hookup situations men are twice as likely to orgasm than women (wild guess here, but could this be connected to the blowjob inequity?). In the context of relationships, women orgasm about 80% as often as men. Other research shows a third of women never had an orgasm during intercourse.
Sadly, we're all too familiar with the source of the problem. Just like with housework, men don't pull their weight on the orgasm front because no one makes them.

Google Maps in a java application

Im not too sure if ive written this in the right section but here goes
Some of you may have seen my posts before, however this is a total new thing to me now.
I need to incorporate google maps into my (homemade)
application. Im replicating a sat nav system and ive got the user inputting a destination address etc but now i need some way of passing that information to Google Maps and then retrieving the list of directions as well as the overview of the map that shows the highlighted route.
I need to be able to somehow stick that into a
if possible, as im using
to navigate between 'screens'
Is this possible as a whole?
Also i have never used javascript before anyone mentions that and ive been told by colleagues that its pretty difficult to incorporate it into Java. Is this true?
My supervisor has mentioned using AJAX but ive never used that either and ive been trying to read up on it but it makes no sense to me - im pretty useless with web stuff
Anyone able to help???
p.s. ive been using NetBeans 6.5 to generate my GUI, just incase that makes any difference to people's expertise

Thanks for that, i actually came across that just after i posted on here but i hadnt read it yet
Do i need to change the classpath to use it? i added the .jar files that it mentioned but i still couldnt find the JXMapKit.class it was on about
Am i right to download the 'sources' from the
or should i download and unzip the 'binaries' or 'javadoc'?

That class is part of
Why would you download the sources (unless you intend to compile it yourself)? You should download the javadocs if you intend to use any of the classes in your application and so may need to look up the API (in other words, yes).

I tried using the JXMapViewer, did exactly as the tutorial said but when i dragged the class over to the panel, there was no
of a map at all, just a blank grey-ish screen with small images that i think were meant to represent a clock or a dial of some sort.
It didnt work at all when i ran it too, came up with the same thing.
I need to tap into google maps to access the directions list and to display the highlighted route that will be taken as you would see on a commercially available sat nav system. I cant seem to find anything else other than JavaScript stuff on the problem or the JXMapViewer and as mentioned, it aint working.
Is there any way of just tapping into Google Maps' "data" in order to just retrieve the directions list and then worry about the actually graphical display later?

ive found out that JXMapViewer isnt 'legal' to use with Google Maps and that Google tend to change a parameter in their URL (i think) regularly to stop things like the JXMapViewer from accessing the service.
Has anyone used AJAX in java before? ive been told its a method of accessing a website which can update without actually having to refresh the entire page, slowing down the entire thing. Was wondering if a Google Maps key is required when using AJAX too or is that only when you use the Google Maps API?
Another thing is, is Google Earth any better to use in java or will it still pose the same problems as Google Maps does?
All help, asap, would be greatly appreciated as i have no idea!!!

Google Earth is a native desktop application; I don't see how it could help in a Java application.
AJAX is something you'd use in a browser, for instance if you were to go the "classical" integration route by using a browser component that I suggested in my first post. But you'd need a Google maps key either way, and you need to adhere to the license (which may mean purchasing a commercial package if you can't work within the restrictions of the free license).

Maruti Suzuki India on Tuesday launched the diesel variant of its SX4 sedan at an introductory price of Rs.7.74-8.62 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
"The new age diesel technology as offered by SX4 is high on power and performance, while being low on emissions. SX4 diesel offers an economical and punchier ride," Maruti Suzuki India (MSI) Managing Director and CEO Shinzo Nakanishi told reporters here.
The company expected the new variant to be as successful as other diesel cars from MSI's stable, he added.
Swift, DZiRE and Ritz are the three other cars from the company that are available in diesel variants.
MSI claims that the SX4 diesel will give a mileage of 21.5 km a litre. The SX4 also comes in petrol and CNG variants.
When asked how much sales the company is targeting from the new variant, MSI Managing Executive Officer (Marketing and Sales) Mayank Pareek said: "now we are selling 1,500-1,600 units of petrol SX4. We expect this overall volume to go up, but we have not fixed any numbers yet."
According to the company's estimates, the market size of the A3 segment, where MSI is present with its sedans SX4 and DZiRE, was about 30,000 units a month, he added. "MSI's share is about 36 per cent and we see good opportunity in the A3 segment," Mr. Pareek said, adding that about 60-65 per cent of the total car buyers in India preferred diesel variants.
The company now manufactures 1.3 litre diesel engines at the Manesar facility with an annual installed production capacity of three lakh units. On the possibility of lowering the import duty on cars in the forthcoming budget, Mr. Nakanishi said: "There should be a level of competitiveness and domestic industry should be encouraged. If the import duty on car is lowered substantially, it will hurt the domestic auto industry."

