McDonalds is so cheap anyway. At least go somewhere a bit classier and try and blag yourself some discount.
Where I work soldiers sometimes come in asking for discount. ... No can do.

I carried a .45 on duty, and still do. There are still a lot of departments and cops that carry and prefer the .45 ACP. What are you saying we should all be carrying? I'll take my .45 over a 9mm or .40 any day.

The Lebanese Army defused two rockets aimed at northern Israel.
The Grad rockets, located in southern Lebanon close to the border with Israel, were believed to have been placed there since Israel's Operation Pillar of Defense against Gaza began six days ago, according to a Reuters report that cited unnamed sources.
They were located less than one mile from an Israeli military site on Mount Hermon in the Golan Heights.
Several Palestinian groups operate in southern Lebanon, though the border has been quiet in recent years. The Iran-backed terrorist group Hezbollah is also based in Lebanon.

text: XBMC (formerly Xbox Media Center) has always been a popular choice for retiring an original Xbox. Maybe people install it for lack of something better to do or maybe it's the pride in having better media support than the 360. The XBMC team has found another device that has a pretty weak television experience, the Mac. Lifehacker took the latest XBMC for OSX beta build for a run now that it supports remote controls. It seems like a much more functional than Apple's built in Front Row. There are a few things that don't quite work yet, which you can find in the FAQ. We're definitely going to try this on our old Mac mini… once we upgrade it to Leopard, which is an unfortunate caveat that might prevent people from running XBMC on legacy hardware. There is no Apple TV support planned because of limited horsepower and the hacking hurdles that might be required. If you're interested in repurposing your old Xbox with XBMC, check out Lifehacker's install guide.

The twelfth-century Norman poet Wace occupies an important place in medieval historiography and had an incalculable influence on medieval romance. By translating Geoffrey of Monmouth's "history" of Britain, the Historia Regum Britanniae, into his French verse Roman de Brut, he instantly allowed the layman as well as the clerk access to the "information" that Britain, settled by Brutus the grandson of Aeneas, had a long and proud history whose climax was the reign of king Arthur. Wace's work led in turn to the thirteenth-century English translation by La3amon and to numerous other Anglo-Norman and English "Bruts"; it also provided the starting-point and inspiration for the flowering …

Travel from Frankfurt to Disneyland Paris
I am trying to book train tickets to travel from Frankfurt to Disneyland Paris. I have been on the DB Bahn website and believe that I need to change trains at some point but am not sure where the best place to change would be. I am assuming that I can make the reservation from Frankfurt to a stop in Paris and then take another train from there to Disneyland. The ticket from Paris to Disneyland would have to be purchased once in the Paris station. If anyone could verify that my thinking is correct please let me know. I would like to call DB BAHN, if anyone knows the number to call that would be great. Thanks

Alec Baldwin and pregnant wife Hilaria Thomas put on PDA at Cannes
Alec Baldwin's pregnant wife Hilaria Thomas accompanied him to the 2013 Cannes Film Festival, where the couple put on their Sunday best and posed for photographers to promote Baldwin's film, "Seduced and Abandoned."
But Hilaria's future baby daddy wasn't all business, as he rarely ever is. Alec was having so much fun at the photocall that he suddenly swooped Hilaria off her feet, cradled her like a bride being carried over the honeymoon threshold, and planted a huge wet one on her kisser. Baldwin's bride, who is expecting her first child with the actor around mid-August, didn't seem to mind her husband's fast moves.
"Seduced and Abandoned" is a documentary that follows Baldwin and his director pal James Toback as they hustle around the 2012 Cannes Film Festival, looking for financing for a remake of "Last Tango in Paris."

