Robert Gilliland "Bob" Beckel[1] (born November 15, 1948)[3] is an American political pundit and former political operative. He was an analyst on the Fox News Channel, where he co-hosted The Five until he was released after being absent for several months. He is also a columnist for USA Today where he writes articles with friend and political opposite Cal Thomas in the style of "point–counterpoint".
Early life and career[edit]
Beckel was born in New York City and grew up in Lyme, Connecticut. He is the son of Cambridge Graham Beckel, Jr. (author of Workshops for the World: The United Nations Family of Agencies [New York: Abelard-Schuman, 1954, 1962 (rev. ed.)]) and Ellen Gilliland Beckel.[4][5] He is the brother of actor Graham Beckel. Beckel is a Protestant.[6]
Beckel holds a BA from Wagner College in Staten Island.[7] While in college, he worked for Robert F. Kennedy's presidential campaign in 1968.[8] He played football in college.[9]
Beckel served in the Philippines as a Peace Corps volunteer from 1971 to 1972.[10] Beckel was a graduate school professor of politics at the George Washington University.[11][12]
In 1977, Beckel joined the United States Department of State and became the youngest deputy assistant Secretary of State (Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Congressional Relations) for the Carter administration, helping to shepherd the Panama Canal Treaty to ratification;[8][13] and the following year was appointed Special Assistant to the President for congressional liaison, working on Salt II and Mideast treaties.[8][14]
Beckel was the campaign manager for Walter Mondale's 1984 presidential campaign.[15] During that campaign he became known as the man who effectively wrapped the Wendy's slogan "Where's the beef?" around Gary Hart,[8][9] Mondale's opponent for the Democratic nomination.
In late 1984, he formed the consulting firm Bob Beckel & Associates, or BBA, which was succeeded in 1985 by Beckel–Cowan, described by Robert G. Kaiser in The Washington Post as "a pioneering 'grass roots' lobbying firm whose specialty was building support for policy ideas—or creating the appearance of it—around the country. This was the art form that came to be known as "Astroturf" lobbying, since the grass-roots sentiments being expressed were not entirely natural."[16]
Beckel managed Alan Blinken's 2002 Senate campaign until he was dismissed after being targeted for extortion by a prostitute.[17] He made a brief appearance as himself on the Season 8 premiere of 24 in a mock debate with fellow Fox News Analyst Monica Crowley.
On June 25, 2015, Fox News announced that they had officially dropped Beckel from the "The Five", saying the show could no longer be held "hostage" to his personal issues.[2][18]
Personal life[edit]
In 1992, Beckel married Leland Ingham.[19] They had two children from the marriage and divorced in 2002.[20]
Beckel is a recovering alcoholic.[21] He has spoken openly about his past addictions to drugs and alcohol, admitting in July 2011 on The Five: "I'm a recovering addict and cocaine was my drug of choice."
In 2007, Beckel was involved in an altercation in a Bethesda, Maryland, grocery store parking lot with a man who took issue with his anti–George W. Bush bumper stickers.[22]
In October 2011, Beckel nearly choked to death on a piece of shrimp at a Fox News reception, but was saved by Fox News chief Roger Ailes and The Five co-host Eric Bolling.[23]
In early 2015, Bob was absent from The Five for a number of weeks which led to speculation that he had been fired. Fox later announced that his absence was due to "health related issues", and it was later revealed that he had major back surgery on March 26 at a New York area hospital. His spot has been filled by Fox regulars Juan Williams, Julie Roginsky and others. During his absence, Beckel stated via his Twitter account that while many conservatives sent well wishes for a recovery and return, many on the left never said anything.[24]
Controversial comments[edit]
- In December 2010, with reference to Julian Assange while on Eric Bolling's show Cashin' In (on the Fox Business Network), Beckel commented, "This guy's a traitor, he's treasonous, and he has broken every law of the United States. And I'm not for the death penalty, so [...] there's only one way to do it: illegally shoot the son of a bitch."[25]
- Beckel evoked controversy in August 2011 when he implied on air that he had held back from criticizing his Fox News colleague Sarah Palin. He agreed with The Five co-host Greg Gutfeld when Gutfeld said he felt awkward making negative comments about Palin, because "it's like [badmouthing] a co-worker." "I know exactly what you mean," Beckel added. "I'll be honest, I've pulled my punches."[26] Both Gutfeld and Beckel later said they were joking, however.[27]
