Warren County 2012: Mourning for Hedgepeth felt from college campus to tribe
Numerous projects designed to take advantage of Warren County's many assets moved forward in 2012.
But attention to those projects was interrupted in September when Faith Hedgepeth, a member of the Haliwa-Saponi tribe, was killed in Chapel Hill, where she was a sophomore at the University of North Carolina.
Hedgepeth was a popular member of the tribe, and very active in it and the Warrenton community. She was also an active student at UNC, where candlelight vigils brought out students by the hundreds.
The sanctuary of Mt. Bethel Baptist Church in the Warren County community of Hollister was overflowing at a memorial service for Hedgepeth, a 2010 graduate of Warren County High School and honor student who participated in many activities celebrating her Native American heritage.
Mourning was widespread, from Chapel Hill to the governor's mansion to the entire northeast region of the state.
In one aspect of economic development, Warren County became a player in the effort to find substitutes for fossil fuels when two solar installations were constructed during 2012.
One solar array, built on the roof of Warren County High School, will generate 475 kilowatts of power. The school system will be paid $175,000 over 20 years. In addition to power and income, the installation will serve instructional purposes for students at the school.
"It has another effect, a psychological effect," said Gabriel Cumming, director of economic development for the county. "It marks Warren County as a place where new and innovative things are taking place, which will attract new industry and business."
Not far away, a 5.6-megawatt solar farm was constructed by Strata Solar on a 40-acre site between Warrenton and Norlina. The power produced by the farm is being sold to Progress Energy.
In both solar projects, a major part of the construction and technical work was handled by local workers and businesses.
Economic development in Warren County reflects the diverse needs of the county. The Triangle North Warren industrial park is being developed as a site for industry. Warrenton Downtown Revitalization is promoted to attract businesses.
The Warren County Economic Development Commission is promoting efforts to capitalize on the county's major asset — land. A Grow Local/Buy Local initiative encourages farmers to sell produce on the local market. In turn, consumers are reminded that buying local products guarantees freshness while simultaneously recycling Warren County dollars within the county.
Working Landscapes, a Warren County non-profit organization, is developing produce packs, which contain locally grown vegetables and fruits packed in dollar amounts that correspond to the vouchers issued by the Women, Infant and Children supplemental nutrition program. Vegetables and fruits are bought from local farmers, packed and marketed in cooperating stores in Warren County.
But Warren County is looking outward also. To offer local products and services to a wider market, the Chamber of Commerce has provided training on the use of the Internet to expand its members' sales opportunities from face-to-face transactions to include a worldwide clientele.

Thoughts from console owners on NVIDIA's GEFORCE GRID
Simple, yet compelling, question. Is GEFORCE GRID going to make consoles obsolete?
Re: Thoughts from console owners on NVIDIA's GEFORCE GRID
I still don't see how they can eliminate the latency involved. A button press on your controller or keyboard still needs to be sent to game servers before it can be processed, while on a console or PC that same button press is registered immediately.
I tried OnLive a little while ago and the experience was not good - the game was always behind whatever I did on the keyboard. The streamed image was also nowhere near as sharp as an image generated on the local PC. It simply didn't work for me. I don't see how these issues can ever be resolved in a 'Cloud gaming' environment. Yes, the servers can be places 'close to major cities' which would improve the latency, but it would still be there. The ONLY way you could get a console-like experience using the cloud would be to reduce to zero the time it took to get user input to the server, and then zero time to compress and send the rendered images to the gamer.
This solution is also no good for gamers who have capped broadband (I'm lucky that mine isn't capped, but many are not so lucky).
So in answer to your question, I would say that it's not going to make consoles obsolete.
The following is my simplistic view of what happens on a console compared to what needs to happen in the cloud. When the user presses a button, what needs to happen before you see the result on your screen.
Console :
1. User presses 'Fire'.
2. Button registered by the game - very little delay.
3. Game processes button and updates game state.
4. Game renders next frame based on result of new game state.
5. Game displays completed frame to the user.
'Cloud' :
1. User presses 'Fire'.
1b. User input sent across the internet to the Cloud - this can take in excess of 30-40ms.
2. Button registered by the game.
3. Game processes button and updates game state.
4. Game renders next frame based on result of new game state.
4b. Server compresses frame and sends across the internet. Will be a 'significant' amount of data if quality is not to be compromised too much.
4c. Frame is decompressed locally.
5. Completed frame is displayed to the user.
In the above very simplistic view, 1b, 4b and 4c are all additional tasks that MUST happen in the order presented above. Yes, multiple frame can be prepared as in double or triple buffering, but this does not help in the case of user 'seeing' the result of his/her actions.
Re: Thoughts from console owners on NVIDIA's GEFORCE GRID
One way to reduce the amount of data being sent from the cloud to a gaming device would be to compress it. NVIDIA is very good at developing complex algorithms to compress different types of data like 3d, video, hpc, etc.
A second method could offer tremendous savings, but is a little harder to code for as it involves calculating net change from frame to frame. Instead of sending all of the data in the frame buffer (pixels) for each frame being rendered, only send the data (pixels) that changed. Some developers code using a net change technique. It's like occlusion culling. There's no need to process objects that are occluded, or hidden, behind other objects.
This type of programming is perfect for processors with a lot of cores like a GPU. It's still very difficult to develop applications that use all of the cores on a CPU. Most of today's apps are still single threaded, but Intel has been bringing new tools to market to ease the burden for developers.
But the bandwidth to process 3d data, with all the driver and in-game graphics bells and whistles enabled on a PC, is staggering - hundreds of gigabytes of data per second - even in parallel. But this processing will be done on their high-performance supercomputers in the cloud.
I'm only throwing out ideas since, to my knowledge, NVIDIA hasn't briefed web sites on the technology behind the grid. But I'd love to test such a system when it becomes available!
Re: Thoughts from console owners on NVIDIA's GEFORCE GRID
I don't think it will anytime soon. Not everyone has fiber optic internet. Latency is the problem here.
If there comes a time where everyone's internet speed is almost instant, then I can see something like this working.
Re: Thoughts from console owners on NVIDIA's GEFORCE GRID
No Not anytime soon. The US is still FAR behind the rest of the world in offering broadband to the population and now with metered bandwidth becoming more coming cloud computing is looking like it will never be really plausible unless these companies strike a deal with the ISPs.
Sorry if anything all this cloud computing talk and remote gaming is dead... The same reason streaming is becoming more endangered because the ISPs are also content providers and if they don't want a service on their pipes they can cut it off, not like there's anyone to enforce fair play.
Re: Thoughts from console owners on NVIDIA's GEFORCE GRID
I agree with the others. This won't happen any time soon.
But I am not completely opposed to a subscription based service, as long as the graphic quality and responsiveness is comparable to dedicated hardware. Currently, that's impossible. But in the next 15-20 years, it may be feasible.
Re: Thoughts from console owners on NVIDIA's GEFORCE GRID
Re: Thoughts from console owners on NVIDIA's GEFORCE GRID
Also in UK broadband isnt upto speed compared to most of Europe such as Netherlands. I myself am on the best available home broadband at 100/10. However ADSL is still quite popular especially in areas were optical broadband is not available. Most ADSL ISP's offer 'upto' 8MB but this can depend on quality of phone line and also the distance from the exchange. My parents are currently on a 'upto' 8MB ADSL and in real world speeds they are lucky if they acheive anything above 2MB with their connection constantly dropping and severe lag...Even web browsing can sometimes be a task.
This is not the only reason cloud gaming will not take off. I have been a gamer since i was able to pick up a joypad and have since collected many games on many platforms....I have never cared for trading games either and have 1000's of pounds worth of retro hardware and games stuffed in the attic. I am not just a gamer, i like many others am a collector and cherish what i buy.
Cloud gaming will be aimed at the casual gamer that are fortunate enough to have decent internet to play it on and i see it being about as successful as the free games that are available on some TV's with Apps. Cloud gaming to take over consoles ? Not in this lifetime....
Re: Thoughts from console owners on NVIDIA's GEFORCE GRID
The original forward-thinking and somewhat positive thread on this subject is located here:
This one will probably be closed. Absolutely no constructive criticim here.
Re: Thoughts from console owners on NVIDIA's GEFORCE GRID
A final relevant post from me on the subject in this forum. Feel free to reply before this thread is closed.
Here's a story from a guy at Seeking Alpha. He's an investor. What the heck does he know about computers and NVIDIA?
Re: Thoughts from console owners on NVIDIA's GEFORCE GRID
Could have sworn i read that twice but only the once lol
Also i don't quite understand what that has to do with cloud gaming, have i missed something ?

