Antitactical Missile Defense and NATO Strategy
The true significance for NATO of antitactical missile (ATM) defense lies in the growing threat to NATO strategy from Soviet nuclear, chemical and conventionally armed ballistic and cruise missiles. This chapter will examine why Soviet short-range ballistic missiles (SRBM) and cruise missiles pose a serious threat to NATO strategy, and how ATM can help counter this increasingly dangerous Soviet threat. The flip side of the coin--how Soviet missile defenses could impact on NATO strategy--will also be examined.
NATO's strategy of flexible response (MC 14/3) comes under criticism from time to time, usually as a result of proposed changes to NATO's force structure such as the decision to first deploy, then remove, its INF missile forces. Criticism of flexible response usually falls into two broad categories: concern over the nature of the strategy itself, and concerns relating to the role of nuclear forces within the strategy. Those who are concerned about the fundamental nature of the strategy wonder whether it remains viable in the context of today's strategic environment, which is characterized by Soviet conventional and nuclear superiority. Some veteran observers of NATO wonder if the strategy was ever militarily credible given that it involved "an adequate conventional defense backed by an incredible nuclear guarantee.''1 Other analysts, while recognizing the inherent contradictions and problems with flexible response, recognize that its strength lies in its contribution to Alliance solidarity. As Paul Buteux has noted, flexible response is akin to an ideology for NATO "in the sense that it serves to give shape and substance to Alliance as opposed to individual interests.''2
Geographical asymmetries and a wide diversity in capabilities and vulnerabilities account for much of the ambiguity in NATO's strategic doctrine. The decision to adopt MC 14/3 was based on a consensus that reflected the views

Still taking or recently stopped taking progesterone
I'm still on prometrium oral. 12 weeks 5 days today, and dr said to take it until I run out (I still have 12 days worth)
I will continue taking my suppositories until at least my 12 week appt on Jan 10th. However, I run out Thursday, so I have to buy more to *hopefully* just stop in a few days. lol

I'm on Crinone gel until I'm done with my 12th week, not because of fertility treatments, but because I was bleeding in my 5th week. I'm not sure if it's different since we're on it for different reasons, but my doctor wants to be sure that my placenta has fully taken over.
I'd say, if you're worried, explain your concerns to your doctor and see if you have the option of tapering, instead of just stopping altogether in week 11.

I'm only on 200mg of oral progesterone. Started around the 8th week because of a previous MC and my progesterone was a little low this time. They didn't say anything about when to stop; however I go back for an appointment next week when I'll be just past 11 weeks. I figure we'll discuss it then.

Anna contemplates whether or not to stay in California, Eva tries to win her sister over with clothes.
Anna shrugged and lay back on the floor. Eva's phone rang, she looked down at the screen and said "I have to answer this."
"Hey. Yeah, I'm back." she scratched her nose and listened. "No, not tonight. My sister is here and she's using Eli's room and Eli is sleeping in my bed, it just wouldn't work. Mmhm. But I can't do anything tomorrow. Yeah. I know, I miss you. I can't practice tomorrow I- okay. Hey, I have time, I can do it. By the way, if I bring my bike in tomorrow could you fix the left peddle for me? I think its falling off. I don't know, whenever I land on it it feels really wobbly. Okay I have to go, I'll see you tomorrow. Love you too." She hung up.
"Was that Eli's dad?" Anna asked.
"No, I don't talk to Eli's dad unless I have to. That was Ray, we've been seeing each other for a couple months."
"So Eli is black."
"Umm, yeah. I thought that was kind of obvious."
"Does Ed know?" Eduardo strongly believed that it was the black people who ruined Cuba.
"No. He never will."
Anna laid back on the ground thinking about what a grown up Eva was. She had a kid and a house, although it was empty.
"So why is your house so empty?" Anna knew the answer to this question, she was just looking for something to talk about so the subject wouldn't turn back to her drug use.
"I just bought the house a week ago. Tomorrow we'll go get some furniture." Eva stretched. "Did Eli show you his room?" Anna nodded, "Good, I'm extremely exhausted." They walked up the stairs together, "His sheets are clean, I just washed everything before I left because he threw up all over." Eva leaned against the doorway watching her sister sit on her son's bed. "Goodnight." She closed the door and left.
Anna memorized the lay out of the room, then she flipped off the lights. She went over to the window and looked out. The sky was a brown purple color and rain was still pounding on the window. There was a line of silhouetted palm trees off a ways from the house. She went back to the bed and lay down on top of all the blankets and wondered if it was a good idea to be in California or not. She lay awake for a few hours debating before her body forced itself to sleep

