Voting is a constitutional right that American citizens eighteen years and older can freely exercise. The Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA) covers all active-duty members of the Uniformed Services and their families, members of the merchant marine and their families, and US citizens who reside overseas, and assists them in exercising their right to vote.
If you are on active duty stationed in the United States, you can vote in the state in which you reside or choose to vote absentee in your home of record state. It's your choice where your vote.
Elections are managed individually by all 55 states and territories but the basic steps to vote are simple:
- Register to vote at www.fvap.gov and this site will walk you through the process of choosing the appropriate state and completing the appropriate registration paperwork.
- If voting absentee, the state-level election official approves/disapproves the Federal Postcard Application or requests additional information. If the application is approved, the election official sends you an absentee ballot in the mail and often an email reminder.
- If voting absentee, you vote on the ballot and return it to your state-level election official via mail by the state's deadline.
Remember: The FVAP.gov Web Portal is Your 2012 Election Resource

The What: WWE Friday Night SmackDown is a professional wrestling television program for World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) that is currently airing on MyNetworkTV in the United States. The show's name is also used to refer to the SmackDown brand, in which WWE employees are assigned to work and perform on that program; the other programs and brands are Raw and ECW. And that, junkies, is about the most corporate description we could borrow from wikipedia ever. The When: Fridays 8-10PM Eastern on My Network TV & WWE HDOfficial Site: http://www.wwe.com/shows/smackdown/
There's been a lot of controversy over the look of Destro's mask in the upcoming G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. Fans and baby crows alike are concerned that it just won't be shiny enough. Well, you can set those worries aside. UGO received an exclusive first look at a drawing… of the toy… based off the actor… playing the role of the cartoon. And here it is: I'm confused as to why they would model him after Marcia Cross though. Look at these shiny morning headlines… Todd Phillips hires Zach Galifianakis for his next two projects.

JENNIFERS BODY SFW Trailer – Watch more Movie TrailersOn Monday, we posted ShockTilYouDrop's Red Band trailer for Jennifer's Body, and today, the theatrical trailer was released online. This one's noticeably tamer and free of Diablo Cody's trademark "Diablogue" like the soon-to-be-meme, "Smells like Thai food in here. Were you guys f**king?" We're guessing if Fox had allowed a permutation of that line in thisSFW version, it would go something like, "Smells like Thai food in here. Were you guys cooking Thai food?Here are today's top links that make you feel like you do while you're smelling Thai Food:Amanda Pogrell In Scant Clothing (Gorillamask) A Brief History Of Ruined Photos And Photo Bombs (Holytaco) Ricky Gervais Makes Fun Of Ralph Fiennes (Filmdrunk) 20 Freakishly Large Animals (Manofest) A Totally Awesome R2D2 Trashcan (Walyou) Classic Trailer Appreciation: Dodgeball (Pajiba) 7 Classic Star Wars Characters That Totally Dropped The Ball (Cracked) I Guess Creepy Dudes Like Ruining Photos In Japan (Sickpigs) What To Do If You Win The Lottery (Coedmagazine) Miley Cyrus Is Trying To Get You Arrested (Celebjihad) Worst Cars For Picking Up Chicks (Mademan) A Guide To Helping You Win Money From UFC 100 (Cagepotato) What Celebrities Would Look Like If They Moved To Oklaholma (Unreality) 3 Videogame Movies Hollywood Is Going To Eff Up (Asylum) Erin Andrews Takes Ball Off Chin (Bustedcoverage) 15 Awesome Pictures Of A Very Young Beatles Group (Uncoached) Elevator Episode: "Scars" (Elevator) 5 Landmarks In The Evolution Of Animated Porn (Regretfulmorning) Grilly Goat Proves To Be Useful Grilling Accessory (Bachelorguy) Photos Of Denise Milani Never Get Old (Moondogsports)
Friday marks the release of two "major" films, and both of them star celebrities who have lusted after Milo Ventimiglia. I Love You, Beth Cooper tells the story of an unrequited high school crush. Brüno tells the story of… well, you've seen Borat right? It's like that, but with different accents and a lot more butt sex jokes. But here we are in the middle of July with not a single cat fight. Even Mariah Carey is playing nice with Janet Jackson! So, we went ahead and charted out the Diva War, blow by blow, to determine who'll be box office champion of the weekend! Actually, it's pretty obvious Brüno's gonna sweep the floor with Hayden's alabaster locks, but let's give each side a fair shake.Here you are, the scientific breakdown of each person's worth (sums it up well):
Don't worry, dearest readers. we've once again combed through the listings to bring to you the bestest, mostest interestingest television viewing options for the evening. Unless, of course, you're into Samantha Who? and Grey's Anatomy. In which case, what the mother-effing eff are you doing here? Go read Holy Taco… girl.FIND OUT WHAT TO WATCH AFTER THE JUMP…
You remember the little girl from Remember The Titans? Yes you do. Don't you sit there and lie to me. You know damn well you watched that movie and said to yourself, "That girl is gonna be hot someday." Then you said, "Is that weird of me to say that? Does that make me a pedophile?" And the answer is," Don't look now, but Chris Hansen is standing behind you."Regardless of your deviance, we can all agree that Hayden grew up from this…All the way into this very attractive and very legal woman. In honor of Miss Panettiere starring in I Love You, Beth Cooper this Friday, let's follow her career path starting with her breakout role and see how Hayden's… ahem… developed. "HEROES"
FUNNY PEOPLE Red Band Trailer – Watch more Funny Videos Here we have the red-band trailer for Judd Apatow's Funny People. In this release they've taken the focus off all that cancer/dying bidness in order to focus on the jokes. And, well… honestly the stand-up in this clip is a little weak. I'm really hoping that the filmmakers are saving the best punchlines for the film itself because I really want this movie to be great. Unfortunately right now I have to agree with that humorless German at the trailer's end. Sorry. "Humorless German" is a redundant term. Check out this morning's top headlines… Megan Fox is all teeth. (Dread Central) Cameron Diaz is considering Green Hornet role. (EW) Syfy wants to bring Quantum Leap back(ula). (Pajiba) Larry King don't believe in no ghosts.

