Ok so here we are...a dating site. A little scary but here goes. I am a true Floridian. Born and raised in St. Pete. All of my family and closest friends live here so I've just never left. I'm laid back and low key. I prefer flip flops to heels and you can find me in a bathing suit most of the time. Don't get me wrong, I do clean up nice just prefer beach bars to night clubs. I like to live more of a slow pace life and enjoy the little things around me. I love to travel and see new places I also love to camp and go "off grid" from time to time. My passion in life is riding horses. Not a requirement for a partner just maybe a willingness to want to learn. If you're scared, don't worry, I won't force you to ride. But you're missin out! I am very close to my family and would like to find someone who has that same closeness with their family. I also love to spend time with my friends whether it be a camping trip or just cards and BBQ. My ideal partner would be laid back, open minded, caring, fun, and intelligent. I love a guy who can teach me something. If you think that is you, give me a shout!

The perfect mixer
Best Uses
I've seen reviews that have stated this unit leaks oil, it can't handle pizza dough or the unit rocked so violently while making pizza dough the user thought the unit was going to break. I made a double batch of pizza dough today, I used low speed per the instruction manual, it made it up my dough lickety split, no leaks....no rocking....no problems. I love this mixer!!! I had another mixer made by a manufacture that has been around for several decades and it couldn't hold a candle to this mixer. If you need a sturdy mixer that requires little to no attention from you while you are mixing this is the perfect unit.

The only complaint that I have is I ordered this model off of Amazon's website and their colors of blue willow and cobalt blue were different than they were on Kitchenaid's website. I assumed Kitchenaid's website would have the true color on their color pallet, not true, at least regarding the two colors mentioned here. Amazon's pallet are more accurate, Kitchenaid has the colors reversed.

The height and weight make it difficult to store. I did notice these stats prior to buying the unit but I felt it was worth mentioning. I guess you need the height and weight to keep the unit balanced and stable.
How long have you owned it:
A month or less
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

Leaked Oil
Even Mixing
Continued To Leak Oil
Difficult to Store
Best Uses
Cakes & Cookies
Within a year or two of purchasing the mixer, it began to leak small amounts of oil into the mixing bowl between uses. I used my mixer 5-7 times a year. KitchenAid told me the machine could lose up to a quarter of a cup of oil. The oil leakage continued, so I gave the machine away and bought a hand mixer.
How long have you owned it:
More than six months
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Right Size For Handling
Works Quietly
Best Uses
Cakes & Cookies
I bought the newest stand mixer 6 quart glass bowl about 6 months ago but it was hard for me to handle (a bit of arthritis) so the retailer graciously swapped it out for the 5 quart Artisan which is perfect for me. The first thing I made was Easter Bread. I used the dough hook and it came out great. With the tilt head I like the easy removal of hooks and how easy it is to clean underneath the head. I also like the way the bowl locks in the bottom with a slight turn of hand. The bowl is not heavy so its easy to move off the mixer and handle even if batter is in it. I like this mixer better then the newest 6 quart glass bowl I sent back to the retailer. The head did not tilt back which made cleaning harder underneath after you removed the hook. Also on the newer model you have to hold the (very heavy) glass bowl press to back and lock and then anchor it over a bolt on each side. I had a hard time lining it up. I was so happy to send it back and get this Artisan 5 quart bowl. I also called Kitchenaide and they said this model sells the most even over the 5 qt glass bowl. I was skeptical when I bought this Artisian 5 quart. I thought it would be hard to handle as the new model but I was so surprised and I can't say enough of how well it operates,handles and cleanup is a breeze. I highly recommend this particular stand mixxer for older and younger folks.
How long have you owned it:
A month or less
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

