If you have a need to power up your computer with a remote control, Logisys has the answer. Their remote multifunction panel allows you to do just that, and more.
You almost don't even need to read the instruction manual, because all the cables are clearly marked, so you know where to plug them in. The way the panel works, is that you can plug in the Case/Reset cords into your motherboard, to replace the ones from your case. But, so that your case can still have the functionality of turning the computer on and off from the front power button, you can take the cords from your case and also plug those into the panel.
Overall, installation took around 20 minutes with no problems at all. Next came the fun part of testing it out! I quickly put together the computer, and grabbed the remote. Sure enough, pushing the power on the remote, powered up the computer without a hitch. The reset also works as intended.
The thought of driving your car into your driveway, and opening your garage door and powering on your computer at the same time popped into my head. I was skeptical that this would work at all, so I went out to the driveway to test it out. There, I pushed the button and headed back into the house. Sure enough, the computer was on!
Still skeptical, I went out into the furthest point in the backyard, around 50 feet from the computer. It still worked! In most cases then, if you are driving into your driveway, the remote control will function great. The controller is designed to go on your key chain, making things even easier.
Of course, there are more ways to make use of this feature than just pulling into your driveway. This would be perfect for your HTPC. You could sit back on your couch, and turn it on from a distance, rather than getting up to power it on. If your HTPC crashes (*shrug*) while using it, you could just hit the reset on the controller and be back up running again quickly. Since HTPC's are always short of inside space, the temperature gauges would be welcomed as well, so you can make sure things are not getting too hot in there.
In the end, even though it sounds like a funny idea to implement into a panel, I would have to recommend it. Personally, I didn't think there would be a need for anything like this, until after I installed it. That's when the creative juices started flowing, and I'm sure others can come up with even better ideas.
The final SRP is currently not known, but I would expect it to be around the $25US area. Thanks as always to Logisys for sending this along, and I can't wait to see what they come up with next!
As always, if you have any questions or comments about the review, or just want to know something more specific about the panel, feel free to post in our related review thread. Registration is not required, but welcomed!

Mike Kim
|Mike Kim
|December 11, 1976
|Consultant, Author, Public Speaker
Mike Kim (born December 11, 1976) is an author, consultant, inspirational speaker, NGO founder, and North Korea specialist based in Los Angeles. He is a Korean-American who, in 2003, moved to the China-North Korea border and founded Crossing Borders, a nonprofit dedicated to providing humanitarian assistance to North Korean refugees. He is the author of the Wall Street Journal featured book Escaping North Korea: Defiance and Hope in the World's Most Repressive Country, a current events memoir published in 2008 by Rowman & Littlefield, about his experiences at the China-North Korea border helping North Korean refugees and human trafficking victims. Escaping North Korea is being developed into a feature film and the book has been translated into Turkish and Polish. He is currently a Managing Director at Ferrazzi Greenlight, a management consulting firm and research institute, working with founder and CEO Keith Ferrazzi on human behavior and culture change.[1][2]
Crossing Borders[edit]
On New Year's Day 2003, Kim gave up his financial planning business in Chicago, Illinois and left for China on a one-way ticket carrying little more than two duffle bags. While living near the North Korean border, he operated undercover as a student of North Korean taekwondo, training under two North Korean masters —eventually receiving a second-degree blackbelt.[3] He founded Crossing Borders, a nonprofit dedicated to providing humanitarian assistance to North Korean refugees. In his book, he estimated that during his time on the field over 60% of female defectors were victims of sex trafficking. The organization has been a regular contributor to the State Department's Annual Trafficking in Persons Report and has testified at a congressional hearing on the topic of combating human trafficking in China.[4]
Media and Events[edit]
Kim frequently appears in the media: He was a guest on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and has appeared in The Wall Street Journal and on CNN Anderson Cooper 360. He has been interviewed by major international media groups such as Fox News, CNN, BBC, Reuters, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, Yonhap News Agency, The Korea Times, The Korea Daily, and Korean Broadcasting System.
Escaping North Korea: The Movie[edit]
After the interview with Jon Stewart, there was interest from Hollywood in turning Escaping North Korea into a motion picture and Kim received offers for the option for the book. The book-to-film project is in development,[5][6] with a team working on the script. Kim attended the 2010 Pusan International Film Festival and met with leading South Korean distributors, producers, directors, and actors to discuss his vision for the film. He has also been meeting with high-level South Korean government officials explaining the movie's importance in promoting the Korean image and brand abroad.[7]
Career After China-North Korea[edit]
Kim received his MBA from Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business.[8] He is also a 1999 graduate from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. In interviews, Kim has referred to the late Ambassador Mark Palmer as a mentor and a person who has deeply influenced him by his example of working effectively in the business, nonprofit, and government sectors. Palmer wrote the foreword to Escaping North Korea and commented, "This is a story of heroes. Of North Koreans increasingly and courageously evading the dictates of the system at home to survive and risking their lives to flee the world's most repressive dictatorship. And of a heroic young Korean American, the author, Mike Kim, who risked his own life for four years on the China-North Korea border to help them."
In June 2010, Kim was voted in as a term member of the Council on Foreign Relations.
Kim is a management consultant and continues his book and public speaking tour, while working on the book-to-movie project. He is represented by The Guild Agency Speakers Bureau & Intellectual Talent Management founded by James Marshall Reilly for all public speaking.
At Deloitte Consulting, he was a Specialist leading initiatives applying business solutions and technology to social issues such as human rights and anti-human trafficking.[9] He led the effort in January 2013 for the Deloitte and Georgetown Anti-Human Trafficking Symposium with special guest and keynote speaker Mira Sorvino.[10] [11]
He is currently a Managing Director at Ferrazzi Greenlight, a management consulting firm and research institute, working with founder and CEO Keith Ferrazzi on human behavior and culture change client work, public speaking, and writing.[12][13] Part of his role at the firm includes assisting founder Keith Ferrazzi with Greenlight Giving Foundation initiatives to serve at-risk and underprivileged youth. Mike writes for The Huffington Post Blog.[14]

