Seeking a better impression, DPS director says his agency caught more drugs in border surge
AUSTIN – The Texas Department of Public Safety contributed to about 30 percent of the drugs seized in Operation Strong Safety's first 11 months, according to a DPS study of the narcotics taken in during the state's high-dollar surge at the Mexican border.
That statistical analysis – mentioned almost in passing last week at a meeting of the Texas Public Safety Commission – was commissioned to combat what DPS Director Steve McCraw described as the "impression that we had very little impact" on those seizures.
"That … doesn't make any sense," McCraw told the appointed five-member board, reiterating that the surge has been a success. "How's that possible, based upon what we know and what we see every day?"
The "impression" McCraw referenced was formed in large part by an Austin American-Statesman report in May that the agency — the public face of the state's law enforcement surge at the border — contributed to less than 10 percent of the operation's drug seizures.
It's unclear why DPS' in-house analysis differs from that report, though the DPS study does cover an additional five months. The agency would only confirm the stats; it declined to provide the analysis itself or respond to some questions about the data McCraw cited.
The DPS figures appear to be the agency's first attempt to quantify its share of the surge's results. That's been a point of contention for critics who argue that the agency might be taking credit from U.S. Border Patrol and other law enforcement along the border.
And while the agency's depiction is unlikely to change – one way or the other – the support for the surge among GOP lawmakers, it's also unlikely to allay Democrats who've criticized the state's $800 million border push over the next two years as a waste.
"If DPS claims that these are percentages, then this is the type of the data we are looking for," said Rep. Cesar Blanco, an El Paso Democrat who's pushed DPS for such information. "But I'm still skeptical. … I'd have to see more detailed information."
He added: "We need to make sure the money is spent in an effective way."
The border surge has dominated Texas politics since it began in summer 2014.
Former Gov. Rick Perry launched it to address an increase in illegal border crossings and Mexican drug cartel activity. Hundreds of DPS troopers, Texas National Guard soldiers and other law enforcement have since set up shop in the Rio Grande Valley.
DPS officials have touted the surge as a success, pointing to a drop in illegal crossings and the seizure of large amounts of drugs.
And the GOP-run Legislature agreed by passing a sweeping enhancement to solidify the state's presence along the border. That effort will feature the posting of some 250 additional state troopers at the border, along with other tools to boost enforcement.
In August, Gov. Greg Abbott touted in a campaign fundraising appeal what he called the "toughest border security plan of any state in the history of our nation."
"Texans are sick and tired of the federal government abandoning its responsibility to secure the border," the Republican wrote in an email to supporters. "In the absence of federal action, Texas is stepping up to get the job done."
But there have also been critics, especially since the surge's price tag was estimated in February to already be more than $100 million.
Some have argued that the decrease in illegal crossings from Mexico is the result of other factors. Others have questioned the nature of the surge, especially after the main federal agency in charge of border security said it didn't participate in the operation.
And there's been frustration over DPS' unwillingness to break down its direct role in the apprehensions, drug seizures and other stats used to tout the operation.
"We must disaggregate the state and local efforts from federal efforts to determine whether the state's use of additional funds did in fact further secure the Texas-Mexico border," U.S. Rep. Joaquin Castro, D-San Antonio, wrote in a letter in April.
To get a sense of DPS' contributions, the Statesman analyzed the agency's drug seizures in Starr and Hidalgo counties – the surge's location – during the operation's first six months. They then compared that to the overall stats DPS had provided for the surge.
The newspaper found that DPS had contributed to less than 10 percent of the marijuana seizures by weight and less than 15 percent of other drug seizures by weight.
A DPS spokesman at that time didn't dispute the numbers but said that "using one participating law enforcement agency's outputs from Operation Strong Safety to evaluate the operation's effectiveness is completely invalid."
The issue, however, clearly caught McCraw's attention.
The director said last week that analysts had been assigned to "go back and look at every incident that occurred." He said they looked at only seizures that DPS was "actually involved in or did ourselves" – from June 2014 to May 2015, officials said later.
The analysis found, DPS officials said, that the agency contributed to 30 percent by weight of the operation's marijuana seizures. That would be about 70 tons of pot taken in, using the operation's drug seizure totals from a report in early May.
For cocaine, it was 11 percent, or about 125 pounds. For methamphetamine, 3 percent, or nearly 33 pounds. And for heroin, 61 percent, or 67 pounds.
"Clearly, we were involved in those numbers," he said.
McCraw didn't provide the Public Safety Commission any detailed reasons for why the stats differed from those in the Statesman report.
Rather, he said that the media "may not have the background or education to understand the nuances" of different types of seizures. So some seizures may have been counted that shouldn't have, he said. Others may not have been counted that should have.
McCraw said the agency needs to be more responsive to those kinds of requests.
"It's important to have the data and have it in a way that's retrievable," he said.