'Django Unchained' star Leonardo DiCaprio to receive Santa Barbara's American Riviera Award
The Santa Barbara International Film Festival has announced that "Django Unchained" star Leonardo DiCaprio will received its American Riviera Award.
It's a nice bit of recognition for one of the film's more dynamic performances. Christoph Waltz has received the bulk of the precursor awards attention, owed plenty to his co-lead status, while DiCaprio and co-star Samuel L. Jackson have been largely ignored. DiCaprio did, however, pick up an early prize from the National Board of Review.
"We are thrilled to be honoring Leonardo DiCaprio with the American Riviera Award, in a year where he has shown us another layer of his immeasurable talent," festival director Roger Durling said via press release. "His performance in 'Django Unchained' reaffirms that he is the most relevant actor of this generation."
Previous winners of the award include Martin Scorsese, Annette Bening, Sandra Bullock, Mickey Rourke and Tommy Lee Jones. The event will take place on February 1 at the Arlington Theatre in Santa Barbara.
The Santa Barbara International Film Festival runs January 24 - February 3.

I have been thinking of repairing my fathers old Braun Hobby flash. So far I havent found the model, but it had a 4V Sonnenschein battery in it.
Was the battery charged simply by plugging a cord to the power pack or was there a charger? Is it possible to run the flash directly from AC-cord with out a battery?

Restaurant owners say the exemption plays favorites and could push customers away from businesses that are not exempt.
The Indiana Senate has never passed a smoking ban out of committee. Politicians say this year's bill has bipartisan support.
Why this may be the year the measure finally passes the Senate.
The bill originally exempted the gaming floors of gambling facilities, cigar and hookah bars, tobacco shops and social clubs.
The latest proposal would have exempted some private clubs from the ban.
Legislators on both sides of the aisle say they will have to compromise if they want to pass a smoking ban in Indiana.
Smoke Free Indy is trying to convince the Indianapolis City Council and mayor to pass a tougher smoking ban before Super Bowl visitors arrive.
Research shows some campus-wide smoking bans have powerful positive effects, even when they're not enforced.
The smoking rate in Indiana has decreased by 23% dropping from 27.4% to 21.2% from 2001 to 2010.
E-cigarettes have fallen through the cracks of FDA regulation because they're not considered drugs.

Originally written on NESN.com | Last updated 4/6/13
The Bruins and Canadiens battled through seven games back in 2011 before Nathan Horton's overtime goal in Game 7 sent the Bruins on to the next round. They went on to win the Stanley Cup that year, of course, making Horton's heroics a regular thing throughout the course of the team's run to the Cup final. Horton's goal against the Canadiens rings true especially as the B's search for that clutch gene against the Habs this year, having fallen to their rivals more often than not. Still, Boston will always have 2011. Re-live Horton's goal in this Captain Morgan Legendary Moment.

