Miley Cyrus in Elle
On her new Wal-mart clothing line: "The jeans are my favorite part of the entire line. Because, like, literally this is going to be good for, like, Middle America, and it will be great for kids that really want to be in fashion but that don't have it available."
On spending her time with other famous kids:"It's hard for all of us. There are so many people that could be using you. So me and Nick [Jonas] and Demi [Lovato], we don't need anything from each other. We got our own thing going on."Skip over this content

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — IBM Corp.'s third-quarter results are expected to extend the technology company's nearly decade-long streak of earnings growth.
IBM's 3Q earnings likely to extend growth streak
WHAT TO WATCH FOR: The numbers, scheduled to come out Tuesday after the stock market closes, will probably illustrate the stability of IBM's strategy, which emphasizes selling software and a variety of technology services to businesses and government agencies.
The company, which is based in Armonk, N.Y., locks many of its customers into contracts that guarantee regular payments even in tough economic times. That provides IBM with some insulation from the economic uncertainty that has made it tougher for other technology companies to close deals, particularly in Europe and in China, in recent months.
It also helps that IBM no longer has a direct connection to the personal computer industry, where a sales slump has been hurting the makers of microprocessors and desktop and laptop machines.
The business software and technology services sector also generate higher profit margins that selling computer equipment, another advantage working in IBM's favor.
All those factors are why analysts are confident that IBM's earnings for the three months ending in September will at least match the projections that influence investors' decisions on whether to buy or sell a stock. If IBM hits the target set by analysts, it will be the 39th consecutive quarter in which IBM's earnings have been higher than the same time in the previous year.

Vertical Warp Core?
View Single Post
December 18 2012, 08:04 PM
Location: This dry land thing is too wierd!
Re: Vertical Warp Core?
Well, actually, the TMP-era linear intermix chamber (NOT "warp core", as the term hadn't been invented yet, and should not be retroactively used) had a vertical segment, from the impulse engines down to engineering, and a horizontal one going back to the struts leading to the nacelles. The later warp cores seem to have one intermix chamber with eps conduits feeding the power elsewhere, whereas the TMP version seemed to have intermix chambers as fr as they could go inside the hull, and conduits only outside the hull. So the vertical core is a refinement of the TMP intermix chamber, and they just chose to go with the vertical segment rather than the horizontal one, for ease of placement of conduits. Vertical cores mean one big hole in the deck, horizontal conduits mean lots of little holes in each deck.

text: ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to analyse the problem of stress and psychological abuse at the workplace. The condition of stress at the workplace can be defined as a series of physiological, psychological and behavioural reactions that are harmful to an individual, and in which the job demands are not in accordance with the individual's capabilities, capacities and needs. The syndrome of job-related burn-out is one of the most unfavourable consequences of being exposed to professional stress for a long period of time. Work-related stress is the result of the interaction of employees and job characteristics. Psychic abuse represents a complex socio-medical problem of moral abuse at work that results in consequences for the psychical and physical health of the victim. It is a well-known fact that work with people is complex and it is a significant source of stress. This paper attempts to warn on the differences between causes and consequences of professional burn-out and psychological abuse, as well as to offer possible methods of facing these problems. Care for the mental health of the employees, particularly in case of stressful occupations, such as health care, judiciary, police and so on, is not a luxury, but a professional obligation. In the institution that takes care of its employees, a prominent place should be given to systematic planning and implementation of organisational measures to prevent psychological abuse and to reduce work-related stress.