Slorkuz weasels his way out of a real answer by saying that this is already possible in game: places like the Gurubashi Arena do let whole groups of people fight each other however they like. He also says that Blizzard has no plans to add any features like this, but he's slightly wrong -- we did get told at Blizzcon that they were going to do more along the lines of Guild vs. Guild combat, if only in the existing BGs. This idea, along with guild housing, is still in the works somewhere, at least.
Of course, with any player interaction feature like this, there is always the opportunity for exploitation -- some players have probably refused enough duel invites in their day without having to worry about any more, and whenever you have someone "speaking" (as in, accepting or rejecting a duel) for a group in terms of PvP, you can run into trouble. But for those who really would like to know whether their guild could beat another guild, or just which raid is better than another one, a feature like this would definitely be welcomed.

Is it dry sounding? Woody?
Ok, enough of that for now, great snare.
Edit: 1500th post WHooo!!!
OK :) Bought it in France (Paris).
I've been living next to Lyon, (South France). I was looking for a brass or a red cooper snare and did not want to spend a lot for a new snare.
Sound is inbetween wood and brass, not so dry and warm to my ears.
I owned a Black Beauty 14*5 and, I'm sorry to say : did not like it at all... sold it ;)
This red cooper snare is just great and you can play whaterver you want.
See ya

