A US defence official confirmed that 250 special forces troops were involved, but refused to comment further on the size or nature of the operation.
Earlier in the day, officials confirmed that special forces commandos were in northern and southern Afghanistan, searching for Taliban targets to strike and searching for Osama bin Laden and members of the al-Qaida network.
The use of small numbers of US troops on the ground in Afghanistan marks a shift in the operations to a broader range of military activities, both overt and covert, after nearly two weeks of aerial bombardment, US officials said.
Special operations troops such as the Army's Green Berets perform many missions, including assistance to opposition forces and collection of intelligence.
Special forces in southern Afghanistan are supporting the CIA's efforts to encourage ethnic Pashtun leaders to break away from the Taliban militia, a US official said.
Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld has declined to comment on the latest operation but did confirm that the US was coordinating with opposition forces in northern Afghanistan.
Airstrikes are continuing in the north of the country, with at least eight explosions being heard in the region to the north east of Kabul.

Bill Maher: fight Tea with Fire.
"The only way to pull the debate back from the far right is for liberals to elect their own slate of 60 unstable, loony tune, mad-as-a-hatter, crazy motherfuckers."
He's joking, but he's serious: it's time for a liberal crazy wing to balance the GOP crazy wing, so we can fly right again. And by right, I mean centric:

It is truly sad that the only response the "intellectual" left has is this.
Agreed. "Fight angry lunatics with angry lunatics" sounds like a recipe for destruction. A rather outmoded maxim.
It's just a little humor guys, I have a sneaking suspicion he wasn't making serious recommendations here (except maybe the very last part).

Well he is a comedian. Yes, he's angry about the ridiculous demands of the tea party and where they have pulled our country (as are so many) and is using humor to point out just how far it's gone.

Too often with compelling new technologies market participants become overly enamored with that attractiveness of the technology and neglect underlying business drivers. This tendency, what some call the "newest shiny object syndrome," is understandable given that virtually all of us are heavily engaged in technology. But it is also mistaken. Without concrete business cases driving its deployment, IoT, like many other technologies before it, will fade into obscurity.

There will be 20 billion IoT devices connected to the Internet soon. What if we could control these devices with our voice, mind, or gestures?

DevOps has often been described in terms of CAMS: Culture, Automation, Measuring, Sharing. While we've seen a lot of focus on the "A" and even on the "M", there are very few examples of why the "C" is equally important in the DevOps equation.

Containers have changed the mind of IT in DevOps. They enable developers to work with dev, test, stage and production environments identically. Containers provide the right abstraction for microservices and many cloud platforms have integrated them into deployment pipelines. DevOps and Containers together help companies to achieve their business goals faster and more effectively.

The last decade was about virtual machines, but the next one is about containers. Containers enable a service to run on any host at any time.

Chefs for Equality Co-Host Dishes with The New York Times
September 29, 2013 by Maureen McCarty, HRC Deputy Director of Marketing
Prominent food columnist and cookbook author David Hagedorn recently sat down with the New York Times to discuss his September marriage to longtime partner and friend, Michael Widomski.
The couple got engaged on December 7 after news broke that the Supreme Court would take up Windsor v. the United States, the case challenging section 3 of the discriminatory Defense of Marriage.
On September 22 on roof of Fiola restaurant in Washington, D.C, the couple tied the knot before Supreme Court Associate Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. For Ginsburg, it was the second ceremony she performed for a same-sex couple in the weeks following the court's decision.
The newlywed isn't backing down from his fight for equality for loving, committed same-sex couples nationwide. This October 30, Hagedorn and HRC will host the second annual Chefs for Equality in Washington, D.C. to help raise funds and awareness about the fight for marriage equality.
Chefs for Equality features an impressive lineup of over 50 of the area's most in-demand chefs and mixologists in the Washington, D.C.
Enjoy an evening touring the menus and cocktail lists of the area's most lucrative restaurants or reserve a five-course dinner and wine pairing at a personal chef table.
To purchase tickets to Chefs for Equality visit, http://chefsforequality.org/

Provided by Texas Tech. Kal Segrist, second from right, coached the Texas Tech baseball team from 1968-83.
In 2014, the Texas Tech baseball program debuted at the College World Series, won 40 games for the 12th time and played in a stadium spruced up by a recent $5 million face-lift. In contrast, Kal Segrist had no budget to speak of, little chance to compete on even terms and a honey locust in play in his outfield. He treated his park and his players with love anyway. He gave it all to a program that really didn't put much money in back then," former Tech third baseman John Owens said Saturday. "It'd be nice if he'd be remembered for what he did," former Tech coach Larry Hays said. "All we've got today is because of what he started." Read more...