ILLUMINATING ATTACHMENT FQR VEHICLE DOOR .LOCKS Filed Sept. 11, 1940 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 In ventor [dwaro Green/ 3 A tiomey Patented Feb. 1 7, 1942 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE ILLUMINATING ATTACHMENT FOR VEHICLE DOOR LOCKS Edward E. Grecnlees, Flint, Mich.
Application September 11, 1940, Serial No. 356,378
4 Claims.
This invention relates to illuminating means for the keyhole of a lock of a vehicle door, the present invention being an improvement over that forming the subject matter of an application filed by me on November 18, 1939, Serial No. 305,161, the general object of the present invention being to provide means for supplying current to a lamp carried by the door handle without the use of wires in the door and by means of a spherical member carried by the door and engaging a spring-pressed contact carried by the frame and connected by a single conductor with a live wire connected with the lighting system of the vehicle.
This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawings and specifically pointed out in the appended claims.
In describingthe invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawings wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which:
Figure l is a fragmentary side view of a vehicle provided with the invention.
Figure 2 is a fragmentary longitudinal sectional view through the door and door frame showing the contact means between said door and frame.
Figure 3 is a section on the line 33 of Figure 2.
Figure 4 is a view partly in elevation and partly in section of the lamp arrangement in the door handle and showing a portion of the shaft connected with the handle and passing through the door for operating the latch means of the door.
Figure 5 is a view of the bail used for connecting the lamp bulb to the socket.
In these drawings, the numeral I indicates a small casing located in the door frame and bolted to the edge thereof and a plunger 2 of nonconducting material is slidably arranged in the casing and has a neck 3 passing through the inner end of the casing and a boss 4 is formed on the front end of the plunger and passes through a hole in the edge of the frame. A spring 5 located in the casing tends to hold the plunger in its forward or projected position with the boss extending through said hole in the edge of the frame. A conductor 6 has one end passing into the neck 3 and the other end is connected to live wire of the illuminating system of the vehicle, preferably to the wire which supplies current to the dome lamp L in the top of the vehicle.' A contact member I is carried by the plunger 2 with one end passing into the boss A and this end having a recess 8 therein. The other end of the contact member is formed with a socket for receiving an end of the conductor and this end of the conductor is held in the socket by a screw 9 passing through a threaded hole in the plunger 2.
A small casing I is attached to the inner part of the door at the free edge thereof and carries a block ll of non-conducting material. The shaft l2 of the door handle l3 passes through this block andthrough the casing Ill and a substantially hemi-spherical recess I3 is formed in the block and has a part in communication with the opening through which the shaft [2 passes. A ball or spherical member I4 is located in the recess and a cap of non-conducting material is fastened to the outer face of the block and has a raised portion l5 projecting through an opening in the free edge of the door and this cap has an opening therein through which a portion of the ball passes with a part of the ball projecting from the raisedportion I5 for engaging the recess in the contact member 1 when the door is closed. The parts are so formed that when the door is being closed the ball will strike the boss 4 of the plunger 2 and press the plunger inwardly against the action of the spring 5 and then the ball will pass into the recess and the spring will force the plunger back so as to cause the recess part of the contact member I to firmly engage the projecting part of the ball.
A collar l6 of non-conducting material is placed on the shaft i2 and is located in the opening in the block II and a conductor rod I1 is located in a sleeve l8 of non-conducting material 10- cated in a part of the shaft l2. This sleeve insulates the conductor rod H from the shaft l2.
, A screw I9 passes through the collar into the shaft and contacts the rod IT. The screw is insulated from the shaft as shown in Figure 2. The head of the screw is located in a hole in the sleeve l6 and partly projects therefrom to engage the ball l4 when the parts are in a position with the handle of the door in position holding the door closed. However, when the handle is turned to open the door, the screw will turn with the shaft, thus turning the collar It so that the head of the screw will move out of engagement with the ball and the ball will only contact a part of the sleeve so that the circuit is broken between the rod I1 and the ball. Thus the circuit will be broken as soon as the handle is turned to unlatching position and even before the door is open and this breaking of the circuit by unlatching movement of the handle will tend to prevent the person grasping the handle from receiving a shock for the circuit is broken as soon as the handle is turned.
A small housing 2| forms the inner end of th handle and the outer end of the rod ll extends into the bottom of the chamber formed by the housing and said housing has a window 22 in its under part. The outer end of the housing is open made in the construction and in the combination and an elongated push button 23 is slidably arranged in the housing with its knurled end 24 the window, a spring actuated live contact in the door frame, a spherical member, a nonprojecting from the housing. The push button conducting part in the door carrying the spherforms a casing which contains a socket 25 for a ical member with the member projecting therelamp bulb 26, the bulb being so positioned that a from and engaging the live contact when the its light will pass through the window 22 to 11- door is closed, a contact rod in the shaft enluminate the keyhole 21. The socketis provided, gazed by a part of the lamp when the push with bayonet slots and the base of the lamp is button is pressed inwardly, and means for 'conformed with the pins 21 engaging these slots and 'necting the spherical member to said rodconsaid base also carries the ball 28 for manipulatl tact when the handle 8 in la hi P n d ing the bulb into and out of the socket and also d means moving Out Of Contact With the Sp for holding the bulb in the socket. The center 1081, m m e when he handle is moved to uncontact of the lamp projects through the inner latching position, 45 button b n p vided with end of the button so that when, the button is gasket, ns r pr vidin a fluid-tl ht Join pressed inwardly this center contact so will enbetween it a th housin I gage the rod [1 so as to complete the circuit 3. An illuminating attachment 1'01 the keyhole to th m t t being grounded on t 1 of a door lock bomprising a door handle including doorr A spring 3| tends to hold the button K housing d a Shaft, Said housing av g a with the lamp easing outwardly with the contact \WindOW therein for the Passage of the light r ys 3g spaced from t rod as shown in Figure to the keyhole, the shaft being rotatably arscrew 32 is carried by the housing 2| and ranged in the door, a push button slidably artends t a slot 33 formed in the lamp casing ranged in the housing, a lamp carried by the for limiting sliding movement of the button and and the rays of which pass through he a gasket 34 is carried by the button for f r i window, a spring actuated live contact in the door a moisture proof connection between the button 5 frame a spherical member, non-conducting and the lamp housing part in the door carrying the spherical member Thus it will be seen that by pressing upon the with the member projecting therefrom and enbutton the circuit to the lamp will be closed game the live Contact when the door is osed, through the contact and the rod [1, the screw l9, ball M, the contact I and the conductor 5. 30 However, when the handle is turned to open the door the circuit will be broken by the screw l9 moving out ofengagement with the ball ll. 4
It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of the invention will be readily apparent.
It is to be understood that changes may be the lamp when the push button is pressed inwardly and means for connecting the spherical member to said rod contact when the handle is in latching position and said means moving out of contact with the spherical member when the handle is moved to unlatching position, said therein, and a bulb and base with a bail carried by the base for engaging the slot. 4. In combination with a door and its frame, a spring-actuated contact carried by the frame and projecting therefrom and having a substantially hemi-sphericalrecess in its outer end, a claimed as new is: conductor connecting the contact with a source t l of supply, a block of non-conducting material in of g i g gggg gg g zzgi 2: 3: fiifi? the door and having a part projecting therefrom, ing a housing and a shaft, said housing having a spherical member movably carried by the block a. window therein for the passage of the light and having a Part Projectmg from he projectrays to the keyhole, the shaft being rotatably armg portion thereof for engaging the Spring conmnged in the door, a push button slidably ab tact when the door is closed, a shaft rotatably mm :d in the housing, a lamp carried by the butiii g the door and pas-sing through the ton and the rays of which pass through the win- 00 5 eeve of nonwom-luctmg mat-erial surdow a spring actuated live contact in the door roundmg the shaft an? havmg an opening there fran'm a Spherical member a nomconducting in, a contact rod carr ed by the shaft and insup g the door carrying spherical member lated therefrom, a pro ection carried by the shaft with the member projectingtherefrom and enf' engagmg the rPd Contact and having a part ocated in the opening of the sleeve for engaging gagmg the Contact when the door 15 closed the spherical member when the shaft is in one 2 2 23 ai i g: 533 :a zg g g g g gf position and moving out of engagement with the pwardlyy and means. for connecting the Spherical spherical member when the shaft is in another member to said rod contact when the handle is in latching position and said means moving out of contact with the spherical member when the handle is moved to unlatching position.