- On April 16, 2012, Beckel appeared on Hannity with Jennifer Stefano and Neal Boortz. After Stefano claimed that the Head Start Program, which aims to help poor children, did not work, Beckel replied, "You don't know what the fuck you're talking about!" Beckel did not realize the show was back from the commercial break, and initially refused to apologize. When persuaded that the show was, in fact, live, Beckel apologized for his choice of language, but stood by the overall intent of the statement.[28][29]
- In August 2012, Beckel reportedly offended some Jews when he referred to Jewish Americans who had participated in a Mitt Romney fundraiser in Israel as "a bunch of diamond merchants we don't know the names of."[30]
- In November 2012, Beckel concluded, while commentating on the San Francisco public nudity ban live on Fox News, that most nudists were, as children, "probably gang-banged, I don't know!" and then proceeded to laugh about his comment and saying, "they were probably sexually assaulted, I don't know!"[11][31]
- In February 2013, Beckel made the statement that rapes on campus do not really happen and asserted that victims of date rape are not going to "take a gun out and shoot [their] date."[11][32]
- In April 2013, in the wake of the Boston Marathon bombings, Beckel commented that visas should be denied to students who emigrate from Islamic countries.[33] Beckel later apologized for his statements.
- In July 2014, during a discussion on The Five about who poses a threat to the U.S., he stated, "The Chinese are the single biggest threat to the national security of the U.S. They have been, they will be and they can wait, they're very patient. Do you know what we just did? As usual, we bring them over here and we teach a bunch of Chinamen–er, Chinese people–how to do computers and then they go back to China and hack into us."[34]
- In January 2015, during a discussion on The Five about youth sentiments about radical Islam, he said: "I think it's sort of like in the United States where younger people today, it's not at all unusual for people to see multicultural dating, for example. Back when I was young you didn't date out of your own ethnicity. But in Europe and other places, this mingling that's going on here, younger people are beginning to find this acceptable. And that's the thing that is sort of scary because they're getting exposed to it on a daily basis."[35]

As the deputy assistant secretary of state, he steered the controversial Panama Canal Treaties through Congress. He moved to the White House to head an Administration effort to press Congress into passing the Mideast and SALT II treaties.

Weight lifted off Watkins' shoulders
Jeff McLane, Inquirer Staff WriterIt happens quickly in the NFL: One moment you're the starter, the next you're not even dressing and may not dress for weeks, if at all. That's Danny Watkins' tale.

If it seems like your Facebook friends are a bit more depressed than usual, blame Facebook. The social media site recently revealed that it tweaked the news feed of about 700,000 users to see how they reacted to positive or negative posts. Facebook's researchers were studying how emotions can be spread on social media, and basically used us as its lab rats. The study found that moods are, in fact, contagious – if you see more positive statuses, you're more likely to post something positive, too. While Facebook has defended and praised the study, everyone else is less than thrilled. Researchers have condemned the study and said it breached ethical guidelines because of "a lack of informed consent." Facebook argues the study was okay because we give the company permission to do research when we agree to its Terms and Service. But reports say Facebook's Terms of Service didn't include the word "research" until after the experiment was over – which is all the more reason for us to read those lengthy agreements before we click "OK."

Or it's imported shows from overseas a couple of times per year.
Irrelevant. Nobody tunes in to see Dana White when they pay for an MMA PPV or watch it on TV. Nobody, except maybe you.
You're *****ing because he wants to make money?
Quite the opposite, he can make as much money as he pleases and i encourage him to do so. Just don't be upset when someone else who is also a business man with their interests negotiate from that position.
He can't make ****loads of money while trying to grow the sport for the long-term?
Yes he can.
I'm not a fan of EVERYTHING that Zuffa has done.
But I respect that MMA in the West was
totally irrelevant and effectively extinct
when Zuffa came along. Now, it's in the mainstream. Fight cards are advertised during NFL games. The
has crossed over now, and created opportunities for MMA fighters and promotors
all over the world
. That is becuase of Zuffa and the UFC.