Originally written on UM Hoops | Last updated 11/19/14
WASHINGTON — Devin Booker hasn't trimmed his list of schools. But he will soon, and Michigan will almost certainly make the cut. The Wolverines' top priority in the Class of 2014 displayed his full arsenal of skills at the Nike Global Challenge in front of dozens of high-level college coaches, including John Beilein, Tom Izzo, John Calipari, Frank Haith and Roy Williams. A report surfaced Saturday that Booker had cut his list of schools to five, but the 6-foot-4 shooting guard quickly went to Twitter to refute the story. Booker will stick with his plan of trimming his list after the summer evaluation period ends. "It's about eight or nine," Booker said. "I haven't officially cut it down yet or anything. I'm just taking it slow, I'm enjoying it, and maybe after the summer I'll cut some down officially. "That's probably when I'll cut it to seven or five, I'm not sure, and then I'll just go from there." It's a very safe bet the Wolverines will still be in the mix at that point

Country music with a modern twist
Discover some of the younger country music artists at the 2009 Mildura Country Music Festival.
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
Over 100 artists will play over 10 days in 20 different locations around Mildura and Wentworth for the 2009 Mildura Country Music Festival.
A lot of them are young and putting their own twist on country music - ABC Mildura Swan Hill is meeting some of the upcoming artists throughout the week.
Mitchell Shadlow is not new to the live country music circuit.
He has been travelling with his music for 26 years, which included a visit to Mildura a few years ago to support Slim Dusty.
Mitchell has been living in Ireland for the past 6 years, but says he loves coming back to Australia to gather inspiration for his songs.
"I wrote this song sitting down with a beer looking at the sun set over the lake in Foster."
Lou Bradley is in her last Mildura Country Music Festival, as she has recently signed with a record label.
This will make her ineligible for the local festival, as it only showcases independent artist.
Lou hails from the North coast of NSW and says that the music is a bit 'hippy' where she comes from.
"I describe my music as bohemian country, a bit rootsy and a bit folky," she says.
Lou performed a song off her new album called 'La La La not listening.'
She says this song describes how she has had to ignore certain people in the music industry who wanted to make her 'blond and pretty.'
Sam Hawksley is a young artist who likes to sing about summer.
Sam grew up in Orange, but spent most of his life in Sydney.
When trying to describe what style of music he plays,
"It's just music isn't it" he said.
Sam sang one of his popular songs called, It sounds like summer, which includes a reference to cricket on the ABC, which Sam says lets him know summer has arrived.
Victoria Baillie, grew up in Moe in eastern Victoria, but now lives on the central coast in NSW.
She has been coming to the Mildura Country Music Festival since she was about nine years of age when she competed in the talent quest with her sister.
This is her third time at festival as an artist. She explains how important this festival is to 'unsigned and independent' artists.
Rachel Richards is a bush balladeer from Brisbane who likes to put a modern twist on her music.
A couple of very long eight hour stints in the car with two small children, one of whom was sick, has lead bush balladeer Rachel Richards to the 2009 Mildura Country Music Festival.
From Brisbane, Rachel left three days ago to make the trip to Mildura for her second appearance at the festival.
Eleven years ago she appeared in the talent quest, but she says she was 'so bad' they had to turn her down.
"I didn't know you had to tune your guitar, but I've practiced a lot in 11 years," Rachel says.
Rachel describes herself as a bush balladeer, but she is bringing a modern twist to the traditional Australian style.
"We still love and respect the music of Slim Dusty and the like, but we grew up listening to different music than they did."
"If we're allowed to have that little bit of freedom to use that pick strum style, that's main style of bush style, but of were allowed to put a contemporary twist into it, this music can survive," she says.

HOLLYWOOD director James Cameron found little evidence of life when he descended 11,000 metres to the deepest point in the oceans last year. If only he had taken a microscope.
Ronnie Glud at the University of Southern Denmark in Odense and his colleagues dispatched autonomous sensors and sample collectors into the Mariana trench in the western Pacific. Every cubic centimetre of mud they brought back contained, on average, 10 million microbes – about 10 times more than mud collected from a plateau at the top of the trench. The Mariana microbes were also twice as active (Nature Geoscience, doi.org/kts).
At first glance, that is surprising. Life in the deep mostly relies on leftovers from the surface for food: detritus that slowly drops into the abyss. Just 1 per cent reaches the abyssal plateaus, so you might expect even less to get to the trench's deepest point. In fact, says Glud, ocean trenches are particularly good at capturing this food. Their broad, steep slopes act as a funnel channelling it right down to the bottom – where it fertilises the bacterial zoo that Cameron missed.

