Camp Opens With "The Test" >
Staal Injury Overshadows Encouraging First Scrimmage >
LATEST: Tortorella said that Staal experienced headaches this summer, so the Rangers are keeping him out of action as a precautionary measure. They'd like him to play in one of the preseason games in Europe and hope that he'll be ready for the regular season, but Torts admits that you never know with concussions. Staal did pass a baseline test before returning to action in March and again prior to training camp. Tortorella also said that Prust could be held out longer because of his style of play, but he, too, should be ready for the start of the season. (4:45 p.m.)
UPDATE: Prust, Staal and Sauer all looked fine skating today despite not participating in the scrimmages, Jesse Spector reports. (3:30 p.m.)
EARLIER: The early on-ice reports from training camp should have
Ranger fans chomping at the bit for the season to start, but injury concerns
have marred the first weekend of camp.
The results of Friday's
conditioning tests showed that the Blueshirts trained hard this summer and
were prepared for the open of the season. Even better, in this morning's scrimmage, which featured the first pucks
of camp, Wojtek
Wolski recorded a goal and three assists playing alongside Brad Richards
and Marian Gaborik.
But while the Rangers could be well on their way to finding
the third part of their top line, the mounting number of wounded Blueshirts have
overshadowed any positive developments at camp.
On Friday it was revealed that Artem Anisimov underwent an
MRI to examine a knee issue discovered in his physical with team doctors. Anisimov joined Mike Sauer in sitting out
Friday's conditioning tests, as Sauer, too, had tweaked his knee prior to
camp. Sauer also sat out from scrimmages
today along with Brandon Prust, who the Rangers are trying to ease back into
game action following
offseason shoulder surgery.
Sauer's injury is cause for concern, but the real bombshell came
today when the NY Post's Larry Brooks
tweeted that the Rangers are holding
Marc Staal out of scrimmages because of post-concussion-like symptoms
resulting from a head injury suffered when Staal was clocked by his own brother,
Eric, last February. Staal has been cleared for
contact, but the Rangers are concerned that he was still experiencing
issues this summer. Brooks reports that
Staal won't
play in any of the Rangers' three North American preseason games before the
team leaves for Europe.
Staal did miss
three games following the hit, but he returned to play the rest of the
season and in the playoffs. Coach John
Tortorella is expected to discuss Staal's condition later this afternoon, which
should reveal more about his status for the season.
While it's alarming that Staal was still having problems
this summer, that he has been cleared for contact suggests that the Rangers
could just be treating this cautiously. Staal
has been skating and participating in practices, but the Blueshirts are perhaps
wisely keeping him away from contact and potential harm for as long as
Tortorella will be able to shed more light on the situation,
but it may be premature to worry about Staal missing any regular season games.
- Also of note: Derek Stepan played between Brandon Dubinsky and Ryan Callahan today.

If The Coveteur isn't currently on your list of must-read fashion sites, let us be the first to tell you that it should be-immediately! Taking you inside the glamorous closets and offices of the industry's most stylish influencers, the site is truly one-of-a-kind and always fun to gaze at. Of course, behind every great fashion site lies an equally amazing mind, or in the case of The Coveteur, two minds: Stephanie Mark (left) and Erin Kleinberg (right). To say we admire these ladies is an understatement. Their work is nothing short of inspirational, and their individual sensibilities are quite noteworthy too, which is precisely why we've decided to make them the focus of this month's Style Stalker feature!
While it's obvious this Canadian power duo shares a love for all things fashionable, there's much to be said for Mark and Kleinberg's individual style sensibilities, which are on-point one hundred percent of the time. We love that Mark leans toward a Parisian aesthetic (Breton-striped tops and streamlined silhouettes) updated with vibrant of-the-moment prints, while Kleinberg tends to favor a minimalist approach with a hint of downtown insouciance (leather jackets and high-fashion sneakers). Their affinity for luxurious, standout accessories is certainly not lost on us either. Whether it's a bold clutch, fantastic heels, or a pair of chic sunnies, Mark and Kleinberg have an eye for the perfect statement piece that adds a luxe finish to their ensembles. Yet it's the way in which the ladies expertly mix covetable designer pieces from the likes of Proenza Schouler and Celine with affordable finds from Zara, J. Crew, and even Victoria's Secret, that marks them as true style stars in our book.
Eager to spread the word about these wonderful women, we asked each of them to take time from their insanely busy schedules and share some insight on their globetrotting wardrobes, favorite shopping sites, what inspires their day-to-day looks, and more! Read on for all the details, plus learn how you can emulate each of today's featured outfits.-Jessica Baker