Seems we have a hankerin' for purée de ballsack today, because this 8-minute clip from The Hurt Locker popped up on Hulu not too long ago and we couldn't resist posting it. If you haven't read our review of the film – currently in limited release – AND you enjoy verbal fellation, bone up here. The above opening scene sets the anything-goes tone but doesn't quite do the theatrical experience justice. Word to the wise, should you decide to see The Hurt Locker at the cinema, you'll need to make sure your underpants have their own pocket organizer so they can pencil in a reminder about their inevitable meeting with a Mr. Poop Fromyourbutt. He took several meetings with various pairs of undergarments in my screening.
DISTRICT 9 Official Trailer – Watch more Movie TrailersThe latest full-length trailer for District 9 has just debuted and to put it simply, "Gagagagooooooo!" *slaps face with both hands repeatedly, does double take with eyes wide like saucers* Arresting visuals? Check. Compelling plot? Double check! Mech suits that might rival Avatar? I'm not sacrilegious. It's like they put Signs, Iron Man, and Slumdog Millionaire into a blender but instead of setting to "Blend" they went straight to "Purée Your Balls Awesome." And now my balls are but a frothy soup.

Alright Junkies, we're halfway through the week. You did it. You're a champ. Why not reward yourself by relaxing by the soft, cathode flicker of your television whilst sipping the finest of boxed wines? We've got some pretty great suggestions for tonight but felt it necessary to point out a strange programming phenomenon that is also taking place. While combing the listings we noticed programs called "15 and Pregnant", "16 and Pregnant" and "Obese and Pregnant" are all airing at some point across three different channels. Who's getting all these teenagers and morbidly obese women pregnant? I want an APB on Tracy Morgan immediately. See what to watch after the jump…
Bruno comes out this Friday, which inevitably means that a bunch of real people are going to look very dumb to the general movie-going public that day as well. Socialite/model Brittny Gastineau is one of the many in this group. She assists Bruno in his attempt to infiltrate American television, to the expected hilarious result. While she manages to look stupid in amazingly offensive ways (you'll understand when you see the movie), she also maintains an incredibly high hotness quotient, thereby putting her lack of intelligence or social tact in the "who gives a sh*t?" category for most of the males watching her in the flick.A Word From Brittny (Via Twitter): "Doing laser hair removal at dr frank ryans office and boyy does it HURT!!! I'm such a baby"Eloquent words from Ms. Gastineau. Hopefully her insightful Tweeting will help rebuild her image after the movie… Oh, who are we kidding? She's still hot, and that's all that matters. Speaking of which, check out more smokin' photos of Brittny after the jump!
A tipster wrote in to Latino Review to report a strange publicity stunt that they witnessed over the Fourth of July weekend. New Jersey beachgoers were surprised when a black helicopter emblazoned with the GI Joe logo appeared and hovered over the water. A stunt person then dangled from a rope ladder on the bottom of the copter.That's definitely a strange way to promote your movie. I heard that further north in Paramus they actually had Storm Shadow cut some people in half. More morning news for yous… Aaron Sorkin Wrote A Facebook Script. Several people like this.

BIG FAN Trailer – Watch more Movie Trailers Robert Siegel made a big splash with critics when he scripted The Wrestler and it looks like he's going to be lauded copiously once again. The trailer for his directorial debut Big Fan has hit the 'Net and it looks like an novel concept. Patton Oswalt stars as a repressed toll-booth worker who gets beat down by his NFL hero. The trailer does a good job of pulling me in. Although I don't need another place to watch an Italian family scream at one another.

Alright, it's that time of day again for us to provide a handy guide of tonight's worthwhile television offerings you need to watch.

By Andy Rooney, of CBS's "60 Minutes"My primary care physician has recommended that I find a way to put more exercise into my daily routine. Normally I avoid all forms of physical exertion, but seeing as I'm no spring chicken anymore I decided it might be in my best interest to take him up on his suggestion. I wouldn't want to die and miss out on this newfangled digital television. (Sometimes it's hard to convey sarcasm through writing. So let me just tell you last night I almost electrocuted myself walking into the HDTV my son bought me for Christmas. It thought it was a doorway to the beach and I had my metal detector in hand. Turns out I forgot to turn off the Travel Channel.)

THE DECENT: PART 2 Trailer – Watch more MOVIE TRAILERSThe Descent: Part 2 trailer has arrived online and it looks every bit as scary as the original. And, judging by the brief images in the above, the film looks to combine several elements that scare the crap out of me — dark, confined spaces, vicious man-eating creatures and the Paris Hilton sex tape. It's bound to give me nightmares so if you don't mind, I may have to sleep with your mom tonight. If you'll recall, I take two sugar cubes in my morning coffee; please have it ready.

Though it has already been released in Europe and Asia, Tony Jaa's Ong Bak 2 has yet to find an American theatrical release date. I've posted a new trailer below that shows off Jaa's ability to kick both man and beast in the face. Hopefully the Weinstein company will release it later this year.

Though he's played a wide variety of roles over the course of his career, and is set to play the hardboiled John Dillinger in the upcoming Public Enemies, Johnny Depp has shown himself to be an actor of idiosyncratic but undeniably odd taste in roles. Oh sure, he can do the Oscar-winning drama just as well as anybody (Finding Neverland, Donnie Brasco), but he just can't seem to stay away from roles that send shivers down people's spine or cause audiences to say, "WTF?" (Or for that matter make movies these days that don't have Tim Burton's name attached to them.)
Twitch has premiered the trailer for RoboGeisha and it's pretty much the strangest and best thing you will ever see. A lot of my friends are into dating Asian girls but I've always held out because I was afraid that they might transform into a half-woman, half-tank killing machine.