LAWRENCEVILLE - After a night of fluctuating numbers calibrating Gwinnett's political future, Tuesday's primary election ended with two Republican runoffs.According to the unofficial results, which are expected to be certified Friday, incumbent Chairman Charles Bannister was unable to secure the Republican nomination with his 17,897 votes. He received 49.40 percent of the vote, with challenger Commissioner Lorraine Green bringing in 14,657 votes or 40.46 percent. Glenn Pirkle, who came in third place with 3,674 votes or 10.14 percent, will be left off the Aug. 5 runoff ballot. But Elections Supervisor Lynn Ledford said a recount is possible in the District 1 commission race. Former Duluth Mayor Shirley Lasseter secured her place on the runoff ballot with 2,712 votes or 41.95 percent, but the second ballot slot was virtually a lock. With Tuesday's results, Bruce LeVell, a member of the Gwinnett Village Community Improvement District board, has second place with 1,885 votes or 29.16 percent. But former Suwanee Councilwoman Carol Hassell is only 17 votes behind, with 1,868 or 28.89 percent. Because less than 1 percent of the total separates the two, Hassell can request a recount within two days of the certification of the election, Ledford said. "The margin is so tiny that it would be an appropriate thing to do to verify it," Hassell said, indicating she was leaning toward the recount option. "We'll see what happens as the process moves along. ... Seventeen votes is a very skinny margin." The runoff will determine the District 1 commissioner as no Democrats qualified for the office, but the winner of the chairman's runoff will face Vincent Passariello in November. Ledford said she was disappointed with the 15.08 percent turnout in Tuesday's primary election, but she said the two local races could make for a more interesting runoff turnout. County polls will also be open Aug. 5 for a statewide runoff for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate between Vernon Jones and Jim Martin.

COVINGTON — Alcovy's baseball team is hoping that the mostly half sophomore, freshmen team can take them to next level with the help of the upperclassman.
"I think the senior leadership we have this year is going to be a real calming force," first-year Alcovy head coach Ryan Denison said. " Those guys are willing to foster the younger kids up to the varsity level."
Of the 18 players on the varsity, five are seniors and four are sophomores with two freshmen also on the team.
While the Tigers have a lot of young talent, the problem is going to be getting them developed in time to help get them to post-season play.
That help is going to be necessary with the pitching staff as Alcovy only has two tested pitchers with the rest of the staff helping as needed.
Alcovy's main pitching is going to come from senior Dalton Reagin with Nathan Purcell getting time on the hill when he's not behind the plate.
"Pitching is going to be young again this year," Denison said. "I'm really looking for some of those sophomores to step up and see if they can play at the varsity level. I'm looking for Hunter Phillips, Marc Beddington, Quinton Grizzard and Blake Earnest to step up. We have a ninth grader that's going to be pretty good, Brock Carter, we're going to see what he's made of too."
While their defense is again going to be a big part of their success, hitting is going to play a major part. The Tigers have never had a steady amount of power hitters but what they have always counted on are players that can put the ball in play. While they have been working on their power, contact hitting is again going to take precedence.
"We're going to have a lot of good contact hitters. We've been in the weight room since August so we're going to see if that will pay off and hopefully we'll have a little bit more power this year," Denison said. "We have to hit it and let home runs happen. But getting them into the weight room will be that added bonus. If we do make good solid contact then it's more likely to go out. But it's kind of hard to hit home runs with those bbcor bats anyway."
One thing that is not going to change is the way the Tigers attack the basepath as both Denison and former head coach Casey Bates believed the same way.
"(Bates) and I really didn't have a lot of differences in philosophy. A solid defense and good pitching wins games and be aggressive on the base path. We always agreed that you have to be aggressive on the bases to put the pressure on the defense," Denison added.
If the Tigers can get their young players to mature and step up their game, Denison is hoping to dethrone Luella. The Lions have won the region for the past three years and were runnerups three year straight before that.
"I really think we have a pretty good shot at winning region this year and having enough competition to beat Luella," he said. "We want to get back to that second and third round round of the playoffs and see what happens. Once you get there you never know what's going to happen."

Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reports that the he's hearing that the market for Matt Cassel could consist of the Vikings, Buccaneers and Cardinals. The Alex Smith trade became official today and the Chiefs wasted no time in signing Chase Daniel this afternoon, which is a clear of an indication that Cassel will be released as any. Cassel has a $7.5 million base salary for the upcoming season, which is way too much for any to consider. We'll have to see what the market holds for Cassel in the coming days.