Organized in southwestern Connecticut in the summer of 1862, the Seventeenth had fought in one battle – a disastrous initiation at Chancellorsville – prior to Gettysburg. The regiment arrived on the field on the afternoon of July 1st with high morale, solid leadership, and a desire for redemption. Within thirty-six hours, the Seventeenth had fought two engagements and lost nearly two hundred men; in the process establishing a reputation as a tough and steadfast unit. Spend an evening learning about this keen band of New England patriots, on the ground where they fought. Please note this is a 'caravan' tour: after leaving Blocher's Knoll, expect to drive to other tour stops.

04.02.06 - Interview by Troy Ondrizek: Just last night the boxing community was abuzz with the news of Briggs and Tua squaring off against one another in April. Finally we have a fight between two proven and legitimate fighters; trying to get another title shot. Just as the euphoria began to wan a little; the whole dream came crashing down. David Tua backed out. Yes, when I heard that I was crushed. I had high hopes for this fight. So did many other fans. So Shannon wants everyone to know where he stands on this issue. So I got in touch with him to hear his side of the story.
Troy: Hey Shannon hows it going?
Shannon Briggs: "Not good Troy, nice to hear from you though."
Troy: I have heard conflicting reports regarding the Tua fight. Please can you share some light in the matter?
Shannon: "Troy I'm pissed off. Tua pulled out of the fight. We were going to make decent money, so that wasn't it. I got a call last night saying the fight might not happen, and then he pulled out. That pisses me off. David and I go way back. We have been trying to fight for a long time. That time was supposed to be now."
Troy: So do you think he is trying to dodge you?
Shannon: Indirectly, Yes! He said he wanted four tune-up before he takes a fight with a guy like me. I can understand that. He said that I have been active and he hasn't; that he has too much ring rust right now. I have been in that position before. I wasn't prepared for the Lewis fight, and I was like 280lbs before the McCline fight. I was drained for that fight and McCline still couldn't knock me out. I literally got up off my couch and fought Sedreck Fields. All of those fights were mistakes I didn't need to make. I still think that if you agree to take a fight; than fight. I think Rahman knocked the fight out of him literally with that supposed punch after the bell. Showtime was kind enough to give us a date and a venue for the fight, and they were paying us decent money considering the current money market for boxing. I mean, don't take a fight if you're not ready; I should know.
Troy: Are there any other big fights out there for you?
Shannon: Not really. Guys like Brock and Peter have avoided fighting me. When I was young and not in the right state of mind; everybody and their grandmother wanted to fight me. Now that I am in better shape than ever, and I am more mature and dedicated; nobody wants to fight me. I'm thinking of fighting two more fights, and if these guys still avoid me then I will go to K1 to fight. They fight like every week, and the money is good. I have a family to feed you know, and I've done all i can outside of boxing to make a good living. I'm going to go and fight that chump Koval now; he has been talking thrash and needs to be silenced. A fight with Brewster or Valuev or any champion is my goal. I still want to be champion of the world. A fight with David would've put me right there.
Troy: So when are you going to fight Chris Koval?
Shannon: Probably later than planned. Sometime in March. The fight will be a good tune-up for me.
Troy: How is your injured ankle doing?
Shannon: It isn't one hundred percent, but I still can fight and train. The fight with David was like seven weeks away. I would've been ready for that fight; hell I would've still fought with a bad ankle if I just got it taped up.
Troy: I hope for your fans that you stay in boxing and not go to K1. Your good for boxing and vice verse.
Shannon: I don't really want to do it. I would much rather box, but I love to fight and I will do what I need to to keep busy. I just want to thank you Troy and to thank eastsideboxing for keeping me in the news. I want to thank the fans who have supported me along the way. I want to show my critics that their judgment of me is wrong. I am doing all I can to be champion. Later Troy and good luck.

Medicaid cuts: teeth pulled, transplant called off
Just when caseloads hit their highest point, the nation's new health care law required states not to change the rules on who's eligible for Medicaid. That means states can't roll up the welcome mat by tightening Medicaid's income requirements.
So states have resorted to a variety of painful options.
In Arizona, lawmakers stopped paying for some kinds of transplants, including livers for people with hepatitis C. When the cuts took effect Oct. 1, Medicaid patient Francisco Felix, who needs a liver, suddenly had to raise $500,000 to get a transplant.
The 32-year-old's case took a dramatic turn in November when a friend's wife died, and her liver became available. Felix was prepped for surgery in hopes financial donations would come in. When the money didn't materialize, the liver went to someone else, and Felix went home. His doctor told him he has a year before he'll be too sick for a transplant.
"They are taking away his opportunity to live," said his wife, Flor Felix. "It's impossible for us or any family to get that much money." The family is collecting donations through a website and plans a yard sale this weekend, she said.
The choices are difficult for states that have already cut payments to doctors and hospitals to the bone.
"If we don't see an economic recovery where state revenues rebound, they're really going to be very strained on how they can make ends meet," said Diane Rowland, executive director of the Kaiser Commission on Medicaid and the Uninsured.
States may consider lowering payment rates to nursing homes or home health agencies or further reducing payments to doctors, Rowland said.
"The problem here is the program is pretty lean, and payment rates are pretty low," she said. Patients can't find care because fewer doctors accept the low payments.
Prescription drug coverage in states is an optional benefit, another possible place to cut, Rowland said. "But if you cut back on people's psychotropic drugs, is that penny-wise and pound-foolish? Do they end up in institutions where Medicaid pays more for their care?"
In Illinois, late payments became the rule.
Tom Miller closed his pharmacy in rural southern Illinois this summer and is going through bankruptcy, largely because the state was chronically late making Medicaid payments to him. Most of his former customers are in the program.
With the state sometimes months behind in payments, he couldn't pay his suppliers. Five workers lost their jobs when his business closed.
"You can only fight it for so long," said Miller, 54. He now works as a pharmacist in a hospital. He misses his old clients, the families he grew to know.
"I was in my third generation. I've had moms who had kids. I saw the kids raised, and they had their own children," he said. As a neighborhood pharmacist, "you're their friend. You're family."