Well, leave it to Japanese engineers to have figured this one out. Somebody done gone and built a real life Gundam robot. And over the past couple weeks, several pics and clips of the life-size replica that actually moves have shown up. Well now, according to Aint It Cool, another team is constructing a life-size replica of GIGANTOR, the beloved Japanese animated hunk o' sentient metal that debuted in the '50s. The question now isn't if, but how many fanboys will be visiting Japan this year in hopes of being the one whose love for the robots is so strong, it brings them to actual life and in search of an overweight bespectacled introvert to be their friend… and a parents' basement… to call home.Here are today's Gundam-sized Links: Camille Holbrook Walks Through Forest, Disrobes (Gorillamask) The Guido Beach Of Yesteryear (Filmdrunk) The 10 Absolute Worst Movie Trailers Of All Time (Manofest) Very Intricate Carboard Technology Recreations.

I'm speculating here, but one thing I can tell you guys with 100% confidence is that a trusted source of mine recently was accosted in a bar by someone who claimed to have just worked on a shoot for Ghostbusters 3 in the Windy City. Apparently the scene involved an actress being "slimed," and that was all they got out before coming to their senses about what's probably sensitive information. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that I think we'll be seeing a teaser trailer of some sort for Ghostbusters 3 at this year's Comic-Con. The timing is right. There were rumors it would start shooting this Fall anyway. Come late July, don't be surprised about reports from giddy bloggers, journalists and fans recounting their experience of a brand new on-screen, live-action sliming leading into Ray Parker Jr.'s iconic '80s theme. We can dream, can't we? To hold you over until this hypothetical event, check out the trailer for Ghostbuster starring Ernie Hudson after the jump.

As everyone is aware by now we lost both Michael Jackson and Billy Mays within days of one another this past week. The wake of this double tragedy has pointed to corellations between the two men that we would not have noticed otherwise. Take a look, if you will, at the side-by-side similarities below and let us know whether these are mere coincidence or if Michael Jackson and Billy Mays are intertwined on a cosmic level.
Former G-Unit rapper The Game may be ready to join the A-Team according to this article from ComingSoon. The Joe Carnahan-directed reboot has yet to find it's B.A. Baracus with a number of names having been thrown into the ring so far. Common, Ice Cube, and "Rampage" Jackson have all come up in casting discussions. The Game is my favorite of these options. I feel like he could really bring to the screen the intimidating please-don't-kill-me vibe that this role needs (a lot more than Common anyway).But let's face the fact that no one will be able to fill Mr. T's shoes. Therefore they should just cast the man himself. He'd be willing to do it. Heck, he was willing to be in this picture.We're so happy together, you guys!Hate it or love it. It's the morning news…These pictures are Kick Ass. (/Film)There's a guy named Nimrod Antal. Also, he's directing the Predator reboot.

The Solitude is an elegant manor house built in the architectural style made popular in eighteenth century England by Scottish architect Robert Adam and his brothers, James and John. The house sits on its original landscape on the bank of the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia, which today is part of America's first Zoo.
John Penn, grandson of William Penn, built The Solitude in 1784. In 1788, John found it necessary to return to England, and, for reasons unknown, he never returned to America. The Solitude was inhabited by a succession of tenants during John's lifetime. After his death in 1834, Penn family members inherited The Solitude until the death of Rev. Thomas Gordon Penn (John's nephew) in 1869, the last direct male descendant of William Penn.
During this period, the city of Philadelphia had been assembling land to form Fairmount Park. The Park Commission initiated plans to purchase The Solitude estate after Thomas's death. Then, in 1874, the newly formed Zoological Society of Philadelphia was given a lease on the land and "the house" for America's first Zoo. The Solitude has been a cherished part of the Zoo ever since.
The eloquent motifs throughout the house, its historical significance, distinctive architecture and unique surroundings have inspired artists, preservationists, architects, poets, historians, academics and us, the staff of the Philadelphia Zoo and Friends of The Solitude, to write about its legacy and beauty. The House has also inspired individuals and groups to make wonderful contributions to upkeep the estate. Thanks to a recent gift from the Gray family, the gardens at The Solitude are currently being rennovated.
Please contact the Development Office to support The Solitude.
Through the years, the Zoo protected The Solitude without making substantive changes to the fabric of the house. Several years prior to the 1976 Bicentennial celebration, the Zoo, in cooperation with the Philadelphia Museum of Art, was involved in sizeable repairs and improvements made to the house. In 1991, Friends of The Solitude was formed to preserve this historic structure and research its history.
Since the inception of Friends of The Solitude, the group has completed the installation of a new roof, and four columns for the east portico have been fully restored. On the interior of the house, structural stabilization of all ceilings has been completed, as well as a paint analysis of the Library and Parlor ceilings—and a full restoration of the original Library ceiling to its original eighteenth century colors has been completed.
The Friends of The Solitude also initiated an evaluation of the tunnel connecting the house to the kitchen dependency and its associated vaults in 2003, which revealed the unique quality and important historical significance of this structure. The Friends of The Solitude are interested in restoring the underground tunnel and kitchen vaults for future public access and interpretation.
Today, the Friends' primary goal is the complete restoration of the parlor and entrance hall to its original colors. This major undertaking will require the help and support of individuals and organizations who understand the historical and architectural importance of The Solitude.
When John Penn built The Solitude, he commissioned a landscape plan for his 15 acre property, now at the heart of the Philadelphia Zoo. This plan is fully consistent with mid-18th Century English country estate garden conventions, as might be expected given his English upbringing.
John Penn lived during a key period in British landscape design and he was very aware of the landscaping fashions of the period. Penn grew up at Stoke Park, Buckinghamshire, England, an estate landscaped by Lancelot 'Capability' Brown, the leading landscape architect of his time. When John Penn returned to Stoke Park from Philadelphia in 1788, he engaged Humphrey Repton, the noted landscape designer of the late-18th and early-19th Century, to revise the landscape as part of a massive rebuilding program.
Beyond the necessities of an 18th Century estate, the landscape plan for The Solitude has many fashionable components: open views of the Schuylkill River from the house; footpaths offering carefully framed vistas and strategically placed clumps of trees; a "ha-ha," a recent innovation to prevent livestock from entering the gardens; a picturesque flower garden; a bowling green; and a "wilderness" with carefully laid out trails.
In May 2008, master gardener Robin M. Potter was invited to develop a new landscape design for the gardens that surround The Solitude. Thanks to the generosity of the family of the late Walter Gray, the Zoo has been able to use Robin's design to create the Walter Gray Family Gardens.
The design for the renovation of the garden is a careful balance between the history of the landscape, with its roots as a mid-18th Century Philadelphia country villa, and the landscape needs of today, as a focal point of the Philadelphia Zoo.
The original landscape plan for The Solitude provided the inspiration for the new design which includes carefully framed views to and from the house, and plants used in estate plantings of that period. At the same time, by incorporating attractive native plants into the design, the gardens also provide zoo visitors with an important education on the use of indigenous plants in a modern garden, promoting local wildlife-friendly habitats.
In a nod to the more informal approach desired by John Penn, and reflecting today's busy lifestyles, the Walter Gray Family Gardens at The Solitude are designed for lower maintenance. Flowering and fruiting plants were selected for seasonal interest throughout the year. Plants were matched against specific site needs and growing conditions.
Included in the Gray Family's gift is a wonderful challenge. They will match non-family contributions towards this project, dollar for dollar, up to a total of $125,000. The Grays' intent is to bring Robin Potter's inspiring design to life and to create the necessary endowment that will allow these gardens to be maintained in perpetuity.
You are invited to help make this wonderful dream a reality by answering the challenge. Please contact the Development Office at 215-243-5227 to support the new gardens at The Solitude.