Q & A with Stephanie and Erin
Please describe your personal style in two sentences or less.
Stephanie Mark: My style is very Parisian (never met a nautical stripe I didn't like) meets Peter Pilotto's prints-gone-wild in a very architecturally pleasing way.
Erin Kleinberg: My style is a playful take on the steady classics. Ingredients include a base of refined minimalism, a heavy dose of vintage and leather, a sprinkle of hip hop streetwear (probably influenced from one of my all-time favorite movies, Spike Lee's Do The Right Thing), and just a pinch of grunge for a throwback to my days of obsessively listening to Nirvana on my Discman (remember those?) in the mid '90s.
How does the city you live in inspire your day-to-day style?
SM:The city we "live" in (hard to call a city home when we're on the move so much) inspires and dictates our day-to-day style. We're fortunate to spend time with such amazing people in some of the best and most stylish cities around the globe. In Toronto, my style is super laid-back and casual. The focus here is business, so I'm more about comfort than anything.
In New York, it's all about transition wear. We're usually running around like crazy and hailing cabs in high heels. It's all about day-to-night dressing, so a structured dress and great bag are essential. If I know we're going to be out all day with no time for a wardrobe change, I'll layer a sweater over a dress and take it off in the evening when we go to events, dinners, or drinks.
In L.A., we're way more in our element style-wise. Daywear is easy and casual (flowy dresses, flat sandals, sunnies, wide-leg pants, and lots of colors) and eveningwear is way more glammed up.
EK:Although home is technically Toronto with my family and friends, I consider myself "quad-coastal"-moving around between Toronto, New York, LA, and Paris. I travel so much that my style is heavily influenced by whatever city or country I might be in at the time.
But no matter which city I'm in, comfort trumps all. I don't have the time, patience, or pain-tolerance to be in sky-high heels from 9 'til 9! I'm always on my feet and always on the go. I'm a Marant girl through and through, and her sneakers do me justice in both departments. The architectural lines, edgy details, and athletic-meets-futuristic feel of this updated classic totally sums up my style in a complete package.
List some of your favorite current trends and why you appreciate them/how you are wearing them.
SM: Prints and color are everything right now. I'm really into this burst of refreshing energy we've been seeing on the runway. Wearing color near your face makes a huge difference. I've been trying my best to really push the black-below-the-waist-only thing (except for dresses, of course) and I think it's done wonders for me in terms of evolving my style. Peter Pilotto and Proenza are definitely influential factors in embracing this trend wholeheartedly. A colored, feminine shoe is also a recurring thread in my wardrobe. While no one rocked the platform more than I did, it's very refreshing to see a colored and feminine shoe come back into style. Girls have got to get with the program-there's nothing more flattering than highlighting the foot.
EK: Head-to-toe white is something that I think makes a real statement, and I feel like there's this unexplainable power in an all-white ensemble. The minimalistic look is something that I've really come to appreciate over the past few months. Definitely one of my favorite recent trends is the pajamas-as-outerwear look that we've been seeing across the spectrum of designers from Olatz, The Row, Monika Chiang, Pierre Balmain, all the way to Victoria's Secret. There's nothing like the easy and chic appeal of dressing like it's bedtime.
Who are some of your style icons and why?
SM: I'm really into the classic style icons like Diane Keaton and Lauren Hutton. They both define a generation of style and have heavily influenced the work of today's designers. I'm also really into the way the Olsens have transformed their style. They're really spearheading the return of more feminine dressing (three-quarter length skirts, pointy-toe Manolos, and structured bags). It's classy and sexy all at the same time. Finally, it's hard not to be influenced by the people we shoot for The Coveteur. They all have such individual and inspirational style. We recently shot the Clarins girls and that is one wardrobe (well, four actually) that I would cut off a limb to have access to.
EK: This is a hard one to nail down, but like my style, I love the classic icons (Diane Keaton in Annie Hall, Jane Birkin, and Kate Moss), but also look to a variety of style icons in different fields for inspiration. On any given day I might try to incorporate influences from Hugh Hefner (nobody does silk, velvet-crushed pajamas, and suits like him) and Kurt Cobain. Modern-day muses (and recent Coveteurs) include Miroslava Duma and the Clarins sisters-they have sick style.
Name one go-to piece in your closet and why.
SM: Hands down, my leather ALC mini skirt. I would seriously be lost without it. It's so versatile; I can wear it with tights and flat boots to be more casual or heels and a crop top at night for a dressier ensemble. And it packs so well, too. Major plus!
EK: It's so hard to choose because my closet is filled with family heirlooms that are so sentimental to me. My great-grandmother gave me some of my most prized (and overused) possessions: her gold coin ring and necklace, as well as her fur collar are just a few of the gems. But if I have to pick one, it's a total toss-up between my YSL patent leather cap-toe wooden heels (they're unbelievably and surprisingly comfortable) and my Isabel Marant leather jacket. I've definitely worn each enough times to say I have worn it once for each cent I paid for it.

|Local Law Enforcement Promoting Anti-Gang Steps
|Written by Christie James
|Friday, 23 March 2007 02:48
Local Law Enforcement is working together to fight the growth of gangs and vandalism in the area. And they are enlisting the aide of local businesses owners in the effort. According to Capt. Main of the Boone Police and Watauga County Sheriff Len Hagaman, The Watauga County Sheriff's Office and Boone Police have joined together over the last several months to document and investigate gang tagging and other markings on and around private and public buildings.
Tagging is how gangs mark their territory and recruit members. They paint symbols on buildings with spray paint and permanent markers. Local law enforcement agencies have evidence that of a local group of person's wanting to start a gang, and are working together to prevent that development. They are hoping that business owners can help by checking their property daily for vandalism or damage. If you find that damage, take photographs as evidence, and contact a local law enforcement agency. They ask that business owners report any groups gathering regularly in or at your place of business. Also, consider posting no trespassing or loitering signs and installing video surveillance cameras inside and out. They ask that you keep an eye out for the initials or words Crips, SUR 13, MS 13, K.A.O.S., a three pointed crown painted on various items, and individuals or several persons wearing the same colors, especially bandanas of the same colors. Report suspicious activity and learn more about how you can help by calling The Watauga County Sheriff's Office, Boone Police, or Crimestoppers at 262-4555.

MASSENA Economic development officials met earlier this week with potential investors to discuss pooling resources to revitalize downtown buildings.
Bringing a group together through a Main Street LLC would minimize the risk for any one investor, said Rick Hauser of In. Site: Architecture, revitalization consultant for the Business Development Corporation for a Greater Massena.
I was pleased with the way things went at the public meetings Tuesday and Wednesday nights, BDC board member Larry Ralston said. Its an encouraging sign. The key to this is that the Massena community assumes this is their project.
Mr. Hauser said the first step toward opening the Main Street limited liability company is to gather together several dozen people who are willing to make an investment in renovating a building to draw businesses.
You want to have an open-ended LLC so investors can put in money that they wont see for a while, Mr. Hauser said. They will generally become more engaged citizens. If you have 25, 30 people who put their money where their house is, they will become more engaged citizens.
Mr. Hauser said about 15 people at the meetings expressed interest in contributing to the proposed LLC. We heard a lot of interest, both from investing money and a wide variety of parties that have contracting, management and legal skills of interest, he said.
In some cases, people can offer services rather than money to help jump-start the LLC, such as a contractor helping out with renovations to the chosen building. Existing businesses and corporations also may invest in the LLC with a goal of generating more commerce in Massenas downtown, Mr. Hauser said.
Mr. Hauser said he believes a larger building with space for more diversified assets would be better than a smaller one with limited development potential. He said building space also can be purchased at a better rate with a larger building than a smaller one.
At a previous board meeting, BDC members discussed two possible locations for the proposed Main Street LLC: Sunrise Mall, 48-50 Main St., and the Massena School of Business, near Main and Andrews streets.
BDC Executive Director Michael V. Almasian suggested the School of Business might be the better location.
The Sunrise Mall is very large and daunting for the first effort, he said. The School of Business is in the running because its attractive and appears in good shape.
The School of Business is a three-story building, with room for offices, apartments and retail space. The Sunrise Mall is a single-story building made up primarily of retail space.