Nine months after the terror attacks at a U.S. diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya, an audit of five "selected high threat level posts" of the State Department by the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) reveals cause for concern. The report found that the facilities in question failed to comply with current security standards and that "common physical and procedural security deficiencies" were found [emphasis added]:
The report presents the Office of Inspector General's (OIG) audit of Department compliance with physical and procedural security standards at selected high threat level posts...
OIG conducted physical security compliance reviews at the five posts and found that posts were not always in compliance with current physical security standards and that common physical and procedural security deficiencies occurred among the posts reviewed.
In one case, an increase in personnel actually had a detrimental effect on the implementation of the security plan for the post:
OIG also found that the Chiefs of Mission in two of the selected posts used their National Security Decision Directive 38 authority to increase post personnel levels in alignment with their mission strategic plans. However, personnel levels increased beyond or near the compounds' intended capacities, and at one post, this increase in personnel negatively affected the implementation of the post security program.
The full report is not yet posted, and the summary does not reveal the location of the five posts under review. Of the 24 recommendations made in the report to correct deficiencies, ten are closed or resolved, but fourteen remain "unresolved and require further management action before they can be resolved and closed."

New Comedies.
Unbelievable cast, not funny. Meh. Young Malin Akerman marries Josh from the West wing, inheriting his many children and several ex-wives as an extended family... The liquid sex lady from the News Room plays one of the exwives, I'm beginning to quite enjoy her company, but Trophy Wife is still not funny despite trying really hard to do all the obvious things a lot of other bad comedies already did decades ago.
Upper Middle Bogan
Australian comedy about an adopted 40 something swanky high society moneybags (hypochondriac) Doctor discovering she is in truth the progeny of hillbilly motorheads. Social schisms evolve as the two families integrate. I like it.
It's a Date
Comedy with no discernible continuity. A series of vinaigrettes focussing on different aspects of dating following a theme each week. Clever and funny, using the a-crop of recognisable Australian TV actors briefly removed from their usual "hit" shows.
Back in the Game.
Maggie Lawson is dreamy (and she had more lines here in 20 minutes than she did in the last two seasons of Psych.). Maggie plays a former jock, coaching her kids baseball team to smooth over the rough edges of his upbringing after a divorce from her ape husband forcing her to move in with her ape father. James Caan (A grouchier version of Archie Bunker.) reminded me of Stacey Keach from Titus, an emotionally mentally abusive/abrasive human being left to raise a child like a pet. So funny.
Welcome to the Family
Teen pregnancy, where the grandparents don't get along dealing with their children's ridiculous attempts "to do the right thing". Nothing new here, but whenever I see Mary McCormack I expect someone to get punched in the face eventually.This one could be a drama, Yawn.
Two of the blokes from the inbetweeners (plus one) as the only men in a small English village who did not chose to attend the first world war. They are pariah's and it's hilarious watching the women left behind try to destroy these three literally and psychologically, one who couldn't pass the medical, a conscientious objector and a moron/coward.
Pat and Cabbage
Just awful. The Odd Couple with two 60 year posh English ladies trying to pull the 5th Doctor Who and calamity follows.
This is free on hulu for yanks. Delightfully vulgar comedy set in cowboy times about a Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarvard educated ponce lawyer turned frontier gunslinger. The first episode is a little rough, but I've really come to enjoy this one.
Canadian comedy about flatting, a couple on the marriage track, living with a reprobate loser manchild shirking all responsibility to comical effect. Could have been made in the 90s, so it's more familiar and comfortable than clever, but there are so many enjoyable face palm moments when the male leads are just so incredibly wrong they should be shot. The female lead has really nice hair. Seriously, not a euphimism, it's stunning, and there's just so much of it.
The Goldbergs
You remember the Wonder Years? This is THAT verbatim all over again, but now set in the 80s. Wendi McLendon-Covey plays the smothering mother and I am drawn to her. The comedy revolves around a dysfunctionally average/normal family trying to do normal things the hardest way possible in front of a back drop of big hair, shoulder pads and MTV while being narrated by the 40 year old future self of the ten year old male lead. More slice of life than comedy but still quite satisfying.

The bogan mum is.. the most perfectly familiar person I've ever seen on tv. Don't I know her? Isn't she just down the street from me? So it seems. Fantastic acting, nuanced, comedic and oh so recognizable.
Ranga dimwit brother is hilarious.
Main character (the daughter who finds she is adopted) is the weakest link, but it's interesting how the one new sister she has the most friction with is the one she has the most in common with personality wise.
I'd recommend it to anyone with an Aus fetish. I'm also enjoying that it's Melbourne set, died laughing at the stupid lyrebird statue in the first episode. I hope I never get forced into going to that crap hole park again.