Climate change is expected to disrupt ecosystems by changing insects' and other organisms' life cycles in unpredictable ways -– and scientists are getting a preview of these changes in cities. NC State University research shows that some insect pests are thriving in warm, urban environments and developing earlier, limiting the impact of parasitoid wasps that normally help keep those pest populations in check.
In fall 2013, Dr. Dominic Reisig got a phone call from a farmer in rural Hyde County. The farmer was growing corn, and it was literally falling apart in the field. What was going on? Reisig, an entomologist at NC State University, is a sort of science detective who specializes in insects that pose a threat to crops. And the farmer had presented him with a mystery.
N.C. State University Extension Specialist Dominic Reisig wants to find a way to keep growers with kudzu bug problems out of the "spray continuum." So he and his colleagues from South Carolina and Georgia will use a $168,644 U.S. Department of Agriculture Southern Regional IPM grant to find out why kudzu bugs leave their home in kudzu patches to move to soybean fields.
Through a 4-H-public schools partnership in Transylvania County, Brevard High School sophomores Abby Williams and Carly Onnink conducted the type of research that professors says they expect to find in a university laboratory. Their topic: kudzu bug pheromones.
Preserving international forests, providing food security and addressing issues of global climate change will require a coordinated effort, Frances Seymour, former director of the Center for International Forestry Research in Indonesia, told an audience at N.C. State University's 2013 Borlaug Lecture. And before the lecture, College of Agriculture and Life Sciences entomologist Dr. Fred Gould received the Borlaug Excellence in Service to Society and the Environment Award.
Doctoral student Ann Carr is hard at work developing ways to attract ticks so that the general population can avoid them.
Under the direction of Department of Entomology professors Dr. Charles Apperson, Dr. Michael Roe and Dr. Coby Schal, Carr recently discovered that two chemicals – acetone and ammonium hydroxide – attract high numbers of the tick species Amblyomma americanum. The development of this chemical cocktail could open new doors for the screening and management of tick populations in North Carolina and beyond.
National award-winning Ph.D. student Diane Silcox is developing biological solutions with economic savings for managing damage from the hunting billbug, a relatively new pest in North Carolina's warm-season turf.
Dr. Fred Gould, William Neal Reynolds Professor in the Department of Entomology, is one of two North Carolina State University faculty members named to the Board on Agriculture and Natural Resources, a major program unit of the National Research Council.
Humans aren't the only species with a sweet tooth. N.C. State University researchers and Extension specialists have found that the invasive spotted-wing vinegar fly (Drosophila suzukii) also prefers sweet, soft fruit. Their study sheds new light on a species that has spread across the United States over the past four years and threatens to cause hundreds of millions of dollars in damage to U.S. fruit crops.
A new invasive pest from Asia likes fruits and berries as much as you do. A Cooperative Extension entomologist at is working to stop the hungry fruit fly, or at least slow it down. Read more in N.C. State's Bulletin.

ELDORADO, Texas - Child welfare officials have now removed nearly 200 women and children from a secretive West Texas religious retreat built by polygamist leader Warren Jeffs, authorities said Saturday.The investigation began after a 16-year-old living there complained of physical abuse. A search warrant authorized state troopers to enter the retreat run by the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and look for evidence of a marriage between the girl and a 50-year-old man. The warrant said the girl had a baby eight months ago, when she was 15. State Child Protective Services on Friday removed 52 girls from the compound. Marleigh Meisner, a spokeswoman for the agency, said that another 131 residents were removed overnight and that by Saturday afternoon 137 children and 46 women were being housed and interviewed. 'They seem to be doing fine,' Meisner said. Four investigators remained inside the polygamist compound looking for additional children. The whereabouts of the young mother who sparked the investigation are unknown, Meisner said. State troopers who raided the religious retreat were looking for the girl, her baby girl and 50-year-old Dale Barlow. Under Texas law, girls younger than 16 cannot marry, even with parental approval. Barlow had not been found by Friday night, officials said then. They declined to comment Saturday, saying a state judge had issued a gag order. The search warrant instructed officers to look for marriage records or other evidence linking the girl to Barlow and the baby. The warrant authorized the seizure of computer drives, CDs, DVDs or photos. Those inside the retreat did not respond to requests for comment. The Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints broke away from the Mormon church after the latter disavowed polygamy more than a century ago. The compound sits down a narrow paved road and behind a hill that shields it almost entirely from view in town. Only the 80-foot-high gleaming white temple can be seen on the horizon. Authorities blocked access to the gate, keeping onlookers miles away. The 1,700-acre property had been an exotic game ranch. It is surrounded by dusty, wind-swept land where sheep are raised and mohair produced. Eldorado is a two-stoplight town of fewer than 2,000 people nearly 200 miles northwest of San Antonio. It consists of a cluster of government buildings, a couple of churches and a few blocks of houses. State officials said they did not know how many people lived at the retreat, although local officials estimated about 150 two years ago. The group, known by the acronym FLDS, has been led by Jeffs since his father died in 2002. In November, Jeffs was sentenced to two consecutive sentences of five years to life in prison in Utah for being an accomplice to the rape of a 14-year-old girl who wed her cousin in an arranged marriage in 2001.

