Compelling Testimony, Political Theater at Radicalization Hearing
IPT News
March 10, 2011
When members of Minneapolis' Somali community realized their sons had disappeared and likely gone back to Africa to join a jihadist group, mosque leaders told them to keep quiet.
If you go to the FBI, you could end up in Guantanamo Bay with alleged terrorists, some were told. If authorities learn about it, mosques in America might be shut down in response. You, the worried relatives were told, will pay for that in the afterlife by being damned with "eternal fire and hell."
Abdirizak Bihi's nephew was among those missing. Burhan Hassan later would be killed in Somalia after joining the al-Shabaab terrorist group.
How this promising A-student grew so radical that he gave up the American dream was supposed to be the focus of a hearing Thursday before the House Homeland Security Committee. The spike in homegrown Islamist terrorism cases in recent years – driven by a targeted recruitment effort of young Muslim Americans by al-Qaida, is a concern for American law enforcement and intelligence officials.
The hearing's focus solely on Islamic radicalization generated criticism in the weeks leading up to it and throughout the more-than-four-hour proceeding.
Committee Democrats repeatedly devoted significant portions of their time to attacking the hearing's focus on Islamic radicalization. U.S. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas wondered whether the hearing violated the First Amendment's protection of religious freedom. California Rep. Jackie Speier denigrated the panelists' experiences, calling them anecdotes that offered little from which to learn.
For all the vitriol, none of the witnesses made any sweeping generalizations about the faith of Islam or about Muslim people. Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca, who again defended the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) despite documented ties to a Hamas-support network, still commended the hearing's topic and praised fellow panelists as "incredibly important" witnesses.
Joining Bihi and Baca were Melvin Bledsoe, father of a man who claims to be an al-Qaida jihadist, and Zuhdi Jasser, founder of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy.
Bledsoe, like Bihi, described his own family tragedy. His son Carlos grew up happy and well-adjusted, until he was "manipulated and lied to" after converting to Islam by local Muslim leaders who helped him go to Yemen and study with radicals. In June 2009, Carlos Bledsoe, now called Abdulhakeem Mujahid Muhammad, opened fire at a Little Rock, Ark., Army recruiting office, killing one soldier and injuring a second.
His father testified that other "hunters" for al-Qaida and other terrorist groups are trying to recruit more Muslims to join their jihad. He repeatedly stressed that he has other Muslim relatives, whom he described as "modern, peaceful, law abiding people."
He wondered why a conversation about radicalization among Muslims like his own son generated so much angst. "It seems to me that the American people are sitting around and doing nothing about Islamic extremism, as if Carlos's story and the other stories told at these hearings aren't true. There is a big elephant in the room, but our society continues not to see it."
The nation's first Muslim-American congressman, U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., was the most emotional, appearing to fight back tears as he described false rumors about Mohammed Salman Hamdani, a Muslim paramedic who died on 9/11.
A hearing on radicalism in general would have been acceptable, Ellison said. "When you assign their violent actions to the entire community," he said, "you assign collective blame to the entire group."
Other committee members were outwardly hostile to Chairman Peter King, R-N.Y., and to some of the witnesses. Lee of Texas said the hearing placed the Constitution "in pain" by demonizing an entire community. Oddly, she found the presence of two Muslim witnesses testifying about obstruction from organized Islamic groups – Jasser and Bihi – to be proof that Muslims indeed were cooperating with authorities.
"They are here doing what this hearing suggests they do not do," she said. "I question where are the uncooperative Muslims?"
In this exchange, U.S. Rep. Loretta Sanchez, D-Cal., challenged Jasser's criticism of messages discouraging people to talk to the FBI without counsel.
Speier said she saw little value in the testimony because she did not consider witnesses like Jasser, Bihi and Bledsoe to be experts. "Do you have the expertise" to testify, she asked Jasser.
"That's interesting," he replied. "The theocrats ask me that all the time."
In his testimony, Jasser called for a "counter-jihad" on the Internet and in the community to stress principles of liberty against what he sees as the collectivization and victimization emphasized by Islamists.
"I appreciate the anecdotes," Speier said, "but I don't think they are very enlightening." In the following clip, Bledsoe and Bihi are given a chance to respond.
As the hearing was broadcast, Dawud Walid, head of the CAIR Michigan office, was posting comments on his Twitter feed equally dismissive of the witnesses:
- "Bihi has basically a one person organization and is not seen as a leader by Somali-Americans."
- "Somehow, I don't think Mr. Bledsoe wrote this and was approached."
- "No such thing as "counter-jihad" Jasser. Jihad means Struggle. Uneducated about Islam."
CAIR attracted its own attention during the testimony. King displayed a poster published on the group's San Francisco chapter website, first reported by the Investigative Project on Terrorism, which urged Muslims to "Build a Wall of Resistance. Don't Talk to the FBI."
While CAIR officials later removed the poster and claimed it did not reflect the organization's policies, Bihi singled out CAIR for siding with local religious leaders in discrediting the relatives of the missing Somali men, calling them liars and tools out to destroy the mosque. CAIR discouraged people from talking with the FBI, he said, calling it "a slap in the face for the Somali American Muslim mothers who were knocking on doors day and night with pictures of their missing children and asking for the community to talk to law enforcement about what they know of the missing kids."
CAIR did nothing to help the families, he said. "We are isolated by Islamic organizations."
In his opening statement, King called CAIR "a discredited organization that should be rejected." U.S. Rep. Frank Wolf, R-Va., testified about the FBI's decision to cut off access to CAIR because of its documented ties to a Hamas-support network. Despite that, the group is "routinely and mistakenly elevated in the press as voice of mainstream Muslims" enjoying access to high level government officials.
Baca, who gave CAIR a full-throated and defiant endorsement during a hearing last year, seemed more subdued Thursday. He has "never had briefing from FBI what their position is," he said. His own experiences in California have been positive, but he acknowledged he could not attest to what might happen elsewhere.
At times, members were able to discuss the growing volume of homegrown Islamists terrorists. U.S. Rep. Mike McCaul, R-Texas, mentioned the repeated promotions for Army psychiatrist Nidal Malik Hasan despite displaying an obvious pattern of radicalization. It reached a crescendo in November 2009, when Hasan opened fire at a processing center at Fort Hood, killing 13 people and wounding 32 others. Hasan had been in contact with American-born cleric Anwar al-Awlaki, considered the most influential voice in radicalizing suspects in a string of terrorist plots.
"To ignore this in name of political correctness is a serious threat," McCaul said. "I am concerned there are organizations telling the community not to cooperate with the FBI."
As previous hearings have shown, the sophistication of al-Qaida's appeal to American Muslims is increasing. Whether the issue is a comfortable one or not, susceptible young Muslims will continue to be targeted with messages urging them to strike out against their homeland.
Bledsoe warned the committee that his son's experience should be a cautionary tale for policymakers. "One thing is for sure," he said, "it will happen again."