Transcript Manager Pro available for Mac OS
updated 03:10 pm EDT, Sat November 3, 2007
1360 Studios' TMP for Mac
Software developer 1360 Studios has released Transcript Manager Pro, which it claims is the "first ever" real-time transcript management software for the Mac. The software is designed to allow attorneys to connect to court reporters while in deposition or court, and get a live feed of the court transcript. Released for Windows last year, 1360 said it decided to release a Mac version of Transcript Manager Pro to allow clients to run the software on their platform of choice, rather than conforming to a standard. The software is available from 1360 Studio's website for $650.
Transcript Manager Pro features a real-time display of the transcript, allowing users to review the text as it is being typed. Documents can be exported to Adobe PDF format, so it can be readily shared with intended recipients, and the "Search and Report" tool lets users search the transcript to find necessary information. The software also has a case management feature, in which users can organize key points and issues, and prioritize their status.

U.K. cops look into face-recognition tech

2008 Olympics could go open sourceDecember 2, 2005
The Police Information Technology Organization is already working on a Facial Images National Database (FIND) project to deliver a national mugshot database for law enforcement agencies in England, Scotland and Wales. It aims to create a database of stills and videos of facial images, marks, scars and tattoos that'll be linked to criminals' details on the Police National Computer. The first FIND pilot is planned for the first quarter of this year, with police forces in the north of England.
Now the IT agency wants to look at the business case for the national introduction of face-recognition technology by police forces.
The agency said it has awarded contracts to Aurora Computer Services to install its facial-recognition technology to provide demonstrations of the technology to the police service and other government agencies.
Geoff Whitaker, the IT agency's head of biometrics, said the organization is "in the process of assessing the ability of current face-recognition technology to meet the requirements of the police service for automated identification."
With the rollout of the FIND database, Whitaker said, the use of facial biometrics will take on "greater importance" in policing.
He added in a statement: "As with any biometric, such as fingerprints, iris (scans) or DNA, the usefulness of facial recognition in identification is dependant on the circumstances in which it is used.
"Whilst at the present time it seems unlikely that the accuracy of automated facial-recognition technology will ever match that of fingerprints, it is nevertheless a powerful tool used by each of us everyday to identify friends, colleagues and loved ones, and it has a vital role to play within the investigative process."
Steve Ranger reported for ZDNet UK.

- beginning?
- i believe that this is a great idea. i also think that all of the police computers need to be interlinked somehow so that one police department can expand their search horizon with the evidence that they do have so that serial criminals can be stopped before they cause more heartache and pain to civilians..

- this could be just the beginning
- i believe that this is a great idea. now maybe this way the police can locate the criminals and stop them, before the criminals cause more damage

Are you bored of your current, monotonous gym routine but struggling to think up new ways to push yourself? Are you currently in a training rut, turning up at the gym day in day out and simply going through the motions? If you can answer yes to these questions then help could be at hand, so make sure you continue to read on.
Here at FitnessBeans we have just the thing that could spice up your current workout and kick start your fitness desire – with a little workout we like to call 'The Numbers Game'.
The beauty with this workout is that it's fun whilst at the same time extremely challenging; you can pit yourself against yourself and/or others and you can apply the training template to each and every exercise you can think of, so the versatility of it is incredible. Like the sound of it so far? Let us consider what is expected of you during this workout.
The main difference between this workout and others is that you don't have predetermined repetitions and sets as you would with your traditional weight lifting programme. Instead, there is a final repetition number which you must achieve in as little sets as possible.
For example, during your back workout you may opt to complete pull-ups as part of your exercises. Typically, this might consist of 3 sets x 8-10 repetitions before you move on to an alternative back exercise. Conversely, 'The Numbers Game' involves you setting an ultimate target repetition, such as 50, before trying to achieve this number in as little sets as possible.
You may achieve 15 on your first go before requiring a rest period. Following this rest period you may then achieve another 10 before requiring another rest before achieving a further 10 repetitions. This places you on 35 repetitions after 3 sets. It may take you a further 2 sets to complete your target, achieving a score of 8 repetitions followed by the final 7 required.
Traditional training example: (3 x 8-10) 8-10 reps, 8-10 reps, 8-10 reps
The numbers game example: (First to 50) 15 reps, 10 reps, 10 reps, 8 reps, 7 reps
Each time you must push yourself to the limits until you have nothing further to give on each set. By doing this not only can you categorically state that your muscles are being worked to exhaustion, but you will also achieve an incredible pump as a result of this training.
There are several factors to consider prior to commencing this alternative training method:
If you consider the above four factors and maintain them consistently each time you chose this particular training method, then you will also be able to monitor your progress and try and beat your previous scores. However, you must remember that if you chose to add numerous muscle groups in a single session (for example chest, back and shoulders) then the exercise order should also be maintained if looking to accurately compare previous scores.
The numbers game workout really is a competitive means of switching your training around and shocking your body into achieving new fitness highs. So if you're current training schedule is lacking excitement and in need of a change, why not give this a go today.