Help! Monitor distortion
I have the Samsung SyncMaster S23A700D 120 Hz monitor and the EVGA GeForce GTX 560 Ti 448 Cores Classified graphics card.
Sometimes, when the monitor wakes from a sleep (not the computer but only the monitor; I don't let the computer go to sleep), the image is distorted. I have to turn off the monitor and then turn it back on and the image will be fine. If I printscreen when I have distortion and paste it in Paint, the image is fine and correct.
I have latest monitor drivers installed and the latest graphics cards drivers installed too. However, I've also noticed distortion, sometimes, when I first turn on the computer and see the BIOS POST screen. Turning the monitor off and back on fixes the issue.
Is this a monitor issue or something else? If the monitor remains on, there is no issue.
Re: Help! Monitor distortion
One more thing. Sometimes, if the monitor is fine during the BIOS post screen and the Windows loading logo, as soon as Windows loads there will be distortion. Again, turning it off and back on fixes the issue.
Re: Help! Monitor distortion
Can you describe a bit more what you mean by "distortion"?
A picture would be best, but a good description is at least required...
Re: Help! Monitor distortion
It is usually really bad that I can't read what it on the screen. Weird colors and blockiness. Sometimes, it will be only exactly half of the screen that is distorted while the other half will be fine. More often then not, it is always the right side that is distorted and the left side is fine. I've never seen the left side distorted with the right side fine. I've also seen the whole screen distorted. I can't really describe what is looks like because it's hard. I'll try to get a pic next time.
Re: Help! Monitor distortion
maybe video card is moving on to the next world?
Re: Help! Monitor distortion
Do you have another computer on which to try the monitor? Or another monitor to plug into the same graphics card? That should tell you which one is dying.
From what you've explained though, it does sound like a monitor issue (turning it off and on cures the problem).
The other thing is that the cable that connected the monitor to the graphics card could be 'marginal'. If you are using DVI and you also have an analogue cable and DVI-analogue adapter, you could try the monitor through its analogue port and see if the issue changes. Those DVI-analogue adapters usually come with graphics cards, so you might have one somewhere.
Good luck!
Re: Help! Monitor distortion
Such distortion are often the result of either bad synchronization or bad HDCP handshake.
I'm afraid there is not much you can do against that.
Check if there would be any firmware update for either the graphic card or the monitor (rare) and check your video idle settings. Maybe the way your card goes to sleep/sends blank screen can do a difference?
Re: Help! Monitor distortion
Okay, I haven't tested the monitor on another computer but my monitor was fine since I made this thread till today. Today the distortion occurred again. The monitor woke from a sleep, the whole screen was scrambled (like a bad signal on a TV), then after a second or two the left side was fine and the right side was readable but the colors where off (as if it was running only 16 colors). Turned off the monitor and turned it back on and it was fine. Note that this didn't happen since I made this thread till today.
Could it be bad RAM? Would bad RAM cause something like this or would bad RAM make the monitor distorted regardless of whether or not you power-cycled the monitor? I got a BSOD few weeks ago where the stated cause was the RAM. I haven't gotten another BSOD again though.
Re: Help! Monitor distortion
If you power cycle the monitor and it fixes it, then I would say the monitor is the problem. RMA it.
Re: Help! Monitor distortion
And team New Zealand wins this round.
Re: Help! Monitor distortion
Re: Help! Monitor distortion
Here is a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJeBx1cB5m4
Sometimes, when my monitor wakes from a sleep, half of the screen will be distorted. I noticed, when I made this video, that if I open the Internet browser, the screen will be fine but only the parts of the screen exposing the desktop will be distorted (top most and bottom most of the browser window). But then, if I watch a video in full screen in the browser, half of the screen will be distorted again. If I turn off the monitor and then turn it back on, the distortion will be gone. Does this sound like a monitor issue, a graphics card issue, or something else?