Churches must also be investigated
Submitted by inkorrekt, Mar 11, 2011 13:39
We have 30million illegal immigrants who have virutally invaded our country and we are spending $400 billion/ year only to sustain public services to the Illegals. AIDING AND ABETTING illegals is a crime. The Catholic church, Assembly of God, PCA(USA) ELCA, UMC and other non profit organizations getting grants from the US Taxpayer such as LA RAZA, One America are violating our laws. Should they also not be investigated for AIDING and ABETTING the Illegals? They are free to provide humanitarian services as people. As far as the law is concerned, they cannot AID and ABET the illegals. Then, they must be investigated and prosecuted. The best way to go will be to REVOKE their TAX Exempt STATUS. Then they will understand the difference between compassion and the LAW.
Great summary; weak initial comment
Mar 10, 2011 23:58
Maybe the difficulty getting people to understand the specific problem we have with the radicalization of young Muslims is people like the first commenter write (kind of) and open their mouths.
Yes, the Democrats on this committe were childish. But they were trying to divert the point of the hearing and keep the spin going that it is anti-Islam. It's a tactic! They were going to do this regardless of the actual content of the witnesses. Sure, it made them look like fools. As though they weren't actually listening to the stories of the two relatives of radicalized Muslims. And, uh, where were the hearings on skinheads, Klan and neo- nazis when MY Democratic party were in power? Obviously, condemning the focus of this hearing for excluding other political fanatic organizations was a tactic, not a serious concern.
I'd like to forward this article, which summarized the hearings well, to my more liberal friends but I'm afraid comments like the one above will just prevent intelligent folks from taking this seriously.
"The Extent of Radicalization" Among American Muslims
Mar 10, 2011 18:22
"The Extent of Radicalization" Among American Muslims
The House of Representative's Homeland Security Committeen hearings on the above subject, will be shown in entirety tonight on CSPAN - beginning 7pm PST/10pm EST.
This is very important for every American to watch these proceedings. Dr. Zuhdy Jasser is clear & brilliant! Two heart-broken (and very articulate) family members of radicalized American boys, (1 African-American, and 1 Somali) testified. They were stopped by the clock by Rep. King a few times, but people like Ellison got to go on and on...
And our very own Sheriff Baca was once again brought in to testify by Democrats. He does well when he does not have to take sides. He shore knows how to wiggle out of answering a direct question. He is slick and takes people in with his smooth diplomacy. People will not see the truth about him, just as we didn't at first. He is adamantly pro-Muslim, and attends fund raisers for CAIR!!!
Most Democrats - both on the committee & visiting congresspersons - were ridiculous! They wasted precious time...speaking against the committee, wanting equal time for white supremacist groups, and other subjects...did you know that the "KKK is Christian"?
Jackson Lee (D-Tx) was her usual belligerent out-of-control, look-at-me-narcissistic self. She had the audacity to wave a small folded up Constitution.
Oh to be in theater! Also Laura Sanchez from SoCal was horrid, making inane remarks, with an awful grating voice, and gesturing with awkward (weird) hand movements. Only Lundgren (R) of California made any sense and was a good speaker. The others from California were (are) truly embarrassing.
I wrote to Chairman Peter King, and suggested the committee talk about THE DEATH THREATS HE GOT these past 2 weeks, AND about the serious threats DR. JASSER GETS continuously. America needs to know about this! The International Islamo-fascist movement surely knows all about this aspect of what is going on today. Only criminals & thugs try to frighten people into silence.