Members of the Center for the Study of Economics in Philadelphia came to New London Saturday to make their pitch on how it could happen. City councilors in the audience promised a closer look at the idea.
The center predicts change for urban centers through a land-value tax. Such a system taxes land at a higher rate but reduces or eliminates tax on buildings and other improvements.
Revenue to the community would remain the same, said center Director Joshua Vincent at the New London Public Library, before an audience of more than 20 local activists and officials.
Under the current system, owners of vacant land are penalized for developing the land because new buildings mean more taxes, said Vincent, who is also a former New London resident. As a result, vacant land often remains vacant.
"It punishes those that do for the community and rewards those that decide to abandon the community," Vincent said.
It also encourages urban sprawl, as the high tax rate in the city drives homeowners to the suburbs, he said.
Reducing the tax on improvements, in contrast, creates a greater incentive to build, or selling it to someone else who will. They would build with higher-quality materials, avoid blight and redevelop economically depressed areas, Vincent said. Environmentalists like it, because if you save cities, then you save the countryside, he said.
As an example offered by Vincent, Clairton, Pa., had a tax rate of 29.5 mills. It was getting 25.3 percent of its revenues from land values, and 73.5 percent from building values.
Using the land value tax system, it set a tax rate of 104 mills on land and 4.3 mills on buildings, which yielded 89.6 percent of its revenues from land and 10.4 percent from buildings. Its revenue of $3.7 million remained the same.
Its residents saw tax cuts, development opportunities opened up and revenues stabilized, Vincent said. Other Pennsylvania cities have had success, as have communities worldwide, he said.
New London could take advantage of such a change, especially as an underutilized hub for ferry and train transportation, Vincent said.
But various legislative efforts to allow towns to use land value taxation in the state have failed to move forward.
Both Mayor Kevin J. Cavanagh and newly elected council member Adam Sprecace said they will ask legislators to help the city take a closer look at the option when they meet with them Jan. 22.
Cavanagh said more research would have to answer questions, such as whether businesses will actually pay their fair share of property taxes, if homeowners would actually see a savings, and whether it would promote development in reality.
State Rep. Elissa Wright, D-Groton, said she also wanted more information, but that it "could be an arrow in the quiver to revitalize urban centers and refocus investment to areas with existing infrastructure."
Connecticut is too reliant on property taxes, she added.
"I don't think there's any harm in creating options," Sprecace said. "It could be a way to help New London help itself." Article UID=d2c56787-6fce-477e-ab71-f1e4119bd88c

Celtics Spurs: one of my favorite NBA match-ups. One that features the two preeminent big men of the new millennia as well as two of the league's best coaches. But the similarities don't end there. Both teams feature a trio of All-Stars who have sacrificed scoring, playing time, and salary for the good of their perspective teams. Doc Rivers has praised Gregg Popovich on numerous equations, and when asked which values he shares with the Spurs 4-time Champion head coach, he responded "All of them, pretty much all of them". Both are known as "team-ball" advocates, defense-first believers (though lately the Spurs have become an offensive juggernaut), and master motivators. While Tim Duncan was the ultimate #1 pick in 1997, Tony Parker was drafted with the 28th pick in 2001, and Manu Ginobili was taken at #58 in 1999, without a doubt the greatest draft steal from that late in the 2nd round. Current General Manager, R.C. Buford, has continued this unbelievable talent-scouting since tak...

Charmbracelet World Tour: An Intimate Evening with Mariah Carey was the name of Mariah Carey's 2003-2004 worldwide concert tour. It takes its name from Carey's 2002 album Charmbracelet, which had been released six months earlier.
The long-running length of the tour had actually not been planned. After the initial stretch of the tour, Carey decided to add additional dates. For the new dates, she performed a more condensed show, cutting off several songs from the setlist and performing new songs in their place with Christmas elements during seasonal periods. Fans praised Carey for being in excellent voice the entire tour and Carey has claimed that the tour prepared her voice to record her next album The Emancipation of Mimi.
Carey's sexual image also generated some controversy during the tour. In various countries, she was often criticised for her choice of dress, and a Pan-Islamic youth leader attempted to have her banned from performing in Malaysia. Carey opted to wear jeans and a tank top for the entire Malaysian concert.
According to Billboard and All Business, the tour grossed $30 million worldwide. The 36 international dates grossed 40% more revenue ($17.5 million) than the 33 US dates ($12.5 million).
The tour of some Asian countries were either rescheduled or canceled due to a respiratory disease known as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome. The tour in Singapore was canceled, and the tour in Korea was rescheduled.

trieste or ljubljana
My husband and I will be traveling to Central/Eastern Europe the end of September 2013 for about 2 weeks. We will arrive in Vienna on a non-stop flight. We plan to go to Budapest, Krakow, and Warsaw. When we arrive in Vienna, I am trying to select between Trieste and Ljubljana for a 3 night stay. Which city would you recommend?

Quit our jobs, sold our home, gone riding...