Why has the British Ministry of Defence Tried to Ban Its Own Book on Afghanistan?
Why has the British Ministry of Defence Tried to Ban Its Own Book on Afghanistan?
By Matt Carr
Global Research, April 17, 2014
Matt Carr's Infernal Machine 13 April 2014
Attempts by democratic governments to ban books rarely work out well. If the book is banned on grounds of public morality (Lady Chatterley's Lover, Tropic of Cancer), then the writer nearly always wins in the end and the government that tried to suppress their work is likely to end up looking puritanical, cloven-footed and often pig-ignorant.
If, like Peter Wright's Spycatcher, the book is banned on 'political' or national security grounds then it is immediately going to attract a great deal more media interest than it might otherwise have done, so that if one publisher drops it another is likely to pick it up. When the Thatcher government tried to ban Spycatcher under the Official Secrets it ended up looking ridiculous and impotent when the book was published abroad – even in Scotland – for three years before the ban was lifted, so that anyone who wanted to know what was in it could find out.
Rather than silencing books, such efforts tend to generate more curiosity about them. And attempts at censorship and prohibition are almost guaranteed to attract attention when a government tries to ban a book that it has commissioned itself, as was the case last week, when the Ministry of Defense attempted to block the publication of An Intimate War – An Oral History of the Helmand Conflict 1978-2013, on the grounds that it breached the Official Secrets Act.
What makes this effort so extraordinary was the fact that the book was written by Dr. Mike Martin, a former captain in the Territorial Army, who was commissioned three years ago by the army to write a study of British military operations in Helmand. That study became a Phd dissertation, which the MoD has had in its possession for 14 months. Yet it is only in February that it raised objections to its content, to the point when Martin resigned his ten-year commission in order to be able to publish the book.
To its credit, Martin's publisher Hurst & Co has gone ahead with publication, even though it was reduced to handing out flyers instead of hardbacks at the presentation of his book at Kings College London last Thursday. I should confess at this point that I have a dog in this hunt. Hurst is also my publisher, and I am proud to be associated with a company that has refused to buckle in the face of such idiotic and ham-fisted official pressure, which shames the army and the British government.