I ordered 20 mags 12/26 and received on 1/29, so expect a looong wait. They just showed up on my doorstep one day even though the website still showed (processing). They seem to be a really good quality and worth
Ordered mags on 1/11 and they immediately charged my credit card. Nothing received yet. Not a big deal but don't like that I paid already.
Anyone receive anything from them?
I ordered 20 mags 12/26 and received on 1/29, so expect a looong wait. They just showed up on my doorstep one day even though the website still showed (processing). They seem to be a really good quality and worth
The price, so if the wait wasn't so long and the owner such a butt head I would order more!
OK, thanks, I will wait some more....
Ordered on the 1/7, got notice it was shipping on the 2/22. I read some were that you order them and forget you did. Sooner or later they should show up.
I ordered 6 around 1/6 and receive them towards the end of February. I ordered 6 more on 1/16 and they have not come in yet. Worth the wait because you are getting the new revision 3 of the mag where they have addressed the fit issue. I assume you are talking about the E Lander mags. If not then never mind!
I did receive the nags yesterday, 3/19. So a two month + wait, but the mags appear to be a very nice product.
I called and asked what the issue was, and they claimed it would be at least another full month before they ship. That would put it well past my ability to file a dispute with my CC bank, which puts me in a bit of a quandary. I don't need the mags as I have amassed about 50 during that time in Pmags, Troy Battlemags, and good old Colt standard 30-round metal mags. I also have some of those Thermomold expanding mags and others. I'm not jonesing for mags, so I can be patient, but I also don't need them either.
I'll probably just suck it up and wait, but as a small business web vendor myself, my agreement with all of the various CC companies absolutely prohibits me from charging a customer prior to shipment of the product (there is a difference between an auth and a charge). That is the general agreement all merchants agree to, but I am sure there are some exceptions. I'm not sure if Mako is one of those exceptions, or if they're just riding the line.
Either way, I am modestly concerned, but I'll get over it -- if they get here.

Awards, Honors, and Recognition
The SUNY New Paltz chapter of the American Marketing Association won an Outstanding Chapter Planning award at the 21st Annual Collegiate Chapter Conference, held in New Orleans in April. This prestigious award recognizes goal-oriented programming and high levels of performance. Our chapter competed against 100 collegiate chapters, 65 of which attended the conference from such schools as Penn State, the University of Wisconsin, and the University of Illinois. "The ambitious chapter plan required a lot of planning and was excellently executed," said the director of business programs, Hadi Salavitabar. "The accomplishments of this outstanding group of students and faculty advisors have made our students better educated business people and have significantly contributed to the quality of our business programs," he said. The three-day conference was attended by six student executive board members, Jenna Herlihy, Monica Baker, Michelle Roguso, Ted Marsh, Michael Jandrew and Jerry Cibulski; and two advisors, Ted Clark (Business Administration) and Rachel Reuben (Public Affairs).
Additionally, the SUNY New Paltz AMA chapter won the "SUNY New Paltz Organization of the Year Award," presented in May at the New Paltz All-Campus Formal which was organized by the Office of College Activities. The award is issued by that office to the student organization that consistently offers programs, workshops and conferences that provide the greatest benefit to the largest number of New Paltz students throughout the academic year. The chapter president, junior Jenna Herlihy, accepted the award on behalf of the organization.