How Palestine Became Israel - Deir Yassin Day 2006
Bloomsbury Theatre – Sunday April 9th /Monday April 10th
How Palestine Became Israel, part of the Deir Yassin Day 2006 commemorations, was performed at the Bloomsbury Theatre in London's West End on 9-10 April, and directed by British-Palestinian playwright/director Razanne Carmey and Dan Coleman.
Carmey traveled to Palestine to meet theatre groups from towns, cities and refugee camps, and to run a playwrights' competition, the winner's work to be showcased at DYD 2006.
How Palestine Became Israel was a compilation of four pieces: In Our Own Little World and Friday Morning by Carmey, The Water Urn by Issa Abu Srour, and Far Away from a Nearby Village by Abdel Fattah Abu Srour, who won the playwrights competition.
The production opened to a packed house with Ahmad Masoud and the al-Zaytouna Dabke Group but then, ready (or so we thought) for a nostalgic evening of song and dance, we heard a little more than we had bargained for:
"Ladies and Gentlemen, the members of the Al-Zaytouna Dance Group are from Brouj, Majdal, Deir Snaind and Jaffa but they have never been there. They were born and raised in refugee camps in the Gaza Strip. The reason for this is that their country no longer exists. This is what happened."
And it is with a call to prayer that this story begins. So much of this piece takes place in that hour before dawn. In that hour, members of the family from the Palestinian village of Sindyana reflect on their lives and loves – the joys and sorrows of family life whilst at that same hour, on the other side of the stage the Zionist leadership plans and plots to steal the land. Zionists pore over maps of Palestine and, focussing on the Haifa district, they discuss the village of Sindyana – its past, present and its future and they fix on a name more suitable for that future. Sindyana, they discover, means 'tall oak tree' which in Hebrew is alon, so why not call the new village Alona?
|In the hour before dawn Maleeha writes to her son.....
|While across the stage...the Zionists plan the taking of the landWhile
Thus was Palestine lost.
All this is given hard-edged backing as maps and plans on the one side (we see on the map that ominous transformation of the name Sandyana into Alona) and family snapshots and letters on the other are, by projected images, shared with the audience.
|Assmar el Lone (For She is Dark and Comely)
But it is with the entrance of David Ben-Gurion that this production first goes up a notch. Immaculately played as an irascible, hyperactive trades union official. Having abandoned his Jewish god and now worshipping a new deity – a god of Socialism, collectivism and Zionism - Ben-Gurion is a man who 'knows'. He 'knows' what is best for the workers of the world, he 'knows' what is best for the Jews of Europe and he certainly 'knows' what is best for the Palestinians of Palestine.
Nor need there be any moral obstacles to the Zionist takeover. After all, Zionism must not and will not impinge one degree on the legitimate rights of the Arabs.
….We do not recognise absolute ownership of any country. The only right by which a people can claim to possess a land is the right conferred by willingness to work. Palestine is still undeveloped…..Since the Jewish labourer is more intelligent and more diligent than the Arab, then the land is ours.
How convenient, and in this beautifully drawn character of Ben-Gurion we see the whole semi-conscious, self-delusional morality of the entire Zionist enterprise ….and its inevitable moral collapse.
Act One closes and the darkness looms. A young wife bewails her miscarriages whilst Ben-Gurion and his comrades bemoan that, after nearly sixty years of building the Jewish state, the Jews are simply not coming.
Where are the Jews? Where are the Jews? Why don't they come? We're creating a Utopia here! Where are the Jews?
The hard truth is that in order to secure the necessary two-thirds Jewish majority they need to lose one million Palestinians, but how?
Don't be coy. We all know what must be done…We need a few massacres – highly publicised, newspapers with stories of death, rape and burning. As soon as you shoot a few in the village square – that's how you empty a village.
Perfect. No-need for an order. When the soldiers are hot enough there's need for an order.
So now massacre is the order of the day. Friday Morning, scripted by Razanne was first performed five years ago at Deir Yassin Day 2001. Set in the village of Deir Yassin itself, a father is led outside his home to be shot whilst his wife and child sing Wain A Ramallah to drown out the sounds of his execution.
Shocked, we prepare for the climax: an animated image of the march of ethnic cleansing across Palestine. As the map steadily turns pink, Arab Palestine turns into Jewish Israel, accompanied all the time by flashing pinpoints of light - each of the seventy known massacres making its own special contribution to turning Palestine into Israel. And for a soundtrack, jazz musicians Gilad Atzmon and Yaron Stavi step onstage to improvise an agonised Wain A Ramallah - that happy-clappy song used first at a family party, then to drown out the sounds of an execution and finally now to accompany the Palestinian people in their long journey into exile.
Now all that is left are bedraggled refugees moving across stage recounting their tales of horror on their road to exile. A mother from Beit Natteef has lost her two sons, an old man takes a sprig of fig tree to remind him of the smell of home, and a young woman carries her dead baby girl in her arms insisting she's still alive:
My daughter cannot die now to be buried on the road of exile. She cannot be put in a grave on a nameless road? How can I come and visit her tomorrow?
That night I thought back on all that I had seen. One scene kept coming back to me - a dramatization of an incident from the memoirs of Yitzhak Rabin. Some Haganah commanders go to see Ben-Gurion in his office. They've captured some towns and villages and they don't know what to do next. "Prime Minister," they ask, "What is to be done with these people? Without a word Ben-Gurion stands and, with a sweep of his hand he gives them their answer and their orders.
Sitting in that audience and watching Ben-Gurion consign an entire people into exile reminded me of an old Jewish story: A man goes to his rabbi. "Rabbi, how can I believe in the Holy Books? After all, they tell us things like Moses raised his hand and the waters of a mighty sea parted. Who can believe such nonsense?" "Listen", says the rabbi. "Just one week ago the Czar with his pen signed a decree clearing out the inhabitants of some Jewish villages to make way for a new railway. Perhaps in days to come people will say 'With one drop of ink, the Russian Czar drowned a thousand villages.'"
So will Palestinians perhaps one day, when telling their children of the Nakba say how, with but a wave of his hand, a Jewish captain drove one million Palestinians from Palestine? Who knows? But one thing is for sure: the Jewish narrative has, for years, been used and abused in the service of Zionism and of Israel. It has long been the role of Deir Yassin Remembered, now joined by Deir Yassin Day, to piece together and tell a truthful and meaningful Palestinian narrative. Deir Yassin Day 2006 and the performance of this remarkable play How Palestine Became Israel did just that.