She should be patient and hope and wait for change. Some of us still disagree with her on probably everything but would fight for her right to state her opinion. The problem she faces is that no country is perfect and I am sure she would find the Czech Republic provincial.
If gays could marry here in the US MN might have more divorces than CE!
I think she is right on in her criticism of the Communists. She need to make the same choice that other Americans do; if the eneny of my enemy is my friend who is my enemy? As a conservative GOPer I see the fundamentalist Muslims and their similarly minded co-religionists as my primary enemy. I would rather be in a trench with Alec Baldwin, Barbra Streisand and Rosie O'Donnell than with the PLO, AlQaeda and the Taliban. Can liberals say that they would rather be in a trench with President Bush, Jim Dobson and Rush Limbaugh fighting the Islamofascists?
Really MN do you think that homosexuals fare better here in the US than they might in Taliban led Afghanistan? Where would one's tennis career have been under Sheik Omar? Even the Communists taught girls to read and encouraged you to play tennis. Please take a deep breath and fully evaluate the situation.
Lastly, might I point out that the three area affected by 9/11 are all blue state area(technically the Pentagon is in red state VA but CD is very blue). If the Islamofascists strike again it is very likely tobe a blue state again with a big city like Chicago, LA, SF, Seattle. It is in your own best interests to maximize the security and work with a less than ideal ally today to keep yourself safe until tomorrow.