Paula C. Childs (MS/Education, '93 and certificate of advanced study in administration, '96) teaches first grade at JFK Elementary School in Kingston, where she has been employed for seven years. She is working towards a doctoral degree in curriculum and teaching at Teacher's College, Columbia University. Childs recently received national teacher's certification by the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards. According to her, there are currently about 1200 teachers nationally who hold this honor, and she is one of only two early childhood specialists in the state this year who are certified in this manner. Additionally, Childs' teaching practices, such as the incorporation of phonics into many activities, earned her recognition in a book, New Connections: An Integrated Approach to Literacy, written by former elementary education chair, Kathy Pike. Published in 1996, Pike's book is currently being used as a text in some SUNY New Paltz courses in reading. Childs has also been selected to serve as a demonstration teacher for 1999/2000. Area teachers will visit her classroom to observe and learn to create units such as the math/science technology unit which Childs developed by a grant through BOCES in Ulster, Orange and Sullivan counties. Childs is the founder of King's Kids, a not-for-profit organization designed to meet the academic, talent and moral development needs of children between the ages of four and 18.

The tenth anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks in America will be commemorated this year, prompting us to remember and reflect upon the terrible events of that day. The library has a variety of books and videos about various aspects of the tragedy, from memoir to probing political exposé. Browse the Nine Eleven book list.
In The Family Dinner: Great Ways to Connect with Your Kids, One Meal at a Time, Laurie David offers some startling statistics about the importance – and scarcity – of the family dinner. Only "half of modern families eat together more than three to five times a week" and that time is usually spent in front of the television. The six o'clock family dinner of healthy, homecooked food enjoyed together over leisurely conversation seems to be a swiftly vanishing occurrence…and yet statistics have proven that the family dinner is a vital tool for improving grades and helping to fight obesity and drug abuse. Luckily, this book offers you a roadmap to family-dinner bliss, providing all the recipes and conversation topics you need to get started or enhance your current routine.
Recipes, authored by Kirstin Uhrenholdt, are grouped into "Fast Recipes," "Cook it Together at the Table," "Souper Dinners," "Take it Slow," "Meatless Mondays," and "Kids in the Kitchen." There are recipes here to appeal to all palates. I can't wait to try "Soy Good Maple-Glazed Salmon with Edamame Succotash" and "Savory Sausage and White Bean Stew." I can imagine the kids gobbling up the homemade "Mac n' Cheese Please" or the "Thai Chicken Wraps." Helpful recipes for vinaigrettes to dress your salad will have you eschewing bottled sauce forever. And don't forget to try one of the simple sweets in "Play with Your Dessert."
It's 1933 and President Roosevelt is having a devil of a time finding someone to appoint to the post of ambassador to Germany in Erik Larson's In the Garden of Beasts. All of the usual picks politely decline the post, as news of Germany's foreboding political atmosphere drifts to America. Roosevelt eventually settles on William E. Dodd, a historian at the University of Chicago whose primary goal is to finish his multi-volume historical treatise on the antebellum South before he dies. By most accounts, Dodd is an odd pick for ambassador, being neither rich nor well-connected. Most ambassadors entertain lavishly during their appointments, and it is expected that the costs will come from their own coffers. Frugal Dodd immediately made waves by pledging to live solely on his meager income, almost unheard of in cosmopolitan Berlin.
Dodd naively sees the appointment as a respite from the trials of University department chairmanship and a boon of time to work on his project. He, like most Americans, is grossly uninformed about the political machinations happening in Germany, as Hitler, Göring, and Goebbels vie for power and German Jews are increasingly menaced. The entire Dodd family decides to come along to Berlin, ready for a new lark: the professor and his wife, Mattie, their son, William Jr., and their beautiful, flirtatious, 24-year-old daughter, Martha (who happens to also be fleeing the wreckage of a precipitous marriage to a banker).
In Sara Gruen's Water for Elephants, 23-year-old veterinary student, Jacob Jankowski, is looking forward to graduating with a degree from Cornell University and joining his father's veterinary practice. Unfortunately, fate intervenes and Jacob's parents are killed in an automobile accident. Jacob learns that his parents have no savings and plenty of debt, having bartered for veterinary payments from cash-poor farmers (it is the Depression, after all) and mortgaged their house to the teeth in order to pay his tuition.
Bereft of both parents and financial future, Jacob despairs and jumps a train moving through the town. It happens to belong to the Benzini Brothers Most Spectacular Show on Earth, a poor cousin to Ringling Brothers. Once it's discovered that he has veterinary experience, he is put in charge of the animals, a task that is at once heartwarming, thankless, and distressing. The circus is run by the greedy Uncle Al and the brilliant but mercurial August, the animal trainer who keeps the circus afloat. August, a paranoid schizophrenic, alters between warmly welcoming Jacob and trying to kill him.