FACTS & STATS: Site: Trojan Arena (6,000) -- Troy, Alabama. Television: None. Home Record: Texas State 5-9, Troy 3-11. Away Record: Texas State 1-12, Troy 3-11. Neutral Record: Texas State 2-1, Troy 0-2. Conference Record: Texas State 4-13, Troy 5-12. Series Record: Texas State leads, 1-0.
GAME NOTES: The regular-season finale between the Texas State Bobcats and Troy Trojans may be between two of the worst teams in the Sun Belt Conference this season, but one team will nonetheless earn its way into the league tourney with a win on Saturday.
Texas State received 21 points and nine boards from Joel Wright on Thursday in a 63-53 loss to South Alabama -- a fourth straight defeat that dropped the Bobcats into a tie for last place in the league standings at 4-13. The Bobcats were plagued by 19 turnovers, which South Alabama converted into 17 points.
The Bobcats are led by Wright, who averages 15.0 ppg. No other player is averaging double figures for Texas State, although Emani Grant (9.2 ppg) and Wes Davis (8.7 ppg) aren't far off the mark. Texas State has only averaged 61.8 ppg this season, but defensively yields just under 66 ppg.
Troy lost a tough one to UT Arlington on Thursday night, 87-86, in double overtime. Hunter Williams had 25 points and Antoine Myers contributed 21 points and nine rebounds for the Trojans, who have lost four of their last five. Tevin Calhoun tallied 17 points on 9-of-17 shooting and Josh Warren cleared 11 boards in the setback.
The Trojans have generated a mere 68.6 ppg, shooting 41.9 percent from the field in the process. They are also one of the weaker free-throw shooting squads (.661). Their defensive effort hasn't been much better, as opponents put up an even 70.6 ppg in draining 44.6 percent of their total shots, which ranks Troy ninth in the 10-team league.
Williams (13.8 ppg, 3.3 apg) paces the club in both scoring and assists, while help comes from Myers (12.0 ppg, 5.2 rpg) and Calhoun (10.4 ppg, 3.9 rpg). Two others, Kevin Thomas and Jeff Mulahey, net 9.3 and 9.0 ppg, respectively.
Texas State won the only other meeting in the series, a 73-65 victory in their first meeting of the season on Jan. 25. Stakes are much higher on Saturday, and considering the Bobcats only have one true road win, expect the Trojans too keep dancing in March.

The Other *POM* Juice
April 23, 2010
Servings:2 servings
My new favourite fruit: The pomelo! Slightly tart, and slightly sweeter than a grapefruit, it makes delicious juice.
1 Pomelo
I like to:
1. Cut pomelo in half and remove peel and pith.
2. Cut sections into smaller sized pieces.
3. Throw it in the blender and blend, blend, blend.
4. Strain the juice since the fruit is very fibrous.
5. Pour into glasses and drink it up!