Legal or Illegal? The 2001 US-British Attack on Afghanistan. Never Got the U.N. "Green Light"
Legal or Illegal? The 2001 US-British Attack on Afghanistan. Never Got the U.N. "Green Light"
By Ian Sinclair
Global Research, April 08, 2014
Morning Star
The Twitter equivalent of a bickering married couple, Times newspaper columnist David Aaronovitch and Huffington Post Political Editor Mehdi Hasan, recently alighted on a point of agreement during one of their regular Twitter exchanges.
The US/Nato invasion of Afghanistan was "UN-sanctioned," they both said.
But are they right? With British forces formally handing over the military command of Helmand to US forces, it seems a good point to look at the legal status of the bombing and invasion in October 2001.
Written in 2010, the official House of Commons Library briefing paper on the subject provides interesting reading:
"The military campaign in Afghanistan was not specifically mandated by the UN, but was widely (although not universally) perceived to be a legitimate form of self-defence under the UN Charter."
The paper goes on to explain that Article 2(4) of the UN Charter prohibits the "threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state."
The accepted exceptions to this are where the security council authorises military action or where it is in self-defence under Article 51 of the Charter.
As the paper alludes, the UN security council did not authorise the military attack on Afghanistan.
Furthermore, there is reason to believe the US and Britain's citing of Article 51 is suspect too.
Writing a month into the invasion, Marjorie Cohn, a professor of law at California's Thomas Jefferson School of Law and a former president of the US National Lawyers Guild, described the US and
British attack as "a patently illegal use of armed force."
The bombing was not a legitimate form of self-defence under Article 51 for two reasons, according to Cohn.
First, "the attacks in New York and Washington DC were criminal attacks, not 'armed attacks' by another state." Indeed, as Frank Ledwidge argues in his new book Investment In Blood: The True
Cost Of Britain's Afghan War, "the Taliban certainly were not aware of the 9/11 plot, and equally certainly would not have approved even if they had been."
Cohn's second criticism is that "there was not an imminent threat of an armed attack on the US after September 11, or the US would not have waited three weeks before initiating its bombing campaign."
Michael Mandel, professor of law at Osgoode Hall Law School, is in agreement on the latter point, arguing: "The right of unilateral self-defence does not include the right to retaliate once an attack has stopped."
Even if one were to agree the West's attack was legitimate under Article 51, the House of Commons Library paper notes proportionality is central to the use of force in self-defence.
"It may not be considered proportionate to produce the same amount of damage" as the initial attack, the paper notes.
Writing in November 2001, Brian Foley, professor of law at Florida Coastal School of Law, maintained "these attacks on Afghanistan most likely do not stand up as proportional to the threat of terrorism on US soil."
Having undertaken a systematic study of press reports and eyewitness accounts, Professor Marc Herold from the University of Hampshire found more civilians were killed during "Operation Enduring Freedom" than died on September 11 2001.
Moreover, the House of Commons Library briefing paper inadvertently highlights the crux of the issue.
"The USA might conceivably have gained specific legal support from the security council for its action in Afghanistan, but in the end did not seek such a resolution."
With much of the world standing in sympathy alongside the US, why didn't the US try to get UN security council authorisation for its attack on Afghanistan?
"An immediate need after 9/11 was to recover imperial prestige swiftly and decisively," argue Sonali Kolhatkar and James Ingalls in their book Bleeding Afghanistan: Washington, Warlords And The Propaganda Of Silence.
Speaking just after the bombing had started, the anti-Taliban Afghan resistance leader Abdul Haq concurred with this reason for the attack.
"The US is trying to show its muscle, score a victory and scare everyone in the world."
The last thing a nation attempting to "recover imperial prestige" would want to be seen doing is asking the United Nations for permission to act — a sure sign of weakness to the watching world.
The likely illegality of the 2001 attack on Afghanistan remains one of the biggest secrets of the so-called "war on terror."
No overt censorship is needed, just an intellectual culture and corporate-dominated journalism that has — often heated — discussion within a narrow set of factual and ideological boundaries.
But while it is perhaps right to be forgiving of those who lost their critical faculties during those days of high emotion immediately after September 11 2001, how should we judge the ignorance of two award-winning journalists repeating the official deception 13 years later?

OPINION: Afganistan remains a dismal country after 12 years of Western occupation. A United Nations report finds that it is once again becoming a narco-state, with a huge rise in opium poppy cultivation. Corruption is rampant. The Karzai Government controls only a small part of the country. Torture is widely used. The Western intervention in Afghanistan, in which New Zealand played an important role, comes to a dismal end.
The invasion of the country after September 11 was justified and New Zealand was right to back it. The Taliban Government was sheltering Al Qaeda, the terrorist group which had committed the outrage in New York. The United States and its Western partners were justified in responding.