Vic Cornett remembers the olden days
July 18, 2014 by Lainey Emoto, Stephenville Empire-Tribune
Vic Cornett, photo by Michael Ross, E-T
On a recent Saturday, among all the hustle bustle at the Chicken House Flea Market, one older vendor stood out. His name, Vic Cornett. His age, 97...
He owned a Mexican café for awhile, then bought a truck and did hauling. He also had some cattle on leased land near Glen Rose. In about 1945 he began hauling alfalfa from places like North Dakota, New Mexico and Colorado to Hico.
"That was in the day when they still pulled cotton by hand, that's how long ago it was," he said. "At one time they claimed that there was more cotton shipped out of Hico than any other place in the State of Texas." Read more...
Black Hawk Down's Long Shadow
by Daniel Klaidman (The Daily Beast: The Hero Project, Oct. 9, 2013)
Twenty years later, the battle still echoes in America's top policy circles. As the U.S. sets foot in Somalia again, men who fought in 1993 tell Daniel Klaidman what still haunts them.
...William F. Garrison, the general who commanded the operation and was played by Sam Shepherd in the film, took full responsibility for the episode's tactical failings. Shortly after the event, he hand-wrote a letter to President Clinton, Defense Secretary Les Aspin, and members of Congress explaining his actions but not making any excuses. His career was short-circuited and he retired two years later.
Garrison now lives on a farm in Hico, Texas, and has never given an interview about Black Hawk Down. He is revered by most of the troops who served under him in Somalia. During the reunion weekend, he attended a barbeque held at Ross Perot's house in Texas. He apparently mingled easily with the members of Task Force Ranger and seemed happy to be there. Read more....

Hello Nathan;
My 1000s has the AE prism, which is great for quick shots. This is an aperature priority system with the shutter speeds being selected. If you really like the camera this might be worth a look. For indoor shots a Sunpak 555 is used with 6 x 6 mount, letting the flash to be used in automatic mode. I like the fact of getting 15 exposures out of a roll of film, Steven.

In another clip, Mr. Youssef asks whether Egyptians created a revolution to remove a dictator and bring in another one. That came after Mr. Morsi issued power-grabbing decrees that placed him above judicial oversight. The decrees allowed him to shield the Islamist-dominated assembly that was drafting the constitution from the Supreme Constitutional Court, which was set to rule on its legitimacy.
Mr. Youssef, 38, is one of Egypt's most popular TV presenters, with 1.4 million fans on Facebook and nearly 850,000 followers on Twitter, just shy of the president's number of followers.
Also Tuesday, police said they had arrested a suspect in a shooting that seriously wounded a protester in Cairo's central Tahrir Square, where an open-ended sit-in protesting the Morsi regime is taking place.
According to witnesses, before dawn on Monday gunmen shot and wounded 19-year-old Muhanad Samir, who has said he was jailed and tortured under Egypt's former ruling military council after he witnessed the killing of another activist. Lawyers say the attacked appeared to target Mr. Samir, who is battling for his life with pellets embedded in his head.
Security officials dismiss allegations that Mr. Samir was the victim of a political assassination. On Tuesday, they said they had arrested the owner of a cafe in downtown Cairo who told police that he fired on the square after people manning makeshift checkpoints there searched his car and shot at him. The officials spoke anonymously in line with regulations.