By TERRY WILLISSun Advocate reporter
We had to take a detour past Castle Heights last weekend to see if the school had posted their class room assignments yet. I knew they hadn't, but my granddaughter was sure she was the only child left in Carbon County who didn't know who her teacher was. There were no lists up yet and she remains clueless on this matter.
Now I am not too worried about the teacher she will get for the upcoming year, but what I wish I had already was a list of the school supplies she will need, especially since she is in elementary school, I would think it shouldn't be too hard for each grade to get together at the end of each year and compile a basic list of the supplies they will want the kids to have the following year and send it home.
I know I could also buy a whole bunch of generic supplies and hope that is what is required. But after going through this once before, I have learned that no matter what I buy, there will always be many other things that will have to be purchased later.
If I buy notebooks, I will have always bought the "wrong" kind. Then I am stuck with a pile of wide ruled books when I was supposed to buy college rule. Blue pens or black? Colored pencils, washable markers, Sharpies or all of the above? Glue sticks or white glue? Pencil boxes, rulers, scissors, erasers or pencil sharpeners?
Everything is on sale now and I have no list. For those who struggle to make ends meet, having a school supply list at the beginning of the summer so they can buy what is needed as they have money and the stuff goes on sale would help a lot.
A few years ago we did get our list at the end of the year. It was really nice. But since each teacher has their own wants and style you just never know what will be needed, so for now I am just holding off.
Because of turn over and career moves, it may not be necessarily practical to make grade assignments in the spring for the following year. I am also sure that there are those that lose their lists that are sent home in the spring and still send their kids with no supplies until they are sent home another list in the fall.
In the scheme of life this isn't a huge issue. I am not sure if there is a good way to resolve this. I may even be the only one who cares about this.
It is just one of those small things that bug me. Having school supplies on sale in July while most of us do not know what we need to buy is one of life's little enigmas.
So I will wait for my list just like my granddaughter will hold off on finding out who her teacher is.
Meanwhile we are set with about a hundred pencils; you can never go wrong there.

Felician alumni Robin Grounds Clem ('05) has always been fascinated in the study of fine arts, a passion she credits to her time spent in her art classes at the College.
Now, she has taken that passion to another level.
In addition to teaching full time, Robin is a tour guide at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, a prestigious position that requires more than just a casual knowledge of painting and sculpture.
"I went through almost two years of training and tons of research before I was allowed to give a tour on my own," said Robin, who lives in Hasbrouck Heights and is a second-grade teacher at Corpus Christi Elementary School in the same town.
All the training, however, wasn't as rigorous as the application process itself, she explained. The museum only fills the positions for a docent (what a guide in a museum or art gallery is called) as the need arises. Robin was too late in filing an application the first time, so she had to wait three years before trying again. The initial screening was intense, she said, and included a written portion on why she wanted the position. An hour-long phone interview followed, then an in-person meeting with museum personnel. Finally, an acceptance letter arrived several months later.
By the way, Robin added, being a docent is a volunteer position.
"None of us get paid but I truly love it," she said, adding that each docent chooses 10 items he or she would like to include on the tour, which requires museum approval before going forth. And, of course, the docent needs to be an ace on each object.
Robin's tour includes objects from different periods and cultures, including "Eros Sleeping" from ancient Greece, a sculpture from African Congo society called the "Mangaaka Power Figure," a modern art painting, and a Bernini statue entitled "Faun Being Teased by Children."
"I talk a little about composition and how each piece was made, but I also focus on the story behind each piece, and the culture that influenced it," Robin said. The tours, which typically last about an hour, require Robin to speak about 4-5 minutes on each object.
"For each of those 4 or 5 minutes, I must have 50 pages of research," Robin said, adding that it's a continual learning process.
"The museum is the size of three football fields in area, has two levels, and holds more than 2 million objects from more than 5,000 years of history," she said, noting that "it's not humanly possible" to be knowledgeable on everything in the Met, which she referred to as an encyclopedia museum.
Robin is currently doing additional research on the subject of "arms and armor," which she hopes will be her next tour focus.
"I have to study for about a year and then be approved to give a collection tour on that topic," she said. "But I love being there, and I love learning so it's definitely worth all the work."

This fall, a handful of shows Proenza Schouler, Celine, and Isabel Marant are inspiring my personal wardrobe and influencing my seasonal purchases. I love how the fashion tide is turning towards sleek sophistication and polished ladylike looks: it's very adult (in a good way) and chic. I plan on incorporating this trend into my closet via silky button-ups, pleated skirts, and structured satchels, but I'll make it my own by pairing these essentials with pieces that have my signature statement edge. In addition to these must-haves, my eyes are always peeled for of-the-moment prints and the season's key colors. On that note, fall's call for red leather really resonates with me it's unexpected and assertive, the perfect way to wake up any outfit. I'm also crazy about animal-print accents; a hint of leopard is the ideal way to freshen up my timeless staples and make them feel current again. All in all, I'm incredibly excited about fall's fantastic options. Unlike in seasons' past, there's not a single look, decade, or silhouette you have to wear, so you can gather inspiration everywhere. It's thrilling, to say the least!