"Training mode" requires a restructuring of a casual life…obsession must take hold. Part of this change involves products that aid us on the journey of soreness and fatigue caused by repetitive workouts and long hours on the run. Running is a relatively low cost sport (unless you travel to races in far away places), but we love any gear that get us through the tough moments. Sometimes discovering such things as 'freezing your Gatorade the night before a long run on a hot day' can be a revelation. But more often, it's the discovery of 'a running bra that doesn't chafe' or 'a recovery drink that you can no longer live without' that brings momentary bliss. My children refer to these as "mom's new running thing" when they discover them on a counter or in my running cubby. Training for the San Francisco marathon has begun and although some of these items have been resurrected (partially tested from another training session), these are my favorites of the moment (we are affiliates for some of the products listed below, however, we only recommend products that we personally use and enjoy):
1) KT tape : I have been using this on my foot and knee as I got back into training. I no longer need it on my knee, but continue to use a strip of it each day on my foot. On the site it claims: Supports sore or injured muscles, joints, and tendons without restricting motion like compression bands or wraps. KT Tape is like a brace, but better, and even more comfortable to wear.
2) This Wooden Foot Massager sits under my desk and really seems to loosen my foot muscles as I work. I just slip off my shoe and roll the heck out of the inside fascia. It really feels good…I mean, hurts so good:)
3) Nuun natural hydration Gogi Berry/Green Tea tablets: I add these tablets to my water when working out or after a run for the vitamins and electrolytes without the calories. I like the light taste and appreciate that I can keep the tablets in my bag and just add to my bottle of water.
4) Trader Joe's Almond Butter with Roasted Flax Seeds on crusty whole wheat bread, Trader Joe's Simply the Best Trek Mix and roasted and salted almonds from Wegman's. All becoming staples in my pre and post run meals.
5) The music playlist my husband made and loaded onto my ipod. I like it for workouts and weight training…gets me going. I just recently tried it on the track and loved it's motivational vibe.
6) My Newtons: I love these shoes. They feel good on my feet and light in my training. I just purchased my second pair of trainers (wish they were a little less expensive-ouch!) but feel like they have been great for my injured feet. I must add, however, that whenever there is an update on ones favorite running shoe you hope it's a tolerable color combo (as we do not choose our shoes for their color). But whomever designed the newest women's stability trainer might have been on something. The bright lime green laces with glittered green logo (and I am a fan of glitter) have elicited many comments…most referencing clowns.
7) The Under Armour Form Tank is my new favorite running top. It's long so it covers the tummy but the fabric is light. Love the stylish back. I wore it for the oppressively hot Broad Street run and it really kept me really dry. They also have it in black but I love this pink…

Cisco Systems this morning announced a deal to acquire Cloupia, a Santa Clara, California-based cloud software company that "automates converged data center infrastructure," for $125 million in cash and retention-based incentives.
Cisco said Cloupia's infrastructure management software will enhance Cisco's Unified Computing System and Nexus switching portfolio with a single pane-of-glass view into the automation of compute, network, storage, virtual machine and operating system resources.
The deal is expected to close in Cisco's fiscal second quarter ending in January.

All the remaining platforms put together could only equal Android's 2.3% market share (which was down from 2.9% in the previous quarter). The firm predicts a higher share for Android during the fourth quarter as more models - including the Samsung Galaxy Tab - hit the market.
Neil Mawston, director at Strategy Analytics, said "The tablet wars are up and running. Apple has quickly leveraged its famous brand, an extensive retail presence and user-friendly design to develop the tablet segment into a multi-billion-dollar global business. Android, Microsoft, MeeGo, webOS, BlackBerry and other platforms are trailing in Apple's wake and they already have much ground to make up."
It can be argued that Apple was the first company to design a tablet that people actually wanted to buy, and now that a model has been established other vendors will be able to chip away at its lead. But with the market growing so rapidly (26% from 2Q to 3Q10), a company in Apple's leading position can afford to lose share yet still increase unit sales and profits. The trick is to lose share sufficiently slowly to avoid being seen as becoming irrelevant.
Another issue is that according to Strategy Analytics, the US "was by far the world's largest tablet market during the quarter", and Apple has traditionally been strong in its home market. Other brands may benefit from the building demand in Europe and Asia.
But there's another reason for expecting iPad sales to remain strong - see page 2.

This is one of my fave restaurants in the city! The food is spectacular and absolutely delish!! Amazing bread with ricotta and warm tomato sauce, insane meatballs, shrimp, gnocchi...could go on and on!! The service is attentive and friendly but not annoying. Great date spot or for a quiet, cozy dinner with friends.

Could not believe this place was on the lower east side. The decor had a wonderful trendy atmosphere. The three sat in the wine bar which was cosy. The waiter was very attentive. I had the skate which was cooked to perfection with a lemon caper wine sauce. My friend had the gnocci which were light and fresh. The octopus salad was heaven as was the mushrooms with polenta. Very satisfied with the meal and the wine.

I went to Apizz this weekend thought it was truly great. We were a table of four, the restaurant was packed but the service was very attentive and our waitress gave us helpful suggestions on the menu. The food was creative, fresh & delicious. All in all, a perfect dinner. We will definitely go back.

Loved the food and atmosphere. I highly recommend the polenta. The wine list was resonable. Service was polite and helpful, but somewhat lacking for this price range. Courses were well spaced out. Overall a very nice dinner. Will definitely return.

Its a cute space. A little more sophisticated for the LES and nice atmosphere. I was disappointed because I heard it was sooo good.... and it wasnt. The food was nice predictable but definately not special and in my opionion far too oily. BUT the real issure was the service. So slow it was ridiculous. Forgetful waiters who seems half asleep. Took ages to be seated. Ages to get water, ages to get bread, ages for the mains to come... and had to ask 3 times for the check... I came, saw, but i wouldnt go back. so many better places in NYC. sorry guys

Don't mess around...get the meatballs. They are fantastic. Waitstaff was great and accomodating as we showed without a reservation. $100 dinner without tip, included a bottle of wine, 2 entrees, starter and 2 capucinos. A new favorite.