Lincoln Bloomfield's remarks concerning International Affairs.
The Changed Threat
Today marks a period in our history when our nations have been very busy, for going on three years now, adapting to global challenges we have never before faced. Policies and security structures that had kept us free and at peace for decades have, in an instant flash of catastrophic terrorism, been recognized to be insufficient, even obsolete. We have retooled our national security approaches on the fly, as it were, urgently seeking relief from our newfound vunerabilities and leverage to exert in the post September 11, 2001 international security environment.
Observers may differ about what the future will bring, and how best we should address its challenges. But no one can deny that violent forces fueled by hatred have been unleashed against ordinary people freely going about their daily lives in open, democratic societies, on several continents.
The terrorists' violence defies our deterrence, mocks our strength, and revels in doing harm to peoples and institutions we have long regarded as non-combatant and apolitical even neutral in wartime. It is the innocence of these victims that defines this asymmetric terrorist threat; and if there was ever a notion that some societies or countries, by remaining silent and standing aside from the Global War On Terrorism, could be exempted from the extremists' program of violent provocation, it must now be acknowledged and recognized that such a notion is demonstrably wrong.
I came into this position in the U.S. administration three years ago, believing that the strong and credible U.S. military establishment and alliance structure that had so successfully contested and outlived Soviet communism for five decades was still needed in the 21st century. In early 2001, major war did not seem to be an imminent prospect, and so it was possible to think about saving a little defense budget money on immediate needs and instead gearing modernization efforts to longer-term transformation.
Our crystal ball in those early months of the administration simply did not show what was about to happen, and the immediate burdens it would place on our own and our allies' forces. But notwithstanding the operations to remove dangerous regimes in Afghanistan and Iraq, it still seems, in 2004, that conventional war waged between national military forces over empire, resources or territory is not nearly as likely as it was during the Cold War although we must continually pay attention to the Korean Peninsula and the Indian-Pakistani relationship, among other potential hot spots.
Hearts and Minds
The central fact behind the collapse of the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact was not a battlefield defeat, but rather the catastrophic loss of credibility of the communist state among its own people. These people compared the unmet Soviet promise of a good life to the thriving model of democracy, individual rights and economic freedom increasingly found elsewhere. In other words, the Cold War was ultimately won, or lost if you prefer, based on hearts and minds.
What September 11, 2001 brought to the fore was the realization that, having survived one existential threat over the last half century, we now find ourselves in the midst of a new struggle, whose full dimensions are yet to be measured, with an entirely different ideological underpinning. Unlike the Cold War, this time no one threatens to subjugate us. Our enemies have no serious political demands. They define themselves by opposition to everything we represent. This is not a winner-take-all adversary, as in the tradition of imperial powers. This time, we are faced with a grim new form of zero sum game between ourselves and terrorists, measured in blood.
And so we adapt law enforcement, intelligence and military tools to secure our homelands and find the terrorists where they live. But no matter how effectively we use force against them, there is only one way truly to make this terrorism danger recede and that is to turn our adversaries away from a destructive ideology and try to calm their hatred. Once again, it seems, we are caught in a generation-long struggle for the hearts and minds of a large segment of the world's population, centered this time among the Arab and Islamic young generation. I believe it is important to talk about hearts, minds, credibility, commitment, and conscience when we are talking about achieving the piece in the modern age. All that separates 5,000 al Qaeda terrorists from 500,000 al Qaeda terrorists is the level of anger and hopelessness among their potential recruits. And at the same time, all that separates a mighty multinational coalition from a go-it-alone U.S. military adventure is the allied level of confidence in America's wisdom and reliability as a security partner.
These are political and psychological factors. They are profoundly important to our security. Perhaps our best weapons in this terrorism struggle notably include our words, foreign aid, and promotion of reform. Yet, let us be clear that military capabilities are still very relevant, even if our enemies attack with different weapons, different tactics and an entirely different ethical and moral ethos than our own.
New Logic of Arms Transfers
Surely all of you have taken note of a shifting focus of defense planning that points to an evolution in the international armaments marketplace. No longer do we pursue foreign policy influence by providing our more advanced defense systems and services to less-developed countries on the basis of their relevance to a geopolitical competition between ourselves and other great powers. Instead, the new security focus indeed, the new security imperative must be to ensure that our principal allies and coalition partners, those who share the burden of fighting these dangerous extremists, have the advanced capabilities they need to prevail at the lowest possible cost in blood and treasure. I submit that the logic of defense trade is shifting along with the tide of history. There are fewer cross-border hostilities, and still fewer conventional military wars. Standing armies have generally been downsizing around the world over the last decade, and we see reduced overall acquisition of conventional weapons systems worldwide a drop in arms procurement of more than 37 percent since the mid-1990s in the developing world alone.
And yet, particularly since September 11, 2001, we find that we absolutely need highly capable military forces allied and coalition forces as well as American, and the more the better to deter and defeat threats all over the world. Strategic planners in the defense industry should consider these new realities in their business decisions.
What are the salient features of this 21st century strategic landscape? Well, we start with the reassuring fact that many countries see their interests if not always their day-to-day policies as closely aligned with the United States, and are inclined to work together effectively on behalf of shared purposes. Foremost among these, of course, are our European allies beginning with the United Kingdom, as well as our Pacific allies led by Japan and Australia.
There are, at the same time, other countries whose strategic orientation is either uncertain or, in some respects, at odds with ours, as a function of political values, security perspectives, and domestic public opinion. One cannot point to an overt anti-western bloc; indeed, even governments in the Arab and Islamic World generally maintain positive relations with the West. But think about the problems from which this region suffers: poor governance; absence of the rule of law; underdeveloped civil society, political participation and economic opportunities; social pressures from demographic growth; a growing income gap; high unemployment; corruption; crime; and weak education systems. The list goes on.
It is sad and ironic that while public opinion in the Middle East tends to blame the United States for their own troubles, the best hope for change in many of these countries is the agenda of reform and democratization being promoted by the United States along with the United Kingdom and many others. But my point is that supplying sophisticated arms on a large scale in the volatile and troubled Middle East is not terribly relevant to their situation.
Focusing on Our Warfighters
We are the ones who need the warfighting edge. Where three years ago we might have thought we had a decade to retool our forces and alliances, today we find ourselves in a race against time to suppress the terrorist forces, and to cool the level of popular rage and frustration before we suffer much more from the Islamic extremist contagion. I believe defense industry has already pointed the way forward to the area with the greatest relevance to our strategic situation, and hence the greatest business potential namely, high-technology systems collaboration to achieve allied interoperability in the field.
We have seen a push toward interdependence in arms production, as half of recent U.S. arms imports have come from five of the ten other largest defense exporters, whose defense imports, in turn, are mainly from the United States. Today's twenty-six North Atlantic Treaty Organization members plus Australia and Japan spent a combined $563 billion on their militaries in 2002, or 72 percent of total world military expenditures. Since 1999, developed countries' arms imports have averaged 13 percent annual growth, while developing countries' imports declined 6 percent.