During the January executive meeting, administrators from the business expansion and retention project (BEAR) discussed plans for the program in the Castle Valley region during coming year.
The project has staffed three full-time VISTA workers who will serve as continuing interviewers and mentors to certain businesses in some capacity.
The project is focusing on the information that was disseminated and recorded during the workforce demographics challenge meeting at the events center.
The team will also focus on the continuation of the marketing and capital acquisition classes that have been developed within the group.
The National Association of State Fire Marshals, retailers and certain electronics manufacturers are in consultation regarding two models of Chinese-made products. Preliminary testing suggests that the electronic products pose a potentially serious fire hazard due to the highly flammable nature of outer enclosures.
Pending further testing, Carbon County consumers are advised to be careful of open flames around all computer and consumer electronic equipment such as game devices, boom boxes, computer keyboards, speakers, ink-jet printers and all electronic and computer equipment sold for use in the home. Residents should start by keeping all candles at least two feet from the plastic outer enclosure of electronic devices.
On Feb. 8 and Feb. 9, the College of Eastern Utah's cosmetology department will sponsor the Holiday Spring Fest 2008 Extravaganza.
The specially planned event is a community-wide celebration featuring businesses that cater to weddings and special events.
The 2008 show has been expanded to include vendors with prom, Valentine's Day and graduation materials. Featured businesses will showcase everything from gowns, accessories and jewelry to decorators, catering and food services.
A fashion show featuring prom and wedding gowns along with tuxedos will be presented at 6 p.m. on Feb. 8 and at 1 p.m. on Feb. 9.

DEKALB JUNCTION Republican Larry D. Denesha, a former DeKalb town supervisor, is the first candidate to announce he is running against an incumbent St. Lawrence County legislator.
He plans to run against Frederick S. Morrill, D-DeKalb Junction.
Mr. Denesha said he wants to serve on the Legislature for the same reason as when he ran for supervisor.
I wasnt satisfied with the way things were being handled and thought I could do a better job, he said.
Mr. Denesha opted not to seek re-election to the supervisor post last year so he could focus on the legislative campaign. He has started coming to county legislative meetings and plans to go to as many meetings as possible of the town boards that make up District 6. He will retire as clerk of the works at Clarkson University at the end of December, so would have the time to be a legislator.
Mr. Denesha said he is bothered by the Legislatures decision to spend down what had been a $20 million-plus surplus and now has to borrow millions of dollars annually to meet cash flow demands.
You need to spend money the same way you would spend your own, he said.
As a two-term supervisor, Mr. Denesha said DeKalb had four budgets under the states 2 percent tax cap and grew its fund balance.
It can be done, he said.
Mr. Denesha said he was also troubled by a lack of bipartisanship on the board.
One of the things I dont see is them challenging the state, he said.
Legislators should be pushing their elected representatives in Albany more to reform unfunded mandates and bad legislation, Mr. Denesha said.
That may be happening, but I dont believe it is, he said.
He was also unhappy with the county boards response to the New York SAFE Act. The board first refused to call for the repeal of the gun-control measure but recently passed a resolution that opposes the use of the county seal on SAFE Act paperwork and which includes a request for repeal, but Mr. Denesha said he believes that was included for political reasons during this election year.
They can see the handwriting on the wall, and I think that stinks, he said. Stand up and be counted.

An earlier version of this story failed to use the latest API oil supply data and inventory estimates from a Platts' analyst survey. The story has been corrected.
SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — Crude-oil futures finished lower Wednesday, pressured by a bigger-than-expected increase in last week's U.S. stockpiles as well as demand concerns tied to ongoing economic and financial woes in Europe.
Also, earlier relief in the market over election returns showing a second term for President Barack Obama gave way to worries about the so-called U.S. fiscal cliff.
Crude for December delivery CLZ2, -0.75% fell $4.27, or 4.8%, to settle at $84.44 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract had rallied 3.6% on Tuesday.
Futures prices marked their lowest settlement since July 10 of this year, and saw their largest one-day dollar and percentage decline since Dec. 14, 2011.
Mitt Romney loses presidential race
How Republican challenger Romney lost the 2012 election to a vulnerable incumbent.
Oil futures added to earlier losses Wednesday after the Energy Information Administration reported a bigger-than-expected rise in crude supplies and a surprise climb in gasoline inventories for the week ended Nov. 2.
U.S. crude supplies rose by 1.8 million barrels, according to the agency. Analysts polled by Platts had expected a 1 million-barrel increase.
Seth Rabinowitz, who covers commodities as a partner at Silicon Associates, said "rising U.S. inventories, which are expected to stay as high as a Hurricane Sandy water line in a Staten Island house unless the U.S. economy starts roaring," are among the reasons for oil's decline Wednesday.
Motor gasoline supplies also added 2.9 million barrels, while distillate stocks climbed 100,000 barrels, the EIA report said. Analysts had forecasted declines for both — a fall of 1 million barrels for gasoline inventories and a drawdown of 2 million barrels in distillate supplies.
Late Tuesday, the American Petroleum Institute reported that last week's crude supplies were nearly unchanged.
"Crude oil began the day higher as investors in Asia and Europe woke up to news that Obama was re-elected," said London-based Fawad Razaqzada, technical analyst at GFT Markets, in a note.
"However, the gains quickly evaporated" as "sentiment turned sour on [European Central Bank President] Mario Draghi's comments about the euro-zone economy and after some disappointing data releases," he said.
Draghi said in remarks prepared for delivery in Frankfurt that the euro-zone debt crisis is beginning to have an impact on the German economy, the largest in Europe.
And "what really pulled the rug from under the remaining [gold] bulls was news that the European Commission had slashed its growth forecast for the euro zone across the board," said Razaqzada.