By Gerry J. GilmoreAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Dec. 11, 2007 Taliban attacks have picked up this year, but the Afghanistan-based insurgent group is nonetheless growing weaker, the senior U.S. military officer told a congressional committee today.
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Navy Adm. Michael G. Mullen told U.S. House Armed Services Committee members that earlier this year he'd predicted a resurgence of Taliban attacks. However, Mullen acknowledged, he was only partially correct.
"Though the Taliban has grown bolder in recent months, particularly in the south and the west, they've lost a significant number of their leadership and failed to fully reassert themselves, reverting instead to terror attacks, thuggery and intimidation," Mullen said.
Consequently, overall violence is up in Afghanistan by about 27 percent from a year ago, including a significant increase in suicide attacks, Mullen reported.
In southern Afghanistan's Helmand province, violence is up more than 60 percent, Mullen said. Al Qaeda and foreign terrorists, supported in some cases by Iran, are contributing "to the deadly mix," the admiral said.
Yet, Mullen reported some good news from Afghanistan.
"Six years after the fall of the Taliban, most Afghans still see that overthrow as a good thing," Mullen said. Nearly 75 percent of Afghans polled say they support the U.S. prescense in Afghanistan, and most want peace and stability for their country, he added.
Provincial reconstruction teams operating in Afghanistan "are having a real impact on the quality of thousands of lives," Mullen said. Six times as many children are in school across Afghanistan today, compared to six years ago, he noted. And almost a third of Afghanistan's 6 million students are girls, Mullen added.
Some U.S. legislators want to reassess the U.S. strategy in Afghanistan, Mullen said, noting he hasn't made up his mind about that yet. However, Mullen told the committee that he's convinced that U.S. and coalition efforts in Afghanistan constitute important work.
"It is important, critical work and it must continue," Mullen said of ongoing military and reconstruction operations in Afghanistan.
Democracy had been relatively unknown in Afghanistan, Mullen pointed out. "We are sowing seeds of freedom in unaccustomed soil," the admiral said.
U.S. decision makers must be patient and realize that U.S. operations in Afghanistan are being conducted under resource constraints, Mullen said.
"Our main focus militarily in the region and in the world right now is rightly and firmly in Iraq," Mullen said, emphasizing that the efforts provided by U.S., coalition and Afghan servicemembers serving in Afghanistan are no less valued, important or supported.
It is simply a matter of resources and capacity, Mullen said.
"In Afghanistan, we do what we can. In Iraq, we do what we must," the admiral said.
This is why it remains critical that NATO, which assumed responsibility for Afghanistan operations in October 2006, continues "to lead and to lead well," Mullen said.
Afghanistan now seems to be experiencing "a classic insurgency" that requires a well-coordinated counter-insurgency strategy that touches upon military, diplomatic, political and economic realms, Mullen said.
Mullen praised NATO's International Security Assistance Force for "stepping up to the plate" in Afghanistan. However, the ISAF in Afghanistan "is plagued by shortfalls in capability and capacity and constrained by a host of caveats that limits its ability," he said.
Caveats are restrictions some nations place on how their troops can be used. The admiral urged NATO's members "to do all they can to fulfill the commitments they have already made, completely, and with as few conditions as possible."
Ultimately, real, enduring success in Afghanistan will be predicated on the progress of the Afghan government and its people, Mullen said. Some $7.4 billion in spending approved by Congress for Afghanistan this year went toward training and equipping of that country's soldiers and police, Mullen said. But because fast-growing Afghan army and police forces are straining training resources, the admiral said, he is monitoring the situation closely.
Afghan soldiers are taking the lead in more and more anti-insurgent operations, Mullen said. However, there's been less success with the Afghan National Police, he acknowledged, as that force suffers from training deficiencies and corruption. Training police forces is a skill that not too many countries do well, Mullen explained, and he said there's a long way to go get Afghanistan's police up on their feet.
U.S. troops in Afghanistan are performing a vital, important mission, Mullen said.
"We know and we remember the great sacrifices being made by each of the over 26,000 soldiers, sailors, airmen, Marines and civilians deployed there, as well as their families, who so steadfastly support them," the admiral said.

ELIZABETHTON — One man was killed early Tuesday morning and another man suffered serious injuries when a car crashed into a sign pole at Milligan Grocery at the intersection of the Milligan Highway and Okolona Road.
The Elizabethton Police Department said the passenger, Tanner Perkins, 20, Elizabethton, was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver, Micah Cates, 20, also of Elizabethton, was transported to the Johnson City Medical Center and remained hospitalized at press time.
Police, fire and rescue squad units were called to the scene shortly before 2 a.m. Investigators reported the men were in a white 2002 BMW car that had gone off Milligan Highway and crashed into the sign pole that held a large sign displaying the brand of gasoline sold and the prices for the various grades. The impact broke the sign into pieces and the pieces fell out of the frame and onto the ground.
Speed was a contributing factor, but it was unknown at this time if drugs or alcohol were involved, according to a police department news release.
Capt. Joyce Markland of the Criminal Investigations Division said the investigation is continuing and no charges have been placed during the early stages.

This is the ground plan of Epping Union Workhouse in Essex. The workhouse could house 220 persons. Inmates were segregated into various groups and were separated from the opposite sex. The men's yard was apart from the women's yard, and boys had a separate yard to girls, despite the fact that many residents were from the same families. There were workrooms for the adults and a schoolroom for the children. The washing rooms were next to the receiving wards to make sure that new inmates, who may have been considered vagrants or tramps, were clean.
The new Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834 set up a strict system of poor relief. Responsibility was transferred from the parishes to the new district Boards of Guardians. Parishes were grouped together into unions and new, more efficient workhouses were built. The system was supervised by a national Poor Law Commission. The aim was to reduce the growing cost of helping the poor.