A modern-day interpretation of The Iliad at Syracuse Stage connects the decade-long Trojan War and the siege of Troy thats depicted in Homers poem to conflicts of today.
The tale of An Iliad at Syracuse Stage, which begins Wednesday and runs through June 9, is told by the poet, played by Joseph Graves. The play is told in todays vernacular. Producers say the 100-minute turbulent adventure asks the question: What has really changed since the Trojan War?
Throughout the show, the poet makes multiple comparisons to contemporary society and invites the audience to imagine how traumatic the ancient battle and siege of Troy by the ancient Greeks was.
The poet appears disheveled and admits he has been singing his story for years. His account of the Trojan War starts with the arrival of hundreds of ships into the city of Troy and centers around the great warrior Achilles, his enemy Agamemnon and best friend Patroclus.
When we look into the eyes of those living who have known the reality of war, words fail, director Penny Metropulos said in a press release. This is where poetry enters.
Ms. Metropulos and Mr. Graves previously collaborated on An Iliad for Portland (Oregon) Center Stage in Oregon in 2010. The Seattle Times called it Intimate, unstuffy, timely and accessible.
Syracuse Stage patrons may recall Mr. Graves from his performance as abstract expressionist painter Mark Rothko in last seasons production of Red. He is the artistic director of Peking Universitys Institute of World Theatre and Film in Beijing, China.
An Iliad was co-written by Denis OHare and Lisa Peterson.
It will be staged in the Arthur Storch Theatre with an avenue seating configuration. Two banks of seating flank opposite sides of the performance space, creating an up-close experience that will feel like a performance-in-the-round.
n n n
A lobby exhibit in Storch Theatre sponsored by the Onondaga Historical Association will highlight local stories about American wars, including the War of 1812, the Mexican War, the Civil War, World War I and the Korean War.
There also will be a photo exhibit by Stacy Pearsall an award-winning war photographer and Iraq War veteran.

Ready to feel old? Taylor Hanson, aka the "pretty" one from the three-brother pop group Hanson, is 30 years old today.
You're welcome.
The middle brother between Isaac and Zac was a pin-up staple / dreamboat for tweens back in the late '90s, and is now married and the proud papa of five kids. Yes, five.
The group's biggest hit may have been "MMMBop" 16 years ago, but that doesn't mean they aren't still making music. The guys are currently finishing their sixth studio album, which is set to drop later this year and will head out on a world tour to promote it. Get it, boys!
In honor of Taylor's big 3-0, click "Launch Gallery" above to see what he, his brothers and more teen idols look like, then and now.
And Happy Birthday, Taylor!

Notice To Anglers - Winter Drawdown Now Occurring at Unicorn Lake
12/18/2012 | Posted by rparsonTags: recreational
Freezing weather is approaching and the Fisheries Service staff are once again starting their annual winter drawdown at Unicorn Lake on the Eastern Shore, the drawdown began December 18. The lake will remain lowered (+/- 24) until approximately Feb 15th. "Weve been holding off due to the temps being above average and fishermen have been a bit active on the lake", stated Hatchery Manager Russ Parson.
There are a few additional public lakes in the area that fishermen can utilize in place of Unicorn Lake if they want to fish, they are Wye Mills, Urieville and Smithville; these additional lakes all have the same species as Unicorn. The purpose of winter drawdown is 3-fold. First, it freezes out shallow water vegetation - deterring vegetation growth in the warmer months. Second, it forces all species closer together allowing fish to feed with less effort. Third, Unicorn staff uses this time to clean the filter boxes which supply the production ponds with water.

Read: Whether These Lawsuits Mean The End Of A Season
At TSN, Eric Macramalla writes about the lawsuits that the NHL filed and that the NHLPA could likely file this week and what it really means.
A players lawsuit could put more pressure on the two sides to strike a deal as the NBA and NBAPA reached a new CBA 12 days after the players filed an anti-trust lawsuit against the league.
He writes "As the NHL is not looking to fundamentally change its business model as it did in 2005, conventional wisdom suggests that this should get settled and the NHL should return this season. This lockout, however, has been filled with surprises, and as a result, it's tough to know when the sides will strike a deal."
Nick Cotsonika writes "What has NHL's biggest fear been? That Fehr wants to take down cap. So if PA disclaims and begins process, that's a sham? So either this whole negotiation is a sham to take down cap, or disclaiming would be a sham to reach CBA. Hmm."
Cotsonika adds a few tweets and says, "Sounds like NHL is daring PA to disclaim for real, declaring it has made best offer, going to court preemptively to prevent sham disclaimer. NHL to players essentially: "OK, boys. Take our deal, or take the risk if you disclaim. What's it gonna be?" If I'm the NHLPA, I file my own unfair labor charge today, offer to keep negotiating, use disclaimer as last resort."
Craig Custance, at ESPN Insider, writes "Ultimately, that's all this move is — another play for leverage. But it remains to be seen whether that leverage will expedite an agreement or make one altogether impossible."
Custance also spoke with Dan Cleary of the Red Wings and Shawn Horcoff of the Canucks who said that they expect the vote to allow a disclaimer of interest to pass.