A few weeks ago, Mark from ADV sent us an invite, opening up his guest house to Neda and I. So we spent nearly a week with him and his family, during which time they basically adopted us!
Mark and I installing engine bars on my bike
After getting the bikes powerwashed and cleaned, we got to work installing the SW-Motech crash bars that I had ordered and sent to Mark's place. My big GS has eaten more gravel in the last 5 months than in the last 6 years I've owned her. Since we're showing no aversion to dirty, gravelly, sandy roads, I thought I'd quit being such a tough guy and give her a little more protection. Mark told me he builds and fixes airplanes for a living, so I guess he's qualified to help me out.
Actually, not being very mechanically-minded, I was quite nervous having an airplane mechanic look over my shoulder while installing something as simple as crash bars:
"Um Mark, could you hand me one of those thingies with the C-thingie on the end?"
"You mean a wrench, Gene?"
"If that's what you Americans call it...!"
California oranges growing in Mark's back yard
Mark lives in a small community just north of San Diego, and the weather there is perfect! We've spent so long outrunning the freezing cold, riding further and further south, and outside of Death Valley, this is perhaps the first time we've reached such an ideal climate for riding. And we've got a bed and roof to sleep under as well! We spent a lot of time with Mark and his family; they had us over for dinner, we had them over for dinner (in their own guest house) - they are a really close-knit family with a love for travel and motorsports. Exactly our kind of folks!
Giving Susie some tips on riding. Here I'm showing her how short fingernails facilitate in the braking process
Susie, Mark's wife, mentioned that she was looking to do more street riding but needed to brush up on her skills. Since Neda and I were motorcycle instructors in our past life, we totally jumped on the opportunity to help her out. We borrowed a TW200 from one of Mark's friends and rode it out to the airport where Mark works for some parking lot practice.
After a quick lesson on push-steering, Susie slaloms like a pro!
I try out the TW and AHHH!!! No unbalanced panniers, bike turns too quickly!!!
Mark invited us to stay till after Thanksgiving, telling us that the traffic would be too bad to travel over the holidays. This was our first ever American Thanksgiving, in America, with Americans, and it was such a heart (and belly) warming experience. Mark and Susie don't have a lot of family in the area, so every year they have an "Orphans' Thanksgiving", inviting all of their friends who also don't have family nearby to spend the holidays with. We definitely fell into that category!
Neda helped cook, I just stayed out of the way. But I did put the marshmallows on the yams!
Mark is an excellent cook, timing all the dishes to be ready at the same time with military precision. Neda picked up some great recipes from him, and I was astounded that you could put marshmallows over potatoes and have them turn out so delicious! Copious amounts of brown sugar and pecans also help!
Thanksgiving with our adopted family. Neda and I had such huge grins over the whole week!
Susie made pumpkin pie. Sean, their youngest son in the background
Mike, their oldest son was celebrating his birthday as well!
Mark and Mike and a few of their friends took us to some of their favorite twisty roads in the area. We rode Hwy 76 around Escondido and then up the road to the Palomar observatory
After spending a week with Mark and his family, we're leaving in much better shape (round is a shape, right?) physically and mentally for the journey ahead. The time was well spent gathering new maps, new insurance and new currency. We rode away from our temporary sanctuary waving ecstatic goodbyes. I hope we'll see Mark and Susie and their family again soon in our travels!

Infiltration or bad blood behind Afghan attacks?
Exum said the insider attacks have "tremendous strategic impact" beyond the 36 coalition forces killed this year because they damage morale among international troops and further weaken support for the war in the U.S. and other NATO nations training Afghan soldiers and police to take over security nationwide by 2014.
What's unclear, he added, is how much influence the Taliban actually have in organizing the increasing numbers of attacks.
The insurgents have been happy to take credit. The Taliban's supreme leader, Mullah Mohammad Omar, boasted Thursday that the insurgents "have cleverly infiltrated into the ranks of the enemy" and were killing a rising number of U.S.-led coalition forces.
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta told The Associated Press in an interview this week that the attacks may reflect the Taliban's use of unconventional tactics against a coalition force it cannot defeat on the battlefield. He added that U.S. military commanders say such attacks still remain "sporadic" and not a long-term trend.
Friday's deadly shooting in Farah, at least by the accounts of local Afghan officials, seemed unlikely to be a personal dispute. Mohammad Ismail, a man in his 30s, had joined the Afghan Local Police just five days earlier. He opened fire during an inauguration ceremony attended by American and Afghan forces in Kinisk village, Farah provincial police chief Agha Noor Kemtoz said.
"As soon as they gave the weapon to Ismail to begin training, he took the gun and opened fire toward the U.S. soldiers," Kemtoz said. The police chief added that he had warned U.S. forces organizing and training the community not to move too fast to recruit in the village, which he said is heavily influenced by the Taliban.
Afghan military analyst Amrullah Amman has no doubt that Taliban infiltration of Afghan security forces is rising. He said that despite new methods of screening, it's simple to forge documents and invent references in Afghanistan.
"The gate is wide open. The enemy is infiltrating because they see it's very easy," Amman said.
But the turncoat attacks may also reflect growing mistrust and resentment among Afghans working with international forces.
Afghan soldiers interviewed by the AP earlier this year offered their own explanations: The Afghans feel disrespected, the soldiers said. They complained of getting inferior equipment and condescending treatment by Americans.
In May 2011, a U.S. Army team led by a behavioral scientist compiled a survey that indicated many Afghan security personnel found U.S. troops "extremely arrogant, bullying and unwilling to listen to their advice."
"I think infiltration is easier to address, actually," Exum said. "I think the worse thing is, if your entire strategy going forward from the next three or four years depends on partnering with Afghan forces, then if relations have already devolved to this degree, you're really worried."
The U.N. Security Council late Friday strongly condemned coordinated terrorist attacks in various parts of the country on Tuesday and Wednesday and reiterated its serious concern "at threats posed by the Taliban, al-Qaida and illegal armed groups to the local population, national security forces, international military and international assistance efforts in Afghanistan."
Associated Press writers Amir Shah in Kabul, Robert Burns in Washington, Slobodan Lekic in Brussels and Edith Lederer at the United Nations contributed to this report.