NZ to maintain support as Afghanistan mission transitions
Thursday, 19 December 2013, 10:12 am
Press Release: New Zealand Government
Hon Murray McCully
Minister of Foreign Affairs
Hon Dr Jonathan Coleman
Minister of Defence
19 December 2013
Media Statement
NZ to maintain support as Afghanistan mission transitions
New Zealand will maintain its current level of support for international efforts in Afghanistan until December 2014, the Government says.
Twenty seven New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF) personnel are currently deployed in behind-the-wire roles based in Kabul, including at the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) headquarters, ISAF Special Operations Forces headquarters, and Afghan National Army Officer Academy (ANAOA).
"The Government has reviewed the mandate for these deployments, which is due to expire next April. Our 27 personnel will remain in Afghanistan to December 2014 to support the final stages of the ISAF mission," Defence Minister Jonathan Coleman says.
The ISAF mission will be replaced by a training, advice and assistance mission.
"As previously announced, a small number of personnel are expected to remain at the UK-led Afghan National Army Officer Academy (ANAOA) in roles focused on training assistance and capacity building beyond 2014," Dr Coleman says.
Foreign Affairs Minister Murray McCully says New Zealand's work in Afghanistan is business as usual.
"New Zealand remains committed to fulfilling our role as part of the ISAF mission to secure the gains made in Afghanistan over the last decade.
"New Zealand will continue to make financial and development contributions to Afghanistan. The nature of those contributions has not been finalised."
Endless Occupation? Afghanistan To Have US Troops Indefinitely? Security Agreement Draft Leaked
Endless Occupation? Afghanistan To Have US Troops Indefinitely? Security Agreement Draft Leaked
By The Inquisitr
November 20, 2013 "Information Clearing House – Afghanistan may not be seeing a full withdrawal of US troops soon, as many had expected. A newly obtained US-Afghanistan security agreement draft suggests that US forces will stay for much longer than originally expected, possibly indefinitely. The draft includes an agreement for US military outposts and bases to remain in Afghanistan through 2024. It also shows plans to fund and train a great number of Afghan security forces.
The security agreement draft was obtained by NBC News, as they reported Tuesday. The unsigned 25-page document is dated to July 25, 2013 and appears to be a working draft. Titled the "Security and Defense Cooperation Agreement Between The United States of American and the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan," its details range from being very specific to rather unclear.
The draft is set for review and discussion between some 2,500 officials, academics, and village representatives in Kabul this week. While the panel, known as Loya Jirga, does not have authority to make an agreement, Afghanistan's president Hamid Karzai says he will not sign the treaty without their approval.
News of this security agreement draft comes on the heels of statements made recently by Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Army General Martin Dempsey, Bloomberg reports. On Monday he said that while a "ubiquitous presence of US military force" is not necessary in Afghanistan post-2014, the country "can't live without any." Dempsey says a US and NATO presence will be needed to maintain Afghanistan's security and to guarantee foreign aid money is not being exploited.
The high ranking military official's remarks back up indications that the Afghan security agreement draft seeks to allow US troops to remain in country indefinitely. NATO has already said that around 8,000 to 12,000 troops could stay in Afghanistan after 2014, not including security guards or counterterrorism forces.
The newly leaked treaty draft, as it is written, would go into effect in 2015, after the end of the current mission in Afghanistan. It also says the deal would be in effect through 2024 "and beyond." While there have been concerns over several details in the draft, NBC News says an update circulated among Pentagon staff and Congress on Monday addresses these issues.
Signing of the the Afghanistan security agreement will likely not happen for another two months, as it must be approved by the Afghan parliament and president.

Kiwi soldier wounded by 'insider attack'
Last updated 14:10 27/10/2013
Defence Force commander Lieutenant-General Rhys Jones has given more details on the Kiwi soldier shot in the foot in Afghanistan yesterday.
Speaking at a press conference, Lieutenant-General Jones said the Sergeant was with two Australian troops returning from a visit to a neighbouring Afghan army unit around 9am Afghan time yesterday.
Without warning, an Afghan soldier shot at them and hit one of the Australians in the chest.
Lieutenant-General Jones said the Australian's body armour shattered the bullet and a piece of shrapnel hit the New Zealander in the foot.
The Afghan shot three times in quick succession, then began to advance towards the group. The other Australian soldier shot and critically wounded him.
"We don't know of that is killed or just critically injured at this stage," Lieutenant-General Jones said.
The New Zealander was a member of the Afghan National Army Officer Academy support team.
The New Zealander was treated at the scene and then airlifted to Craig Hospital at Bagram Air Force Base, where he received further medical treatment.