No Need to `Jump Start' Wages Adjusted for Inlfation Have Been Falling in Recent Months, Which Should Stimulate Employment, Regardless of Government Action
Richard Vedder and Lowell Gallaway. Economists Richard Vedder and Lowell Gallaway are s of "Out of Work: Unemployment and Government & Meier), which is due out early next year., The Christian Science Monitor
PRESIDENT-ELECT Clinton says he hopes to "jump start" the United States economy to alleviate lingering unemployment and raise the sluggish growth rate. But what are the prospects that moderately aggressive government policies can significantly improve the economy? Indeed, does the economy even need to be jump-started?
Mr. Clinton has mentioned a $20 billion annual program of public works, mainly infrastructure spending, as a key component of his economic program. But, historically, government attempts to eliminate unemployment through fiscal policy measures have met with very little success.
Public works spending to alleviate unemployment was a hallmark of the depression-fighting strategy of Presidents Herbert Hoover and Franklin Roosevelt. But five years after Mr. Roosevelt launched his New Deal with such infrastructure-creating agencies as the Works Progress Administration and the Tennessee Valley Authority, the nation's unemployment rate still exceeded 19 percent.
More recently, similar programs in the 1970s were accompanied by higher, not lower, rates of unemployment than had prevailed for the previous three decades.
Two factors that serve to make public works spending ineffective in dealing with unemployment are timing and "crowding out."
Typically, years pass between the time decisions are made to build new highways, schools, or sewage systems and the time work actually begins. This is especially true with today's myriad of environmental, affirmative-action, and other regulations, not to mention the time it takes Congress to act.
Moreover, the financing of new federal spending requires taxes that directly reduce private spending and work effort, or deficit borrowing that will raise interest rates, also reducing private-sector activity.
Our research also shows that unemployment grows when the price of labor rises for employers. If what we term the "adjusted real wage" (wages adjusted for changing prices and productivity) rises, unemployment will increase.
So is it wise even to attempt to jump-start the economy? The recent recession arose when the adjusted real wage increased, caused by erratic price changes and wage demands and by government policies pushing up wages, including a higher federal minimum wage.
For the past year, however, the adjusted real wage has been falling. Money wage increases have moderated, being offset by inflation. Increases in labor productivity have lowered labor costs per dollar of output, enhancing profits and making it profitable to hire new workers. …

I have a small stable of bikes with 126 mm rear ends that all have freewheels or Phil Wood double fixed rear hubs.
I have now a Giordana Polaris SLX that I want to complete. I will need a bar ( has Campagnolo headset),
and a rear wheel, and shifters.
I have an Athena rear derailleur, and an Athena crankset (53,42). The bike has braze-ons for the front derailleur, and a 130 mm rear triangle.
Question: I want to complete the drive train into the smoothest possible, what are the compatible options for the new hub and rear wheel to go with the rear derailleur and crankset I have, and can I consider a brake/shifter combo on the bar?
I understand that the freehub/cassette has some advantages over the hub/freewheel combo. In gearing I want to stay as tight as possible, with no jumps-seems many cassettes sacrifice the 16 tooth cog.
Any help would be appreciated, Barnaby

Question from RemixmanS
In GOW I, lever stuck in Challenge of Atlas?
Before i knew there was a "handle of Atlas", i tried desperately to continue thru by pulling the lever that pushes the big boulder (i didn't know that i had to find a handle then pull the lever), since nothing much happened i continued to pull the lever repeatedly until it got stuck (no more R2 O_o), after that I found out that there WAS a handle, fetched it, saved my progress, but when i returned to the atlas room the lever remained stuck.
Now i've already reloaded my saved game and the lever still remained stuck, what i want to now is there a way to solve this because i'd really HATE to restart my game from the beginning, does someone knows a way how can i continue please?
5 years ago
This happened to me just a few days ago. Don't know what to do. My guess is we glitched the game and can no longer progress and restarting is the only option. But maybe someone else can help answer this properly.