Super. Doesn't change the fact that Jon Jones, nor any MMA fighter, owes one bit of reverence to Dana White nor should take a haircut for the UFC in demanding every penny the market declares they are worth. Do you think for one second Dana White would deal with the 'evil' of Jones and Jackson if he thought he wasn't making money on the arrangement? He's just upset that he isn't making even more.
Wind the clock back a mere 10 years. Look at the state of MMA.
Totally irrelevant.
Nobody gave a ****. UFC40 featured Ken vs Tito, plus a Liddell fight AND Matt Hughes defending his title. It was the biggest and most successful MMA event ever held on American soil up to that point, by FAR. And it sold as many PPVs as Wanderlei vs Franklin, the weakest card in years.
Once again, irrelevant.
You call yourself a Western MMA fan, but you **** all over Dana and Zuffa and have nothing positive to say about what they have done for the sport? Time to grow up, eh?
No, I don't participate in hero worship like you. He's a business man and made a business decision. He gets as much praise from me as any other successful business person. He saw a opportunity to make money and he capitalized.
He sure as hell tries to give the fans the fights they want to see.
No, he gives what he thinks will make him money. If another promotion was to rocket up the relevancy ladder with a young Light heavyweight champion who's blasting guys out like Jon Jones, do you think he would entertain a Co-Promotion to make that fight even if its what the fans wanted? No he wouldn't because it would not make him as much money on a deal that he desired.
And yeah, Jones vs Hendo was a weak card. But it's worth remembering that Ellenberger-Koscheck was supposed to be the main undercard fight, which is not a bad supporting fight. Dana can't help it if guys get injured, and it'll happen more often with Zuffa. Because, unlike every other MMA org ever, they cover medical costs for their fighters. And maybe something could have been done with the main event, if Hendo hadn't been so secretive about his injury until the last possible second.
That's great that they cover medical expenses. Doesn't change one thing about the issue of the canceled card. Dana White wanted Jon Jones to take a haircut to carry his **** poor fight card and he wanted him to get essentially jumped by having to fight Sonnen who knew well before Jones did that Hendo was not going to fight and was training.
Sure, that sounds great.
Instead of spending big money on international flights and hotels for dozens of people so that they can host an event in Sweden or Sydney and give a new audience the chance to see and feel involved in big-time MMA,
If Dana wants to grow the UFC in that manner. More power to him. But make it worth Jon Jones' business instead of expecting charity via taking a financial haircut on what he should be earning.
let's give Jon Jones $25 million to have him fight in Vegas once a year.
If he's expected to do the most work by carrying entire cards by himself, then he deserves to make the most money.
Let's turn all the champions into spoiled multi-multi-millionaires who pick and choose their fights and do whatever they want, like it is in boxing.
Yes spoiled because for taking punches and kicks to the head, they want to make as much money as possible for trading brain cells for cash. Finances dictates who faces who in the UFC, just like in boxing.
Let's make sure that EVERY employee of the UFC earns $150k plus. Let's pay the totally interchangeable journeymen undercard guys $50k for a fight.
Now you are talking to yourself I don't give a **** about if someone earns a $5K per fight minimum or $5M. They, the fighters, should be businessmen and earn as much per fight as the market dictates just like the UFC tries to make off of them. If Anderson Silva is worth $10M a fight, he should earn $10M a fight.
Instead of investing in new markets and spending money trying to grow the sport internationally, let's stay at home in Vegas for every event. More money to give the fighters that way, you see.
No. There are plenty of boxers that fight in Europe because they can earn more there, same in Australia, I would imagine. If Dana White really cares about growing the brand why should Jon Jones take a haircut on the issue? Why can't Dana, he and the Mafia bros own the company and therefore have the most to gain 10, 20, and 30 years down the road, none of the fighters around today have any benefit of those gains coming to fruition and therefore should not consider taking the haircut. If Dana White wants him to take haircuts for the long term growth of the UFC make him party to the long term growth by making him a co-owner of the UFC/Zuffa.
How much
Jon Jones be earning?
As much as he possibly can.
He's a 25 year old multi-millionaire who competes in a sport that essentially didn't exist ten years ago.
No it existed and was doing okay in Japan, not as well as now but he would have had a market to go to if he so chose.
years ago, nobody knew who the **** Jon Jones was.