In one of the first cases of its kind, federal prosecutors are seeking the extradition of a foreign national suspected of producing and distributing hundreds of lewd pictures of young girls across the Internet. An outcry arose against him in his home country of Paraguay.
Milton Xiscatti-Michel is charged in U.S. District Court in Baltimore with 31 counts of shipping child pornography to the United States by computer. He is accused of having taken the pictures of children ages 6 to 11 after he told their parents he was a scout for a worldwide modeling company.

Sometime in February, the Center hit the 100,000 mark--the number of times the Center's videos have been viewed by individuals visiting the center's website, YouTube, or iTunes U pages.
"It's very rewarding to know that others in the field are finding our videos useful enough to want to share," said Julia DeLapp, CECE Program Coordinator. "Every week I hear from more people who want to be notified when new videos are released," including teachers from as far away as Saudi Arabia. Education agencies in other states and Canadian provinces have requested permission to link to videos.
Teachers watch the videos to get ideas to incorporate in their own classrooms. In addition, faculty and trainers across the country use them in their classes, including Eastern's Jeffrey Trawick-Smith. "They are so much more engaging and visual than a lecture could ever be and are just the right length to get a good discussion going or to introduce a new topic," said Trawick-Smith. "They are artistic, but never glitzy or cute, and treat the children and teachers who appear in them with such respect."
The Center has developed more than 30 videos and audio podcasts over the past 5 years. Videos feature footage from preschool and toddler classrooms in Eastern's Child and Family Development Resource Center, as well as expert interviews from teachers and faculty.
"We are so fortunate to have such a high-quality early childhood center here on campus that exemplifies everything we would want to show in a video, as well as the expertise of so many faculty," said DeLapp. "And we benefit tremendously from our relationships with the Communication and Media Services departments."
Communication professor Denise Matthews serves as the Center's production consultant, and the Center utilizes a number of Communication students each year to help produce videos. "Our students have the opportunity to do professional-level production work," said Ken Measimer, the Center's production specialist. "They leave Eastern with a very strong portfolio."
The Center started tracking video hits in January of 2012, so the 100,000 number does not include views prior to 2012.
Videos are available free of charge at www.easternct.edu/cece/resources.html, www.youtube.com/EarlyChildhoodVideos, or at iTunes U.

Top message: NEC by bigedaddy

Re: NEC 535M
Yes, there are many features of this phone that are very nice but the SIM problem can be circumvented. It is caused by insufficient pressure being placed on the SIM by the cover. If the phone is shaken the contacts break connection betweem the SIM and the phone. Take a 1 inch square piece of paper and put it between the cover and the SIM. So for anybody with this problem, you can at least fix this problem until you can afford a new phone. There are other problems. The Sync software for the phone is junk. The onboard scheduler is junk too.

Anarchy Becomes Archaeology?
Tuesday, 29th Nov 2011
An academic at The University of York has caused a stir in the world of archaeology, by suggesting that graffiti created by the Sex Pistols in the late 70s should be preserved as a heritage site. Dr John Schofield from the Department of Archaeology has suggested that the graffiti should be regarded in the same way as we appreciate ancient cave murals; and that the discovery of the scribbles could be just as significant as the unearthing of early Beatles material, as it captures "a direct and powerful representation of a radical and dramatic movement of rebellion."
The majority of the graffiti appears to come from John Lydon - better known as Johnny Rotten - and features the band as well as other recognisable figures such as their late manager Malcolm Mclaren. Researchers have flocked to the graffiti; discovered behind cabinets in an office building on Denmark St, to determine whether it should be preserved with a blue plaque, as is traditional for sites of national heritage. Whilst a conclusion is yet to be made, many agreed that, whilst the graffiti could be considered crude and offensive in parts, it should remain as a site of historical and cultural importance.

Flying VFR Again
Its like not having water and electricity after a storm has passed. We've had a terrible storm hit us and we will be recovering for awhile, (and from what I hear on tv there may be other storms over the horizon) but the "electricity is back on" and I don't take it for granted - but even though there were very good reasons that we couldn't fly - it's amazing how much I missed the opportunity to just go flying - and how empty the skies were - I really do appreciate hearing a light airplane fly overhead now and then. Its a beautiful morning, alot like the tuesday a couple of weeks ago - I think that I'll go to the airport and go flying VFR a little, no particular place, just flying, and enjoy just hearing the other airplane noises at the airport.
I would have to add "THANKS" to so many people and organizations that I couldn't count them, and many of them continuing to work through the weekend, day and night, and I'm sure they know anyway - but I still have to say Thank You Very Much.