During the first weekend in August each year, back-to-school shoppers in Virginia get a break from paying sales tax on qualifying school supplies, clothing, and footwear. This year the tax holiday is Friday, August 5 - Sunday, August 7th. According to the Virginia Department of Taxation, "during this three-day period, purchases of qualifying school supplies selling for $20 or less per item, and purchases of qualifying clothing and footwear selling for $100 or less per item will be exempt from sales tax." The list of school supplies can be found here.
One of the things I love about getting lost in the stacks at my local library branch is that serendipitous experience of happily looking through the books on each shelf and finding my next great read. Now you can duplicate that experience at home using the new Virtual Shelf Browser feature in the online catalog.
Under the book's (or movie's, etc.) title and publishing information, you will see a snapshot of a "shelf," with your book right in the middle and selections to each side. These are books that theoretically would physically be next to one another on the shelf at your library. You can click on the arrows to the right or left to advance through the shelf.

Fighting A Tiny Referee: How Not To Look Tough In The NBA
Toronto's Amir Johnson is such a tough dude.
1. Last night, 6'9" Amir Johnson decided to throw his 210lbs around with referee David Jones.
David Jones is basically a little old man.
2. It started with a simple free throw.
3. Amir Johnson went to rebound, but David Jones already retrieved the ball, which is what Jones is supposed to do. Refs have to throw the ball to the shooter before a free throw.
4. Amir Johnson decided he wanted it anyway, so he wrestled Jones for it and got in his face.
5. David Jones did what refs typically do when you wrestle with them, he threw Amir out.
6. And then Amir did what real tough guys do, he tried to intimidate an old man.
7. And then while his teammates had to hold him back(!), he threw his mouthpiece at him.
8. Reminder, THIS is the guy Amir was trying to intimidate.
9. As Amir's teammate DeMar DeRozan said:

What makes learning at French Meadows unique?Posted on September 14th, 2009 by Denny Waxman
Living free from electricity, radio waves and EMF's, etc. and communing with nature with no means of escape is an incredible experience and contrast to most of our daily lives. Eating wood fire cooked food in such a pristine environment has two unique benefits. The first is that it creates an unusually strong and deep physical and energetic alignment among the teachers, staff and participants. The second is that the environment and wood fire cooked food alkalize people's conditions very quickly creating a positive, upbeat and helpful attitude among everyone very quickly that deepened by the day.
All together I felt that the learning was more organic and deep than is possible in other situations. I realized from being there that macrobiotic education in natural surroundings together with hearty cooking has a unique learning potential.

James Dobson resigned as chairman of Focus on the Family but will continue to play a role at the Colorado Springs-based organization he founded, The Associated Press reports. Dobson's wife, Shirley, also resigned from the Focus board.
Dobson, 72, already turned the ship over six years ago to Jim Daly, the organization's president and chief executive officer. He will continue to host Focus on the Family's radio program, write a monthly newsletter and speak out on moral issues, Daly told Eric Gorski of the AP.
"One of the common errors of founder-presidents is to hold to the reins of leadership too long, thereby preventing the next generation from being prepared for executive authority," Dobson said in a statement. "... Though letting go is difficult after three decades of intensive labor, it is the wise thing to do."
That's the wisest thing he's said in years.