The conclusion is pretty obvious: our strategic needs are converging with business trends. The future lies not in maximizing sales of defense systems to all willing buyers, but rather in focusing on our warfighters and collaborating to build the systems that will assure their effectiveness in all circumstances against the deadly extremist threat.
Export Licensing Developments
If you have been in the defense industry either in Europe or the U.S. for a few years, you will know that the American defense export licensing system has come in for its share of complaints over the years. Many of you in Society for International Affairs will also be aware of several steps taken by the Department of State, and the administration at large, to overcome legitimate concerns about how U.S. regulations were being carried out.
We have taken a rigorous look at the Department of State licensing process from one end to the other. We have put a new, bigger and more senior leadership and management team in charge and some of these Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) executives are here today to participate in discussions. Earlier this year, we inaugurated D-Trade, our fully electronic licensing capability, which will bring great new efficiencies to the process. It is a big step forward.
Our licensing staff is double what it was just five years ago. The new DDTC leadership team is building an outreach office that is already providing timely, courteous service to hundreds of callers per week. Our team is pulling out all the cases that have been unresolved for more than 100 days, and trying to resolve them. The large backlog they inherited is shrinking steadily.
And alongside these process improvements, we have broken new ground in licensing policy:
* We created the first-ever Global Project Authorization for the Joint Strike Fighter.
* We picked up the ITAR exemption negotiation with the United Kingdom, which had bogged down after talks were launched under the previous administration.
* By making the decision at senior political levels that we would depart from the formula mandated by U.S. legislation, so as to reflect the legal and regulatory authorities available to our British counterparts, this Administration carried the talks through to create a very promising new channel for accelerated defense industry collaboration.
This arrangement benefits from an active compliance partnership with London that we think will set a new standard for how to manage defense trade controls in cooperation with other governments. Of course, as many here know, we are still in serious discussion with our Congress and hope to persuade them of the merits of this important arrangement so as to bring it into force.
But the overall point here is that the Administration has paid a lot of attention to defense trade and export licensing, recognizing that if properly managed we can curb irresponsible and dangerous exports of weapons and technology, and at the same time advance very important objectives for our common defense.
Defense Trade Policy--A Priority
Indeed, the White House has been continually engaged in this area of national security. It has led the review of the U.S. Munitions List a process that has been progressing steadily over the past three years. Most importantly, it has been conducting a Presidential review of defense trade policy generally. I and my colleagues from the Pentagon and Commerce Department have become accustomed to telling audiences over the past year or two that the review has not yet reached the President's desk and that remains the case today. But let me say that this review is important to the Administration, and is receiving priority attention. So please bear with us as the final contours take shape.
What I can say is that there is more to our thinking than the proposition that we need to make our export control process run well. On that score, however, we have taken the time to consider a vast amount of analysis and a long menu of proposals reflecting past experience. We are very serious about making the defense trade controls process, led by the Department of State but involving other departments and agencies as well as foreign governments, operate in a modern, efficient manner.
We think high-level policy should be reflected in working-level regulatory decisions. And we believe allies looking to improve their own defense capabilities in cooperation with the United States should receive priority attention. That is one reason I created a policy office within our Directorate of Defense Trade Controls, led by Ann Ganzer, who is with us today. The United States already does place a very high priority on promoting alliance modernization goals, and interoperability.
We are very much aware that the road map set out by North Atlantic Treaty Organization for European and U.S. defense industries points to transatlantic transformation, which requires improving our common capabilities in force application, battlefield awareness, command and control, protection, and focused logistics. This is how we keep the new 21st century threats away from our homelands. The upcoming North Atlantic Treaty Organization Summit in Istanbul will signal the renewed relevance of an expanding NATO to our common security strategy.
Challenges for Industry
But as I think you all know, we face real challenges in bringing this vision fully into being in the area of defense trade and industrial collaboration. Some of the initiatives under consideration by President Bush will hopefully advance the process. But the first challenge our transatlantic industries face, in my view, is adjusting their business plans and strategies to reflect the national security vision I have outlined this morning. By that I mean building more sophisticated, proprietary capabilities for the home team of allied warfighters, and placing less reliance in your business plans on longer-term production and export for a wide international market.
The second challenge is perhaps an inevitable by-product of a world pressed into crisis-response by September 11, 2001 and the Global War on Terrorism. In historical terms we are just at the beginning of our international security response to this problem. We find our forces stretched very hard, working with allies and partners to deter aggression on the Korean Peninsula, maintain stability in the Pacific Rim including the Taiwan Straits, finish the job of stabilizing the Balkans, responding to the recent crises in Liberia and Haiti, and of course helping fifty million Afghans and Iraqis find their way to legitimate self-government and reconstruction in a secure environment.
It should not surprise anyone that there are hard questions being asked in Washington, including in the U.S. Congress, about whether the transfer abroad of our premier defense systems, and more so, advanced technologies, will truly advance our national security. One of my responsibilities is to answer those concerns, and we have been doing a lot of that on Capitol Hill in recent weeks. There is no getting around the importance of effective controls on defense goods services and technologies after they have been exported. And those countries and companies overseas that work best with us in assuring that our legal obligations are met, will clearly find the most receptive response to their requests for American defense exports. But there is, frankly, a deeper challenge even than the goal of enhancing our transatlantic technology management cooperation and practices. We are far from a consensus view within our own political systems on what the defense industrial role should be in supporting our international security strategies.
Within the European Union, there is talk of changing policy on the sale of lethal weapons to China. As my American colleagues here will attest, such a move would have real consequences for the way defense exports to Europe are viewed in Washington.
And within our own political system, we hear hard questions about whether globalization within the defense industry is a benefit or a liability to U.S. security. The extent of foreign defense industry's role as a key supplier to the Pentagon is coming under intense scrutiny in our Congress.
Obviously there is a reverse flow of exports from American companies to allied defense establishments. But you can see how some in Washington can view both imports and exports as a liability, the one as a threat to our own industrial base, and the other as a risk of losing our prime technologies.
How Do I Answer These Challenges? More Importantly, How Do You Answer Them?
If I can leave you with one message this morning, it is that defense industry needs to put some facts on the table. You need to show governments how your business plans support the transformation vision while protecting crown-jewel war-winning capabilities. And, you need to demonstrate that the globalized pattern of trade supports a healthy U.S. industrial base, and provides a better return on the defense dollar than a more restrictive trade pattern.
I have been hearing people say for more than three years that industry is a key foundation of defense and I believe this. At a time when the threat to our security is changing so much, and our security institutions are evolving so fast, our defense industry needs to sharpen its vision, and its path forward, to claim its rightful place in our long-term strategy to secure the peace and defend our freedom.

