It's almost that time of year again, football season that is. You can feel the season in the air as you hear about the players reporting back to Nashville for the Tennessee Titans training camp.
Check-in began this morning at 7 a.m. and defensive end Kamerion Wimbley was the first to report. When the guys arrived they were giving a packet that had things like their room key, and ID badge and parking pass with a check-in form. Sounds an awful lot like those summer camps you went to in high school and college doesn't it?
"To be back and to be around the guys, it feels like you're back home, when you come in today, it's like the first day of school", stated linebacker Gerald McGrath.
The players were required to check in to numerous stations before they could be ready to take part in training camp. They were required to report by 11 a.m. and according to Titans' Vice President of Business and Operations, Stuart Spears, over half of the roster was checked in by 9 a.m.
Many of the players were just excited to get back on the grind, like wide receiver Marc Mariani, who will try to prove his value this season. "You're counting down the days and it's finally here. I think the optimism around here is a good thing, and we're ready to win some football games."
This afternoon's activities consisted of mainly meetings and a conditioning test that were both hosted by assistant head coach and strength & conditioning, Steve Watterson.
This first official practice of training camp will be tomorrow and the first practice that is open to fans will be on Sunday from 6:30-8:30 CT. You can see the full training camp schedule here.
First preseason game is two weeks away. Hold on to your hats football fans, it's going to be a heck of a season.

Eight Days a Week
Feb. 27-March 6, 2002
HOW CAN A performance convey something as immense as the decolonization of Africa in the 20th century? How's this for a start: 60 artists, four dance companies, and the traditions of three African nations creating one giant allegory in music and dance. The brainchild of UC Berkeley ethnomusicologist, choreographer, and composer C.K. Ladzekpo, Kusum Africa (Expanding the tradition of Africa) is the centerpiece of the African Choreographers Forum, which showcases the highest achievements in contemporary dance and drumming in Africa and abroad. The piece tells the story of a royal family beset by an illegitimate ruler and draws inspiration from Ghana's Bokum Square uprising, part of the agitation against British colonialism that in 1957 made Ghana (formerly the Gold Coast) the first sub-Saharan colony to gain independence. In the only West Coast presentation of this singular event, Ladzekpo and his African Music and Dance Ensemble are joined by the National Dance Company of Ghana, Ballet Merveilles de Guinea, and Fua Dia Congo, under the artistic direction of Francis Nii-Yartey, Kemoko Sano, and Malonga Casquelourd, respectively. Fri/1-Sat2, 8 p.m., Zellerbach Hall, UC Berkeley, Bancroft at Telegraph, Berk. $18-$30. (510) 642-9988. (Robert Avila)

Dead funny Ghosts have always been popular in the theater, but few are as witty as the titular character in Noël Coward's Blithe Spirit. A writer, his wife, and the ghost of his ex-wife form an intriguing love triangle in this "light comedy about death" by the quintessential British wit. Written during the London blitz of 1941, this was Coward's contribution to the war effort: making people laugh in the face of fear. Director Charles Randolf-Wright, known for his radical reinterpretations of the classics (including American Conservatory Theater's 1999 production of Tartuffe), offers a faithful rendering of the World War II setting for this ACT production. Thurs/28 is a "bring what you can/pay what you wish" performance: bring a donation to benefit Raphael House, a shelter and support program for homeless families in the Tenderloin, and pay any amount you wish. Through March 24. Opens tonight, 8 p.m. Runs Tues.-Sat., 8 p.m. (Tues/5, show at 7 p.m.; also Wed. and Sat. , 2 p.m., except Wed/27 and March 13); Sun., 2 p.m., Geary Theater, 415 Geary, S.F. $15-$61. (415) 749-2228. (Lara Shalson)
Richmond swing When the Balboa Theater opened in 1926, San Francisco was celebrating its 150th anniversary, Prohibition was the law (but loosely enforced), and baseball's San Francisco Seals ruled the Pacific Coast League. The city's newest movie palace originally called the New Balboa shared a design team with the Cliff House and the Fairmont Hotel, among other landmarks; back then, as now, it hosted second-run engagements of high-caliber films. Today, under the guiding hand of Landmark Theatres cofounder Gary Meyer, the Balboa continues to screen choice double-feature combinations (recent example: Mulholland Drive with Wisconsin Death Trip), and they even let you in for free on your birthday. Today, mark this venerable venue's 76th anniversary by re-creating a 1920s movie outing: take in a screening of Buster Keaton's masterpiece The General, accompanied by Richard "Scrumbly" Koldewyn on the piano, thrill to magician James Hamilton, and mingle with members of the Art Deco Society of California for birthday cake. Period-appropriate costumes are encouraged. 7:30 p.m., Balboa Theater, 3630 Balboa, S.F. $7.50, $4.50 seniors and under 12. (415) 221-8184. (Cheryl Eddy)
Feb. 28
Swedish evil One of the most overhyped movements of the past couple years was the Scandinavian Invasion. When boiled down to their base elements, most of the "next big things" (exempting the mighty Nomads) were nothing but half-assed metal bands with poor personal hygiene. Demons, on the other hand, cut their teeth on the Motor City sound of the MC5 and the Lower East Side vibe of Johnny Thunders. Add a dash of Animalized vocals and the distinct Swedish superpower sound developed by the above-mentioned Nomads, and you have the foundation for some pretty substantial noise. They didn't exactly light the room up on their last trip out, but any band with such a sure understanding of what the Stooges, Radio Birdman, and the Dictators stood for deserves your attention. And they're certainly the cream of the Nordic crop. They kick off their American tour tonight with the Go-Nuts and Radio Reelers. 9:30 p.m., Justice League, 628 Divisadero, S.F. $10. (415) 289-2038. (John O'Neill)
Hot ink Ever wonder what it takes to write good smut? Or how those dirty minds who create it really work? M. Christian's new anthology, Burning Pen: Sex Writers on Sex Writing, answers those questions and more, dispelling the many myths that surround erotica writers and their craft. Bringing together the best and brightest of today's smuterati, this thought-provoking collection offers insightful reflections from the writers on their favorite subjects and illustrates their prurient points with steamy stories of their choice. Tonight contributors Patrick Califia-Rice, Carol Queen, and other local writers read their work. 7:30 p.m., Books Inc., 2275 Market, S.F. Free. (415) 864-6777. (Alissa Chadburn)