So. Its now, not 2 years ago.
Now, because of the UFC,
So it was Dana white that hopped in the ring and broke Brandon Vera's face, turned Matyushenko's head into a basketball, dominated Bader, and then ran over the top 5 fighters in the division like they were tissue paper. All Dana White's doing right? no Jones got to where he was because of Jones. The UFC allowed him to perform because they saw talent and realized it would be good for their financial well being to have young blood in the sport. He's delivered on his end of the bargain. If he wasn't what the UFC wanted he would have been cut or he would be fodder for another up and comer like Vera is.
he's a multi-millionaire who has an international endorsement deal with Nike. Just like Federer and Tiger. That's not enough? He needs more or Zuffa is somehow ripping him off?
So rich people can't get ripped off? No it isn't enough. Jones is in the business of getting hit in the head, if he thinks he can earn a nickel more for his services he should get that nickel if the market agrees. And judging by the fact Dana didn't cut him, is the case that Zuffa is blowing a lot of smoke.
Who owes more to the other - Jon Jones or the UFC? Who needed who more? Dana can and did make money without Jon Jones. How rich is Jon Jones, without Zuffa to put him in front of the people?
Neither one owes the other anything other than what the maximum they can get out of each other. If Jon Jones doesn't sell do you think for one second the UFC would give a **** about cutting him? He could be the nicest guy in the world and suck up to Dana from now to the day he dies and Dana White would cut him if he didn't make the UFC money and Jon Jones should be willing to leave the UFC by some mismanagement they stop being lucrative venture.
Forgive me if I don't feel too sorry for Jon Jones when he moans about how hard-done by he is.
Don't really care if you do.

Note: WS DEAL is part of focalprice.com but WS DEAL is cheap for large orders and FocalPrice is cheap for small orders. "
"Over the past 2 months I have placed orders to the value of about USD9600 with WSdeal.com.
I am over the moon with their service, quality of products, good communications, VERY good prices, very fair shipping costs and fast dispatch of orders.
For a number of my orders, I've asked them to source products for me, which they did.
You can't go wrong ordering from them - Julie gives excellent customer service.
WSdeal.com is my preferred supplier in China - try them, you won't be disappointed.
"Very good store. A lot of products and prices are not great. Sellers are very attentive and polite, you can discuss any details. I came to order, which was a problem with the product - no problem traded for another. This is the best shop, where such an attitude a good attitude towards customers.
in Russian language.
Очень хороший магазин. Много товаров и не большие цены. Продавцы очень внимательные и вежливые, можно обсудить любые детали. Мне пришел заказ, где были неполадки с товаром - без проблем обменял на новый. Это лучший магазин, где такое отношение хорошее отношение к клиентам."
"Im very happy to deal with them, they always reply emails same or next day, you can talk directly and ask what you need, very good customer service, fast shipping. In one word, the best wholesale website that I know :-)"
"Always excellent in service, I can say that they are one of the best and reliable sellers that you can trade with! Although there are many red tapes tat they have, but I guess this is the only way to prove that they are genuine and sincere sellers!"

JEREMIAH, Ky (WYMT) - Law enforcement tell WYMT there is a growing problem in Letcher County.
Early Monday, Letcher County Sheriff's deputies arrested four people they said were making meth. Sheriff Danny Webb said this latest crime could be just the beginning.
Police cruisers lined the way leading to a trailer on Burton Hill Road on Monday. That is where investigators spent the afternoon cleaning up materials they believe were used to make meth.
"They could smell the strong odor of meth and that is how the arrest came about," said Webb.
In total, four people were arrested. That includes Daniel Bentley, Sonya Freeman, John McCool and Jason Gibbs. They were taken to ARH in Whitesburg for decontamination.
"If you take them into a close quarters like at the Letcher County Jail, you have got the fumes and stuff on their clothes and it could cause a problem," said Webb.
Sheriff's Deputy Eugene Slone said this is not the first complaint about meth the department has gotten. However, officials tell WYMT what used to be a rare occurrence is not anymore.
"I had never dealt with that before and I have worked here 16 years. Today, we are getting meth complaints on probably a daily basis," said Slone.
Sheriff Webb added there might be a reason for that.