Afghanistan: 12 Years of Occupation – "Down with the US Invaders and their Afghan Stooges!"
By Revolutionary Association of Women of Afghanistan Global Research, October 08, 2013 Revolutionary Association of the Women of Afghanistan (RAWA) – See more at: http://www.globalresearch.ca/afghanistan-12-years-of-occupation-down-with-the-us-invaders-and-their-afghan-stooges/5353471#sthash.vOeViyi9.dpuf
With the aggression of the US and NATO occupiers on October 7, 2001 in our homeland, it has been twelve years now that our country is facing war, destruction, and the killing of thousands of its innocent civilians. The US used the terrorist attacks of 9/11 as a pretext to change the regime in Afghanistan and pave the way for its long-term military presence in the region. For the first time in their history, Afghanistan's people, who were tired and fed up from the crimes of the Jehadi pigs and the brutalities of the Taliban, did not react to an occupier force.
The US government and its allies promised our people democracy, but imposed upon them the most undemocratic, corrupt, and mafia government of our history; they spoke of 'war on terror' but brought the murderers and terrorists of the Northern Alliance, gun-lords and drug kingpins to power, and have now extended their hands in friendship to the Taliban; the US used human rights and women's rights as an excuse, but Afghanistan still faces the worse kinds of human rights violations and horrifying catastrophes against its women; they promised our people liberation and freedom, but practically turned our country into a narco-state and the center of their longest-running criminal war.
From the very start, the democratic forces of Afghanistan and peace-loving elements of the world had recognized the US's war in Afghanistan as part of its imperialist policies. They announced that that this superpower was only invading Afghanistan to compete with its emerging contenders and was cementing its military bases in the heart of Asia towards this purpose.
Twelve years of our country's occupation proves the validity of this prediction. In these years, not only did the justice-seeking people of the US and world protest against the war, but a significant number of soldiers also stood up against their government's inhumane and hypocritical policies, and started a vast and glorious anti-war movement.
The people of Afghanistan soon noticed the false nature of the US and NATO's 'war on terror', when against their demand, the criminal Taliban terrorists were replaced with the misogynist terrorist gangs of the Northern Alliance. In addition to providing staunch support to the Jehadi and technocrat traitors, the US has taken the service of a group of intellectual sellouts, and have created a band of lackeys out of them by stuffing Dollars down their filthy throats. If in the past, being on the payroll of a foreign country was seen as treachery and disgrace, today this group has become so shameless and devoid of conscience that they proudly flaunt off their servitude to the US and other foreign intelligences. Karzai and those surrounding him, confessed, in an unseen blatant fashion, that they took bags of Dollars from the CIA, Vavak, MI6, RAW, ISI and others, and branded them as 'useful' so that their masters would continue pouring in money. The so-called Jehadi leaders have also tied themselves on the leashes of foreign countries and continue to demolish our country at their orders. This way, Afghanistan has practically become the battlefield of the intelligence services of superpowers and neighboring countries. The threat to our sovereignty and national assets grows with each passing day.
After bringing calamity upon Afghanistan and its people, the US informed the world of the withdrawal of its forces in 2014, and started a widespread propaganda that without the US presence, Afghanistan will sink into crisis and a civil war. With this false propaganda through tens of media channels, the US is manipulating and threatening the public sentiment, and trying to get the puppet Karzai government to sign the strategic pact – which would guarantee the US's long-term presence – as soon as possible. All the reactionary forces and a group of mercenary intellectuals know that their very existence depends upon this pact and are begging for it to go through, so they can escape our people and the claws of justice under the protective wing of their military master.

A US-led airstrike has killed at least 16 Afghans, including eight women and children, in the eastern province of Kunar, officials say.
According to the provincial governor, 16 people – 12 of them civilians – lost their lives in the strike. Among the victims are four children and four women.
The latest deadly US-led drone attack occurred in the Watapur district of Kunar Province, which lies near the border with Pakistan.
A NATO spokeswoman, however, said that only enemy forces were killed in the operation.
The aerial attack comes one day after at least four people lost their lives in two separate airstrikes by US-led foreign forces in Afghanistan's central province of Wardak.
Civilian killings at the hands of US-led forces have been a source of tension between Kabul and Washington in recent years. The attacks have also increased anti-American sentiment among Afghans, who hold regular protests to condemn them.
The United States and its allies invaded Afghanistan in October 2001 as part of Washington's so-called war on terror.
The offensive removed the Taliban from power, but insecurity continues to rise across the country, despite the presence of thousands of US-led troops.