One reason for the male-only priesthood is very straightforward and (should be, anyway) uncontroversial. Jesus Christ was a Man. Given the fact that every validly-ordained priest functions as an alter Christus at Mass (since it is Christ Himself who transforms the elements and performs the supernatural consecration, not the priest, who "stands in" for Him), it is altogether appropriate that men only are ordained. Of course we also have clear instructions and examples of Scripture which ought to be sufficient in and of themselves to settle this question. None of the twelve disciples were women. Jesus must have had a good reason for that, whether or not we understand it. I myself would much rather trust Him and apostolic, Christian Tradition, rather than the fads and fancies of our post-modern, sexually-libertine age.
The Greatest, Most Exalted Creature
The highest of God's created beings, and the only sinless creature who ever lived - according to Catholicism - is a woman (the Blessed Virgin Mary), and a woman first saw the risen Jesus (Mary Magdalene: John 20:11-18). No man - by virtue of "unfair" biology - ever had the immense, unfathomable honor of "bearing God" (Theotokos) and thus entering into incomprehensible biological intimacy with Deity. Protestants give us misery for allegedly venerating Mary as next to God, while feminists excoriate us for lowering the status of women vis-a-vis men! Ironies never cease!
God gave the Blessed Virgin Mary the special grace of sinlessness and removal of original sin (the Immaculate Conception). Now if He could do that for her, why not me too? I've been treated unfairly!!! Not only that: whether or not I get such special treatment, at least God could have caused Joseph or Paul or David or Moses to be without sin. This is so unfair! Why did us men have to be created so unequal and inferior to women? If women get to have a created Co-Redemptrix and Queen of Heaven as a "role model," why can't we men have one of our kind in such a lofty estate? Jesus doesn't count because He is the Creator, not a creature like us.
{NOTE: The above is an example of argumentum ad absurdum, which - however zany - is dead serious in intent and absolutely relevant to the subject at hand}
There is no notion of inequality involved in a male-only priesthood, since if that were the case, it is neither likely nor plausible that God would raise Mary to her supremely exalted state (i.e., as a creature). If anything - in light of that fact - it might be stated that Christianity teaches the superiority of women, not men (which tends to be my own thinking - I think women exceed us men in many, many ways).
And - even beyond the Blessed Virgin - there are plenty of women role models in Catholic history to look up to and emulate: St. Teresa of Avila, or St. Catherine of Siena (who rebuked popes), or St. Therese of Liseux, or St. Clare, or St. Hildegard of Bingen, or Mother Teresa, or Dorothy Day, or Blessed Edith Stein, or Deborah, Esther, Ruth, and many other biblical heroines. Theological and sexual liberals often appear to look at things as if they were a matter of social psychology, rather than the biblical and Christian theology of creation and spirituality: ultimately the mystery of Christ and His Church.
Role Differentiation is Not Inequality
There is no inequality here whatsoever (e.g., Gal 3:28). If women are unequal to men in orthodox (i.e., Nicene and Chalcedonian) Christianity of whatever stripe, then Jesus is not equal to the Father, since He subjected Himself to the Father (Phil 2:5-8) and even to Mary and Joseph (Lk 2:51). The Holy Trinity is a very apt analogy because it offers a clear example of an equality which nevertheless includes (by its very nature) subjection and differential roles - exactly analogous to marriage and male ordination. Thus, radical feminism logically leads to heterodoxy with regard to the Holy Trinity, or else undue skepticism towards the Bible. That's why sexual and theological liberalism are so closely allied - it is no coincidence.
God could have made my nipples produce milk like my wife's, so I could have the "equality" and closeness and "maternal bond" of nursing my 2-month-old baby son like she does. But He chose not to and I accept His wisdom in that. He also could have not only called all to the priesthood regardless of gender, but saved all, if He had so chosen, without having to take on flesh and thus subject Himself (in His Human Nature) to the limitations of human beings. Jesus chose to be "unequal" to the Father (Phil 2:6-11). Perhaps we should protest that inequality ought to be stamped out even in the highest levels of heaven? Away with the suffering Messiah and the "oppressed" Jesus, who is being exploited by the Father?
"Maleness" and "femaleness" mean much more than mere possession of certain genitalia. Rather, they are complete roles and ontological realities created by God. It isn't orthodox, traditional Christians who are hung up on maleness; rather it is the "gender radicals" who favor women's ordination. We are quite content to accept the fact that God came to earth as a Man and taught His disciples and recorded in His inspired Revelation that only men ought to be ordained, just as He gave Mary the unfathomable honor and privilege of bearing God and serving in a sublime way as a Co-Redemptrix and Spiritual Mother.
Many feminists would assert that men and women are different physiologically, yet not in any other way They are supposedly exactly the same, except for the sexual element, where they are simply "yin and yang," "positive and negative," etc. But God has informed us differently as to "ontological difference": 1 Pet 3:7, 1 Cor 11:3,7-9, 1 Tim 2:12-14, Eph 5:22-25. God said it (through the Apostles Paul and Peter), not me.
Second-Guessing God
Perhaps "unisexists" object also to the fact that God the Father chose to become incarnate in a male body? Maybe God should have come as a sexless eunuch or a woman? And on what basis can mere fallen human beings (of either gender) question the will and wisdom of Almighty God? I'm sure many of this mindset justify their views by the questioning of Holy Scripture (either its content, or its faithful manuscript transmission). But in this instance, I'm not aware of any scholar, however unorthodox, who denies that Jesus was a Man! The Church of Christ can't call someone who isn't given a certain gift and vocation - by virtue of God's will and "spiritual ontology," so to speak, any more than it could call me to bear a child and suckle it after birth. This "unisexist" mentality is in outright denial that there is an ordained, God-created and -willed, ontological difference between men and women. As such, it directly challenges divine prerogatives, and as such, must be fought against and refuted at all costs.
Jesus and Women
In the course of one of my online dialogues, my discussion opponent asserted that Jesus didn't choose women disciples because he knew women wouldn't be accepted in that period by the Jews. I responded as follows:
I don't consider this a "perfectly good reason." It is sheer speculation and nothing more, with no biblical support. Since when did Jesus care a whit about what the Jews would think of His actions and teaching, anyway? No one can observe His constant battles with (and rebukes of) the Pharisees and conclude that He had any thought of conforming His ideas (i.e., Truth) to their pet beliefs and "golden cows." Furthermore, why would Jesus forgive an adulteress publicly (Jn 8:1-11), speak to the Samaritan woman at the well (Jn 4:4-29), accept financial support from several women (Mk 15:40-41), let women anoint His feet with their hair (Jn 12:1-8; Mt 26:6-13) and first see Him resurrected, etc., if He was at all worried about the "acceptance" of women among the Jews?
Jesus wasn't bound by pragmatic and "peer pressure" considerations, as so many of us are. He clearly treated women as equals to men, so that if He intended for them to be ordained like men, it is altogether plausible to assume He certainly would have made that teaching publicly also. The Pharisees objected to all these things just as much as many vainly imagine that the Catholic Church wants to "keep women out" of the priesthood out of bigotry and chauvinism rather than obedience to God's decrees.
Then my friend said that Jesus (or His disciples) was also waiting (as with women) for the right time to introduce Gentiles into the Christian fold. I answered:
He was the Jewish Messiah, for Pete's sake! In any event, we already see Him speaking favorably to and about the Roman centurion (Mt 8:5-13) and in the same passage and elsewhere obliterating the Jew / Gentile distinction. He started with the Jews because they were the Chosen People and that was the milieu in which He was born. They were the ones who had been prepared by God for centuries to understand even what "Messiah" meant - not the Gentiles. Then Peter shortly after the Resurrection actively seeks out Gentiles after receiving instructions from God. This is no parallel to women's ordination, by any stretch of the imagination.
Serious Exploitation: Women and the Sexual Revolution
Most women have succumbed to the self-serving male notion that they must "give it up" and engage in sex before marriage. In so doing they have yielded up their most precious asset: themselves and their most intimate "secrets." Men now expect virtually all women to "put out" relatively early in relationships (and women have tragically bought into that, thus making themselves "objects" even more so). In the Christian view, it was assumed that women would "hold out" this "reward" for the man who would renounce his passions in exchange for love and the long-term benefits accruing from a committed, lifetime relationship. Men are certainly habitually (and characteristically) guilty of having alterior motives when it comes to getting to know women (yes, sex, of course). The sexual revolution has only greatly exacerbated that immemorial problem for women.
Just my own "sociological" opinion (meant to place the lion's share of the blame on men, not women). All the sexual revolution amounts to, in my opinion, is the mass "buying into" (on women's part) the traditional, older-than-the-hills exploitative sexual tactics of men. Once women were hoodwinked by that, I believe many of our current societal woes became inevitable. Certainly people aren't happier because of this so-called sexual "liberation." That much is certain . . .
Also, it is noteworthy that many surveys have shown that practicing Christian couples (say, who go to church every week, etc.) have a considerably more fulfilling sex life than their secular counterparts. Of course, this is shocking to many, but doesn't surprise me in the least, as I believe the Christian view of marriage is the route to the most satisfying sexuality. I believe God knew what He was doing when He set up the "ground rules" for sexuality, and that He had our happiness and true "liberation" in mind, not our "bondage" and "repression," as the anti-Christian, anti-traditional stereotype goes.
George Gilder, in his magnificent book Men and Marriage (Gretna, LA: Pelican Pub. Co., 1986) - one of the most profound I've ever read - says that the foundation of civilization is this "pact" between a man and a woman. The man gives up his sexual passion temporarily in exchange for the love and commitment of one woman, and the woman in turn gets protection, an assurance that her husband is trustworthy, security and adoration in exchange for "sexual favors" (in marriage, of course).
We've seen the fruit of the opposite "sexual revolution" viewpoint: broken hearts and homes, abortion-on-demand, shattered lives, illegitimacy, STDs, more rape (including "date rape"), more child abuse, more sexual perversion, pornography, child molestation, wife-beating, crime and drugs resulting therefrom, sexual harassment, etc. ad infinitum. Sounds wonderful, doesn't it? Who would dare to assert that this is a better, happier, "sexual world" than the one which was cultivated by the Christian Church for multiple hundreds of years? The greatest irony is that studies have consistenly shown that practicing Christians have a far more fulfilling and rewarding sex life than their "wild" counterparts who fell for the lie of "try before you buy."
Another lie is the unbridled pursuit of materialism by many women (I'm not saying that they should never work outside the home - which would be ludicrous), thus falling prey to one of the shortcomings that men have traditionally labored under (no pun intended).
I think that there is a growing realization on all sides that the world of "liberalism," libertinism, moral relativism, and so-called "liberation" and "(sexual) freedom" has not turned out to be the Utopia which was foolishly hoped for. And us Christians knew this full well all along, of course, but cultures invariably have to learn the hard way - that's one of the things history teaches us. People never change. Sexual chastity was just as difficult in times past as it is now. The difference is that now we have the sanction of liberal religion, saying that several or all of these things are now okay (i.e., calling evil good), because we are now "progressive" and "enlightened."
The current chaos and wholesale destruction of the family and moral values, is largely due to faulty views of sexuality and marriage. The alarming breakdown of the black family is a case in point. What survived slavery could not survive the "Great Society," presumptuous, elitist social (albeit well-intended, I grant) planning and the sexual revolution....
Who will argue with a straight face that the post-Christian society we now have is in any sense morally, institutionally, emotionally or spiritually superior to what preceded it? If someone has, I would love to see it. Have men habitually dominated and brutalized women? Of course. But the traditional Christian view of women is the best thing that ever happened to them. Some examples of the lack of same: in ancient Rome (and I believe, Greece), the husband basically "owned" the wife, as if a slave, the utter subordination of Muslim countries, the self-immolation of widows in Hindu cultures, aborting of female babies in China (sex selection abortion) and also forced abortion, the routine clitorectomies of Africa. Even in ancient Israel (e.g., according to the rabbinic school of Hillel), a wife could be sent packing at a moment's notice, for something as trivial as making lousy dinners. It took Christianity to radically change all these hideous, grossly unjust practices.
The Catholic Church is "Behind the Times" (Thank God!)
Then the charge was made that "Rome" was slow to recognize feminine equality, while many other denominations are "enlightened" and therefore do ordain women. I replied:
For how long have these other "branches" ordained women? And why did they wait so long? Did they need the "illumination" of radical feminism and the sexual revolution to "wake up" and "see the light?" Are we now in a sufficiently-enlightened age to finally grasp what sexual liberals and feminists apparently think is self-evident, while ages past were hopelessly regressive and "primitive?" It is the height of arrogance and folly for any of us moderns, with multiple hundreds of millions of dead in our century and enough slaughtered pre-born children to fill up Yankee Stadium to the brim, field and all, to wax eloquent about our "progressive" understanding of men and women!
It is utterly implausible to think that a century as corrupt and evil as ours (hence, Communism, Naziism, and abortion as the quintessential examples of this, just as slavery and genocide of the Indians were in the 19th century) would be the one to discover these moral truths which sexual liberals consider so self-evident. It just doesn't make any sense. Of all the twenty centuries since Christ, we are the ones to discover the "truth" that men and women are essentially no different from each other (or that abortion is morally permissible), and that virtually all Christians previously were dolts and chauvinists, who couldn't see that women ought to be ordained?!!!
The Contraception Connection
Similarly, the Anglicans allegedly discovered "normalcy" and "orthodoxy" with regard to contraception in 1930 (the first Christian body ever to have done so)? England in 1930 - of all places - a country in the throes of spiritualism, rising agnosticism and cynical skepticism, Fabian socialism and head-in-the-sand pacifism, was the environment where Christians shook off the yoke of unanimous Christian Tradition and figured out at long last that contraception is okay?! Whatever the truth is, it can't be that!!! Some theories and ideas are just too vacuous and inane to merit any credence at all.
Contraception and abortion flow from radical feminism, which presupposes the nonexistence of inherent gender differences (another cause is men's selfish, self-serving desire for free, ultimately manipulative sex without consequence). Broadly and sociologically speaking, the same mentality produces the call for women's ordination. So these ideas at least share a common parentage (in terms of history of ideas). One must necessarily take a long historical view in order to see the connection. But it is assuredly there. The traditionalist has a vastly different perspective than the so-called "progressive."