Re: Flying VFR Again
Im in total aggreance with you,The Wife is working on her Private...she was supposed to meet her instructor at OLV this am and do ground work,Much to her amazement,she was informed as she walked in the door,to do the pre-flight,and prepare to go zoomin.Myself as a Private Pilot am not permitted to fly VFR since were so close to MEM,but evidently as long as training is the situation,AND a CFI is aboard,its approved.Looks like the power is coming back on,at least in stages!
Needledd to say,our FBO is breathing a sigh of relief,as the phones were ringing off the hook this morning.....Tailwinds to all.
Re: Flying VFR Again
My wife and I need to do some approaches to stay current. We are smack dab in the middle of extended Class B. The other day they were saying no practice approaches but now are they considered "training" even though the "instructor" is the safety pilot?
Re: Flying VFR Again
Id suggest youy contact youre FSDO,Yesterday at OLV while the wife,and instructor were doing pattern work,there were quite a few instructors scrambling to get their students in and up.The way I understand it,I(as a private Pilot)cannot fly since Im only VFR certified,and under the Memphis Veil at olv.AND Im also under the impression that the"Instructor" must be a CFI.
Honsetly,the notams,and directives have been somewhat confusing to me aside from the part that says SPECIFICALLY that in my situation Im still grounded.
Re: Flying VFR Again
I guess the way I understood it is that IFR could still file and fly - even if it was to get outside class B whether for actual IFR or to remain current - Whereas There was no VFR at all - Things are being updated and changing and I Hope for more normal flight situations - I'm just glad to get back into the air for now.
Re: Flying VFR Again
I apologize for not advising before - I assumed many pilots maybe aware of the aopa page - when at the airport and discussing things with fellow pilots I found that some pilots were using the aopa newsletter - If you go to the aopa.org, you will get redirected to a home page they update almost hourly - they have a wealth of info and explainations available - If you are allready aware of this then please disregard, however if you haven't visited yet, please give it a try - Very imformative for what we have to work with.
Re: Flying VFR Again
Well, we flew tonight! IFR, stayed in class B under very tight radar control and they let us go to a VOR and back, cancelling on the ground. Lots of different voices at Approach, wonder if they are supplementing with military controllers now? Lots of uncertainty about notams too, controller read one to a pilot trying to get into the B. Lot of work for .6 hours, this could get real old.
Re: Flying VFR Again
Talked with the briefer today and he said NO PRACTICE APPROACHES in Class B, unless "training" and that means with a certificated instructor, not just a safety pilot. I can do practice approaches outside of the B after filing IFR and going to the outside-of-B airport under positive control. Going to try to do a X-C this weekend, need a couple more hours under the hood to stay current.

Whale meat was shipped to Japanese officials as gifts
On December 22, 2010 - the Fisheries Agency of Japan (FAJ) acknowledged and publicly apologized for embezzlement within the whaling industry. An official from the powerful agency gave a 90 degree bow of apology on national television and explained that five officers were being punished for accepting around 272,000 Yen (approximately $3,000 USD) worth of whale meat 'gifts.' This is hard evidence that the whale meat embezzlement scandal exposed by Toru and I back in 2008, and supported in court with witness statements, did in fact exist, and that the corruption stretched from the factory ship floor right up into the government agencies overseeing the whaling programme. Straight from the horse's mouth, and on national television no less.
The bow in the video may look like posturing, but I can assure you that this was very unusual for Japan – particularly considering this was about whaling! An FAJ official apologizing for something whaling-related would have been unthinkable only a few months ago, yet here we are. The FAJ confirmed that the five officials who received whale meat faced disciplinary action. Toru and I intercepted a box of embezzled whale meat in 2008, and used it to expose the embezzlement scandal the FAJ has now admitted to. We were tried on allegations of 'theft' and 'trespass' and handed a one year sentence, suspended for three, in 2010. We don't know what exact punishment the officials have been handed, but we know that they have not been put on trial or given jail time. The meat they admitted accepting was worth roughly six times what Toru and I were accused of taking.
Since the apology in December, more information has come to light, and the agency has admitted that another two key officials (managers) have also been officially warned. One of these senior managers was Jun Yamashita, the number two civil servant at the FAJ and a prominent negotiator at the International Whaling Commission (IWC) meetings. Yamashita has since left the agency altogether.
This is a major development and a wholly positive one for an end to Japanese whaling. Yamashita was involved in the various whaling negotiations, including a meeting of pro-whaling factions in Shimonoseki last November. The Tokyo Two trial, the FAJ apologies and demotions, and a surge in media coverage questioning the corrupt whaling program have all impacted Japanese public opinion (especially considering the utter lack of interest in eating whale meat). People are beginning to see that whaling serves no purpose and does not benefit Japan. For my father's generation, whale meat was everywhere: in schools, supermarkets, and izakayas (Japanese style pubs). These days, signs of the whaling industry are hard to find and the stockpile of frozen meat is at an all-time high, despite reduced catches and serious - but failed - marketing attempts to get rid of the stockpile.
Last week, Kazuo Yamamura, the CEO of whaling fleet operator Kyodo Senpaku and head of the Japan Whaling Association (JWA), also admitted that whale meat sales dropped 30% in the first half of the 2010 fiscal year, forcing the JWA - the largest promoter of whale meat in Japan - to downscale its activities. The situation is clear: the industry is slipping faster and faster down the spiral. Our campaign to hit whale meat sales in Japan is surely working.
The fleet is ailing, each year they voluntarily catch less whales that they cannot sell or afford to keep storing. The stockpiled meat and the lack of revenue means the ships cannot be maintained or replaced without even more substantial injections of public money. The government should not waste any more money on this program given that these recent admissions are clearly just the tip of the iceberg.
With all of these different threads of change coming together, I am confident that what we are seeing is the last chapter of Japan's whaling program.
If our appeal is successful and Toru's and my conviction is overturned by the High Court on May 24, then we will undoubtedly be even closer to closing the book.
Thank you for your continuing support!
Junichi Sato, is the Executive and Program Director for Greenpeace in Japan.