Unfortunately good and innocent people are often casualties war. The PC term is collateral damage, but that doesn't change what it is. This should be a reminder that one, we are still at war, and two, that wars should be avoided if at all possible.
I often wonder about the mental effect on these UAV operators. They may fly a mission just like this, then get off work and return home like any other person. This has to present a whole new dynamic to a soldier at war. I know talking to others, getting off the plane when they return home was a difficult transition, imagine doing it every day.
Good points- once the mission is over, does 'collateral damage' include the mental effect on the UAV operators and their families?
'Light casualties' are seldom, if ever, light to the casualties.
Now, now kids, I thought this was an aviation board--not a board where we bash each other's countries. This thread branched out way too far and too quickly off topic for me. Exactly what is the meaning of the topic? Are we to feel badly for the child or the drone pilots? Bad things happen when people fight. Wars have been fought since the dawn of men. Nothing has really changed--just the methods. Sadly, this won't be the last incident to be ashamed of. I hope the pilots get counselling.
Very concerning thought processes from some on here.
"For more than five years" That tells me he has been in job way too long. He needs a break. My experience was Viet Nam 68-69 with M-16. I don't care if its a hand weapon to a nuclear weapon. Continue action robs you of your life. Poor management.
War is hell. Ever heard that? There is no way to make it smell like a rose. All we can do is our best and always try to get better. We are doing that. We are a far cry from tons of unguided bombs falling down on schools and hospitals in an effort to get a factory. Today our enemies knowingly use women and children as shields because they know how hard we try to avoid killing the innocent. Once again, we do our best but there will be loss of innocent life. Pray for all involved.
uh, yea.....what "war" are you talking about?
Uh, yea...WWII.
Without sounding like a pacifist, let's just get the heck out of those third world S#!T holes. Does anyone expect those places to look any different 24 hours after the last soldier leaves, than they did 24 hours before they got there? Face it, if you are stuck in the 4th century, no amount of "peace buidling" will sway you to a democratic way of thinking. Presuming a democratic way is best for them may not be practical or achievable.
This account leaves much to speculation. We do not know how the intended target became a target. Had he just fired on a passing convoy and fled to his home or were his past activities the cause? Was the strike executed in haste while supporting troops under fire or was it after hours of careful observation? We don't know why the child came to be in the line of fire, but what doesn't change is that a young life was cut short. No one intended for it to happen and to justify it in any way is disgusting and unnecessary. That child played games like any other kids in the world and probably with a lot less. All parties involved would change the outcome if they could, of that I am sure.
One other thing.... The reason snipers have always been greatly feared is the patience, precision and discrimination in which they are able to strike the enemy. RPA's are the aircraft equivalent.
Welcome to the ugly, nasty part of waging war. This is what is not shown on TV into the living rooms of America. It really started back in Vietnam with the sanitized version beamed into homes. I suppose no one side can be called the villain in this. But it is the reason people want ALL bloodshed ended. Civilian casualties always outnumber military casualties exponentially. For all involved.
We could achieve anything we desired if we could only remove the media element. ROE would be based on tactical and strategic objectives and not media biased opinions. If we accept an arguement that our way is the best way (and I am not necessarily promoting "our way"), than an all out results based campaign should be waged and not a "touchy feely let's not hurt anyone's feelings before we prematurely depart the area of operation precluding doing any more damage without actually achieving any appreciable victory, all the while continuing to kill them" approach. I still stand by a "lets worry less about those who would see every American (infidel) parrish in flames" and worry more about our own failing domestic policies. BTW, As the world didn't end, looks like I can't put off the NY resolutions any longer.
Touchy feely-
I never understood why we should try to not offend the people we kill.
I'm not saying we should or should not kill - I'm strictly making a statement about offending our enemy.
I'm torn regarding war
1. I love my nation
2. I want to protect it
3. I want to avenge those killed on 911
4. I want to stop it from ever happening again
5. I realize we have real enemies that can't be reasoned with or bargained with
6. I love the military - the planes are beautiful
I wish there were no more wars
I wish people could get along
I would love to not even need a military
But there is no way to make my wishes come true. Our enemies want to kill us. War cannot ever be clean. I understand that civilians will get hurt or killed especially when our enemy cowardly as they are hide behind human shields
So we must not allow our rules of engagement to dictate how we wage war. Only by making war so disgusting can future wars be avoided. When the good people of a village report or stop terrorists from attacking us because they fear the retaliation. Only then can we really achieve peace. Peace through strength.
Maybe if we leveled cities again we can have peace. Only then will fear stop future attacks. After such pummeling Germany and japan never shot a gun in anger against us. And now we can either live and let live or be friends. If we dilly dallied with them too - we may still be fighting.
In many ways - being more gruesome and deadly may save lives. God help is
I wholeheartedly agree. My war was Viet Nam. "Rules of Engagement" My directions to my people were, "If there is incoming, I want it to stop! I don't want any heroes, I want everyone here for tomorrows muster, BUT, I want it to stop!
some people can snipe some people can't im glad some can
Those of you who have not experienced the horrific task of being a war fighter and sit there and criticize, buzz off. And if you think that these things happen without serious emotional regrets then you are again badly mistaken. I tell you, when you're starring down the barrel of a weapon aimed at you by someone that you just encounter in a firefight, you don't question if he deserves what you might unleash on him or if not you, your fellow mates. And I guarantee, you don't ask to see a certificate of proof of age. And you foreigners, stay out of it.
Most importantly - Thank you for your service, I always support our troops, always
BUT: The act of war itself is necessary from time to time, to preserve our way of life, freedom and survival
Just because I always treat vets with extreme respect for all they went through - I don't always agree with the war itself. People who haven't been in combat do have the right to discuss war.. You kind of made it sound like those who haven't been fired at shouldn't have an opinion. obviously that is not the case- maybe I misunderstood your comment
My problem: This new "commute to war, sit in computer control center, drop bombs and go home to play with your golden retriever and have a few beers - COUNTING ON THE GOVERNMENT TO SAY, OH YEAH, HES A BAD GUY, DROP BOMB HERE - I have a problem with.
I don't want to see ANY of our troops put in harms way - and yes we should use any and all tactical advantages as possible, but when you don't see for yourself what is going on, and the government says drop bomb here, kill these people there - its getting a little too..... god, I don't even know how to describe it.
Whats to say it isn't abused by some war mongering sadist - authorizing the attack. Or, where is the line that should not be crossed. If its not defined, how do you ensure not crossing that line.
The reason I am posting without fully knowing what I am feeling is in hopes others may brainstorm and I can learn a few things. There were instances where MIL INTEL said - go here, sweep and clear, and when you arrived it was a village without a single weapon (vietnam). Things like that happen.
Again - not an attack on you, Im just a little weirded out about how we are now projecting deadly power anywhere around the world at the push of a button. ...
We know that drones are now patrolling American cities.. and we all know the oath to protect the US from all enemies foreign and domestic. Id hate to see this tech used against enemies of the US living in the US - just because they have an alternate political view - or some other perversion of this weapons system.
Im sure there are more often than not - fully clear, no question - this is a really bad guy, kill him. But unlike your situation where you came face to face with you enemy - these guys never saw it coming, never had a chance to be ID'ed in person before pulling the trigger -
its both a terrific and horrific weapon system
If you are going to fight a war then expect this kind of thing...don't punish those who w/out malice inflict death in a war on the "innocent" especially when you are not the one willing to do the dirty work yourself.
War is Hell but functional. It does have purpose. Innocent people have been caught in the crosshairs as far back as history can record. Do you think that other countries would try to prevent this same thing from taking place if the war was on our soil? Thank again! Every citizen of this Country should be fighting against any form of gun control because this is the very reason that the United States has not been invaded and I assure you that when our guns are gone we will have every nation that we have fought against will band together and take this country. I hate the fact that Mr. Bryant is a casualty of his job. I also ask that everyone support him and reassure him that he was following orders and I appreciate the job that he performed while on duty with our military. As for the media, Let's back up. I never see the media reporting on the good things that do take place as a result of war. I cannot think of any news agency that supports our men and women in uniform. The media is our worst enemy and the United States is still the greatest Nation. Remember this! This nation will never come together like it did during the great wars. Whats gonna happen when your president sells you out to all of the nations that do not like the United States. I am truly sincere when I say that the loss of school children and teachers should have never happened. We have lost more children in this country because of a U.S. Citizen with a serious personality disorder and we are not at war with anyone on this soil. Being a soldier is a difficult thing and do not question the soldier if you have not been in his shoes. Quit complaining and support your country and those that defend it. Remember those that founded this country and the principals that is was founded on. Remember GOD ???? Do Ya!!!!!
This article was a lot of B.S. designed to elicit sympathy and crocodile tears for someone, the Bryant kid, who obviously was too young and didn't have the stomach for combat who probably should have been monitored more closely and replaced much earlier. I give more credit to the pregnant female who toughed it out and carried on. The kind of people needed for this kind of duty are not kids who are proficient video game players but people with nerves of steel like Carlos Hathcock, the legendary Marine Sniper in Vietnam who did not hesitate to pull the trigger when he had the opportunity to take the shot after days of stalking his prey even when his prey was another sniper who was stalking him.
Collateral damage when high explosive warheads are used is unavoidable despite best efforts to satisfy all the rules of engagement. The only part of this story that was regrettable was not being able to warn the friendlies about the presence of the IED they ultimately traversed. What is equally disturbing and regrettable was not being able to provide help to the SEALS and other embassy staff personnel under enemy fire in Benghazi who pleaded hours for it only to be slaughtered and for all intents and purposes ignored and forgotten by the ONE directly responsible. I suppose the decision to help them was "above his paygrade."
There are plenty more to take his place. In the Army, MOS 15W (UAV operator) is a highly sought after job. School slots are booked for the next two years. Army 15Ws also get flight pay for doing this job.