text: Description Suggest an Edit The High Trestle Trail (f.k.a. the Ankeny to Woodward Trail) is named for the original railroad bridge that spans the Des Moines River between Madrid and Woodward, on the trail's northern end. This dramatic trestle is a work of art itself: a half-mile long, the bridge rises 13 stories, that's 130 feet, and includes scenic overlooks with spectacular views of the valley below. The 25-mile trail runs between Ankeny, on the outskirts of Des Moines, and Woodward. You can pick up the paved corridor in several places, but a great staging point is Slater. It's the trail's hinge, where you can swing south 12.2 miles toward Ankeny or aim west 12.7 miles to Woodward (or travel nearly 30 miles east on the Heart of Iowa Nature Trail, if you're feeling particularly adventurous). Picking up the High Trestle Trail at Earl Grimm Park, you have two options. If you head south, you'll follow a former Des Moines & Minneapolis Railroadand later North Westerncorridor. Farm fields and farmyards gradually give way to signs of the city. Eventually you'll reach the suburban neighborhoods of Ankeny, about 10 miles north of downtown Des Moines.Alternatively, from Earl Grimm Park (the trail's hinge in Slater) you can also head north and quickly dogleg west, changing rail beds to join part of the old Milwaukee Road. (An equestrian track runs parallel to this section from Slater to Woodward.) Soybeans and corn fields texture the horizon all around you, and on weekday mornings trucks line up for business at grain elevators. But you'll also find plenty of recreational diversions. Delander Park has a trailhead with room for horse trailers. From here, it's only 3 miles to the bridge, where two 42-foot-tall towers mark the east gateway. Veins in the structures, representing seams of coal, pay tribute to coal mining, once a minor industry in the Des Moines River valley. When the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad first built tracks through the area in 1881, the route down to the valley floor and across the river involved steep curvesa treacherous journey for rail cars. Trains had to steam down one side to pick up enough speed to climb back up the other, and several wrecks resulted.In 1912 the railroad finally built a high trestle bridge flat across the top of the valley. More than 60 years later, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers built a new crossing, better able to withstand regular flooding from the new Saylorville Dam. Today, the bridge has been revamped and extends 2,530 feet from end to end. Arcing over the decking are 43 steel "cribbings," each lined with blue LED strips that come on at nightcreating a must-see journey along the trail after dark. Walk through them, and you are bathed in the fluorescent glow; ride through them at 10 mph, and the lights spiral and blur together as though you're plunging deep into a mine or firing into warp drive. It's a surreal passage depicting the geometry and sensation of moving through a mine shaft. The original west abutment from the 1912 bridge has been converted into a lookout area, where you'll find some of the best views of the bridge and river valley. If you want to just experience this section at night, the closest parking lot is on QF Lane. You'll have to walk or ride roughly 0.5 mile down the unlit trail to reach the bridge. Deck lights, as on an airplane runway, guide you out onto the bridge.From the bridge, Woodward is 2.5 miles farther west, where the railroad built a depot and where the High Trestle Trail ends today with a full-service trailhead. Future plans call for the creation of a new trail branching west from Woodward, which would connect with the Raccoon River Valley Trail in Perry. Click to read more Parking and Trail Access The High Trestle Trail is just a few miles north of downtown Des Moines. To reach the southern trailhead from the airport, head north on Fleur Drive and then merge onto I-235 heading east; continue onto I-35 as the highway swings north.In Ankeny, exit and head west onto East First Street (which becomes West First Street). Continue until you pass Southwest Maple Street, then look for the trailhead on your right, under the water tower. For pedestrian access to the bridge overlook, you will find QF Lane about 0.5 mile east of the bridge as you drive on SR 210 between Slater and Woodward (look for the "Trail Access" sign). Head south on QF Lane for a few blocks until you reach a gravel parking lot on your right; you'll know you're there because it's the first right turn after you drive across the paved trail.

Depends what im drinking and how big the glasses are :-P
Bout 5 I reckon to start feeling it
I hope so lol... thanks :-D
I weigh 210 pounds and it takes two drinks for me to feel the alterations within my body. I know, I am so highly sensitized to any exogenous chemicals.
ONE!! I am an easy lush! lol Could it be because I only prefer whiskey or rum!? hahaha
I havent! Might have to see about that sometime. Im a CR, JB and Malibu ;)
Toby Keith's Whiskey Girl...that song is for me lol
Actually i drink very rarely because #1 I am living back in the south and would be condemned to HELL if caught lol AND...because I obviously cant hold my liquor well! lol
Good stuff right there! :)
About 3 pints
4 or 5 - depends on how strong they were!
A bottle of Red Wine and 3 whiskies.
five ounces of store bought.
One or two...
half of one....really, it's nice
3 or 4 (I'm a real lightweight when it comes to drinking)
Yes rum is my fav. (neat or on ice) My go to brand is English Harbour 5 year old rum and my favourite is Mount Gay 1703 Old Cask Selection - 25 yr old. I have a total of 13 sipping rums in my collection.
2 beers feel tipsy and giggly. More then Im drunk. depends how fast drink it. ALSO i hardly drink..so i am sure Id be gone in a short time/.
too funny because that's exadtly what would probably happen..i don't know for sure..but Im not a regular at drinking.
something to blaime..the beer did it..naaah. seriously I think true emotions come out when buzzed..people like to blaime the beer .
It used to take me a couple and then 6 and 1/2 drinks to get me where I really wanted to be. Today I'm clean, sober and in recovery and I dont need a drink to get me high
Thanks :-)
Not nearly as many as it used to.
About 2 Beams on ice and 6 or so beer chasers. Not good.
Whew, life lesson learned there. Guessing that mom was none to happy about it either.
When I was younger a lot, but now with very little drinking I get a slight-buzz (I can feel the alcohol) by my 2nd glass of wine, 2nd bottle of beer, or 2nd mixed drink.
Just a couple...
Depends. Last night before bed, I had a largish glass of Sherry, and didn't even feel relaxed. Usually Beer or wine goes right to my head...but my favorite, Irish Whiskey takes at least two before I feel any effect
well my dear at 58 as many as it takes so I can taste you
I feel a big beer or two cocktails
About a buzzen or so