Fantasy: Wide Receiver Tiers
Mile High Megatron of Demaryius Thomas (Broncos) as he's known to most of the world outside of Denver, has the potential to join Tier One this season. If Peyton Manning's neck stays fused, Thomas will have a breakout season. Mike Wallace (Steelers) is an elite talent, and certainly one of the best deep threats in the game. Although, there are question marks surrounding Todd Haley's offense, and how everyone in Pittsburgh is adjusting to it. Hakeem Nicks (Giants) may not be ready for Week 1, but if he's healthy, don't overlook him. Nicks is capable of being as dominant as any wideout in the NFL, and he's a better red zone target than teammate Cruz. Miles Austin (Cowboys) and Dez Bryant (Cowboys) are both capable of having huge years. Austin is the safer choice -- 70 receptions, 1,000 yards, and 7-to-10 touchdowns are not out of line -- but Bryant is the high reward choice. Obviously, Bryant's renewed focus has been overblown considering the recent news involving his mother, but there's no doubting his talent. If he finds refuge from the outside world on the field, only Thomas' ceiling is as high.
A.J. Green (Bengals) and Julio Jones (Falcons) came into the league together, and it appears they are going to climb the ladder of top receivers together as well. Only 16 rookies have eclipsed the 1,000-yard barrier, including Green. Jones was 41 yards short last season. I expect both to take steps forward. Dwyane Bowe (Chiefs) posted 81 receptions for 1,159 yards with five touchdowns, despite playing without starting quarterback Matt Cassel the final seven games of the season. Bowe also hit those marks without home run threat Jamaal Charles in the lineup. He had 15 scores two years ago with both Cassel and Charles playing. It's possible to nab a No. 1 receiver in Round 5 or 6. There are some who believe Vincent Jackson (Buccaneers) won't be as productive in Tampa Bay, because Josh Freeman hasn't shown he's in Philip Rivers league. The thing is Jackson wasn't Rivers primary target in San Diego, Antonio Gates was -- when healthy of course. In Tampa, there's no doubt Jackson will be the No. 1 target. If the Buccaneers can run the ball effectively, he and Freeman could dominate with play action.
I've never been a big fan of Marques Colston (Saints). However, he's certainly been one of the safest bets in fantasy -- he has had at least 1,000 yards and seven TDs in five of six seasons. Brandon Lloyd (Patriots) makes stupid catches. Here's one against the Chargers. Take time, and look at the rest of them on YouTube. It's silly. Since this exercise is all about preparation, here's an SAT question: If Tom Brady worked well with Josh McDaniels, and McDaniels worked well with Lloyd; will Brady work will with Lloyd? The answer is yes. DeSean Jackson (Eagles) can be worth a couple of Head-to-Head victories a season by himself, but he can also pull a David Copperfield, and disappear. It's maddening. The phrase is overused, but "it is, what it is". He has his money, now let's see if he finds consistency. I'll go out on a limb, and say Malcom Floyd (Chargers) will be San Diego's most productive receiver this season. Don't be surprised if he surpasses Jackson's numbers in the offense.

Beginning and ending with prayer, this workshop invites participants to consider embodiment as an essential aspect of preaching. Florence McGregor works within theatre and church to teach classical vocal and physical modalities to enhance performance and delivery. Based in a deep love for the spiritual connection of text and sound within the body, this series of workshops will move through physical and vocal warm-ups to textual, vocal and emotional exercises, an analysis and practice of classical reading through pronunciation and punctuation to enhance the presentation of sacred texts. The workshops explore being physically and emotionally present for the purposes of creating Divine intimacy with each other and with sacred texts in our churches.
During the last 15 years Florence has been teaching and studying classical vocal and physical modalities that practice the specific and sacred connection/relationship between 'actor - audience' and 'preacher - congregation'. "Preacher Gym" was one of the workshops at the Toronto Festival of Preaching this year.
Mondays, January 26, February 23, March 23, April 27 2015 from 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. at Emmanuel College.