Several million years ago, it is hypothesized, the first Stone Age human caught the first cold. Ever since then, doctors, nurses, herbalists, shaman and healers of every sort have been confounded by colds and flu. Over the years, these devilish pathogens have been treated with cold baths, wet feet, chili peppers, tobacco, and the application of blood-sucking leeches.
Now we understand that colds and flu are caused by viruses -- but we're still no closer to a cure. The only defense is a good offense. But who says it has to be a drag?
Besides eating right, washing your hands regularly and getting enough sleep, you can maximize your pathogen-fighting potential with a handful of entertaining activities.
They're the richest source of zinc, essential for immune cell function (1), and many studies have shown that even mild deficiency depresses immunity (2). If you're not a fan of bivalves, grab a (grass-fed) burger: Beef and buffalo are other good sources of zinc.
Or whatever tickles your funny bone. A good belly laugh can boost immunity and increase natural endorphins, the body's natural feel-good chemicals. In one recent study, laughter appeared to specifically impact the activity of natural killer cells (3).
In one study, people who were physically active had 33 percent fewer sick days, and when they did get sick, their symptoms were less severe (4). Walking, running, dancing, or anything that gets your blood moving will have the same effect. But if you're coming down with something, skip the lift lines and stay in bed; exercising when you're already sick can weaken immune function.
Forget about isolating; people with stronger social networks and friendships are less likely to get sick. Many studies have consistently linked a strong support system with better immune function, as well as lower blood pressure and reduced mortality (5).
Tai chi, a slow-moving type of Chinese martial art, can help improve the immune response (6); qigong, a similar practice, can have the same benefits (7). In one study, a moderate tai chi and qigong practice improved immune response of older adults after only five months of practice (8).
They're the best food source of selenium, a powerful antioxidant that's been shown to significantly improve immune response. Other sources: tuna, turkey, egg yolks, pumpkin seeds and sunflower seeds (9).
In a recent study, people who practiced mindfulness meditation reduced the incidence, duration and severity of respiratory infections by as much as 50 percent (10). The study's authors noted that the results were nearly as effective as flu shots, which have only a 50 to 60 percent chance of preventing infection.
You'll find lots of foods on the menu that protect against infection. Order the salmon roll for immune-boosting omega-3 fats (11) and have pickled ginger on the side for its anti-viral activities (12). Start with miso soup; it contains probiotics that can help boost the body's resistance to pathogens (13). And order immune-boosting green tea -- not sake (14).
To reduce stress, one of the most important factors in improving immune function (15). Massage also increases the activity and number of the body's natural "killer cells" that fight off pathogens (16).
As long as your partner's well, it's a great way to fight colds and flu. An older (1999) study showed that people who had sex one or twice a week had higher levels of immunoglobulin (IGA), a cold-fighting antibody, than those who had sex less often or not at all. And even if it doesn't work, you'll have fun trying.