Edmund Spenser (c. 1552 – 13 January, 1599) was an important English poet and Poet Laureate best known for The Faerie Queene, an epic poem celebrating, through fantastical allegory, the Tudor dynasty and Elizabeth I. He is recognized as one of the premier craftsmen of Modern English verse in its infancy.
In the 1570s Spenser went to Ireland, probably in the service of the newly appointed lord deputy, Arthur Grey. From 1579 to 1580, he served with the English forces during the Second Desmond Rebellion. After the defeat of the rebels he was awarded lands in County Cork that had been confiscated in the Munster Plantation during the Elizabethan reconquest of Ireland. Among his acquaintances in the area was Walter Raleigh, a fellow colonist.
Through his poetry Spenser hoped to secure a place at court, which he visited in Raleigh's company to deliver his most famous work, the Faerie Queene. However, he boldly antagonized the queen's principal secretary, Lord Burghley, and all he received in recognition of his work was a pension in 1591. When it was proposed that he receive payment of 100 pounds for his epic poem, Burghley remarked, "What, all this for a song!"
In the early 1590s, Spenser wrote a prose pamphlet titled, A View of the Present State of Ireland. This piece remained in manuscript form until its publication in print in the mid-seventeenth century. It is probable that it was kept out of print during the author's lifetime because of its inflammatory content. The pamphlet argued that Ireland would never be totally 'pacified' by the English until its indigenous language and customs had been destroyed, if necessary by violence. Spenser recommended scorched earth tactics, such as he had seen used in the Desmond Rebellions, to create famine.
The paradox proposed by Spenser was that only by methods that overrode the rule of law could the conditions be created for the true establishment of the rule of law. Although it has been highly regarded as a polemical piece of prose and valued as a historical source on 16th century Ireland, the View is seen today as genocidal in intent. Spenser did express some praise for the Gaelic poetic tradition, but also used much tendentious and bogus analysis to demonstrate that the Irish were descended from barbarian Scythian stock.
Spenser was driven from his home by Irish rebels during the Nine Years War in 1598. His castle at Kilcolman, near Doneraile in North Cork was burned, and it is thought one of his infant children died in the blaze - though local legend has it that his wife also died. He possessed a second holding to the south, at Rennie, on a rock overlooking the river Blackwater in North Cork. The ruins of it are still visible today. A short distance away grew a tree, locally known as "Spenser's Oak" until it was destroyed in a lightning strike in the 1960s. Local legend has it that he penned some or all of "the Faerie Queene" under this tree. Queen Victoria is said to have visited the tree while staying in nearby Convamore House during her state visit to Ireland before she died. In the following year Spenser traveled to London, where he died in distressed circumstances, aged forty-six. It was arranged for his coffin to be carried by other poets, upon which they threw many pens and pieces of poetry into his grave with many tears.
Spenser was admired by William Wordsworth, John Keats, Lord Byron and Alfred Lord Tennyson, among others. The language of his poetry is purposely archaic, reminiscent of earlier works such as The Canterbury Tales of Geoffrey Chaucer, whom Spenser greatly admired.
Spenser's Epithalamion is the most admired of its type in the English language. It was written for his wedding to his young bride, Elizabeth Boyle. The poem is comprised of 365 long lines, corresponding to the days of the year; 68 short lines, representing the sum of the 52 weeks, 12 months, and 4 seasons of the annual cycle; and 24 stanzas, corresponding to the diurnal and sidereal hours.
Spenser used a distinctive verse form, called the Spenserian stanza, in several works, including The Faerie Queene. The stanza's main meter is iambic pentameter. The rhyme scheme is ababbcbcc. The final line is a rhyming hexameter line which has 6 feet or stresses. Such a line is known as an Alexandrine.
The Spenserian Sonnet is based on a fusion of elements of both the Petrarchan sonnet and the Shakespearean sonnet. In one sense, it is similar to the Shakespearan sonnet in the sense that it is set up based more on the 3 quatrain and a couplet system set up by Shakespeare; however it is more like the Petrarchan tradition in the fact that the conclusion follows from the argument or issue set up in the earlier quatrains. There is also a great use of the parody of the blazon and the idealization or praise of the mistress, a literary device used by many poets. It is a way to look at a woman through the appraisal of her features in comparison to other things. In this description, the mistress's body is described part by part, i.e., much more of a scientific way of seeing one. As William Johnson states in his article "Gender Fashioning and Dynamics of Mutuality in Spenser's Amoretti," the poet-love in the scenes of the Spenser's sonnets in Amoretti, is able to see his lover in an objectified manner by moving her to another, or more clearly, an item. The purpose of Spenser doing this is to bring the woman from the "transcendental ideal" to a woman in everyday life. "Through his use of metonymy and metaphor, by describing the lady not as a whole being but as bodily parts, by alluding to centuries of topoi which remove her in time as well as space, the poet transforms the woman into a text, the living 'other' into an inanimate object" (503). The opposite of this also occurs in The Faerie Queen. The counter-blazon, or the opposition of appraisal, is used to describe Duessa. She is not objectified, but instead all of her flaws are highlighted.