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif speaks during second joint high committee meeting between Kuwait and Iran at the foreign ministry in Kuwait city on December 1, 2013. (AFP PHOTO/YASSER AL-ZAYYAT)
The recent visit by Syrian Prime Minister Wael Halqi to Tehran offered an opportunity to survey in detail the contents of the agreement with Iran on the nuclear file, which includes secret annexes in addition to the atomic issue.
The deal between the West and Iran appears to have raised doubts among Arab states, which explained the tour that Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammed Javad Zarif undertook to Arab and Islamic capitals, at the forefront of which was the Gulf Cooperation Council and, of course, Saudi Arabia.
Informed sources said that it would not be possible to glean a clear picture of the coming period on the internal and regional scenes before finding out the results of Zarif's tour in the next few days.
The sources said the visit by UAE Foreign Minister Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed to Tehran as an emissary of the GCC states might speed up the process of reaching Arab-Iranian agreement on many regional issues, including of course Lebanon.
Diplomatic sources indicate the Lebanese file has been temporarily delegated to the Iranian administration by Russia, in order for it to work on finding solutions to ongoing problems, amid the preoccupation by Moscow, Washington and other major capitals with the Syrian crisis.
The diplomatic sources said that international and regional observers wanted to know whether Iran would be able to integrate with its Gulf state neighbors, who in the past have declared a unified position on Syria. But the sources expressed fears that the conservative elements in Iran, who consider themselves disadvantaged by the nuclear agreement, will use the time period before the signing of a final agreement to undermine the deal.
Two different currents have emerged in Iran – one is moderate, open and wants dialogue and is represented by President Hassan Rouhani, and the other is conservative.
But the diplomatic sources said that the Saudis and Iranians agree on stabilizing the Lebanese scene, amid an international, American, regional and Iranian position advocating de-escalation in Lebanon and setting the scene for a new economic reality based on exploiting the offshore oil reserves in the Lebanese and Israeli waters of the Mediterranean Sea.
The effect of Iran's role in revitalizing its relationship with its Arab neighbors is likely to have echoes in Lebanon, according to the sources, who point to confirmation that Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri plans to relaunch his consultations and communications with all political factions, particularly the March 14 bloc.
These contacts are aimed at defusing internal tensions and creating a positive atmosphere to help find consensus on a new unity government, after it became clear a government that comprised one faction and that marginalized any political grouping in the country was unworkable.
A meeting last Saturday between President Michel Sleiman and Prime Minister-designate Tammam Salam broached the issue of forming a government made up of independents and technocrats in a manner that does not provoke the March 8 factions or Hezbollah.
Sleiman is expected to issue statements on government formation and other issues in a speech Wednesday at a conference on human sciences in Jbeil.
The issue of the Cabinet and the presidential elections was of major prominence in a meeting between Berri and former Prime Minister Fouad Siniora Sunday. Berri discussed with Siniora his visit to Tehran and reaffirmed the importance of a Saudi-Iranian rapprochement, in addition to stressing his readiness for any meetings that could help counter the spreading of strife.
Siniora, meanwhile, stressed the importance of returning to national dialogue to discuss all issues including the Cabinet and the presidential elections, amid indications that the Future Movement wants to hold them on time. That position is reflected in visits by Future to prominent religious and political figures, including an expected visit by Siniora to Bkirki that follows similar visits last week by MPs Ahmed Fatfat and Hadi Hobeich.
However, Hezbollah's position is different from Future's, as the party considers it too early to discuss the presidential elections. Instead, sources close to Hezbollah said that what was needed was an end to the vacuum and the creation of a government of national unity to defend the nation amid circumstances that pose a threat to Lebanon, which were outlined by Interior Minister Marwan Charbel after his recent visit to Bkirki.
The Hezbollah sources invited March 14 to accept a joint Cabinet and to avoid tying it to other preconditions in order to buy time.