better their kids than ours...
come on Phil....still an innocent kid....they could be saying that over the recent news of last Firday........
[This poster has been suspended.]
its a future terrorist and a hater of Americans....not so innocent.
Ah here we go. Phil sounds like Hitler to all the baby huggers in here. Phil is absolutely right on. Those kids, unless Toby decides to adopt them and move them to Happytown, USA, are friggin terrorists in training. Unfortunate, but that's the way the cookie crumbles. And Toby, I imagine "they" ARE saying that over the recent news of last Friday. These people do not care who dies, as long as it's American, it's a victory for them.
Godwin's Law
Do some think that the pukes inside the shack cared about there kids or anyone else that might be affected by there actions? Hell no its too bad there were anyone else involved but the adults that chose to be killers of others. Those kill without reguard of who or what else gets blown up or shot by them so what is the point of the ones who say poor kid? Those men that are ours are being killed every day by the ones inside the shack and who says to our peoples familys gee we are so sorry that your children wont have a father. If the pukes didnt shoot and blow stuff up then we wouldnt kill them.
[This poster has been suspended.]
Take it back another step; would those men in the shack (if there were any) be killing our men if our men weren't over there? You can't justify going over there and killing them by them trying to kill us because we went over there to kill them . It is a retarded tautology.
...a painful loop, isn't it...let's collect our chips, our troops, pack our ego into a box that's happily lit and call it a day...
Keep taking it back.... The next step backwards in this is 9/11. We can play this take it back another step until the cows come home. Hate is at the forefront of this. The "poor kid" would have been taught to hate Americans. Not because his dad just got blown to hell by us, but because the Taliban would have raised him to have unconditional hatred towards everything that is not in line with their Muslim Extremist position.
everyone is completely innocent up until some point of their life
And "original sin"?
You believe that this all started on 9/11? Seriously?
On 9/11 we had no troops in Afghanistan Iraq - after 9/11 we did. So yeah - I do think that this war was started by a deep hatred for the west. And let's not BS ourselves - the US is not the only place effected by Islamic extremism. All of Europe is dealing with Islam - sleepy countries like holland have been attacked from within - was holland also at fault against the innocent Islamist extremists? Why is it the only people that are innocent are those who terrorise - you have such a bleeding heart for this kid who died - but not for the 3000 who died - all civilian - not one was killing a single person - not one was burning Koran - or doing anything to anyone. Since the enemy is embedded in civilian populations we have to root out the bad elements, house bu house to ensure it never happens again. What do you want us to do? Did you want is to get attacked and do nothing? Or maybe stop eating McDonald's and apologize for making them kill our civilians? Should we let people who had a part of the attack go unpunished - and risk another attack? I've got a deal for you - get these Islamist extremists to fight like men - not cowards using women and children as human shields - and we will promise to not hurt another innocent kid. But we cannot let murders go without being stopped or punishished. Do you really think there is a conspiracy? Ate you one of those who think 911 was an inside job? I can't understand your position - clarify it for me - show me where I am wrong - sorry - where WE as a nation are wrong in stopping people who attacked us first.
Trouble is Boyd you would kill them regardless, history has proved that. If you can steal something from them you Americans kill them.
Whoa Colin. Someone has been studying their revisionist history. I put your age at about 15. Please do not post again in your ignorance and obvious disdain of an America that throughout history has only promoted freedom and self rule with the sacrifice of our military men and women.
not to further derail what is actually an insightful article but...
Because yes, the Brits, the French, the Spanish, the Portuguese, the Chinese and various other nations and nationalities all have such stellar records when it comes to pillaging, resource grabbing, and conquering within only the last 150 years...
I guess there was no war before Americans came along!
Hey Phil if you Yanks didn't behave as obnoxiously as you do by raping and pillaging other nations for your own economic "benefit" and of no benefit at all to those you bully, there would not be those who wish to terrorise you. Your stupid choice of George Bush - both senior and junior, has to be the worst decision any country has ever made, especially in foreign relations.
Get out and do some real work and earn your living without stealing that of others less fortunate than yourselves and you will get friends not enemies.
They are innocent kids until hurt - usually by Yanks...
Colin, if you want to refer to us Americans as Yanks, do you mind if we refer to you and your UK countryfolk as Tommys aka Tommy Atkins? As for the selection of the president Molly Ivans referred to as 'the shrub', the 2000 election was extremely close and was only decided by the US Supreme Court decision to terminate the vote recount in the State of Florida and declare Bush the winner on a 5-4 decision.
As for that being the worst decision 'any country has ever made', may I respectfully request you compare and contrast that with the German Endloesung. If you still maintain your assertion, we will have to agree to disagree.
I'm just going to say this in a way that I believe you will understand. _ _ _ _ off, Colin.