At the Washington Post, Chris Cillizza makes an argument that although 2012 isn't going to be anything like 2008, President Obama still has an edge over Mitt Romney in the swing states that will decide the election. While the numbers do give Obama a slight advantage, as RealClearPolitics' Electoral College map indicates, the triumphalism about the president's re-election we've been hearing lately from Democrats is more the product of bombast than insight. Stunts like the Democrats' attempt to promote myths about the Republican "war on women" aren't likely to change that map. More to the point is the fact that the states that will determine the winner are likely to be influenced heavily by an economy that few outside the administration and liberal editorial pages believe has been turned around.
There isn't a lot of doubt about which states are up for grabs this November. Nor is there much uncertainty that the battle for the White House this year will more closely resemble 2000 and 2004 than President Obama's romp four years ago. The outcome will, as Cillizza rightly understands, depend on whether the voting patterns of the last few elections will be re-written by dissatisfaction over the president's uninspiring performance in office.
As Cillizza states, there is not much argument there are nine swing states that should be in play this fall: Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Virginia and Wisconsin–comprising 110 electoral votes. He points out that Democrats would include Arizona, Indiana and Missouri, adding 32 votes to the total of those in doubt even though none of them have a history of abandoning the GOP. Republicans would include Michigan, Pennsylvania and New Mexico, adding 41 to the swing state total, but only New Mexico has gone for the GOP even once in the last generation.
If none of those flip this year, that leaves us with the nine swing states and because as Cillizza points out, Obama carried all nine in 2008, he must be considered to have an advantage.
The only problem with this reasoning is that a poor economy that can no longer be blamed on the Republicans leaves Romney an opening. Each state is a different story. In New Hampshire, Romney may have a regional edge. Virginia may revert to Republican form after deserting the GOP for the first time in decades last time around. Wisconsin may be influenced by the outcome of the Scott Walker recall effort that is itself a referendum on the 2010 Republican midterm victory. The point is there are still too many variables and far too much time until November to list any of these pure swing or semi-swing states in either column.
With the GOP contest now all but concluded, the general election is about to begin. President Obama enjoys the enormous advantage that comes with incumbency as well as Camelot-style press coverage that has largely eschewed the personal attacks that dogged the re-election efforts of all of his recent predecessors. But until we know whether the economic state of the union on September 1 is such to inspire confidence in an Obama rerun, coloring any of the states up for grabs any shade of blue or red is a mistake.

The nose landing gear of a Southwest Airlines Boeing 737-700 collapsed up and into the forward fuselage during a 22 July accident on landing at LaGuardia Airport, the US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) says.
The agency's first statement from the scene of the crash of Flight 345 also notes that the collapsed gear damaged the electrical equipment bay located beneath the flight deck.
The fuselage also sustained damage from sliding 663m (2,180ft) with the nose gear collapsed down runway 4, the NTSB says.
Investigator-in-Charge Dennis Jones is just beginning the board's investigation of the accident. Both the flight data recorder and the cockpit voice recorder have been shipped to the NTSB's laboratory in Washington DC for analysis.
Jones' investigative team also will conduct interviews with crew members and witnesses of the crash, which occurred at 17:45 following a 1h51min flight from Nashville, Tennessee.
The NTSB now says that nine people received minor injuries, or one more than confirmed on 22 July by Southwest Airlines.
Southwest Airlines has confirmed that the 14-year-old aircraft was last inspected on 18 July.