Please supply the correct answer.
We are investigating the effects of manganese (Mn) in combination with stress when exposure occurs during early development. This is an important area of investigation in children's health since Mn exposure occurs in young children from soy-based infant formulas, ferromanganese industrial plants, and well water in areas with naturally occurring ground water Mn. In addition, Mn exposure is seen more often in low social economic status (SES) families.
Low SES conditions have been associated with stress, and children in these situations tend to have higher levels of circulating cortisol.
We are investigating the effects of Mn and stressors as models of low SES on the development of monoamine neurotransmitters in the brain, hormonal responses to stress, and behavior, especially learning and memory.
We find that early exposure to Mn leads to long-term changes in neurotransmitters, especially dopamine, and to spatial and egocentric learning and memory deficits. Chronic stress has similar effects. We are currently investigating the mechanisms of these effects and how these factors interact. We are also investigating if early Mn exposure leads to increased susceptibility of Parkinson's disease.

Why can't Moffat use on DW the same standard for good writing he uses on 'Sherlock'?
He can, and he does, as far as I'm concerned.
My DW viewing friends and I think otherwise. One particular friend pretty much nailed it when she said that all too often it feels like Moffat only writes one draft with all the usual inconsistencies of a first draft, but never bothers to do a rewrite. So, his episodes all are bursting with potential, but rarely use it to its fullest.
That's Christopher Bidmead's argument against Moffat's work as well -- it feels like a first draft. To be fair, Moffat's work isn't
a first draft; the next Christmas script went through six drafts and several blown deadlines. But Moffat has said he wants his
Doctor Who
work to feel like a first draft -- breathless, passionate, running from moment to moment, with no hint as to what's around the next plot twist.
Despite the logic problem of the ending that you can sail a supercarrier through, "Manhattan" didn't feel like a first draft to me. It wasn't as tight as "The Girl in the Fireplace" or "A Study in Pink," but it also wasn't as dangly as Moffat's sixth season work.

Texas A&M Aggies
Photos: Ranking the 10 greatest wins in Texas A&M football history
Photo: LEON ALGEE/ASSOCIATED PRESS
4. 1998 Big 12 championship: Texas A&M 36, Kansas State 33 – Bill Snyder's No. 3 Kansas State squad needed a win over A&M to stay in the national title hunt, and it seemed they had it in the bag. The Wildcats led 27-12 before Brandon Stewart hit Leroy Hodge for a 13-yard score in the 4th, and Sirr Parker rolled off a nine-yard run (and ensuing two-point conversion) with 1:05 to go to force OT. Trailing 33-30 in 2OT, the Aggies were faced with a 3rd and 17 from the 32, needing at least a few yards to keep from attempting a 49-yard field goal. Instead, Parker's unlikely catch-and-run into the end zone gave A&M its only Big 12 title in school history and a Sugar Bowl date with Ohio State.

text: Even Microsoft Is Weighing Layoffs Need to trim costs in weak economy has software firm looking at rare cuts By Jim O'Neill, Newser User Posted Jan 15, 2009 9:23 AM CST STORY COMMENTS (0) (Newser) – Microsoft could be considering the first large-scale layoff in its history, as it looks for ways to trim costs, reports the Wall Street Journal. Up to 15,000 positions are rumored to be at risk—6% of its workforce—but insiders say the cuts, across all divisions, are likely to be lower. CEO Steve Ballmer last week said Microsoft, known as one of the "steadiest ships" in the tech industry, was working at "finding our right balance," but he declined to comment on layoffs. Microsoft is set to release quarterly results next Thursday, and could announce cost-cutting plans then. Microsoft would hardly be the first tech firm to ax workers. Hewlett-Packard, Yahoo, Sun Microsystems, and EMC already have announced layoffs this year. Microsoft Corp.