Helper American Legion Baseball coach Jeff Cisneros thinks he may have found a way to cut the cost of finishing the ballpark's improvement in half.
Cisneros told the city council at its February meeting that the city would be able to buy reject dirt from Nielson Construction for just $7 per ton, as opposed to the $50 per ton that imported red dirt costs.
The plan would be to use the cheap stuff for the bottom inch or inch-and-a-half of the infield and to finish off the top with the more expensive and colorful red dirt.

Speaking at the Heritage Foundation Wednesday morning, Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) laid out his specific recommendations for restoring the Founding Fathers' vision concerning the foreign policy of the United States.
Paul couched his ideas in the context of the current "War on Terror" and the oft-mentioned, though rarely identified, enemy in that war — radical Islam.
"Radical Islam," said Paul, "is no fleeting fad, but is a relentless force." It is, "like communism, an ideology with far reach and will require a firm, but patient, opposition," he continued.
The appropriate response to that force, Paul argued, should neither be "neo-con interventionism" nor "isolationism." Rather, we should seek a moderate, restrained, middle ground that keeps America's enemies in check without sacrificing our constitutional values.
Those values, Paul said, are best demonstrated by a "more restrained foreign policy" that is the "true conservative" position. By adopting this position, the senator argued, conservatives will be promoting the two principles of that ideology: "respect for the Constitution and fiscal discipline."
It is the failure of the United States to adhere to its own constitutional values that has led to the intervention and occupation of the Middle East that have "fanned the flames of radical Islam," Paul said.
Paul posited that military intervention in a country against the wishes of the host government is war and should require a declaration of war by Congress.
Therein lies the rub, in Paul's view.
U.S. military operations in Libya, for example, were an example of such an intervention and Congress "just sat back and let it happen," Paul said.
When it comes to deploying the military or using armed force against another nation, Paul said the Congress has become "not just a rubber stamp, but an irrelevancy."
Before sending troops and arms to Libya, President Obama "sought permission from NATO, the UN, the Arab League, and from everyone but the United States Congress," Paul recounted. "It is an insult!" he declared.
Making this point, Paul turned to a warning James Madison wrote in a letter written to Thomas Jefferson on April 2, 1798:

Additional Supports that Come in Handy
EVERY college student should have a system for keeping track of deadlines, due dates and appointments. Your system needs several components:
- a planner or calendar you can carry everywhere: the calendar you'll receive from Ringling College at Orientation, your phone, your notebook computer with an online calendar like Google or something else that you WILL use
- a calendar or reminder board for a prominent wall at home and a time each day when you will move information from the planner to the reminder board: We have some monthly calendars at the ARC; stop by and pick one with pictures you like.
- a priority reminder--like another board by the front door or the bathroom mirror (if you have your own!). Here you can post immediate deadlines, test dates and mandatory appointments like registration for classes or housing contract deadlines. This is for what you have to do NOW!
Speech to Text Software
Dragon Naturally Speaking (DNS) and Mac Speech Dictate: These programs, designed for Windows or Macintosh systems respectively, allow users to talk their compositions rather than handwriting or typing. Some students may qualify for these programs as disabilities accommodations, but many students may find them helpful. Doctors and lawyers as well as journalists often use dictation software for their notes (you can imagine how handy this is for physicians with their notoriously bad handwriting). Users have to train the system to recognize their voices. That takes about half an hour, with some corrections to be expected from time to time. Our software support staff can help you learn about DNS. Watch the Ringling announcements for some scheduled demonstrations. Or contact us for a private introduction.
If you have a disability that makes typing, spelling or other aspects of writing difficult, you should try out this kind of software in preparation for your professional life.
Sources for Alternative Text Formats and Text to Speech Software
Like any college, Ringling College provides texts in alternate formats for students with documented print disabilities. Some of these texts come from national organizations devoted to collecting electronic texts, some come from publishers, and some articles we scan ourselves. Students who use this service should begin learning about sources such as Learning Ally (formerly RFB & D) and Bookshare, which they can join as individuals. Texts come in a variety of formats now: CDs, MP3s and others. There are also some very good, inexpensive reading programs (sometimes called text-to-speech software) such as Read Please and Easy Reader that can "voice" any digital text. Some are even available free! In fact, your Mac notebook computer has built in text to speech features that will work with printed content, and the ARC can show you how to access that feature of the system and how to create documents that it can read..
Kurzweil 3000 is a powerful text to speech application that students may try out and use in the ARC. It's particularly good for scanning and formatting reading ready documents
Your Kindle, Nook or other personal reading device probably has a read aloud tool. And there is now a downloadable Kindle for Mac app that will allow you to open those texts on your Mac and listen to them.
Other Nifty Tools and Resources
Note-taking pens: Livescribe (tm) pens offer amazing digital capabilities for note taking. They are fairly inexpensive and worth checking out. We have one now that we'll be happy to demonstrate
Other Specialized software: Sonocent's Audio Notetaker is new software from Microcomputer Science Centre, Inc. They also market a remarkable spelling corrector called Ginger that goes way beyond the spell check capabilities of word processors.
ADDitude: a monthly magazine for students and their families. Every issue offers up to date tips about organizing, meeting deadlines, getting along, and even medications. We subscribe in the ARC; come by and check it out.
Virginia DeMers will be happy to discuss the options with students who are interested. Preparation for the world beyond college will include learning about these resources and acquiring the tools to read and write more independently.