Another Perspective
Justice Alito Was Right
Against his eight colleagues, he stood in lonely, honorable dissent.
It fell to Justice Samuel Alito the other day to remind Americans how far their culture of liberation has veered from common sense and appreciation of the small decencies that undergird civilization.
On a question of "free speech" -- at its center a claimed right to begrime with taunts and insults the funeral of a U.S. Marine -- the four members of the U.S. Supreme Court's liberal-permissivist bloc weren't likely to find against the jeer leaders. It was the conservative bloc whose behavior startled. Chief Justice John Roberts, Justice Antonin Scalia, and Justice Clarence Thomas went along with the permissivists, in the name of "robust, uninhibited, and wide-open" debate. As if the honored word "debate" applied to placards exhorting onlookers to "Thank God for Dead Soldiers."
Against his eight colleagues, Sam Alito stood in lonely, honorable dissent. "Our profound national commitment to free and open debate," he wrote, "is not a license for the vicious verbal assault that occurred in this case." Alito saw no free speech deprivation in the judgment a district court had levied against the traveling freak show known as Westboro Baptist Church, in Kansas: a gang keener on disrupting military funerals than on preaching the redemptive love of Jesus.
The picketers could have picketed almost anywhere in America, said Alito. Why at the church where the funeral of Marine Lance Cpl. Matthew Snyder was being held? From the claim of free speech rights there was no logical pathway to the intentional infliction of "severe emotional injury on private persons at a time of intense emotional sensitivity.'"
Among the judicial precedents Alito noted was a 1942 case in which the high court called attention to "the social interest in order and morality." That was of course back when American culture accorded order and morality a higher seat in national proceedings than was due trash-talking and narcissistic chest-thumping. The debasement of traditional norms of respect and civility, from the 1960s forward, accompanied cultural grants of latitude to do anything that resembled self-expression: burn a U.S. flag, swear on the air, publish pornography, insult or howl down a speaker.
Daniel Webster crying "Liberty and Union, now and forever," the Westboro wackos proclaiming, at military funerals, God's hatred of "fags" -- both are the same, it seems. Except they aren't. Not according to right reason they aren't.
I trust, after 47 years in the media, teaching and talking and writing, I needn't protest my devotion to "freedom of speech, or of the press," as the Founding Fathers referred to it. I am bound to add that free speech obtained its dignity and cultural warrant through the importance that earlier generations attributed to that "robust" debate praised by the court's 8-1 majority. That "God Hates Dead Soldiers" should be considered an idea on the same plane as "endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights" is further evidence that modern society barely knows up from down.
When I taught journalism at a major university, I thrust Milton's "Areopagitica" in my students' faces. Here! Look! This is what free speech is about -- the quest for Truth! "Give me the liberty to know, to utter, and to argue freely according to conscience above all liberties," Milton had written. Yes! Yes!
Accordingly, we bind ourselves to put up with a fair amount of nonsense -- but not all nonsense, because no morally healthy society accords unlimited living space to the ugly, the twisted, the debased. Perhaps our own society just doesn't know anymore, due in part to Supreme Court tutelage, what real debasement looks like. We might get up a good debate on that topic, assuming the Westboro wackos and their pious defenders could be kept at bay.
Mr. Murchison is completing a biography of the founding father John Dickinson. An earlier version of this column appeared in the Dallas Morning News.

The Golem: How He Came into the World (original German title: Der Golem, wie er in die Welt kam) is a 1920 silent horror film co-directed by and starring Paul Wegener. The picture was directed by Carl Boese and Wegener, written by Wegener and Henrik Galeen, and stars Wegener as the golem. The script was adapted from the 1915 novel The Golem by Gustav Meyrink.[1][2][3] The film was the third of three films that Wegener made featuring the golem, the other two being The Golem (1915) and the short comedy The Golem and the Dancing Girl (1917), in which Wegener dons the Golem make-up in order to frighten a young lady he is infatuated with. It is a prequel to The Golem and is the best known of the series, largely because it is the only one of the three films that has not been lost.
Set in Jewish ghetto of medieval Prague, the film begins with Rabbi Loew, the head of the city's Jewish community, reading the stars. Loew predicts disaster for his people and brings his assistant to inform the elders of the community. The next day the Holy Roman Emperor signs a royal decree declaring that the Jews must leave the city before the new moon. The Emperor sends the knight Florian to deliver the decree. Loew meanwhile begins to devise a way of defending the Jews.
Upon arriving at the ghetto, the arrogant Florian falls in love with Miriam, Loew's daughter for whom his assistant shares affection. Loew talks Florian into reminding the Emperor that it is he who predicts disasters and tells the horoscopes of the Emperor, and requests an audience with him. Having courted with Miriam, Florian leaves. Loew begins to create a huge monster out of clay by praying with God first, the Golem, which he will bring to life to defend his people. Florian returns later with a request from the Emperor for Loew to attend the Rose Festival at the palace. He shares a romantic moment with Miriam while Loew reveals to his assistant that he has secretly created the Golem, and requires his assistance to animate it. In an elaborate magical procedure, Loew and the assistant summon the spirit Astaroth and compel him, as per the ancient texts, to say the magic word to bring life. This word is written on paper by Loew which is then enclosed in an amulet and inserted onto the Golem's chest. The Golem awakes. Loew's assistant then tames the Golem, and the Rabbi uses it as a household servant.
When Loew is summoned to the palace for the festival, he brings the Golem with him to impress the audience. Florian meanwhile slips away from the court to meet Miriam, whose house is being guarded by Loew's assistant under Loew's instruction. Back at the palace the court is both terrified and intrigued by the arrival of the Golem. Impressed, the Emperor asks to see more supernatural feats by Loew. Loew projects a magical screen showing the history of the Jews, instructing his audience not to make a noise. Upon the arrival of Ahasuerus, the Wandering Jew, the court begins to laugh and the palace suddenly crumbles. As the building collapses around them, the Golem intervenes and props up the falling ceiling, saving the court. As a sign of gratitude the Emperor pardons the Jews and allows them to stay in the city.
Loew and the Golem return to the ghetto, spreading the news that the Jews are saved. Loew returns to his house and begins to notice erratic behaviour in the Golem. He reads that upcoming astrological movements will cause Astaroth to possess the Golem and attack its creators. Loew removes the amulet and is called down by his assistant to join in the celebrations in the street. As the community rejoices, the assistant goes to inform Miriam and bring her to the synagogue but finds her in bed with Florian. Devastated, he reanimates the Golem and orders it to remove Florian from the building. But the Golem, now under Astaroth's influence, literally does so by throwing Florian from the roof of the house, killing him. Horrified, the assistant and Miriam flee, but the Golem sets fire to the building and Miriam falls unconscious.
Loew's assistant rushes to the synagogue to alert the praying Jews of the disaster, but upon their arrival at Loew's house they find that it is burning and both the Golem and Miriam are missing. Despaired, the community begs to Loew to save them from the rampaging Golem. Loew performs a spell that removes Astaroth from the Golem. Promptly, the Golem, who is wandering the ghetto causing destruction, leaves Miriam, whom he has been dragging by the hair through the streets, lying on a stone surface and heads towards the ghetto gate. He breaks the gate open and sees a group of girls playing. They all flee except for one, whom he picks up, having developed a docile nature following the removal of Astaroth. Out of curiosity she removes the amulet from the Golem. It drops her and collapses. Loew meanwhile finds Miriam, who awakes shortly after. Happily reunited, they are awkwardly joined by Loew's assistant, who informs him that the Jews are waiting for him by the gate. Loew having left, the assistant promises to Miriam that he will never tell anyone of her forbidden affair with Florian, and asks in return for forgiveness for his actions. The Jews meanwhile gather at the gate to find the dead Golem. Rejoicing and praying, they carry it back into the ghetto, the Star of David appearing on the screen as the film ends.
Wegener had been unhappy with his previous attempt to tell the Golem story (Der Golem, 1915) due to compromises he had to make during its production. This second attempt is meant to more directly convey the legend as he heard it told in Prague while he was filming The Student of Prague (1913).[4]
Architect Hans Poelzig designed the sets, a reproduction of the medieval Jewish ghetto of Prague. He designed them specifically to be filmed, creating highly expressionist imagery. The cinematography of Karl Freund, in collaboration with Poelzig and Wegener, is cited as one of the most outstanding examples of German Expressionism.
The movie was remade in 1936 as Le Golem, which was directed by Julien Duvivier on location in Prague.[citation needed]