As The New American reported on June 9, missiles fired from a U.S. drone killed at least six people in a rural area of Yemen.
One of the victims, according to Long War Journal, was Saleh Hassan Jredan, a suspected commander of al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP).
After the drones finally left the area and it was safe to recover the corpses, family members discovered the small, charred remains of another fatality of the strike: It was Saleh's brother, Abdulaziz, a 10-year-old boy.
A U.S. newspaper that interviewed a resident of the rural town where the drone strike occurred recently confirmed the boy's identity.
According to available data, Abdulaziz was the first innocent civilian killed by an American drone assault since President Obama declared that such "collateral damage" was a thing of the past.
In a foreign policy speech at the National Defense University on May 23, President Obama set out his "comprehensive counterterrorism strategy," including a plan for the future development of the deadly drone war being waged throughout the Middle East and North Africa.
In his address, the president reported that the United States has been "at war for over a decade." This is an odd statement from a purported law professor who should know that only Congress can declare war and no such declaration has been made since the beginning of World War II.
Undaunted by his lack of constitutional understanding, President Obama went on to admit: "From our use of drones to the detention of terrorist suspects, the decisions that we are making now will define the type of nation — and world — that we leave to our children."
In order to fulfill his promise of "transparency," President Obama committed to confining the use of the remote control killing machines to cases where there was a "near-certainty that no civilians will be killed or injured."
When asked by Propublica.org how the president could justify the death of 10-year-old Abdulaziz, "National security spokeswoman Caitlin Hayden would not comment on the June 9 strike or more generally on the White House position on acknowledging civilian deaths. She referred further questions to the CIA, which also declined to comment."

The new Dueler A/T Revo 2 features semi stealth tread blocks to promote higher tread stiffness and improved handling while enhancing water evacuation. It has a stepped inside notch and saw tooth groove to aid in snow traction, as well as an open shoulder tread design to help evacuate water. The P-Metric sizes also have dual layer tread and NanoPro-Tech which are rubber treatments which contribute to optimal traction as the tire wears.
I previously had cooper tires on my truck and hated them, these tires don't feel like they squish in the sidewalls during fast cornering and I have tried them in light snow, rain and dry conditions since I had them installed in march. I am very happy with them and have seen no abnormal wear or feathering so far after about 2000 miles. I check the edges regularly by running my hand across to make sure the tread is still smooth. I have not experienced any noise issues and they ride nice around town or on longer highway drives. LOVE THEM!

Some road noise with these tires. I have noticed that on highways the tires tend to pull to the outside lane more than other tires I have had. Traction is really good on dry roadways and wet roadways. However had been in wet grass with very little mud. On this type of terrain I noticed some slipping. I travel off the beaten path and hit all kids of terrain. Have found that muddy terrain with rock, I have had no difficulty, with just mud a fair amount of slippage accrued. All in all not a bad tire they do seem to bleed air greatly with temperature changes.

Bike Polo: 'A lot of people who ride bikes are an eclectic group'
EUGENE, Ore. -- They sit atop steel horses, riding on a concrete court.
Swinging lance-like weapons, the players battle each other in a variation on a classic sport.
The game they play is bike polo. | Rules | How to make a mallet
With the swing of a mallet, Sean Watters (above right) sends a small orange ball careening between two traffic cones halfway across the court. Players marvel at his accuracy, and Watters rides a victory lap around the court, striking a metal basketball backboard ceremoniously on his way around.
Watters has organized this group of urbanites into participating in this fledgling sport every Thursday night for the last year.
They play on basketball courts underneath a freeway, using makeshift mallets fabricated from ski poles, duct tape and PVC pipe, and barriers made from two-by-four inch boards bolted together, while drinking Pabst Blue Ribbon.
"If you build it, they will come," Watters said. He first began organizing the event after a stranger from Corvallis, Ore., saw a video of his fixed-gear bike on the Internet.
"A lot of people who ride bikes are an eclectic group," Watters said. "This is a way for them to have an outlet instead of riding by themselves."
Above: Sarah Jarolimek rides by on her bike.
Bike polo began on grass courts and was played in similar fashion to regular polo. Hard court polo -- polo on asphalt -- began in urban cities. It spread from the East coast to the West and from larger cities, such as Seattle, Vancouver and Los Angles, to small cities, such as Eugene.
This year, Portland will host the Northwest's first bike polo tournament.
How to build a bike polo mallet
What you need: Aluminum ski pole, a drill, PVC pipe (2-inch diameter, 6-10-inches long), a bolt and nut, duct tape
- Saw the bottom from an aluminum ski pole
- Drill one hole into the PVC pipe and insert the ski pole
- Drill another hole at a 90-degree angle into the PVC pipe, through the ski pole and out of the PVC pipe.
- Insert a bolt through the previous three holes and insert a bolt to secure
- Duct tape the top of the pole for grip.
How to play Bike Polo
What you need: Two teams of three people, any bicycle, mallets, four orange cones spaced one bike length apart, a field hockey ball
- Each game is 10-minutes long
- If a player touches the ground, the must leave and reenter play
- Light contact is allowed between bodies, bikes and mallets
- The last goal must be hit by the end of a mallet