Photo: AP Photo/Eric Gay
Texas 34, Texas Tech 24 (Sept. 19, 2009 in Austin): Colt McCoy (pictured) threw a 3-yard touchdown pass to Dan Buckner in the fourth quarter that gave the Longhorns some room and No. 2 Texas beat feisty Texas Tech. McCoy finished with 205 yards and two interceptions on 24 of 34 passing for the Longhorns. Red Raiders quarterback Taylor Potts finished with 420 yards and three touchdowns. But he also had two fourth quarter turnovers, including a fumble on a sack by Sergio Kindle to set up McCoy's TD pass. "It was one of the harder hitting games I've been around," Mack Brown said. (AP)

When it comes to a modeling career, looks are everything. When it comes to a dog, personality is everything.
Getting a dog is like getting married. You don't date a dog — get together once or twice a week for a few months until you decide to take it to the next level. You don't break up with a dog, telling him it's not him, it's you. A dog is — you hope — the only relationship where you invite your special friend back to your place on the first date, and he or she never leaves.
In light of the uniqueness of the relationship, it's a good idea to know what you're looking for and how to find it.
But we're talking about dogs, right? How do you know what a dog's personality is like before you even bring him home?
Believe it or not, it's possible.
There are five simple tests virtually anyone can administer to get a pretty good feel for a dog's personality. These tests measure a dog's reaction to the following:
• your presence
• your voice
• the movement of your hand near his head and face
• the sound of foreign objects (e.g., car keys tossed to the ground)
• your touch (via the application of varying degrees of pressure to different parts of the body, including and especially sensitive parts of the body such as the paws, tail, back and hips, to determine pain tolerance).
These are simple tests, but they reveal a lot. A dog who reacts to your presence by jumping all over you is a very different dog from the one who saunters up to you in his own good time. A dog who shies away or ducks as your hand approaches his face requires a different approach from a dog who views the presence of your hand as a game.
A dog with a low tolerance for pain warrants more careful and sensitive play and handling than a dog with very high pain tolerance.
None of these reactions is wrong or right, but they are telling. Your job is to know the reaction you're looking for and correctly interpret the reaction you get.
To learn more about the five personality tests and how to properly administer them, read "When Good Dogs Do Bad Things," by Mordecai Siegal and myself, available at Amazon or your favorite bookstore.
And if you need help finding the right dog for you, know that there are professional dog trainers and behaviorists in your area who provide this service — who ask you questions to get you thinking about your lifestyle, your energy, your wants and needs, who go with you to the shelter, who administer these tests, who interpret the results and who make a recommendation.
Ultimately, the decision is yours.
And the decision is big — so do everything you can to get it right.
Dog trainer Matthew "Uncle Matty" Margolis is co-author of 18 books about dogs and host of the PBS series "WOOF! It's a Dog's Life!" Send your questions to dearuncle.gazette@ unclematty.com or P.O. Box 3300, Diamond Springs, CA 95619.

I feel that many website and forum owners, pay too much attention to PR. The most important factor in the success of your site is the quality of your content and the service you provide to your members.
Actually I think that PR is st very important,even vital with any coorporation.
One new coorporation can take a long time to find out a stay in competitive market.And if they wait for their reputation will be raised by quality of their content and service,there will be many companys will seize opportunities from PR advantages bring about.
Generally,should be harmony among PR and website content building
I don't think pageranks are too important . It's the content and the look that would attract users .
Its a little overrated, but you can't complain about having a PR8 domain, can't you?
PR is abit overrated but it still important. It is showing how important your site and PR also helps in SERP
Just thinking and analyzing about Page Rank. Isn't it a trap for webmasters?
I had tried to explain about Page Rank to some of my customers, friends and other personally known persons and they don't know about PR.
After I explain them, they get the idea, but 99% of them don't know what it is for.
And I see every webmaster worried about PR when buying and selling links (including myself)
Is it really PR worth to keep us concentrated end entertained on its metrics?
What is your thought?
google probably is even confuse whats its use for if its not the basis for being an authority site.
I posted a similar thread some time back... I am finding it hard to get external advertisers only because of this PR...the PR of my job site is 0 though alexa rank is 456592 :(
I see it as one of the many parameters that can help ranking.I barely look after it.
Yet you would give one of your kidney for a Pr9 backlink.