I think our president should have put some sanctions on Japan just like they did to Cuba. I just don't ever see that happening. Killing whales and dolphin's for money is just plain wrong and should be stopped at all cost. That means taking whatever measures that our goverment has to take to stop them. No one can't convince me that when whales get harponed that they don't feel pain or cry or when dolphin's get bashed in the head they don't feel they pain. I know better. How would the japanese feel if someone did the same thing to them. Maybe then they could understand how the whales and dolphin's feel. I am not pointing the finger at only Japan because there are two other countries that think it is ok to kill whales also and they need to stop also befor there are no more whales in the ocean's. What will happen to the ocean's of the world when all the whales and dolphins are gone.They need to think of that.

On a positive note, this article gives hope that the whale trade will be forced out of business sooner than later. Sadly, the change will not come about because of concern for such beautiful and majestic creatures, or feeling for choosing a moral and ethical path, but rather because of "the bottom line". Instead, it's all about MONEY, and supply and demand. In the meantime, it sickens me to think of all of those helpless whales being senselessly murdered and then to add insult to injury, the meat sits and rots in a warehouse. This is a true tragedy and waste. Shame on Japan for not policing themselves and taking action to eradicate such irresponsible behavior once and for all.

Thank you, Junichi Sato, and everyone at Greenpeace. From the safety of my living room I've watched you put your lives in jeapordy for the whales. We can never thank you enough. You are warriors fighting for the planet. That Japan has become open to change on this topic is cause for celebration! I pray they will have a similar change of heart on the critically endangered bluefin tuna.
Arigatou gozaimasu to everyone who has helped to turn the tide.

Replying to: VZW and AT&T still hoarding AWS spectrum? by Azeron
Re: VZW and AT&T still hoarding AWS spectrum?
Azeron said:
Thank Google that these *Bleepards* are not able to sit on the 700mzH spectrum they purchased as they appear to be with the AWS. It is almost as though they purchased the AWS spectrum simply to keep a start up from building out a competitor in the wireless arena.
For the AWS spectrum, VZW is only sitting on the F Blocks for the Northeast, south, Mississippi Valley, & Great Lakes Regions, and A & B blocks for Louisiana (where there's no overlap in the F block) & Hawaii. VZW is waiting for LTE before they use AWS. 34 - 46mhz of 700 in major markets & 22mhz everywhere else in the USA (minus Alaska & Puerto Rico, where they didn't bid on 700) won't be enough. For AWS, all they have is 20mhz.
AT&T primarily went after major markets, while avoiding most rural markets. They'll be sitting on their spectrum more than VZW will. They don't plan to build out LTE as early as VZW will.
I do agree though that they bought spectrum in the largest markets to keep out competition. The government wasn't happy that the telecoms (AT&T & VZW) bought most of the 700 spectrum. As for AWS, T-Mobile bought the bulk of the AWS spectrum (every regional license they could get their hands on, along with A & B blocks for additional capacity). So T-Mobile will likely sit on some of that spectrum as they don't serve many rural markets. Also, unless they plan to launch 3G only markets, I don't see them entering markets they don't hold any PCS spectrum.

The Fresno County Search and Rescue Team wants to give you a challenge. So they are putting on the 1st SAR Wild Run Trail Half Marathon. This "Half" will have you running the previous year's bike trail along the southeast side of Shaver Lake while adding more miles in the forest with great views of the lake. But save your energy as you will finish scrambling up the 5K Wild Run. They say with the longer course the chances are better of seeing BIG FOOT!5K Wild RUN
The 5K WILD RUN will start on Fishing Club Rd heading north towards the lake. It will make a couple of turns in a "Z" formation and continue on the dirt road wrapping around the point at the lake and continuing until the road ends. You're thinking "Nice Trail Run"... get ready for the challenge as the course goes off road through the forest, encountering "obstacles", navigating a couple of steep hillside scrambles, and connecting to another trail which will lead you south to the finish line where the course started. Are you ready for a Wild Run?
10K TRAIL RUN is a challenging adventure run through the beautiful Sierra scenery with a nice dose of elevation drops and climbs. It will start on the "perimeter" trail and head in a south westerly direction crossing Swanson Meadow, through the forest at Camp Chawanakee. From there you will proceed to Nevins Peninsula with views of Dorabelle Cove where you will make a large loop and continue on secondary trails back to Swanson Meadow; but not before running up a nice sweeping climb to Chawanakee Rd. and then on to the "perimeter" trail to the finish. You will enjoy the beauty of this 10K Trail Run... and of course like the 5K Wild Run you will be chip timed. The 10K is the Classic Challenge Series competition level event.
The 2 MILE FAMILY HIKE will go out the same
direction as the 10K, but will instead follow a nice wide path north. The participants will walk through wooded areas making wide switchbacks towards the lake. Elevation change will be about 300-350' downhill over the course of a mile. You will arrive at the lakes edge and when you are ready to return, will follow the same path back up to the course starting point. (Not timed)
Each of the courses will begin and finish in the same area, approximately a few hundred yards off Dinky Creek Rd, on Fishing Club Rd.
Dinkey Creek Rd and Hwy 168 are approximately 55 minutes from Fresno. Fishing Club Rd is approximately 3.1 miles up Dinkey Creek Rd. There is parking near the start but we strongly encourage car pooling.
For questions and sponsorship opportunites email email@example.com