OGDENSBURG State Department of Agriculture and Markets Commissioner Darrel J. Aubertine is touting Gov. Andrew M. Cuomos commitment to New Yorks farmers.
In meetings with editorial boards and reporters across the state, including the north country, Mr. Aubertine said the governors $136.5 billion executive budget proposal for 2013 proves he is dedicated to supporting the agriculture industry in a way few previous governors have been.
Small farms are viable again, Mr. Aubertine said in a meeting Tuesday at the Ogdensburg Journal office.
In particular, Mr. Aubertine said, the new Taste NY program is a positive step toward bolstering connections between local farm producers and consumers.
Weve got 20 million mouths to feed just here in New York state, Mr. Aubertine said, adding that the governor is advocating better ways of getting local food onto local tables.
The Taste NY program is a $2 million investment in the promotion of locally grown food and locally produced beer, wine and spirits and other goods made in New York.
The products would be sold across the state, sales-tax free.
Mr. Cuomo, in his Jan. 9 State of the State address, pledged to create duty-free stores all over the state to promote products grown and produced in New York. The stores will be established largely in train stations and airports.
Mr. Aubertine noted a shift in the publics awareness of the benefits of local food as more people look to healthier diets.
Calling people who are focused on quality local foods foodies, Mr. Aubertine said its not a fad; its here to stay.
To support the trend, Mr. Aubertine highlighted $3.6 million in proposed state funding that will be used to create four food distribution hubs across the state.
He said the state has a great food supply and plenty of demand, and these distribution hubs will help unite the two.
One of the hubs, at an estimated cost of $350,000, will open in Canton.
The hubs also will give small farmers another avenue to sell their products besides local farmers markets and roadside stands.
Mr. Aubertine said the hubs will prove to be a source of economic stimulation and also will help empower small-scale farmers by bundling their products.

Dual Channel Acoustic Noise Generator
Item: ANG2200
Protect Your Private Conversations from Prying Ears
Most sound masking systems project noise into an otherwise benign environment, which causes the occupants to raise their voices above the noise level to communicate. This eliminates the benefit of noise masking altogether. The Dual Channel Acoustic Noise Generator project noise around the environment's perimeter, not directly into the environment. This approach allows for conversation at normal volumes while defeating eavesdropping devices that rely on acoustic leakage.
The perimeter of noise that the Dual Channel Acoustic Noise Generator creates prevents the use of microphones:
Wall-concealed microphones
Contact microphones
Audio transmitters located in AC outlets
Laser/microwave reflection from windows

- How to Read a Study Record
The Premature ovarian failure (POF) is a rare syndrome observed in women under 40 who induced estrogen deficiency and often leads to infertility final. The etiologies of POF remain unknown in more than 85% of cases. There are 5-10 % of familial cases.The main objective of this study is to recruit, phenotype and genotype 20 families with at least two subjects with nonsyndromic POF in order to identify new loci using a single technical standard nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). This study will also include related population and population control.

- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
The purpose of this study is to determine if blood levels of the hormonal emergency contraceptive agent, Plan B, are altered by concomitant use with the HIV medication, efavirenz.
HIV Infections
Drug: levonorgestrel, efavirenz
Phase 1
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Non-Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Pharmacokinetics Study
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|A Pilot Study of the Pharmacokinetic Interactions Between the Hormonal Emergency Contraception, Plan B, and Efavirenz
- The change in Plan B (levonorgestrel) Area under the Concentration Time Curve (AUC12) prior to and during steady state efavirenz [ Time Frame: 12 hour pharmacokinetic study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Pharmacokinetic parameters of levonorgestrel prior to and during steady state efavirenz [ Time Frame: 12 hour pharmacokinetic study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Frequency of common levonorgestrel-associated adverse events prior to and during steady-state efavirenz [ Time Frame: 3 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- Changes in liver function tests before and during efavirenz [ Time Frame: 3 weeks ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
- The efavirenz Area Under the Concentration Time Curve (AUC 24) in setting of levonorgestrel compared to historical controls [ Time Frame: 12 hour pharmacokinetic study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
|Study Start Date:
|May 2007
|Study Completion Date:
|December 2008
|Primary Completion Date:
|December 2008 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
Experimental: levonorgestrel, efavirenz
healthy HIV-negative women of reproductive age were given levonorgestrel, efavirenz
|Drug: levonorgestrel, efavirenz
Detailed Description:
The use of hormonal contraceptive pills in women with HIV is complex due to potential interactions between these agents and HIV medications. HIV-infected women taking efavirenz have an even greater need for effective birth control as this medication may cause severe brain damage to a developing fetus. The use of an emergency contraceptive agent in cases of unprotected sex or condom failure can prevent pregnancy. This study seeks to establish that Plan B can be used effectively and safely in women taking efavirenz.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years to 45 Years
|Genders Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:
- Healthy, HIV-1 seronegative women of child-bearing age.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Current use of hormonal contraception
- Pregnancy/Breast Feeding
- Post-menopausal status
- Obesity
- Hepatitis B or C

CLEVELAND -- A fire at the West Side Market left the historic building filled with billows of smoke early Wednesday morning.
As a result, it will be closed until further notice with no estimate as to when it will reopen.
An overnight security guard reported the fire at Sebastian's Meats inside the market before 2:30 a.m. Crews quickly controlled the fire, but officials say there is heavy smoke damage.
Photos: Fire at West Side Market
Brent Collins, the assistant fire chief with the Cleveland Fire Department, says the cause of the fire appears to be accidental, but their investigation is ongoing.
The fire department used special fans in an effort to vent the smoke trapped in the ceiling.
In addition to Sebastian's Meats, another stand inside the West Side Market, Foster's Meats, also sustained heavy damage.