Japan entitled to preemptive strike if threat imminent: Defense Minister
When an intention to attack Japan is evident, the threat is imminent, and there are no other options, Japan is allowed under the law to carry out strikes against enemy targets." Japanese Defense Minister Itsunori OnoderaJapanese Defense Minister Itsunori Onodera says Tokyo is "allowed under the law" to develop the ability to launch a preemptive strike against an impending attack. "When an intention to attack Japan is evident, the threat is imminent, and there are no other options, Japan is allowed under the law to carry out strikes against enemy targets," Onodera said on Thursday.
The Japanese minister, however, stated that given Japan's political environment as well as the peace-oriented diplomacy that the country observes, "This is not the time to make preparations (for building such capability)."The comments came two days after North Korea carried out its latest nuclear test, which drew condemnation from several countries including Japan, South Korea and the United States. On February 12, North Korea announced that it had successfully carried out its third underground nuclear test, which involved "miniaturized" device and was conducted in a "perfect manner." The UN Security Council said in a statement on February 12, "There continues to exist a clear threat to international peace and security." Members of the Council would "begin work immediately on appropriate measures in a Security Council resolution," the statement added. Highlighting Japan's need to reinforce its ballistic missile defense in response to what he called a 'North Korean threat,' Onodera added that Pyongyang is expected to "boost various capabilities further." "We need to improve corresponding capabilities as well," the Japanese defense minister stated. MR/HSN

Rated 4 out of 5 by nfreeman45 from Durable and High Quality I bought this mattress pad a few months ago, and so far I have no complaints. It seems durable and is constructed with high quality organic materials. I gave a 4-star rating because I had expected more depth to the mattress pad. Overall I was satisfied with my purchase.

Rated 4 out of 5 by malil from Just Fine This product is fine. It made our mattress that was a little to firm just right. It's also nice to have a little bit of a barrier between us and the mattress to cut down on the off gassing (as kind of a half-step until you can afford to buy a mattress that doesn't off-gas at all.) It's big, but our washer seems to be able to handle it OK.

A Painted Nail in the Coffin of Education; Social Engineering: Gender Lessons Are Proposed by Those with Their Own Agenda
Byline: Katie Grant
ANYONE contemplating a career in primary school education may quietly beshelving their ambitions this morning, having learned their future duties willinclude teaching their small charges about 'gender identity', ie, why it's OKif Dad wants to dress as Mum or if Charlotte suddenly decides to be known asCharles.
An 'expert' (naturally) huddle of educationalists, equal rights campaigners andcommunity groups have written a report for Scottish ministers sayingtransgender, gay and bisexual issues are appropriate classroom fodder forprimary children - and, like nodding donkeys, Scottish ministers are likely toconcur.
I have nothing against transgender people but I have everything against thisludicrous proposal. For reasons obvious to anybody with one ounce of commonsense, such 'issues' have absolutely no place in a primary school. But what iseven more worrying than the spreading of sexual confusion in the prepubescentis the educational message such a proposal sends out to both the Scottishpublic and the wider world.
In recent years, with the rise of hugely powerful pressure groups, often withpartisan sexual interests, the academic content of Scottish schooling has beenwhittled away and replaced by social and moral engineering.
Never mind that more than half our 14-year-olds can barely read, it'scross-dressing that matters. Never mind that fewer than half of 11-yearolds cando basic arithmetic, so long as the boys can happily wear lipstick.
Denigration It's not only in state schools that this creeping denigration ofreal education is going on. Government inspectors ensure that in someindependent schools, personal and social education is given greater prioritythan physics - and God help poor old Latin, which is being increasinglysidelined, as though a working knowledge of Cicero is somehow an elitistembarrassment when a class could be studying chlamydia, cottaging or condoms.
The watchword of the day is, of course, 'relevance', a word that has beenhijacked to justify every assault on the kind of education parents want fortheir children and increasingly don't get. No debate on education is completewithout somebody condemning history or algebra as 'irrelevant' and gettingcompliant schoolchildren to join in the chorus of disapproval.
Yet, while relevance certainly has a place in the educational spectrum, Isometimes think that our political masters have actually forgotten what, in aschool context, the word means.
School is not just about preparing for life, it's about learning how to get themost out of it. Maths teaches children accuracy. Reading and writing are aboutcommunication.
History teaches us lessons for the future. Geography keeps us from believing weare the centre of the universe.
Learning a foreign language, one of the things that often gets discarded, isrelevant because it opens you up to how languages are constructed and to howother cultures work. If you don't end up speaking fluent French, that stilldoesn't make it a waste of time. You'll know something more about France.
Above all, when you leave school, you should know that knowledge itself, ofwhatever subject, is power. Get a child to understand that and the cry 'it'snot relevant' soon dies away.
This is not to say that the whole school day must be spent poring over books.I'm all for domestic science classes turning out children who can producedecent macaroni cheese and know the difference between a cabbage and acauliflower. …