Brandon Woodruff has been dropping hints left and right about his future as a baseball player.
The Mississippi State junior right hander tweeted out, "Thankful for the opportunity to chase my dreams as I transition from a Bulldog to a @Brewers! Grateful for all the support during this time!"
Woodruff was drafted in the 11th round, 326th overall, by the Milwaukee Brewers last Saturday as a part of the First-Year Player Draft.
A team spokesperson said Woodruff will not play summer ball in Cape Cod. He was scheduled to be on the Hyannis Harbor Hawks, but he will more than likely begin his professional baseball career this summer.Â
No release has been sent out by the Brewers on Woodruff signing, but it seems to just be a matter of time.Â

Matchbox Twenty Releases New Single: See Rob Thomas Then and Now (PHOTOS)
Rob Thomas and the Matchbox Twenty boys are back in action.
After a couple hiatuses, one departure (rhythm guitarist Adam Gaynor), and one addition (drummer Ryan MacMillan), Matchbox Twenty has released a lyric video for their first single in five years: "She's So Mean," a bubbly, upbeat song from their upcoming album, North, set to drop September 4. The lyrics are far from deep, but that's never stopped us from playing something over and over (and over).
Now 40, Rob Thomas has definitely aged, but his group's music apparently hasn't.
Watch and then tell us what you think of the song. Does it hold a candle to their hits on Yourself or Someone Like You (1996), Mad Season (2000), and More Than You Think You Are (2002)?

The Women's Vote: Sluts for Obama, Church Ladies for Romney
By Mona Gable on October 24, 2012
BlogHer Original Post
This just in, ladies: hormones may influence your vote on November 6. If you're a fun-loving carefree single gal, and you happen to be ovulating that time of the month, then you're destined to vote for Obama. On the other hand, if you're married or involved in a "committed" relationship, then Romney will be the man of your dreams.
In other words, sluts for Obama and church ladies for Romney.
I just have one question: does this hold true for lesbians, grandmothers, menopausal women, and divorcees?
Alas, shortly after this loopy story took off, CNN yanked it explaining that it failed to meet their editorial standards.
Fortunately, I'd already saved some fun facts from the published version:
The researchers found that during the fertile time of the month, when levels of the hormone estrogen are high, single women appeared more likely to vote for Obama and committed women appeared more likely to vote for Romney, by a margin of at least 20%, Durante said. This seems to be the driver behind the researchers' overall observation that single women were inclined toward Obama and committed women leaned toward Romney.
Here's how Durante explains this: When women are ovulating, they "feel sexier," and therefore lean more toward liberal attitudes on abortion and marriage equality. Married women have the same hormones firing, but tend to take the opposite viewpoint on these issues, she says.
And you thought the all-important women's vote the candidates are wooing us for was all about the pay gap, didn't you? Or what politicians used to call in the bad old days "kitchen table issues" but have since helpfully clarified as "pocketbook issues." (Speaking of dating yourself, since when has any woman you know carried a "pocketbook?")
All I can say is thank God I don't have a period anymore. I would hate to think I might come unhinged in the voting booth at the last second and punch the wrong hole just because I have cramps. But I'd better text my 20- year-old daughter because these are the kinds of facts they don't teach you in college.
This vital information comes courtesy of a study at the University of Texas, soon to be published in the journal Psychological Science. I am not going to get into it here, except to say that several political scientists who read the study debunked it. What does interest me about the study is this: it comes just in time for the renewed hysteria over the women's vote and, not to mix metaphors here, the horse-race aspect of the election.
In case you missed it the women's vote is tightening! Last week Gallup released a stunning poll suggesting that Obama's considerable lead with women had plummeted to 0 among likely swing-state voters. The media, naturally, went nuts over this breathtaking development:
Women Voters Flocking to Romney! screamed the Oct. 15 headline on Washington Times story.
Women Push Romney into the Lead! declared the Oct. 15 headline on USATodaywho conducted the poll with Gallup.
It seems this unprecedented political swing was all due to Moderate Mitt's stirring debate performance on Oct. 8, when Obama strangely decided to take a long nap and got pummeled. This suggests one of three things: either female voters are terribly easy to manipulate, or the data was off, or a little of both.
A word here: This was before GOP Misogynist of the Day, Indiana Senate candidate Richard Mourdock enlightened us with his rape is "God's intention" remark. Romney not only supports Mourdock but starred in a political ad for him, which he has yet to take down despite the enormous outcry from various Republicans, including John McCain. So it's anyone's guess if women leaning toward Romney will change their mind.
But about the poll. I don't mean to sound like one of those conspiracy nuts who thinks the polls are skewed, or the polls are worthless. For that we have Sean Hannity. But as much as they drive me insane, I do know that not all polls are equal. Frankly I didn't trust the Gallup poll from the start. Romney had shred Obama's 20-point lead with women in one debate? Talk about magical thinking. The shape-shifting candidate, whose views on everything from health care to foreign policy to even and incredibly contraception are constantly in flux--wasn't that good.
It turns out the poll was a bit inflated. According to CBS.com:

Hillsborough County Director of Animal Services on "Talking Animals"
Talking Animals May 15 2013 9:00AM - 10:00AM Add to Calendar
Listen Again
My guest on "Talking Animals" May 15 will be Ian Hallett, Director of Hillsborough County Animal Services.
Hallett has held that position for just under a year, arriving from Austin, where he worked in a comparable capacityâdeputy chief animal services for the city of Austin and Travis County--and is credited with bringing that community from a save rate of 45% to 90% within the first year of going No Kill in 2010.
A native of Riverview, Hallett returned to Hillsborough County amidst emotionally-charged controversies swirling around the countyâs euthanasia percentage and the consideration of implementing a No Kill policy, questions about how to deal with feral cats and the corresponding questions about the Trap-Neuter-Release (TNR) policy, and more.
To address these and other issues, Hallett recently prepared and presented to Hillsborough Board of County Commissioners his so-called âBe The Way Homeâ planâan ambitious gambit that includes 60 initiatives intended to reduce the Countyâs euthanasia rate, including a pilot feral cat program. The plan was approved in a 6-1 vote on May 8.
Hallett will join me in studio on May 5 on âTalking Animalsâ to discuss the âBe The Way Homeâ plan and related matters, his observations after nearly a year on the job in Hillsborough County, and more.
Listeners are invited to participate in the conversation by calling (813-239-9663) or e-mailing (email@example.com).

I agree with Mr. Hallet's efforts and regard him highly for his ideas to increase the save rate of animals. As a community it is our responsibility to take care of each other. The trap-neuter-release program seems like a win-win for strays and the community.

Eye on Europe: Prints, Books & Multiples/1960 to Now, October 15, 2006–January 1, 2007
Curator, Debby Wye: Screenprint is a kind of stencil technique that was used almost exclusively for commercial projects before the 1960s. But since it can easily reproduce photographs and create rich, saturated color, it was adopted by Pop artists like Richard Hamilton.
Curator, Wendy Weitman: [The print is based on the] London newspaper image from the late 1960s. Here's Mick Jagger and Hamilton's art dealer, Robert Fraser, hand-cuffed together in the back of a police van, attempting to shield themselves from the paparazzi after being arrested on drug possession. Hamilton made...Release as a benefit for an organization of the same name that provided legal aid for people in trouble with the law.
Curator, Debby Wye: In screenprinting, a different screen is used for each color, and by varying the screens and colors, Hamilton has achieved different effects. Release is grainy, dark and somber, conveying the frightening aspects of being arrested.

The message said:
I, on behalf of the C.C., the Lao People's Revolutionary Party and the government and people of Laos and on my own behalf, extend warm congratulations and greetings to you and, through you, to the WPK, the DPRK government and all the fraternal Korean people on the occasion of the 66th anniversary of the DPRK.

I am convinced that the DPRK would grow steadily strong and prosperous despite all difficulties, turns and twists as long as there is your outstanding and tested leadership.
I am pleased that good and traditional relations of friendship and cooperation between the Lao People's Democratic Republic and the DPRK are growing stronger day by day in conformity with the interests of the peoples of the two countries and regional and global peace, stability and cooperation.

Iraq veteran and wife face challenge of quadruplets – with army of volunteers
In a rare peaceful moment, Iraq veteran Charlie Sandness has his two sons nestled in his arms as his wife, Kelley, rocks their two daughters in a recliner.
All four are 11 weeks old — quadruplets welcomed with shock and joy after their battle with infertility.
Then one impatient scream sets off a chain reaction that ends in a barbershop quartet of wailing from Mason, Mikayla, Andrew and Addison.
The couple, who are both 29, says that for feeding and changing diapers, "Team Sandness," as a doctor called them early on, requires its own army.
The troops – family and members of their LDS Church ward – report daily. About every other day, Kelley's mom, sisters or a friend cover the night shift. On the other days, the new parents alternate, and volunteers watch the babies from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. while Charlie is at work so Kelley can sleep.
"They say it takes a village to raise a baby. Well, it takes four villages to raise our babies," Kelley says.
The helping hands complete a circle of giving. While Charlie was serving in Iraq, Kelley was there to support a family in difficulty.
A sister in need
The Sandnesses were married in 2008, right before Charlie headed to Iraq with the Marines. While he was deployed, Kelley's sister and brother-in-law, Jen and Nick Davenport, faced a family challenge of their own.
Jen had a baby but suffered a major stroke during the delivery. She lost all movement on the right side of her body.
Kelley moved in with the family for about a year to help with the baby, as her sister stayed in the hospital for therapy that included learning how to eat again.
After Charlie's deployment ended he became a drill instructor stationed in San Diego. He and Kelley wanted children. But after a year of trying and an unsuccessful round of costly fertility treatment in San Diego, they were beginning to think it wasn't meant to happen.
'Stop counting!'
Kelley underwent a second round of intra-uterine insemination, during which doctor injects sperm directly into the uterus. When a home pregnancy test was positive one night, Kelley's shriek woke her husband.
"I was in shock," Kelley said. "I didn't ever think it would become a reality."
During the first ultrasound, the doctor started counting. "I was like, 'Stop counting!' " Charlie recalls.
Doctors raised the possibility of aborting two babies to give the others a better chance at surviving. The Sandnesses decided against it.
"After we heard the four heartbeats, we decided 'we will do this and just take it one day at a time,'" Kelley said.
The couple moved to Utah, where Charlie had a new job training members of the Reserves at Fort Douglas in Salt Lake City.
Kelley eventually spent five weeks on hospital bed rest with preeclampsia and received medication to stop contractions. The babies, all weighing more than 3 pounds, were born Nov. 21 by Cesarean section.
They spent about three weeks in the intensive care unit, and then it was time to go home – to the Davenports' house.
'I feel blessed.'
Nick said the decision to bring six more family members into his Sandy, Utah, home was simply taking care of family – and returning Kelley's favor.
He has remodeled his basement into a comfortable home for Team Sandness.
Adapting to another family living underneath them isn't a big deal, he said. The Sandnesses say they're grateful for the help until they get on their feet financially, while the Davenports are enjoying the newest members of their household.
Andrew, the oldest, will fuss until someone feeds him. Mason will fuss and cry regardless. Addison is a goofball, her dad said. Mikayla is the sleeping beauty who snoozes through anything.
"Kelley was there every step of the way [after Jen's stroke], so it was just my turn to pay it back," Nick said. "I feel blessed she was there for me and I could do it now for her."
Charlie said he and Kelley are so thankful for the help, because without it, they would be "zombies."
Still, caring for the four babies is "a blast," Charlie said. "The funny faces they make and they all have personalities. It is overwhelming, but it is fun."