J.E. Clark Preparatory Academy student Devon Robinson, 11, of Detroit introduces himself to Gov. Rick Snyder on Thursday in front of a home being renovated on Berkshire Street. The governor had just announced an effort to stabilize Detroit communities. / Photos by KATHLEEN GALLIGAN/Detroit Free Press
A bank-owned home on Detroit's east side was the first to fall Thursday as a state-funded plan to demolish hundreds of decrepit houses kicked off near J.E. Clark Preparatory Academy.
The $10-million plan, which will start with 250 structures in the MorningSide neighborhood, is a result of a program to create safe walking routes to schools. The funds were allocated by the state Legislature in mid-July from a $97-million payout Michigan received as part of a multi-state settlement in a mortgage fraud lawsuit. Gov. Rick Snyder signed off on the allocation on Wednesday.
"The reinvention of Detroit is not waiting to happen," Snyder said, referring to news of low vacancy rates in Midtown. "It is happening. But the reinvention of Detroit cannot be complete without including the neighborhoods."
In April, the Free Press chronicled the experiences of several students in tough neighborhoods, as they wound their way through dark streets to get to and from school each day. None of those commutes is in the MorningSide neighborhood, a mix of well-kept and abandoned houses, but still, former Clark Elementary School students who came to the kick-off event said their walks to school are not a casual affair.
"It's always people coming out of abandoned houses," said Aja Morgan, 14, who will attend Cass Technical High School in the fall. "What if something happens to me?"
Detroit Public School officials said MorningSide was chosen because Clark Elementary School is stable. The other two neighborhoods that are part of the first phase of the demolition program are also pilot communities for the city's Detroit Works Project. Other schools that will serve as anchors for demolition efforts around them are Bagley, Bates, Bennett, Clemente, East English Village Preparatory Academy, Harms, Neinas and Phoenix Academy.
"The effort with the state and DPS is about more than just tearing down dangerous buildings," Detroit Mayor Dave Bing said. "It's about rehabilitating homes, turning the street lights on and making sure our children can walk to and from school safely."
Bing said that by the end of September, 1,500 structures in Detroit will be demolished and by the end of his first term in office, the city will have assisted in the tear-down of 10,000 blighted structures. Estimates put the number of unsafe homes and buildings at 40,000, with a cost of about $8,000 each to bring them down. There are 5,200 empty buildings within 400 yards of city schools, according to data analyzed by the Free Press in a survey of Detroit's Safe Routes program published in April.
The daylong event at Clark Elementary featured a neighborhood cleanup and landscaping, with students helping Snyder plant begonias.
Snyder also announced the launch of in-school assistance centers run by the state Department of Human Services. Starting in the fall at Clark, parents will be able to get help with problems they may have with the Women, Infants and Children program or student truancy at the school, negating the need to visit a separate office.
DHS Director Maura Corrigan said that by the end of this year, 135 schools in Detroit, Pontiac, Flint and Saginaw will have the one-stop shops.

David Strathairn, an Academy Award Nominee, Makes Appearance at UMaine
ORONO - An Academy Award nominee made an appearance on the UMaine campus Monday night.
David Strathairn took on the role of Ajax in the dramatic reading of the character titled Greek play by Sophocles.
The "Theater of War" performance was made possible by Lunder-Dineen Health Education Alliance of Maine in honor of Maine's veterans, their families and communities.
Ajax is a fierce warrior who slips into depression towards the end of The Trojan War.
Strathairn explains how this play, that was written thousands of years ago, still can play a huge role in the lives of those facing depression of any sort today.
"These plays were written for a very specific purpose - to reintegrate and purify, or at least begin a purification of the sole, so to speak. Whether [veteran's are] dealing with these things on a very personal basis, here's another tool. It's another way to contextualize something that [veteran's] may not be able to talk about, but if you see a piece of literature 2,500 years old, that is essentially talking about the same things that [veteran's] are going through, then they can walk out of the room with something they can use," Strathairn says.
Theater of War has presented the reading of Ajax to military communities all across the United States.
Strathairn hopes that those suffering from some form of depression can take something positive out of seeing this dramatic reading.