Indianapolis Motor Speedway officially opened for the month of May with a chaotic road course race that started with a wreck, saw James Hinchliffe and the mayor of the city injured by flying debris, and, finally, Simon Pagenaud celebrate a fuel-mileage victory.
Pagenaud won the inaugural Grand Prix of Indianapolis on Saturday, the first IndyCar Series race on IMS' road course, by stretching his fuel the final 29 laps.
The Frenchman was one of several drivers to gamble on gas, and he took the lead when Oriol Servia had to stop with four laps remaining. Pagenaud managed to make it to the finish for his third series victory despite having to keep an eye on his mirrors.Carlos Munoz, Helio Castroneves, IndyCar, Mikhail Aleshin, Ryan Hunter-Reay, Sebastian Saavedra, Simon Pagenaud

I could imagine this in a something like a FLASH (Animated) video game. It makes me think of waiting for something important like ammunition in a crate or a new rank. Awesome song!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Very nice.
It's an awesome piece, it's perfect for well, a military complex! It's got a nice beat, the breath of the organized, yet somewhat military tone most people see. Personally, I think this is an excellent work, and you should totally keep going! BTW, what's the name of the upcoming game?
Rated 5 / 5 stars
very interesting indeed. I like it! And it loops nicely as well!
I love the vision I get from this song. I can just picture myself escaping from a military base, fighting soldiers along the way to the exit. Probably isn't what's going on in that upcoming game, but that's what I imagine lol.
No problems here. Good job!

WMG: Pretty Cure Mirai Spark
Hiroko has a greater affinity for antiquity than the rest of the cast.She doesn't like pink, and yet she's the girliest of the initial Power Trio. In short, she displays True Blue Femininity more than anything, and it seems clear that she was born in the wrong decade by that clue alone. Either that, or this series is set in the 1950's or the 1960's and thus overflowing with Anachronism Stew.
Someday, the current Pretty Cure will become Barrier Maidens too.Being a Barrier Maiden is a trait passed down from one team to another. After the current threat is vanquished, the Cures will become Barrier Maidens once the new generation awakens. (Shun will become one as well, being a special heroine.)
Some citizens of the Devil Kingdom are transformed humans.Word of God: While none of the main antagonists we've seen are transformed humans, some humans have ended up finding their way to that world and (usually voluntarily) being transformed into demons. (The reverse has happened as well.) Additionally, while I'm not naming names, one of the antagonists does have human blood in them.

Re: Security Grade
- From: lauren.malhoit@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
- Date: 7 Dec 2007 13:03:03 -0000
I think it's all pretty relative. Microsoft recommends doing either a qualitative risk analysis or quantitative (or both). In one case you assign the odds of the risk of a specific attack a number (1-10) and assign the severity of the risk a number (ie will it cause business to shut down or something). Then you multiply those two numbers and it gives you a risk assessment. In the other case, you take the actual money (both directly and indirectly) that might be lost and multiply that times however many times that would probably happen in a year.
It's a little more scientific than that (although not much), but you get the gist.

Newspaper article The Christian Science Monitor
System Error, Reboot Mind ; New Theory Claims That Brains Catch Ideas the Way Computers Catch Software Viruses
Article excerpt
Two assumptions underlie much contemporary study of the human condition: First, that humans are nothing more than complex, organic machines. Second, that as we learn to build more complex machines, their internal workings will increase our understanding of the human machine.
Some biologists believe that the role of DNA in biology and evolution goes a long way toward justifying the first of these assumptions.
In this view, genes that produce loving humans survive because the children of such parents are more likely to survive. Similarly, genes that produce people who believe in God are more likely to survive because such people are less anxious and less vulnerable to disease produced by stress.
In this way, some biologists believe they can give an evolutionary explanation for many of the characteristics that we associate with being human. However, as Robert Aunger points out in his new book, "The Electric Meme," DNA cannot be the whole story.
If we really want to reduce everything human to the operation of a complex organic machine, we must also explain why people gossip and climb mountains when there is no survival benefit to genes that produce such people.
Aunger credits biologist Richard Dawkins with the next step in reducing humans to machines. According to Dawkins, not only are humans controlled by the brains and bodies that genes give them but also by ideas that they catch from other humans.
Such ideas - Dawkins and Aunger call them memes - have their own evolutionary history. Some of them survive, spread, and prosper. Others fail and disappear. "The idea is - to be only somewhat cute - the idea of infectious ideas."
In order to give substance to this theory of memes, Aunger turns to the second assumption - that the complex machines we have learned to build can help us understand the human machine. In this case, he argues that because the modern computer is something like a brain, then a brain might very well be vulnerable to something like a computer virus.
"A computer is like an organism in many respects," he writes. In this analogy, an activity like mountain climbing, that would soon die out if it were genetically produced, may spread like a computer virus from brain to brain. …