"Cocaine and heroin, stuff like that, that is a little bit harder for them to get. So meth, if they learn to make it and everything, eventually it will get into your community and that is what we are dealing with right now," said Webb.
Webb said the four suspects will face several meth related charges. Several homes surround the trailer where the meth lab was suspected.
The sheriff says a Neighborhood Watch program nearby alerted those who live close to steer clear of the area.

My struts web application is progressing nicely. Its a simple MVC implementation of a clinical database with web pages that show patient data securely. I've had a quick and dirty version working for some time using JSPs and scriptlets, and now have seen the light and am using Struts.
Of course, I have to completely rewrite all my code and wrap my head around some real Java programming ( You can go a long way with scriptlets and JSP without really understanding Java and OOP.)
My main hurdle has been the Model.I can't create an Object-relational model that reflects all 100 tables in my database, but am able to create row level beans that reflect rows from the resultSets derived from complex queries applied to the database. I use Getter and Setter methods to instantiate properties in these Beans, which I package up into a Vector and add to the request attribute of a Struts ActionForm. The View JSP unpacks the Vector and writes out the bean properties as data on the JSP. I think I have managed a separation of business logic from the application's presentation logic using these helper classes. I am using Poolman for connection pooling as I can't find anything else that has query caching.
I've timed my non-struts application and the STRUTS verson, but the queries I ran were not directly comparable - they were about the same-18 seconds/request for a vast amount of data, which is accepable in our environment.
Here's my question - eventually - My program creates over 100 beans per request, and in volume use presumably there will be a flux of thousands of beans per second. What happens to them? Are they cleaned up automatically at the end of each request? I noticed that by inspecting the name of beans in the request attribute (using Netbeans' HTTP monitor) that some names were reappearing in subsequest identical requests if I refreshed a page. I don't have any "destroy" or "kill" methods - do I need to implement these? Is my application going to bog down in garbage?
Any advice gratefully received.

As more couples put off marriage, brands scramble to encourage unions
PRO Trend Implications - Like buying a car or a house, marriage is viewed as a rite of passage into adulthood, but a distinct decrease in unions amidst Millennial couples is forcing brands to tailor wedding-centric goods to be more carefree and youthful as a way to encourage vow exchanges and tokens of affection. Providing cost-effective alternatives to lavish wares, brands are de-formalizing to be a more realistic option for Generation Y. As younger couples experience the hardships of job insecurity and longer time at home in the new millennium, brands are having no choice but to augment marriage to be more casual and personalized.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted 510(k) regulatory clearance to the Curvus Arrhythmia Monitoring Device (C-AD), a wireless-enabled and continuous tracker of real-time ECG readings. Curvus is a subsidiary of WPR Medical, which is based in Norway. C-AD will enter the market where a handful of other wireless cardiac monitoring companies are already playing: CardioNet, LifeWatch and the (recently FDA approved) Corventis Nuvant system among others.
It's worth highlighting Curvus' Norwegian roots. Interestingly, other Norwegian companies and entities have made mHealth related news in recent months, most notably the The Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation, Norad, announced a $1 million grant to the mHealth Alliance last month. Norwegian mobile operator Telenor has also been actively piloting aging in place initiatives in the country.
Curvus' offering — like other wireless ECG systems — includes three components: The sensors, the receiving/transmitting device, and the backend analytics.
The C-AD system uses a single-lead sensor with two electrodes and a mobile recorder that transmits via the unlicensed 2.4 GHz frequency. Curvus pitches the system as designed to facilitate "unencumbered cardiac monitoring of patients during the activities of daily living… because of its inconspicuous nature, the Curvus wireless solution also eliminates the stigma associated with wearing a Holter monitor." According to Curvus, the sensor can operate for 72 hours without any user interaction.
The receiver is a handheld device that receives data streams from the sensors for "permanent storage and analysis of irregular events," according to the company. The device runs over GSM/GPRS networks like AT&T or T-Mobile USA or via Bluetooth or "a wireless network," (which likely means WiFi).
Curvus supports the monitor with a data analysis service that crunches ECG data using "clinically established arrhythmia parameters."