3.1 Phillip Lim Pleated Linen Trousers: Love It or Hate It?
by Fashion
Like us on Facebook
The rich blue hue and slight crinkled effect on these 3.1 Phillip Lim Pleated Linen Trousers ($275) are worth mentioning. And while I'm still warming up to the new pant silhouette, these are a contender. Alas, they're trendy and I just don't think very flattering, do you?

I can't stand pleated pants!

Only on a size 0 that has a model's height. These don't translate well for the general public.

I've loved the pleated wide-er leg look ever since the first season of The L Word when Jennifer Beals started rocking those modern power suits.

too trendy, too 90's - they're not horrible, but I would not wear them. I love linen, but these don't seem like they would be flattering at all...

Umm. Sure. If you happen to be as thin and tall as that model... and feel the need to add bulk to your hip/thigh area. But just go buy a $3 pair at Goodwill. I promise, they are EVERYWHERE, because they look horrible on all the normal-sized folks.

Syracuse Chilled Plow Company specialized in the manufacture of cast iron agricultural plows that were "chilled' in a sand mold. At the company's manufacturing peak in the early 20th century, workers made more than 100,000 plows each year, selling them to many countries around the world. The company slogan was, "The sun never sets on a Syracuse Chilled Plow."
Now, through a loan agreement with the Onondaga Historical Association Museum, an actual Syracuse Chilled Plow will return to its former place of origin, displayed atop a pedestal in the center section of Delavan Art Gallery from May 7 - June 13. The plow display shares the May 7 opening with the gallery's other two new exhibitions: the feature exhibit, Fusion and Wild Card show, Paintings by Connie Carroll.

I'm going to be doing some urban, dj's, and one in while skate parks. Can I get a decent one for around $300? Thanks for the info.


text: Michael, I don't believe your theory about the goal of the Zone System has any merit. The EI difference is simply a remnent from before 1960. I guess you could consider that the Zone System didn't have to change with the change in the ASA standard because it was achieving it's goals. You could also consider, it was luck that there was a correlation with the ASA method because of the safety factor in the ASA standard which compensated for the Zone System not incorporating flare. Otherwise an excellent analysis.

. Did anyone care then? Or is hiding a village-sized holoship from the natives underwater somehow okay, but doing the same with the Enterprise not?
Considering there's a pretty big size difference between the two... Which is my problem, the Enterprise is huge, even the TOS Kirk Enterprise/Movie Enterprise. IIRC schematic put the Abrams Enterprise as bigger than the -D. Which is, scientifically speaking, 'Utterly Mother Fucking Huge!"
Nor is it the most aerodynamic shape, but the Enterprise should barely be able to not fall apart under its own weight in an atmosphere, let alone be underwater.
The holoship was the size of the entire Ba'ku village! And it was the shape of a brick!
The Enterprise is not some tin can in space. It goes faster than the speed of light, it flies through gas giants, space amoebas, nebulas. It falls into black holes, wormholes, black stars, gets hit by antimatter warheads almost routinely. And you think some H2O is beyond it's abilities?

Ferguson: One Christian's View
After the Grand Jury came back with the decision not to indict Darren Wilson, Ferguson erupted. And as I was watching, I couldn't help but ask one question: How did we get here? Why is the tension so high? Why are people looting and burning down local stores? Obviously, there were peaceful protestors on the streets of Ferguson, but those voices were quickly overshadowed by broken windows, burning cars, and looting.
As I engage people in conversation about last night's events it almost always comes back to one thing…race. For the sake of clarity, I am a white man in his late 20's, and my color is used to silence my voice due to recent events. And therein lies the problem. When we boil cases like Ferguson, and others, down to a simply white and black issue we actually dehumanize everyone involved. When people say, "You are white and can't possibly understand what we are going through." That ends conversation and creates the impossibility for us to move past race. When white people refuse to engage with the pain and hurt that some communities feel and only focus on the looting and burning, we do the same thing. So, how can we fix it? How can we create a society that treats human beings as human beings? How can we move past the color of our skins and focus on what makes us uniquely human? Glad you asked!
"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them." -Genesis 1:27, ESV
True compassion and understand will never happen unless we all realize one simple truth: We are all made in God's image.
All of us have value and worth because God blessed us with it. God is the one who gave us life, and gave us purpose. Yet, we are so quick to make everything racial instead of making it about the human race. As Christians, we grieve with and pray for the Brown family. Not because he was a black kid shot by a white cop, but because he was a human being shot by another human being.
We pray for the Wilson family. Not because a white man tried to enforce the law and shot a black boy, but because he is a human being who shot another human being. We pray and grieve because everyone involved is just like us…human. And if we are going to actually move past the colors of our skin it will come through the power of Jesus Christ himself.
"There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." -Galatians 3:28, ESV
As a Christian, I understand that when I stand to worship the Creator of everything, I am also standing with people from every tribe, tongue, and nation. And the beautiful thing about the Gospel is that it brings people together under one banner, Jesus, who transcends color, language, and nationality. And when we, as human beings, realize our unique worth given by God and our oneness in Jesus Christ, we will be able to move past racial distinctions. Because in Christ, there is not white or black, have or have not, male or female, we are all one.