The spacious windows on the first floor of the Woodruff Professional Building make Belinda Cornell feel like she's at the nucleus of the community. And it's a vantage point that will be shared soon by clients at Salon on the Square, which Mrs. Cornell plans to open the first of May.
The spot at 53-59 Public Square was chosen for a good reason by the 37-year-old, who owned a salon for six years in the town of Stanford before moving to Watertown in 2011 with her husband, Adam J., and their three children. The Georgia native was born and raised in a small town with a downtown district that she described as a spitting image of Watertown's Public Square. She's always had a penchant for cozy downtown communities, which provide a special sense of place.
"I like the call back to yesteryear, the classy Hollywood-style towns from the 1920s and '30s," she said while standing on a step ladder Wednesday, rolling maroon paint on walls. "I always loved going downtown when I was young. I wanted to be here because I like the ambience."
Mrs. Cornell will adorn the walls of the 1,500-square-foot space with old movie posters, featuring classics like "Gone with the Wind" and "Casablanca." The salon's maroon-and-black color scheme is designed to complement a poster featuring "The Rocketeer," a superhero adventure film set in Los Angeles during the 1930s. And Mr. Cornell, a graphic design professional, will create a large mural with a business logo.
The large space will include five hair stations and separate booths for makeovers, pedicures and manicures. A tandem massage room will offer massage therapy services for individuals and couples.
Hairdressers will be their own bosses; under independent contracts with the salon, they'll receive a portion of the proceeds from clients, while the remainder will go to the business. Along with providing hair stations, the salon will cover the costs of hair products used. Depending on growth of the business, Mrs. Cornell also hopes to hire two massage therapists.
She hopes that the salon will establish a reputation in the community for service. It will offer waterless pedicures, for example, a technique that uses fewer chemicals and bacteria than normal treatments do. She's taking a course highlighting the technique in New York City this weekend.
"We won't use a basin or bowls , and will save anywhere from 17 to 21 gallons of water," she said of the pedicures. "And between the health and safety of clients, it seems like the right thing to do."
Mrs. Cornell, who recently became a member of the Downtown Business Association, said she's committed to making the salon a sustainable business that will stay put for years. "I've been doing this for a long time and love what I do," she said.
Customers may win a free makeover at the salon by participating in a contest. They're asked to decide when they think the salon will open: before May 1, on May 1 or after May 1. The winner will be selected among the group with the correct response. Responses may be emailed to watertownsalon@gmail.
Hours at the salon will be 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and 1 to 5 p.m. Saturday. Call the salon at 782-2131.

Carrie Perlman
MS/PhD, Biomedical Engineering, Northwestern University
Postdoctoral training, Physiology & Cellular Biophysics and Pulmonary Division, Dept of Medicine, Columbia University
Our laboratory studies lung mechanics in the context of acute lung injury. A hallmark of acute lung injury is pulmonary edema, in which liquid leaks out of the blood vessels into the airspace of the lung. Such liquid-filling of the airspace causes breathing difficulty in patients. For breathing assistance, acute lung injury patients are placed on mechanical ventilation. In attempting to provide sufficient assistance, however, mechanical ventilation can cause over-distension injury of the lungs and prevent recovery. The mortality rate is about 30% and patients often die from the ventilator injury, not the underlying lung disease.
To address this problem, we study inflation mechanics in the edematous lung. Our goal is to use our understanding of mechanics to inform development of novel treatment methods that reduce ventilator induced lung injury.

LINCOLN — On their way to posting undefeated records in pool play of the District IV Little League All Star Tournament, Cumberland American and Lincoln combined to outscore their opponents by an 87-12 margin.
After their respective semifinal games on Tuesday night at Hien Field, the two powerhouse teams kept their records unblemished.
But it wasn't quite that easy.
Cumberland American did its damage early and survived a gutsy effort by Smithfield to earn a 3-1 win. In the nightcap, Lincoln also got its offense going at the beginning and then had to stave off a late rally by Cumberland National in the bottom of the sixth to eke out a 5-3 decision.
The dual victories sets up a battle of the unbeatens on Friday in the district finals at Burrillville's Sherman Field at 6:30 p.m.
'We need to be perfect," said Lincoln coach Matt Netto. "We need to hit. We need to play perfect defense and throw everything we have at them. They are a very good team. I think we are a very good team...I am just looking forward to a legendary game on Friday. I think it's going to be great. I think it's going to be a battle."
Cumberland American, which was 4-0 in Pool B, got a splendid performance from starter Connor Mastin. The determined righty allowed just three hits over five innings before he reached the mandatory 85-pitch count. Connor Lavallee had a near perfect sixth, walking a batter but striking out three in his relief effort.
Cumberland American literally started off the game with a bang as Ryan McCormick blasted a 3-2 pitch off Smithfield righthander Nicholas Squillante in the top of the first for a leadoff home run. Cumberland scored two more runs in the third for an early 3-0 advantage.
Instead of unfolding at that point, Smithfield buckled down. Squillante overcame his early trouble and relief pitcher Anthony Nappa kept Cumberland scoreless the final two innings.
"The way this game was played it was good, clean baseball," CALL coach Dave Belisle said. '"There were not a lot of Ks, just a lot of balls being hit to players. We got some big hits at the right time. I was waiting for us to explode because we got the capability. You got to give them credit. Their two pitchers did a good job of mixing the outside and inside [pitch]. It was a great victory."
After giving up the leadoff homer to McCormick, Squillante managed to get out of the inning with limited damage. He struck out the next two batters he faced and, after giving up a double to the fence from Max Hanuschak, got out of the inning with only one run scored with a pop out from Colin Connata.
"It was a great start," Belisle said. 'We have been doing it so often in the first round. I give [Squillante] credit. He came out and struck the next two of our big hitters and I think that gave him confidence. It gave the team confidence. They jumped in the dugout only down 1-0. I think that was a turning point for them that they only let up one run in the top of the first because they know our lineup."
With some speedy running on the base pads, Mastin hit a two-out triple in the top of the third and scored on a line drive single by Hanuschak. Hanuschak would eventually scored on a wild pitch to put CALL up by a 3-0 score.
Smithfield scored its lone run in the fifth, an inning that had potential to give Cumberland American some headaches. With one out, Ryan Powell drew a walk off Mastin. But on an infield single by Nappa, he was caught in a rundown for the second out. Ali Bastien followed with an RBI double to the fence in deep center. After Kyle Robert walked, the inning came to a close when Brian Goodwin nearly put one out of the park with a high fly ball that was caught at the fence in right field.
"Cumberland is a strong team," said Smithfield coach Bob Squillante. "They have solid pitching that keeps them in the game. They have people out there throwing with the velocity that those two pitchers showed today. We hit the ball the latter part of the innings, it just happened to get to somebody. I thought we had a little break there in the fifth inning. A wrong base-running decision there and the inning could have turned out 3-3 with the fly ball that we had. I give a lot of credit to Cumberland. They made it difficult for us."
Connor Sheehan was lights out for Lincoln as he limited Cumberland National to one hit over 3 2/3 innings. But with Lincoln leading by a 3-0 score and Sheehan under the 50-pitch count that would allow him to pitch again on Friday if needed, Netta took out his strong hurler.
The move nearly backfired.
Lincoln took a 3-0 lead in the first inning on a three-run homer by Noah Duquette. Mitchell Welinski had a lead off solo shot in the second to increase the cushion to 4-zip. Welinski would score again in the sixth after he hit a triple and was plated on a wild pitch.
That run provided just enough insurance for Lincoln to sneak out of its home park with a win.
Justice Belmont's RBI single in the fifth ended the shutout. Cumberland National sent seven players to the batter's box in the sixth. It's first five players reached base safely with a walk from leadoff batter Brandon McMillian and four straight singles from Brandon Croteau, Cam St. Amand, Josh Carlson and Alex Hale off reliever Nathan Fay. St. Amand and Hale each drove in runs with their base hits. Hale was caught in a rundown. Fay managed to survive the inning with two straight pop-outs, including a diving catch by left fielder Alex Levin on a hit by Belmont to end the game.