Bench Press
It doesn't matter that Chuck Hagel is a Republican -- or even a defense expert.
- By Lawrence J. Korb<p> Lawrence J. Korb, a Senior Fellow at the Center for American Progress, served as an assistant secretary defense in the Reagan administration. Alex Rothman and Max Hoffman are research assistants at the Center. </p>
With President Obama's nomination of Chuck Hagel to be the next secretary of defense, some analysts and many Democrats will bemoan the fact that a Democratic president once again needs to rely on a Republican to fill a top national security position. According to this view, the Democratic national security bench is much thinner than the Republicans'. But, since the end of World War II, presidents have often appointed members of the other party (as well as career civil servants) to key posts.
Yes, President Clinton appointed a Republican senator, William Cohen, to succeed Democratic defense intellectual William Perry as secretary of defense late in his second term. But George W. Bush kept on Clinton appointee George Tenet as his first CIA director. Likewise, right after his election, Richard Nixon offered the post of secretary of defense to Democratic Senator Henry Jackson, and the man who was eventually confirmed as secretary, Melvin Laird, kept on many Democrats, including Paul Warnke, when he took over the Pentagon. Reagan appointed former Jackson staffer Richard Perle, former Carter Pentagon official Paul Wolfowitz, and Democratic heavyweight Paul Nitze to key posts on his national security team.
President Obama did keep a Bush appointee, Robert Gates, on as his secretary of defense, but Gates is a career CIA officer who, as he noted repeatedly, had served under seven presidents from both parties throughout his four decades in government. Moreover, George W. Bush's first secretary of state, General Colin Powell, was a career military officer who had served as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under Bill Clinton and who had actually been offered the post of secretary of state by Clinton. And Reagan appointed career Foreign Service Officer Frank Carlucci, who had served as deputy CIA director in the Carter administration, to be both deputy secretary and then secretary of defense.
Not only have presidents often gone outside their own parties to fill key national security posts, they've often gone outside the national security establishment altogether. George Shultz, Reagan's secretary of state, is an economist who served in the Nixon administration as labor secretary, as head of the Office of Management and Budget, and then as treasury secretary. Reagan's secretary of defense, Caspar Weinberger, had also run OMB and was secretary of health, education, and welfare in the Nixon administration. In addition, one of his national security advisors, William Clark, was a judge in California.
Similarly, George H.W. Bush appointed James Baker to be his secretary of state even though Baker's previous government service was as secretary of the treasury and White House chief of staff. Moreover, when he selected Congressman Dick Cheney to run the Pentagon, Cheney had had only minimal involvement with defense matters during his time on the Hill.
Based on the criteria used by Reagan and George H.W. Bush, the Democratic bench is plenty deep. President Obama could have turned to successful Democratic executives such as Secretary of Education Arnold Duncan, Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius, White House chief of staff and former OMB director Jack Lew, or former Secretary of the Treasury Lawrence Summers for high-level national security posts. Previous presidents have also turned to individuals from outside government with little or no background in foreign policy or partisan politics. Dwight Eisenhower selected Charles Wilson from General Motors to run the Pentagon, and John Kennedy chose Robert McNamara from Ford for the same post.
And the "deep Republican bench" did not help George W. Bush when it came to running the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The fact that the three top Republicans in the Bush Pentagon — namely Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, Deputy Secretary Paul Wolfowitz, and Undersecretary for Policy Doug Feith — had all served previously in the Pentagon did not prevent them from messing up both wars.
But even before Hagel's nomination was made official, three Republican senators — Tom Coburn (R-OK), Dan Coats (R-IN), and John Cornyn (R-TX) — said they would not vote for him.
Coburn says Hagel does not have the experience to manage a large organization like the Pentagon. Leaving aside the fact that Hagel has held many private and public sector management positions, does this mean that Coburn would have voted against two of the more successful secretaries of defense who came directly from the House, namely Republicans Melvin Laird and Dick Cheney?
Coats contends that Hagel has shown much disrespect for the military. Really? He disrespects it so much that he volunteered to serve in combat, was awarded two Purple Hearts, and coauthored the 9/11 GI Bill over the opposition of the Bush administration. (Coats, by the way, was turned down for the secretary of defense post by George W. Bush after he was interviewed for the job.) Does this mean that Coats would have voted against Caspar Weinberger and Leon Panetta, who both tried to slash defense spending while running OMB?
Cornyn says he cannot vote for Hagel because of his problem with Israel. What problem? According to several retired ambassadors, flag officers, former national security advisors, a former Republican secretary of defense, and former senators from both parties, no one has been more steadfast in supporting America's commitment to Israel than Hagel. And would Cornyn have voted against James Baker, who had a problem with Israel's settlement expansion and cut off loan guarantees to the country?
Neoconservatives like William Kristol, editor of the Weekly Standard, argue that for all these reasons the case for Hagel is extraordinarily weak. Really? Hagel has the legislative background of Cheney, Laird, and Cohen; the management experience of McNamara and Wilson; and more Purple Hearts than his 23 predecessors combined. That's why the president nominated Hagel — and why he was right to do so.

should I replace my standing rigging myself
This winter I definitely need to replace my standing rigging. I was at my local home depot and noticed that they carry stainless steel wire rope the size and style that is appropriate for my boat. I need to save money as much as possible and was thinking I could just buy the ends from a marine supplier but buy the wire rope in bulk from my home depot and put them together myself. I am sure I can physically do it and are wondering if there is something I'm overlooking. I can get a 250 ft roll of stainless steel wire rope for $79. The ends are going to cost much more than the wire rope. Also looking for someplace to acquire the ends for as little money as possible. The boat is a 1977 26ft trailer sailor, fractional rig, used exclusively on a fresh water lake. Any advise would be much appreciated.