'A Sister's Revenge': Brooke Burns and Ashley Jones embrace the Lifetime movie form
It may be the ultimate "Lifetime movie," generated by two actresses who certainly know the playing field.
Infidelity, seduction and vengeance are hugely familiar ingredients of the cable channel's films, and they all factor into "A Sister's Revenge," premiering Saturday (April 27). Former "Baywatch" co-star Brooke Burns plays said sister, a smart schemer mourning her late sibling, who had an eventually unhappy romance with a novice restaurateur ( Tim Rozon).
Determined to even the score, she targets the man, insinuating her way into the life of his new-mom wife ( Ashley Jones, also an executive producer of the picture) as one element of her evil plan. A secret recording of an intimate encounter and an unexpectedly lethal pitcher of drinks also let you know you are, indeed, watching a "Lifetime movie." And neither of its female stars tries to deny it.
"In every role, if you can find a strong justification for your character, you're off to a pretty good start," Burns tells Zap2it of turning villain after being the heroine of such Lifetime projects as "Borderline Murder" and "Time and Again." "That drives you through the movie, and especially when you're shooting things out of sequence, it's all married together as far as what your intention is.
"For me, the thread of this character's deep loyalty to her sister was beautiful. In one way, it was easily justified ... yet in her mental instability, her actions are completely wrong. It's one of those things where they say, 'Love is stronger than death." I think that's what she believed, and she wanted this man to pay for what she believed were his responsibilities in her sister's death."
Also reprising the part of Bridget Forrester on the CBS weekday serial "The Bold and the Beautiful," Jones has produced other Lifetime movies she's starred in ( "Secrets From Her Past," "Dead at 17"). She confirms there was early talk of her playing the perpetrator in "A Sister's Revenge," but she finally chose to portray the potential victim instead.
"Brooke and I clicked immediately, off-set as well, so we were looking forward to the moments that we had together on-set," Jones says. "Most of the time, we had completely opposite schedules, but it was a very fine line [to play in shared scenes]. I didn't want the audience to think I was too stupid. I wanted to keep the character old-style, but I also wanted it known that she wasn't missing a beat."
Jones has a clear read on what's expected when she works for Lifetime as both actress and producer. "People who watch stuff like this really eat it up," she reasons. "They know what they're getting. They love the suspense, and they give that suspension of disbelief. They just go along with it.
"Maybe I'm having a girls' night at home, or maybe I just want to plop down and order food and watch TV. You're in a certain mood, and it goes with the territory. And that is one thing that makes me really excited and happy to do these kinds of movies. You almost do it with a wink."
Which was how Burns took the script for "A Sister's Revenge" when she first read it, since every time it seems her alter ego has done the most heinous thing possible, she tops it. "They definitely gave me a lot to do," she muses. "She decided this guy needed to pay, but her own darkness took it to such an extreme, all reality was lost. It was never enough for her.
"She would take one thing from him and think, 'You know what? I don't feel good yet. Let's do something else.' And that wasn't enough, either. Nothing could relieve her of her pain, and that's kind of the point: Nothing can."
Given that undertone to the story, Jones -- a "True Blood" alum who also has appeared on The CW's "90210" in its current home stretch -- maintains, "I feel like my job as an actor, and as someone who loves this genre, is to go in and make it not so cliched. And to make it as smart as possible."
And as a producer, Jones realizes such movies have the potential to play virtually forever, as long as Lifetime and Lifetime Movie Network exist.
"We have a contract that they run a certain number of times while Lifetime owns them, then the rights fall back into our hands and they're sold internationally. They just don't die. You want to do your best work, because they don't go away."