YOUNGSTOWN, NY - Multiple police and rescue agencies responded to a call of a capsized boat in Lake Ontario Saturday afternoon. The U.S. Coast Guard received word from the Niagara County 911 dispatcher around 3:30 p.m. that three men were clinging to a capsized boat, described as a 19-foot pleasure boat, about three nautical miles offshore from Four Mile Creek State Park, near Fort Niagara.
A U.S. Coast Guard rescue craft from the Niagara Station in Youngstown found the capsized boat about half-an-hour later, said Petty Officer James Bordelleau, who is the search and rescue coordinator for Coast Guard Sector Buffalo. The three men were in the water for close to an hour.
"Our crew responded very well, there's some ice out there, and they were able to maneuver around it and get to the people safely," said Bordelleau.
The boaters were in contact with rescuers by cellphone during the rescue operation, and a GPS unit they had helped searchers find their boat. And time was of the essence: the frigid water was just 37 degrees.
All three were taken to Mount St. Mary's Hospital in Lewiston for treatment and released, according to a hospital spokesperson.
Customs and Border Patrol, the Canadian Coast Guard ship Cape Storm and Joint Rescue Coordination Center Trenton, the Niagara County Sheriff's Office and the Lewiston Fire Department also responded to the emergency call.
Mercy Flight was placed on standby and arrived at the scene as the men were being removed from the Coast Guard boat, the Niagara County Sheriff's Office said.
"The air is warm enough for boating season, but water temperatures are still dangerously cold," said Petty Officer Second Class Craig Deats-Cascio, officer-of-the-day at Station Niagara. "These three men are lucky to be alive thanks to the hard work and cooperation between the Coast Guard and our partner agencies."
Conditions on Lake Ontario were choppy Saturday, with swells of four to five feet reported. The National Weather Service has issued a small craft advisory for Sunday from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. Winds up to 30 knots are expected out of the south and southwest, producing waves from two to four feet.
The sheriff's department tell us two of the men, both 51 years old, are from Wellsville. The third man is 61 from Andover. Both towns are in Allegany County.

'WITH OR WITHOUT THE ISLANDERS' Anti-Islander Group is Front Runner for Coliseum Development
The ball is now in Charles Wang's court as to whether or not he wants play nice with those who have previously stood in his way. A Newsday report today details the plans of a group of four men, all of whom are a part of the Association for a Better Long Island, the group that funded the campaign against the Coliseum Referendum in the Summer of 2011. They also proposed a rejected project for the original Lighthouse development in 2005. The four men are Vincent Polimeni, Jan Burman, Ed Blumenfield and Mark Hamer.
The fate of the Islanders now rests in the hands of Long Island's five biggest developers and how well they can cooperate. At this point, it certainly seems that any cooperation in a long shot.
Newsday reports that the group of four met with County Executive Ed Mangano last week to discuss their plans for development. Magano and Nassau County have yet to put out a request for proposal for the site, but the County Executive said he will announce his plans later this month. This group almost certainly has the inside track when a request for proposal goes out. Islanders owner Charles Wang does hold the right of first refusal on development at the site, which will expire along with the team's lease in 2015.
Here's the damning quote:
"The Hub with the Islanders and with the Coliseum is a needed thing on Long Island," Blumenfeld said. "The Hub without the Islanders can be an economic engine also."
The quartet's effort is not contingent on the Islanders remaining in Nassau, Polimeni said.
The group does not have a plan yet — again, the County has yet to even put out a RFP — but it's not hard to connect the dots on this one, with Newsday spoon-feeding us most of the dot connecting. A group that has opposed the Islanders from Day One of the Lighthouse Project is now meeting with the County Executive about developing the site, spewing quotes that they don't necessarily have the Islanders as a part of that plan.
The three ring circus that is Nassau County plays another show and somewhere Barclays Center CEO Bruce Ratner is smiling.