Curvus originally began work on the system in 2003 when it created a prototype of the ECG sensor that demonstrated the device's wireless design principles. In 2006 the company began clinical trials with patients. In 2007 Curvus began the commercial design phase of C-AD, according to the company's corporate site.
"We are thrilled that Curvus has achieved regulatory clearance and can now be commercialized in the US," Borge Bogaard, Chief Executive Officer of Curvus, stated in a press release. "Due to the rapidly increasing burden of atrial fibrillation worldwide, we believe that expanded monitoring and diagnosis of these cardiac events combined with the release of several new anticoagulant drugs, will make a major contribution to control the disastrous worldwide burden of stroke. With its 100 percent wireless design and ability to transmit clear, actionable data whether the patient is resting, running a marathon or showering, we believe Curvus is well-positioned to expand monitoring broadly."

Bobby Jones received a World Series ring for his service with the Boston Red Sox in 2004, but these days he's running the South Bergen Mets and hoping to win a championship ring with them as well.
South Bergen won the Northeast Qualifier No.1 at Baseball Heaven in Yaphank, N.Y., last month to earn an automatic spot in the WWBA World Championship that will be held Oct. 21-25 at the Roger Dean Sports Complex in Jupiter, Fla.
"We're very excited to go down there and compete," Jones said. "It's a great opportunity for them to shine and see what the rest of the country has to offer."
Jones formed the South Bergen Mets in 2006, just two years after his Major League career came to an end due to injury. He spent six years in the big leagues with the Colorado Rockies, New York Mets, San Diego Padres and Red Sox, compiling a 14-21 record and 5.77 ERA.
Jones had a modest major league career and appeared in only three games for Boston in 2004 when they won the Series, but he got that ring and he compiled a wealth of baseball information along the way. Now he's passing that knowledge along to his players with the South Bergen Mets.
"I'm giving them a few of the things that I learned," he said.
The Mets had a 47-14-5 record when Jones spoke to Perfect Game on Sept. 9, with the highlight coming at the Northeast Qualifier No.1when they topped a field of 32 teams.
"It's been a very good year. I can't complain," Jones said.
"I'm very proud of the guys," he continued. "They've been trying to win that tournament (the Northeast Qualifier) since they were freshmen. To see it all the way through and battle, it's a special feeling."
The Mets have players from New Jersey, Connecticut and New York on their roster this year. Most of the players will graduate from high school in 2011, but there are a few underclassmen on the club as well.
South Bergen compiled a 6-0 record at the Northeast Qualifier. The Mets outscored their six opponents, 42-10, and beat the Farrah Builders Scout Team, 5-2, in the finals.
Eric Peterson, a 6-foot-4, 190-pound outfielder/first baseman from Hackettstown, N.J., was named the Most Valuable Player of that Northeast Regional. Eric Ashworth, a 6-3, 200-pound pitcher/third baseman from Orange, Conn., was named the Most Valuable Pitcher.
Peterson hit a two-run homer when the Mets defeated Baseball U AAA, 8-4, in the quarterfinals. That game was tied, 4-4, in the bottom of the sixth inning when the Mets scored four runs, including a pair on Peterson's roundtripper.
Peterson also was named the MVP of the CABA World Series in Ohio this year.
"He's been hot all summer," said Jones.
Ashworth tossed a two-hit shutout when the Mets blanked the Philadelphia Senators, 5-0, in the semifinals. He pitched a complete game with eight strikeouts.
"He's been a joy to coach," said Jones.
The Mets will participate in the Northeast Qualifier No.2 tournament this weekend (Sept. 11-13) at Baseball Heaven in another 32-team field, but they've already punched their ticket to Jupiter. Jones attended the WWBA Championships last year with a few of his players, but now he's going back with a full team.
"I just thought it was a fabulous event," he said.

So........ I was going through some supplies, deciding WHAT to use up next! Can you guess what part of this card was from a 'stash' of stuff just sitting around!?!?!?!? The striped piece you see on the card is actually a journal card that I got on a sheet from October Afternoon. I have several different designs, and was determined to use one as an element on a card! The boot stamp is a TAC stamp, and the saying, well, that's another story! I knew I wanted that sentiment - so would you believe I bought an ENTIRE word set just for THAT one? It is by Paper Smooches. Hope the card brings a smile to your face!