) recently reported its Q3 2010 earnings. Based on improvements
observed in profit margins and advertising revenues, we have
our price estimate for CBS's stock to $18.08.
CBS traditionally competes with media conglomerates like Disney (
), News Corp (
) and Time Warner (
) in the broadcasting and cable networks businesses.
While the company is doing well on most fronts, its publishing
division Simon & Schuster continues to see softening sales. The
publishing revenues
have declined from close to $900 million in 2007 to close to $800
million in 2009, and are further expected to decline in 2010. In
our forecast, we estimate that Simon & Schuster and CNet
together account for around 8% of our stock price estimate.
The bright side is that the growth in digital publishing is
offsetting the decline in traditional publishing and could well
drive revenue growth in the near future given the increased
adoption of e-books and greater use of tablets as e-reading
Digital Publishing is Still Small
The company stated in its recent earnings that e-books now
constitute around 7% of its total publishing revenue and will
continue to be a growing part of the revenue base. This amounts to
a little over $15 million in revenues compared to close to $218
million for the total publishing business in Q3 2010.
Given its relatively smaller size, digital publishing (in the
form of e-books) has not been able to completely offset the decline
in revenues from traditional publishing. However we expect this
could change, and we expect to see the publishing division revenues
could rebound in 2011 driven by increased amount of digitally
published content and an improving economy.
Growing e-book Market
According to Forrester Research, the e-book market in the US is
expected to hit close to $966 million in 2010. This amounts to
close to 100 million e-books sold assuming an average price of $10
per e-book. Furthermore, Forrester predicts that this market will
nearly triple itself by 2015, amounting to close to $3 billion.
Apart from dedicated e-readers, growing use of tablets like Apple's
iPad are also driving sales of e-books. Longer term, we believe
this presents an opportunity for publishers like CBS (Simon &
Schuster) to recoup its declining publishing revenues.

A Dragon Figurine of Jade valued at 20 Gold given to the kobold queen.
These hero's set out to investigate the gorge and the Citadel therein....and now 3 days later, no word...no sign...and the town begins to fret. Mayor Hucrele has put the call out for those who would take up arms and go in search of the Heroes of Oakhurst.
While she considered herself no hero, Tae heard the mayor's call even in her small hovel on the outskirts of the small town. One of her many 'voices' told her of it and her heart leapt in her chest. She wasn't sure why at first. She had known all along, had felt it from the beginning, that the earthquake was no natural event. That the entire party sent to investigate it might be lost was sad indeed. But what was her connection to it? Surely she had none. But the voices wouldn't let her rest... exhorted and pushed her into action.
Tae finished the tea she was making for Lorna's cough, and packaged it up. Rather than simply run over to her house and drop it off, she dressed for travel, gathered up a pack, and headed into town. After stopping off at Lorna's with the tea, she headed to the mayor's office, her footsteps almost strange to her, as if she were following a course she wasn't directing herself. "Quiet, be quiet, all of you." She spoke aloud but softly, knowing the voices could hear her and hoping the townsfolk couldn't. They already thought her odd, why add fuel to the fire? She followed the voices, for to do otherwise would lead to madness, she was sure of it.
When she got to the mayor's office, she was struck with second thoughts. She was never really accepted in town, and now she wanted their acceptance on a quest to find the town's heroes? What was she thinking? She looked around in panic, but was alone in the waiting room. Was no one else answering the call, or were they already all in with the mayor? She waited nervously...
What was I thinking? How could I be chosen for this, they don't like me, few trust me, though they do trust my remedies. But surely, they will know an honest offer to help when they hear it.
When others began to arrive she greeted them with a smile. "Hello," she said, though she gave no name. It was a small town and surely everyone knew the madwoman who made herbal cures and remedies.

In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Velsheda wins J Class race after 3 hour battle with Ranger in Newport
Had you been sailing in the vicinity of Newport harbour, USA, yesterday, you would have come across a remarkable sight; two J class yachts, Velsheda and Ranger, in an epic three hour battle around the Harbour.
This was the last race in a private three race series that was a pre-cursor to the Newport Bucket, unfortunately cancelled due to the imminent arrival of Hurricane Irene. The race started in a 20 knot breeze alongside Fort Williams with a classic slog through the harbour entrance. The yachts turned the top mark almost parallel to power their way back into the harbour under spinnaker, under the central arch of the Newport Bridge, to a bottom turning mark.
The few spectators who, by chance, found themselves watching yacht racing history unfold were totally absorbed by these J Class yachts - dating back to America's Cup racing in the 1930s. Sheer size, power, tactics, crew work and boat speed kept the boats locked together within a couple of lengths for more than three hours. In this last race it was Vesheda who crossed the line first, leaving us with the thrilling promise of even more enthralling and spectacular sailing when a fleet of J's race together in the UK in June 2012.