September 3rd, 2015
A team of Curtin University geoscientists has discovered the earliest known occurrence of reidite, one of Earth's rarest minerals. At 1.2 billion years, the finding is more than double the age of the previous oldest known occurrence at 450 million years.
Working with the University of St Andrews, the team, led by Professor Steven Reddy from the Institute for Geoscience Research at Curtin's Western Australian School of Mines, discovered the reidite in shocked zircon from impact ejecta at Stac Fada in Scotland. He said reidite is important because it is only known to form in nature during meteorite impact events.
"The discovery of this Precambrian occurrence indicates the potential for using the presence of reidite to indicate and record very ancient impact events," Professor Reddy said.
"It is a breakthrough discovery that will help determine terrestrial impact events which have had a profound influence on Earth's geological, geochemical and biological evolution."
Deputy Vice-Chancellor Research and Development Professor Graeme Wright said Curtin is at the forefront of high-impact research and development in minerals and energy sectors.
"In recent years our research activity, particularly in geosciences, has grown significantly, driving Curtin's rapid rise up the international university rankings," Professor Wright said.
All natural occurrences of reidite are associated with the transformation of the mineral zircon during the high pressures and temperatures associated with meteorite impact events. However, the record of Precambrian impacts is poorly constrained due to the dynamic nature of plate tectonics, erosion and deposition of younger rocks, which may destroy or cover the evidence of ancient impacts.
The reidite was discovered using advanced mineral characterisation technologies housed in the John De Laeter Centre (JdLC) at Curtin University. Professor Reddy used a technique called electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) to effectively discriminate between reidite and its compositionally identical host zircon.
The discovery paves the way for developing reidite as a proxy for meteorite impact events that can be extended back in geological time to provide insights into Earth's early impact record.
Professor Reddy's discovery has been published in the prestigious Geology journal and can be viewed online.
Cited news reported by the National Resources Review on 02 Sep 2015.
On the 8th July 2015, staff at the John de Laeter Centre (JdLC) hosted a two-hour workshop to discuss current and upcoming projects focused on geochemistry data discovery.
The audience comprised a score of people from around Australia with representatives present from Curtin University's Office of Research and Development, Curtin University Library, CSIRO, ANDS, NCI, GSWA, MRIWA and AMMRF.
After delivering a presentation on their recently completed Digital Mineralogy Library project, the JdLC hosts invited their visitors to offer feedback and discuss opportunities for new projects to further assist researchers in managing and disseminating high-value geochemistry datasets.
The response was positive with many participants sharing their views on the importance of data management and discovery, and recognising the contribution that the JdLC has made in this area. Dr Lesley Wyborn (NCI) was "pleased to see the JdLC and the community making progress in achieving what [she] has been trying to achieve for the last 30 years in Australian Geochemistry Laboratories ".
JdLC is looking forward to expanding its data delivery services to include geochemistry data from its Sensitive High Resolution Ion Micro Probe (SHIMP) and laser ablation instruments in the future. Through collaborations with state and national organisations and businesses this project will see more data being made readily available to researchers, industry and the public. This will foster a richer scientific understanding of our country and promote new discoveries.
See poster for more about Digital Mineralogy Library.
* The Digital Mineralogy Library project is supported by the Australian National Data Service (ANDS) and AuScope through the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy Program. The hardware component of the project was funded via the Australian Research Council with support from Curtin University, the Geological Survey of Western Australia, University of Western Australia and Murdoch University.
The project is being jointly run between the John de Laeter Centre, Curtin University Library and Curtin Information Technology Services.
As the downturn in mineral prices continues to drag on Australia's economy, a project led by Perth's Curtin University is seeking to create an open access digital mineral inventory of WA that it hopes could stimulate interest in further exploration in the state.
Industrial Minerals by Cameron Chai, Friday, April 10, 2015
The declining fortunes of Australia's mining industry have been a graphic illustration of how the collapse of the commodities boom can pull the rug out from beneath entire economies.
Data from the financial year 2013-2014 indicates that Western Australia's (WA) minerals and energy output alone was worth $122bn for the year, dominated by iron ore, which accounted for approximately 60% of the sector's income. This equates to almost 65% of Australia's national output, with minerals being Australia's major export earner. The collapse of iron ore prices to below $50/tonne, down from a peak of $190/tonne four years ago, has hit WA hard and the state is now urgently seeking ways to stimulate its mineral sector and diversify its resource base away from iron ore.
One avenue being considered is the public documentation of WA's mineral resources. It is hoped that by allowing free, open access to this information, further interest in developing domestic mineral reserves will be stimulated and create a more varied and sustainable mineral economy.
In WA's capital Perth, the state government is sitting on a collection of over 2,000 heavy mineral concentrate samples. These have been systematically collected and meticulously catalogued by the Geological Survey of Western Australia (GSWA) over the last 30 years of geological mapping. The mineralogical makeup of these samples is largely unknown, but technological advances in both microanalytical and geoinformatics science may shed new light on the contents of the vials.

We are currently involved in an exciting new project with CSIRO and UWA called the Advanced Resource Characterisation Facility which will bring new atom probe and ion beam technology to Western Australia.
The first major facility being developed under the auspices of the National Resource Sciences Precinct (NRSP) was announced by the Australian Government, in August. A $12.4 million grant, as part of the Science and Industry Endowment Fund (SIEF), has been dedicated to the establishment of a new Advanced Resource Characterisation Facility (ARCF) in Perth. Building on existing infrastructure, the ARCF will draw together state-of-the-art equipment for geoscience and resource characterisation already available between the NRSP's foundation partners, CSIRO, Curtin University and UWA, and establish three new world-class instruments to provide a global hub for 'metre-to-atomic-scale' analyses of rock cores. The total project value (including the SIEF grant) invested by the partners is $37.8 million over five years.
The new equipment includes a Maia Mapper (for core-scale chemical mapping) at ARRC, a nanoSIMS (secondary ion mass spectrometer, for sub-micron elemental and isotopic mapping) at UWA and a geoscience atom probe (for sub-nanoscale characterisation) at Curtin University. Combined with the partners' existing equipment, and data management, processing and integration made possible by the Pawsey Centre supercomputer, the ARCF will provide a multiscale approach to the characterisation of geological materials unmatched anywhere in the world.
The nanoSIMS and geoscience atom probe are existing (albeit very rare) commercial instruments, and should be delivered, installed and commissioned within three years. In contrast the Maia Mapper, an x-ray microprobe elemental imaging system developed by CSIRO and Brookhaven National Laboratory, currently exists as a prototype model. It uses the Australian synchrotron's x-ray fluorescence microprobe beamline to produce high definition, quantitative elemental images with microscopic detail in real time. CSIRO will be adapting the detector technology to a laboratory-scale x-ray source over the next three years, creating a routine-use instrument for high resolution x-ray microprobe imaging. Once operational, the laboratory-scale Maia Mapper will be able to create nanoscale elemental maps of a 2 × 1 cm rock sample in about six hours, providing enormous increases in sensitivity, detection limit and spatial resolution over conventional systems.
In bringing a unique and world-leading suite of characterisation facilities together, the ARCF will develop a collaborative and workflow approach to sample characterisation, allowing geoscientists to investigate drill core samples down to the atomic scale, without losing contextual information in the process. The facility will provide routine, multi-scale element mapping of large samples, through to atomic scale geochronology, integrated with compositional and textural information. Since complexity is inherent in drill core samples, with diverse structures and textures related to deposition and mineralogical variation at multiple scales, this ability will allow the true determination of the timing of fluid flow, fluid–rock interaction, metal deposition and reservoir diagenesis, within a complete geological context.
The richness of this information will further our understanding of the processes by which materials are transported and precipitated in geological systems, with fundamental implications for the mineral and petroleum exploration, mining and processing operations of the future.