Teachings of Jesus: Love Your Enemies
The teachings of Jesus are often counter-cultural. Jesus' words also challenge us as humans. Human history is full of sin. This sin stems from our sinful human nature. This sinfullness is something Jesus challenges in his teachings and one example is found in Matthew 5:43-48:
"You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor' and 'hate your enemy.' 44 But I say to you, love your enemy and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be like your Father in heaven, since he causes the sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Even the tax collectors do the same, don't they? 47 And if you only greet your brothers, what more do you do? Even the Gentiles do the same, don't they? 48 So then, be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect." -NET
Christians have heard these words many times and that can cause us to be desensitized to them. Even if you have heard these words thousands of times I would encourage you to look at these words as if this was the first time you read them.
Jesus says that the Jewish people around him were taught that loving your neighbor was just as warranted as hating your enemy. I think most of us could agree with this sentiment. It is natural for us to love the people who are nice to us and hate the people who hate us, however, we are not called to follow what is natural. We are called to follow what is godly.
Jesus goes against human nature when he says that we are to, "pray for those who persecute," us. He then gives us an amazing reason for this attitude and behavior. He says that we should be like the Father because the Father, "causes the sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous." The reason for Jesus' teaching is because many people saw the Old Testament passages against sinful and evil people as hatred on God's part.
Assuredly, God does hate sin and we see this in OT passages. But God has the right to do so. He is perfect and holy. He has never sinned and he is utterly righteous. So, for God to hate sin and sinful people is acceptable. What the teachers of the Law, like the Pharisees, did was take God's right to righteously hate sin for themselves. What they failed to realize was they were sinful just like the rest of humanity. What Jesus is saying is that even though the Father has every right to punish any sinner, he still causes the rain and the sun to benefit both the "evil" and the "good". We should follow this attribute of God because it shows his patients and his love for all humanity. What Jesus' forbids is taking God's righteous judgement of sin for ourselves because we are all sinners.
Jesus then gives us an example of humanities selective love. He highlights that loving someone who loves you is not true love but natural love. Any person can love someone who is nice to them. Jesus tells us that "tax collectors" and "Gentiles" do that. For a Jew these words would be shocking! Both tax collectors and Gentiles were hated by Jews. Tax collectors tended to be Jews that worked for the Roman government. Many were seen as traitors to the Jewish people because they were placing their allegiance to the Roman Empire and not in God's Kingdom. Another reason for the Jews hatred was that these tax collectors were often greedy. They would often over tax people so they could fill their own pockets. Tax collectors were not the only disliked group among Jews, Gentiles were also hated. Gentiles were seen as heathens. They didn't have the written word of the OT Law and so they were outsiders. For Jesus to compare the love these Jews show with the love of these other groups is extremely divisive and counter-cultural.
Jesus challenges us to be different from the average person who loves only the lovable. Jesus calls us to love the unlovable. Jesus calls us to pray for those who persecute us. We are not called to be like the average person on the street. We are called to "be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect." I pray that all of us will undertake this task to have counter-cultural and divine-like love for all.