Hi, My name is Geoff.
I just registered on here, because I have a bunch of questions, and the car forum I was asking on wasn't very helpful. I've looked at this site a few times, and finally decided to register. Because of my "creeping" I found out about MMM, and I'm looking forward to doing the 50k in June.
I started riding last summer (June ish 2010), mainly because I've always had a gut, and wanted to loose it. Several thing actually combined to get me going. I got a new phone (HTC Incredible) that allowed GPS tracking. I also used Google to find out about the bike trails. Those two things and the fact that I could track my routes and count my burned calories provided a good start. After a few rides I realized in order to extend my distance, I needed to be able to carry more water. I had heard of a "camelbak" before. After a bit of research and a quick trip to Bass pro I had all I needed. I began a few weekly rides, and by the end of the season I had a daily 20 mile route, that I actually did everyday!
I didn't see a place for a "Ride thread", so I'll mix them in on here. I have 3 bikes, an OLD Mongoose, a newer trek, and some kinda of crossover bike. I'll edit this post once I have pictures of them. I do have some questions, but I know typical forum rules so I'll make individual threads for each one.
Trek 7200. This is my moms bike. But as I'm the only one who rides, it's become mine
Trek 3700. This used to be my sisters bike, but her use of it was even more scarce then my mom, so it also became mine.
Mongoose. This is "Old Faithful". It used to be my Dads, when he passed on it became mine. Ironically, it's the only bike that hasn't broken mid ride, not counting that flat....
I'm looking forward to becoming an active member on here, especially once it warms up.

Texas A&M Aggies
Photos: Six Louisiana Tech football players that Texas A&M fans should know for Saturday
Photo: Arely D. Castillo/AP
Ray Holley, RB: The Bulldogs suffered a big blow when speedster Tevin King was lost for the season with a torn ACL. And while Holley, a senior, can't come close to matching King's game-breaking ability, he's done an admirable job filling in as the Dogs' No. 2 back while adding an extra dimension to the passing game. Just 5-foot-9, Holley is sturdily built, preferring to run through defenders instead of by them (which was King's M.O.). And while the Ags won't have to worry about Holley breaking a big one – his career long run is 26 yards – he's the most complete back the Bulldogs have at the moment.

Linux Code Freeze
In short, the next version of Linux (0.99.15) will be a "full-featured" release, and only obvious bug-fixes to existing features will be applied before calling it 1.0. If this means that your favourite feature or networking version won't make it, don't despair: there is life even after beta (and it's probably not worth mailing me about it any more: I've seen quite a few favourite features already ;-).
In fact, 1.0 has little "real meaning", as far as development goes, but should be taken as an indication that it can be used for real work (which has been true for some time, depending on your definition of "real work"). Development won't stop or even slow down: some of it has even been shelved pending a 1.0 already.
Calling it 1.0 will not necessarily make all bugs go away (quite the opposite, judging by some other programs), but I hope it will be a reasonably stable release. In order to accomplish this, the code-freeze after 0.99.15 will be about a month, and I hope people will test out that kernel heavily, instead of waiting for "the real release" so that any potential bugs can be found and fixed.
As to where we are now: as of this moment, the latest release is the `r' version of pl14 (aka "ALPHA-pl14r"). I've made ALPHA releases available on ftp.funet.fi almost daily, and expect a final pl15 within a few more days. Testing out the ALPHA releases is not discouraged either if you like recompiling kernels every day or two..
And finally: we also try to create a "credits" file that mentions the developers of the kernel and essential Linux utilities. The credit file compilator is firstname.lastname@example.com (John A. Martin), and if you feel you have cause to be mentioned in it, please contact him.

Like many other Americans, I'm looking forward to the dedication of the Martin Luther King Jr. National Memorial Sunday in Washington, D.C.
Personally, I've been to the National Mall several times, including the first Million Man March in 1995 and various anniversaries of the 1963 March on Washington that featured King's famous "I Have a Dream" speech.
It's exciting to realize the next time I go, a national memorial for the country's most revered civil rights leader will stand shoulder-to-shoulder with other American heroes like Abraham Lincoln, George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.
King will be the first African-American - or the first individual honoree who wasn't a white male - to hold such exalted status.
(Quick history lesson: Lincoln is credited with abolishing slavery by issuing the Emancipation Proclamation during the Civil War. Washington, the first president, and Jefferson, the third, were both slave owners.)
A statue of King also has stood in Milwaukee along N. King Drive just north of Walnut St. since 1998; the image of King with an outstretched hand has come to define that neighborhood.
The work was done by artist Erik Blome, a white sculptor from Illinois. In 2004, I interviewed Blome after he was involved in a dispute over another King statue he made for Rocky Mount, N.C.
While most black Milwaukeeans accepted Blome's image of King with little reservation, he was shocked when his statue - and his skin color - became a political issue among some in North Carolina.
For his part, Blome couldn't see why someone like King belonged to any one group over another.
The same objections were heard in D.C. when Chinese artist Lei Yixin - considered a master sculptor in his country - was chosen to do the King memorial statue over numerous other candidates, including several African-Americans.
As always, King remains a controversial figure.
Some people continue to debate whether the ideals mentioned in King's most famous speech - particularly, "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character" - have come close to being realized yet.
Some argue if society has fallen short, it's due to the failure of black Americans who haven't managed to find success, even though most of the restraints placed on blacks during an earlier time have been removed. Others insist that despite more access to education and opportunity for blacks - and even the first African-American president - skin color still does matter.
The debate goes on, with many conceding that when it comes to race relations, things are much better than they used to be but could still stand some improvement.
I plan to make it a point to see the King memorial on my next visit to D.C. It feels important because the King memorial represents not just one man but countless other brave individuals who contributed to the civil rights movement.
I also look forward to the day when other groups - women, Latinos, Native Americans, etc. - who played important roles in the American story also get their time in the spotlight on the National Mall.
After all, everybody has their own dream.