Nice B&B in a country setting close to many local points of interest. Great play to stay while visiting the nearby CIA and FDR historical sites. There is much to do within a short distance. While here, we enjoyed juices, bread, butter, jam, and sausage...all homemade...courtesy of our Innkeeper, Lee. We enjoyed getting his tips on what to see and do and where to dine during our stay. Recommend this B&B!

We had our 1st wedding anniversary there. Our room was cozy and brunch was amazing! We really had a wonderful time there. Lee & Lisa made sure that our weekend was special. Brooklyn, NY -- J & K

The setting is beautiful and quiet, but convenient to Hyde Park.
Lee is engaging and provides an excellent breakfast.

Our experience was a celebration of comfort. It is evident that the innkeepers continually search for ways to add details which make the inn excellent. From the homemade soaps in the private bathroom, the several well placed night lights , to the amazing gourmet breakfast - we savored it all. This is a most
compementary delight to add to our visit the the CIA and the Roosevelt historic sights.

A 1765 farmhouse- well updated- nice host, good breakfasts.
on September 02, 2008
We just spent a wonderful weekend at the Willows Bed & Breakfast in Hyde Park.
The building is quaint and lovely and obviously lovingly cared for. We really liked that there were just two guest rooms, and our room, the Green Room, was great. Lee and Lisa, who own and run the Willows, were really attentive and friendly. We didn't have an itinerary figured out in advance, but Lee gave us great suggestions about farms to visit and events in the area.
For foodies like us, the BEST part about the Willows was the breakfasts. We've stayed in plenty of B&Bs that are cute to look at but where the "breakfast" consists of a stale croissant or some other uninspiring fare. The Willows was different - Lee is a graduate of the nearby Culinary Institutue of America, and his breakfasts are lovely. He served things like pancakes with rasberries (from his garden), bananas and candied nuts; sausage that Lee made himself; peaches with cream and shaved white chocolate; an egg soufflé with sweet corn, and freshly squeezed juice. All that made breakfast a good reason to jump out of bed in the morning!

Friendly, warm, cozy, relaxing.
on October 10, 2007
My wife & I spent two nights at the Willows, a charming B & B nestled in the countryside. Inkeepers Lee & Lisa were avaialable but unobtrusive and were quick to show their garden and beehives which were used in making breakfast. Breakfast was excellent and unrushed-Lee makes his own butter and grinds his flour among other delights. The bedroom was cozy and stocked with complimentary beverages, home-made soap, and other amenities-the bath had a large claw-foot tub for soaking. With Lee being a CIA graduate, this is a great spot for parents visiting their CIA students. Jack & Donna October 5-6 2007
on June 26, 2007
The innkeepers, Lisa and Lee, made us feel right at home but left us to do our own thing. The breakfast was not only very tasty but full of entertaining conversation. If you are looking for a relaxing weekend in a rustic, quiet, historical setting this will be a good choice. The original house is 200+ and has all sorts of great details. It definitely is not for loud guests with lead feet!

Nice, inexpensive bobbin
Reviewer: A viewer from Bethany, MO US
I keep quite a few different bobbins loaded with thread and these nicely made, yet inexpensive bobbins work great for me. I wouldn't use them for any of the GSP threads, but for normal threads they are perfectly fine.