Joined: Dec 2004

Fuel injected, water cooled, electric start, street legal, low seat height with killer ground clearance, under 100 kilos, Brembo brakes, KTM WP suspension, "large steering lock" (which I take to mean tight turning radius), 5.5 liter fuel tank (maybe 125 - 150 mile range?), etc. Yes, de-tuned to 23 HP, but that's not a show stopper for me. And it looks very cool!
I don't remember how many HP my old Montesa had, but on the Cota 247 it was all about torque, not HP and high-RPM power and that bike would go literally anywhere (why oh why did I ever sell that bike
????). You could blip the throttle on that bike and it would literally jump off the ground; you could ride endless wheelies on it. I've owned plenty of 125s, 175s, 225s, and 250s with power in that range (or less) and had a blast on them, but they didn't have top drawer disc brakes, FI, fantastic suspension, reasonable seat height, etc. Even with 49 years of riding experience I can see this thing being a hoot to ride. I'm looking for a lightweight performance trail bike, not a motocrosser or Dakar contender and this thing looks like the real deal. Don't need no stinking rubber-mounted turn signals, etc.
I would love to get a ride on this bike. I hear they're for sale in Canada... My son lives in northern North Dakota, just a few miles from Winnipeg... Hmmmm....
Of course, I have to admit to being a total motorhead and admit that if I could re-tune it for some additional HP I would of course do it
. You wouldn't have to futz with chopping weight to get some performance, like on my old DR650 or KLR650, both great bikes with double the HP but also +130 pounds made them real pigs in truly rough terrain.

We traveled to Olympia for the Capital City Half Marathon. The Cottage served as excellent headquarters for travel throughout the area. The house is as described and the pictures accurate. The place was clean with a well stocked kitchen and extra toiletries in the bathroom. The Wifi was strong. We loved sitting outside on the patio and enjoyed the short walk to downtown.
We did have some trouble getting in on our first night. Ellen was out of town and a we couldn't find the key despite instructions. This is a good reminder for all of us in the airbnb community to make sure you've got that worked out before you're jet lagged and left with weak signal and low battery! It all worked out fine and in the end we had a wonderful time. I would definitely recommend this place for others visiting the area.
The cottage was private and had a beautifully landscape yard. The side yard was especially quaint. It was a nice size, with a large well-stocked kitchen. The bed was comfortable and since I'm a nursing mother, I loved the comfy chair in the bedroom too. One minus--there was an ant problem, but it seemed like the owners were trying to take care of it.
Although I didn't get to meet Ellen, she was a great host - she responded quickly to communication and provided plenty of information. The Cottage is in a delightful neighbourhood, a 10 minute or so walk from downtown and is a beautifully decorated space, with a wonderful decking/garden area to chill out in. The bed and bedding were SO comfy! I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would come back again.
Our stay was perfect. Ellen's cottage is beautiful, private and peaceful. I absolutely recommend booking a stay here anytime you can visit Olympia!! Incredible.
My girlfriend and I never got a chance to meet Ellen, but her place was perfect! It was super comfortable, quiet, and a short walk to downtown. I'd highly recommend staying here if Olympia is your destination!
The cottage was cozy and lovely. Very private experience and a short walk to downtown Olympia. Highly recommended.
We had a great stay at Ellen's cottage. We never met her in person, but she had arranged easy access to the cottage and we found it to be perfect for our needs. In fact, it was fully furnished with anything that one might need for a comfortable stay with a fully functional kitchen to boot. One of my favorite features was the little private yard off the cottage's patio, which we utilized multiple times. The location is also quite good, close to the Downtown area (about 10-15 minute walk) yet far enough from the noise and hustle-and-bustle typical for downtown areas.
This host has 34 reviews for other properties.View Other Reviews

From the Obituary of Thomas M. Messer
"It was due to Tom's charm, grace, diplomacy and — and this is a point that none of us should ever forget — his love of great art that Peggy gave her collection and palazzo to the Guggenheim and not to the Tate," Peter Lawson-Johnston, who was the Guggenheim's president during Mr. Messer's directorship, said at a celebration of Mr. Messer's 90th birthday in 2010. He added: "Here we are, three decades later, with Guggenheims in Bilbao, Berlin, Venice, and soon to be Abu Dhabi. The foundation for all this was laid by Tom Messer. And I can tell you, he laid that foundation under budget."