Take two points and move on.
If that were so easy than I wouldn't be here and neither would you. In reality, the journey of the NHL game is nearly as important as the destination.
For 55 minutes, the journey was pretty smooth for the Rangers. Early in the first period, they were afforded several man advantage opportunities and capitalized on one with a blast of a slap shot by Ales Kotalik from the point.
The teams went back and forth for the rest of the period as the Rangers did a good job keeping pace and playing sound positional hockey. Despite being outshot 12 - 9 and a little lax for most of the power plays, the Rangers were not scrambling and showed good signs of consistent performance for each line.
The Rangers improved through the second period, outshooting Boston 17 - 11 and staying out of the penalty box, aside from a late delay of game penalty by Marian Gaborik. This enabled the lines to continue flowing and ultimately resulted in a pretty goal by Erik Christensen.
Defender Mike Del Zotto began the breakout behind the Rangers net and made his should-be patented hail mary pass to Brandon Dubinsky near the Bruins' blueline. Dubinsky tipped the pass just out of the reach of Zdeno Chara to Christensen who broke in one-on-one with Dennis Wideman on Tuuka Rask.
Shielding Wideman with his left arm, Christensen got Rask to move enough to sneak a one-handed shot through his five hole.
2 - 0 Rangers after two periods.
For another 15 minutes the game appeared sealed. The Rangers were disciplined and giving Boston very little setup time. In fact, the entire third period only yielded five shots on goal for Boston.
But then the Rangers got comfortable.
While on the power play, the Rangers allowed Boston to gain the zone and rather than tying up sticks or taking the body ( a theme over the past couple weeks), a bouncing puck from a David Krejci shot found its way off Blake Wheeler and onto Matt Hunwick's stick and into the back of the net.
Not Henrik Lundqvist's proudest moment as the puck squirted through him, but the bouncing puck and screened view didn't help.
Just under two minutes later, the Rangers would falter again.
As Boston broke into the zone, Marc Staal took a chance and tried to slow Hunwick at the blueline. He missed completely and Hunwick broke in on Lundqvist. As Rozsival tried to recover, he fell into his netminder completely wiping him out of the play.
Michael Ryder recovered the puck in the corner and fed Wheeler who ripped a high shot over an unsettled Lundqvist.
The Garden was silenced.
But the Rangers fought back in the final two minutes led by an unlikely source.
The Blueshirt Bulletin-dubbed "Tri-State Trio" connected when Ryan Callahan tipped a Del Zotto pass to Chris Drury just inside the offensive zone. Drury chipped the puck up the boards past defender Johnny Boychuk to Chris Higgins.
Higgins broke in and faked a pass to get Rask off the post and drew the puck back quick , sliding it behind the baffled Bruin netminder.
Dejected, Boston would not be afforded another opportunity as the Rangers held on for the victory.
The victory could be an important building block as the line combinations are showing some chemistry. The Higgins - Drury - Callahan line has figured prominently over the last couple weeks and the top line has worked well with Christensen.
The third and fourth lines still need to be somewhat addressed and that will most likely happen when forward Vinny Prospal returns.
The Rangers are back in action on Wednesday as they host the Dallas Stars.
Stay tuned this afternoon for an exciting announcement here at Blueshirt Bulletin!

The commencement speaker for USU Eastern on Saturday is Nicole Young, who started her college career here when it was the College of Eastern Utah.
Today she is the vice president of Business Development with the Mandalay Entertainment Group and sought after for her expertise in product development and creating and implementing branding and marketing strategies. She will address the graduates at 10 a.m. in the Bunnell-Dmitrich Athletic Center.
Commencement proceedings will include Chancellor Joe Peterson awarding the Chancellor's Medallion to Major General (Retired) Lynn Stevens, former vice president of the Northrop Grumman Corporation. He is a former San Juan County commissioner, former director of Public Land Policy under Gov. Jon Huntsman, former trustee for the College of Eastern Utah and current member the USU Eastern Regional Advisory Board.
Student speakers include Valedictorian Jordan Sanders, of Castle Dale, majoring in business; Salutatorian Sung Jae Park, of Daegu, South Korea, a nursing major; and Student Body President Matt Gochis, of Stansbury Park, majoring in recreation.
Sanders graduated from high school in 2008 as an honor student and then served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in San Fernando, Calif. While a USU Eastern student, he said being involved in the SUN Center was a large part of his experience. Service has always been a part of his life, whether scholastically, ecclesiastically or civically.
Park is the first international student to represent the class as salutatorian. At 19, he served an LDS mission in Sacramento, Calif. While on his mission, Park witnessed a terrible accident. He saved a person's life by performing CPR that he learned in high school. He said he came to know the joy of saving lives of others and losing himself in the service of others. He said that is what motivated his decision to become a nurse.
In addition, Emma Rowley, from Duchesne County, will be awarded the Val J. Halamandaris Caring Award. As a student at USU Eastern, her service reads like an encyclopedia of inspiration to serve others, including service to special needs children and tutoring for struggling readers.
The Price and Blanding campuses together are graduating 312 students - 192 female, 120 male - ranging in ages 17-57. The majority of the graduates, 274, are from Utah with a few dozen more spread across eight states and seven countries.
The top 10 most popular majors among the graduates are: associate of science, associate of arts, RN nursing, LPN nursing, criminal justice, medical assisting, welding, business, cosmetology and accounting.
Young was responsible for the strategy, development, launch and monetization of "Tell to Win," which became a No. 1 New York Times bestseller. Mandalay Entertainment Group is a leader in providing high quality motion pictures, cutting edge television, professional sports events and location-based entertainment worldwide.
Prior to her work at Mandalay, Young worked at Morris Yorn Barnes Levine Krintzman Rubenstein Kohner & Gellman, a pre-eminent entertainment law firm. As an executive with the firm, she explored and evaluated opportunities for organization growth developed and implemented marketing and communications strategies and analyzed business and market trends.
After receiving her associate of science degree from CEU where she was active in student government and the dance department, Young received a bachelor's degree, cum laude, in English from Utah State University culminating with a law degree from Brigham Young University.
She recently served as vice chair of the Los Angeles chapter of the J. Reuben Clark Law Society. She is a member of the Utah Bar Association and the State Bar of Utah.