I am very impressed with the Western Mountaineering Flight Vest. I believe it is the best vest on the market and the price is reasonable. The loft and down quality are superb and the attention to the stitching detail is very good. Plus my vest was tagged as "made in the USA."

Global warming urban landscapes too real for U.S. officials
RADIO DOCUMENTARY/SLIDESHOW: Artist Anthony Holdsworth, who painted a series of urban landscapes that depicted a future San Francisco flooded by rising seas, was invited to show his work last year inside the new "green" San Francisco Federal Building at Seventh and Mission streets.
But before the opening reception, the show was ordered taken down. He said the image in one of his paintings, of oil burning on a flooded sidewalk in front of the building was too similar to the news footage of the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico for federal authorities to bear.
Undeterred, Holdsworth is mounting a new art show — and he's doubling down on the climate change theme. He is painting pictures of buildings that would be familiar to anyone who has walked the streets of San Francisco and Oakland, and imagining what those streetscapes would look like after sea levels rise and the cities are abandoned.
Listen to Anthony tell us his story while he paints this very picture and as he is interrupted by all manner of friendly folks on the street:
In this radio documentary, "The Censored Climate Change Streetscapes of Anthony Holdsworth," first aired on KPFA Radio in Berkeley, Eric Klein spent a morning with Holdsworth as he worked on one big oil painting, on the sidewalk in downtown San Francisco, as well as a in his studios in West Oakland.

Holdsworth's Climate Change Urban Landscapes is on display now at SFMOMA's Caffe Museo through July 13. More info at www.anthonyholdsworth.com.

That's what I wanted to talk about, they're making shit so predictable right now lol. On that preview for next week, Nikki was talking to Hector about being sexually frustrated haha. It's obvious that Nikki's gonna sleep with Hector, but reject him afterwards- and then he's gonna turn to Gabriella.
Yeah man. You know when the show ends yeah, do you watch the preview for the next show?
Oh my days haha. Did you watch WR?
I guess AJ Lee's going to be bringing home the bacon from now on.
Watch WWE do some bullshit like, "Punk took his ball and went home." next week. I guarantee you that will happen.
Look like CM Punk quit the WWE, Ash. Just read one of Clark's headlines.

PA: Hamas rockets are bid to sway Israeli election
Riad Malki: Hamas doesn't want pro-peace government elected in Israel from fear it will pursue talks.

The Palestinian Authority foreign minister on Monday accused Hamas of trying to influence the outcome of Tuesday's general election in Israel by keeping up the rocket fire on southern Israel.
Riad Malki said Hamas did not want to see a pro-peace government elected in Israel during the parliamentary vote because it would pursue a political deal with the PA, dominated by its rival Fatah movement.
On Sunday, two rockets struck southern Israel, violating an informal Israel-Hamas truce.
Malki told reporters in Warsaw that the PA was very much worried that such attacks might really push Israeli public opinion and the voters to vote for an anti-peace government.
The foreign minister's comments came as polls suggested that Israel's next government could indeed be more hawkish than the current coalition, with the hardline Yisrael Beiteinu Party projected to win more Knesset seats than the left-of-center Labor Party and the right-wing Likud party projected to the be the largest contingent in the Knesset.
The Kadima-led government under Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has pursued peace talks with the Palestinian Authority since the Annapolis Summit in November 2007. The summit, which focused on a two-state solution to the conflict, was meant to relaunch peace talks which had laid dormant since the outbreak of the Second Intifada in 2001.
The talks did not include Hamas, which seized Gaza by force in 2007 and does not recognize Israel's right to exist.