Last week, we all watched in collective awe as a $1.8 million Bugatti Veyron drove into a pond. While the driver claimed that he was attacked by a pelican, close examination of the video would appear to reveal... no pelican whatsoever. Instead, there's just a supercar inexplicably jumping into a marsh. Today, we've got another head scratcher for you – Luca Montezemolo beaching a Ferrari California.
Between special one-offs like the disaster-relief F430 and record-breaking classics like the 1957 250 Testa Rossa, if you've had your eye on acquiring an especially special Ferrari at auctio, there has been no shortage of opportunities. And here's another to add to the docket: Ferrari president Luca di Montezemolo's own 599 GTB Fiorano.
Ferrari's participation in Formula One is so firmly entrenched in the identities of both the world championship and the Italian automaker that its abandonment of the series is almost unthinkable. But thinking about just that, according to some commentators, is what Ferrari chief Luca di Montezemolo wants people to start doing, as a spate of heated correspondence flies back and forth between Maranello and Paris, seat of motorsport's governing body, the FIA.

Voltage regulator problems?

Voltage Regulator_Furukawa/Mosfet_Dual Connector Install
Here is my FH020AA Mosfet Voltage Regulator Install with the Furukawa waterproof Connectors... but done with the OEM Connectors in Place.
This way if the Regulator ever goes out (they don't make appointments), I can use this Universal Mosfet Regulator or use the OEM type.
My Original Regulater w/18k miles is Fine and will keep as a spare.
Bought this kit from here:
I did buy the following from NAPA:
1- #785604 - 12 GA Wire/Yellow - for Stator - 3 @ 13"
2-#785602 - 12 GA Wire/Red - for R/W wires to Starter Relay Connector - 2 @ 13"
3- #785505 - 14 GA Wire/Green - Ground - 2 @ 11"
4- #784474 - 10-12 GA Male Spade Connectors - for Stator/Relay Connections - 5 and cut off their plastic shoulders
5- #784437 - 18-20 GA Ring Terminal - For Ground
Tools - Soldering Iron, Cut/Crimp Tool, Dialectric Grease
Did not use included 30 AMP Breaker (Lower Left Corner) or 10 GA Red/Black Wire (36") since I did not wire directly to Battery Terminals.
OEM Voltage Regulator and Connectors.
New Shindengen Voltage Regulator All Wired up and Ready to Install.
Used the Spaded End of Regulator Wires to OEM Stator Connector & Wire Tied to keep in place with DiElectric Grease ib both sides of Terminal to waterproof.
Used the Spaded End of Regulator Wires to OEM Red/White Starter Relay Connector & with DiElectric Grease ib both sides of Terminal to waterproof.
Ring Terminal in place for the Ground Wire from Voltage Regulator.
Only problem was with the OEM Skidplate, it's ridge at the Bottom hit against the Yellow Stator wires from the bottom of the Regulator. So had to not use the current screw holes and wired it in place to get the higher clearance to close the skidplate.
It started up with Voltages at Idle at 14.3 - 14.4 Volts and it did NOT get Hot like the OEM regulator would.

In the not-too-distant future, the mathematical model could help design therapies in which the molecular and cellular characteristics of a patient's tumor are manipulated, Cristini said. This could decrease the spread of the tumor and help surgeons remove growths more effectively. This manipulation could also increase the susceptibility of tumors to chemotherapy, he added. The model could augment efforts to predict drug response, which currently include removing a tiny sample of cancer tissue and testing the response of its cells to cancer drugs in a laboratory situation before the patient starts treatment. By basing the model input parameters on specific patient data, the treatment outcomes could be predicted better.

After downloading the application to your iphone, start iTunes and select Instinctiv Shuffle, then skip the songs you don't want to hear at that time and Instinctiv Shuffle learns what you want to hear next.
For iphone users (which I am not) this could be a really great idea. I use the streaming media site Pandora.com regularly because of this technology--having it portable and from your own music library could be pretty amazing.

Would Grok Chow the Cheese Plate?
Is cheese healthy? I get asked this question a lot, and I do want to preface it by stating that if there were a definitive answer, we'd probably know it by now. I'm not a big dairy advocate, especially not in light of the way so much of it is processed and manipulated to death, but I don't completely avoid cheese, either. My personal view of cheese is that it's on the "okay" list. I eat it occasionally, but it's not a major source of my calories. But let's consider the issue further. This post is by no means the last word on cheese, but I hope these thoughts will be helpful to you if you're debating whether or not to keep cheese in your diet. (And I welcome your thoughts as always. Even you vegans.)

Edinburgh Pugilist & Hurricane Hit Soho Pre-Tours
Editorial Staff • West End • 14 Jan 2004
Hurricane, written and performed by Dormer, traces the highs and lows of the Northern Irish snooker legend (See News, 24 Oct 2003). The "people's champion", Higgins left school at 15, won the Northern Ireland and All Ireland Snooker Championships at 17, turned professional at 20 and, in 1972, aged just 23, became the youngest person ever to win the world championship.
Higgins himself has endorsed Hurricane, originally produced in Belfast, saying that it accurately conveys his tortured life. Dormer won the Stage award for Best Actor at last year's festival for his portrayal. The production is directed by Rachel O'Riordan and designed by Garry McCann, with lighting by John Riddell. It's presented by Martin Witts and Edward Snape.
Following its Soho engagement, Hurricane will continue to Nottingham, Croydon, Salford, Cardiff, Warwick, Norwich and Belfast, where it concludes on 12 March 2004.
Addressing the post-September 11th consequences, Pugilist Specialist (pictured) presents the drama of the American military on the hunt for evil in foreign lands (See News, 16 Sep 2003).
Winner of the coveted First of the Fringe Firsts at the 2003 festival, Pugilist Specialist follows The Riot Group's previous award-winning successes at the Edinburgh Fringe festival with Wreck the Airline Barrier and Victory at the Dirt Palace, a King Lear transplanted to the cut-throat world of broadcast journalism, which transferred at the start of 2003 to London's Riverside Studios.
Founded in 1997, The Riot Group was originally conceived as a site-specific protest against the theatre department of New York's Sarah Lawrence College. All of the group's shows are written by 24-year-old Adriano Shaplin, who also directs and performs in them.
Following its London season, Pugilist Specialist will visit Belfast, Dublin, Glasgow, Oxford, Canterbury, Cambridge, Southampton, Nottingham, Cardiff, Liverpool, Plymouth, Leeds, Bradford, Selby, Manchester, Brighton, Birmingham, Swindon, Crawley, Tunbridge and Newbury, where the tour finishes on 29 May 2004. The production, presented by Louise Chantal, will then receive its New York premiere in September.