text: Can I ask what may be a dumb question - How critical is enlarger alignment. I am still new to darkroom and I am often swinging the lensboard around to correct verticals. I just line it back up with the centre marks - its a grips screw and slot arrangement. using a focus finder seems to show me that centralising gets the same focus across the baseboard quite easily. Is there not a depth of field on the enlarged image that gives some tolerance anyway? I am not getting this micro-adjustment or am I missing something.

From Protest to Resistance (Updated over a year ago)
Please note: copyright to From Protest to Resistance is held by WNET. All rights reserved. WNET is the premier public media provider of the New York metropolitan area and parent of public television stations THIRTEEN and WLIW21. From Protest to Resistance was originally produced by KQED for National Educational Television (NET) - the predecessor of WNET - and first aired in 1968. A documentary film from 1968 produced by the KQED Film Unit, which in the words of narrator Richard Moore: "Is about three veterans of Mississippi [of the Civil Rights movement] who have become peace spokesman for the new opposition activist. It traces their thought and action over the past year, as they see themselves moving from demonstration to political organizing." Features interviews, speeches and political reflections from Mario Savio ("for the new radical politics"), Stokely Carmichael ("speaks for Black Power") and David Harris ("for the non-violent draft resistance"). At one point, Savio expresses his opinion that: "Protest doesn't work and it's something which is very clear now." All three men are wrestling with how to change the direction of U.S. domestic and foreign policy and are united in their opposition to the Vietnam War. Includes scenes of mass demonstrations, arrests and also interviews and speeches by: President Lyndon Johnson; Robert Vaughn; Suzanne Goldberg (Savio's first wife); William Appleman Williams; Herbert Marcuse and Bobby Seale. This film was directed by Richard Moore, Saul Landau and Irving Saraf, with additional photography by Philip Greene. It should be noted that the use of music by Country Joe and the Fish has been edited out of several scenes, due to copyright issues. This is indicated by subtitles. The TV Archive would like to thank Irving Saraf, for loaning us his 16mm optical print of this film.

Art at Discovery Green
The designers of Discovery Green incorporated art installations throughout the park, including interactive pieces that invite visitors to have a little fun. Great care was taken to ensure the installations would be visually prominent yet nestled within the park's environs. Many of the works are by well-known artists, including Doug Hollis, whose Mist Tree (shown at left) is the latest of his water-jet sculptures designed for outdoor spaces around the U.S. His large interactive Gateway Fountain (at right) entices children to cool down from the heat.

So I had a terrible accident in Sept when riding. Thankfully I was not awake when I fell off the horse, I had passed out before hitting the ground so I do not remember it... I remember the recovery tho...Since then my confidence and riding has been horribly shaken. I am back riding but I am still finding it very difficult. When I had my accident I had a concussion, two pelvic fractures and a finger fracture. I always ride with a helmet. But lately I am considering getting a riding vest and hoping that it will give me that added comfort of safety. I know I will fall again and I am SCARED butI know it will happen.
Any thoughts on a riding vest.. does it help? Safety and confidence?

After two days of trying to get the app to work and emailing the tech support people, they finally let me know that they have nothing for Mac users. Go figure, in the 21st century people are still ignoring Mac users.

Speaking of which, TIME TO WATCH! #3.1 Agree(2) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply tigertron + 1076d ago Yeah, I mean she even has her own version, although I prefer the original. #3.1.1 Agree(1) | Disagree(0) | Report HarvesterOSarow + 1076d ago I agree. Her voice is cute, although weird lol but the original is top-notch. #3.1.2 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report Pozzle + 1075d ago She's putting on a cutesy voice for her version of Gangnam Style. Her actual singing voice is pretty decent though... https://www.youtube.com/wat... https://www.youtube.com/wat... #3.1.3 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report Add comment You need to be registered to add comments.