Creative capital If your walls are still papered with black-light posters and Nagel portraits, it's time to upgrade. Start with the amazing bargains at 'The Lab's Sixth Annual Fixed Price Art Sale and Live Auction,' an event that helps support visual arts programming at the multimedia alternative gallery. Selling for a mere 50 to 250 bucks, the nearly 200 donated works are by artists who offer a mix of stature and sensibility, including Ed Ruscha, Isabel Samaras, Harrell Fletcher, Rachael Neubauer, Annie Sprinkle, and Bay Guardian Goldie Award recipient Reuben Lorch-Miller. Since the art goes fast, arrive early to have first dibs. Tonight, 6:30-9 p.m.; Sat.-Sun., 1-6 p.m., the Lab, 2948 16th St., S.F. Tonight $7-$15, Sat.-Sun. free. (415) 864-8855, www.thelab.org.

Salma who? Frida Kahlo, the painter with the "bird wing" brows a feature immortalized in her more than 200 self-portraits has been the subject of numerous biographies, plays, and dance pieces, as well as an opera. It's fitting that art should continue to reflect upon her life and work, since Kahlo's own painting was driven by a desire to escape the painful reality of her life (a bus accident when she was 18 resulted in lengthy hospital stays, numerous surgeries, and ultimately her early death at the age of 47) and to re-create it through her fantastical renderings of herself. Tonight, Portland's Teatro Milagro presents a bilingual one-act performance titled Frida: un retablo, the company's surrealistic take on the "art imitating life imitating art" conundrum. 8 p.m., Mission Cultural Center, 2868 Mission, S.F. $10-$12. (415) 821-1155. (Shalson)
March 3
Center of attention It's official: the San Francisco Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Community Center is finally opening. Come out for the official ribbon-cutting ceremony and opening reception, where you'll have the opportunity to take a tour of the new digs and visit the 23 agencies that will be housed there. Work by local artists will be displayed throughout the building in "Jewels in a Jewel Box," an exhibit inaugurating the center's commitment to becoming a venue for the visual arts. Opening-week events include a square-dancing party on Monday, a "Queer Women of Color Film Night" on Tuesday, and a "Leather Pride Reception" on Thursday. Saturday you'll have to choose between two exciting events happening simultaneously: "Some Kind of Queer: A Party for Trans Drag, Intersex, Genderqueer and Beyond" and "Bi and for the People," both featuring a plethora of performance artists, local bands, stand-up comics, and spoken word artists. Ribbon-cutting ceremony 1 p.m.; open house 2-4 p.m., San Francisco Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Community Center, 1800 Market, S.F. Free (all other events $5-$15; no one turned away for lack of funds). For a complete listing of events go to www.sfcenter.org. (Shalson)
Word up As a matter of fact, the F-Word Project doesn't refer to that. Rather, this weeklong festival, which includes International Women's Day (Fri/8), is a celebration of feminism, addressing issues that affect contemporary women from all cultures and of all ages. A variety of venues across the Bay Area host more events than it's possible to list here, but here's a sampling: today at the Berkeley Art Museum (3 p.m., 2626 Bancroft, Berk.) artist Sowon Kwon discusses her exhibit average female (Perfect); Tues/5 a new exhibition, Fem-Art, opens at the Diego Rivera Gallery, followed by "Femme Totale," a screening of works from the International Women's Film Festival (6 and 7:30 p.m., both at San Francisco Art Institute, 800 Chestnut, S.F.). Other events throughout the week include plays, a "town hall meeting" on feminism in different countries, literary events, and a music and dance performance. All proceeds benefit la Casa de las Madres, a local shelter for abused women and their children. Through Sat/9. Various locations; call (415) 263-8760 or go to www.f-wordproject.org for more information and prices. (Eddy)
March 4
Don't mess with him Everybody knows ground zero for stellar singer-songwriters is Austin, Texas. But has anyone caught on to the fact that all the step-aboves have three names? Jimmie Dale Gilmour, Townes Van Zandt, Ray Wylie Hubbard, uh, Austin Lounge Lizards; you catch the drift. Anyhoo, add Jon Dee Graham to the list. A veteran of '80s post-punk nihilists the True Believers, Graham has been steadily winning over critics since releasing Escape from Monster Island (Freedom) in 1997, but it's his newest and best solo album, Hooray for the Moon (New West), that is set to place him among the Texas elite. With a borderland full of ghosts, ex-girlfriends, frustration, and loss, Hooray is as near-perfect an album as you're likely to hear this year. 9 p.m., Parkside, 1600 17th St., S.F. Free. (415) 503-0393. (O'Neill)
March 5
It's alive! Grafting diverse musical sensibilities and animating them with an electrifying passion for improvisation, bassist George Cremaschi, saxophonist Bruce Ackley, drummer Andrew Borger, vibraphonist Dave Casini, and trombonist Tom Yoder walk the earth as Frankenstein. Collectively, the quintet's credits include performances and recordings with Cecil Taylor, Marshall Allen, Eugene Chadbourne, Greg Goodman, Rova Saxophone Quartet, Tom Waits, Beth Lisick, Jim Campilongo, Eskimo, Beulah, Clubfoot Orchestra, and many others. But that only begins to hint at the range of musical ideas, energies, tones, and textures stitched and bolted together in the monstrously beautiful beyond-jazz ensemble's sound. 8 p.m., Intersection for the Arts, 446 Valencia, S.F. $12-$15. (415) 626-2787. (Derk Richardson)
March 6
Still spooky A solo artist since 1991, Daniel Ash has yet to attract the kind of attention he once drew as the spiky-haired guitarist with British goth-performance art rockers Bauhaus in the early '80s. His musical résumé includes two Bauhaus spin-off groups Tones on Tail and Love and Rockets as well as the inevitable Bauhaus reunion. Expect plenty of tunes from his gothic past to surface in his live show, along with material from his new, eponymous album. Appropriately, the first single from the new album is a cover of the old Classics IV tune "Spooky." Lennon opens. 8 p.m., Slim's, 333 11th St., S.F. $15. (415) 522-0333. (China Martens)

"Raise Your Voice for Education" FREE Gospel Concert
Rochester's Oldest Black Church Hosts Historically Black University for Concert Choir:
"Raise Your Voice for Education"
Rochester's Oldest Black Church Hosts Historically Black University for Concert Choir:
"Raise Your Voice for Education"
I've been observing and at times participating in the slew of conversations surrounding the Spencerport Board of Education considering the Urban Suburban Program. Looking back on my week I realize I've wasted so much time defending success. Isn't that odd. Why are we defending success?
FYI @rachbarnhart just shared an Instagram Video via @babyvick3 with her Twitter followers that shows kids filling the halls after "Principal tried to cancel black history month here at Wilson." I think we all need to hear more about what happened at the school AND the larger conversation around Black History Month.
I loosely followed Mayor Lovely Warren's first nine days in office, simply because those days are traditionally filled with travel, cabinet appointments and furniture moving. Usually a snooze fest. But Rochester wasn't having that, we wanted something to talk about, anything to talk about. As if we don't already have issues worth discussing in our community, we needed real deal scandal. I'm talking cover-ups, misappropriated funds, illegal hirings, speed-gate & a local reporter even managed to have her feelings hurt during a press conference. Geesh! So much in just nine days. Who knew our little city had so much to talk about?
In a recent conversation with a white associate, I mentioned that my brother just graduated from high school Magnum Cum Laud. The person with whom I was speaking expressed surprise that a high school would bestow that academic distinction. In response, I stated that it was used at my high school too and that my brother goes to a private all male Jesuit high school. I immediately corrected my statement to say he went to a private all male Jesuit high school.
Race doesn't happen to be a topic I find myself shying away from. Living in the predominantly black city of Rochester and being bussed to the almost entirely white Penfield School District ensured I'd be aware of it from a very early age. I began attending school at Penfield in the third grade, through the Urban Suburban program. It didn't take long for my peers & teachers to bring any difference between us to the forefront.
Hank Rubin:I grew up in the Rochester area, attended PS35, graduated from Brighton High School, then attended SUNY College at Geneseo and the University of Chicago and earned his PhD at Northwestern University. A lifelong educator, child advocate and bestselling author of books and articles on leadership, collaboration, and education reform, I've been a middle school teacher, high school coach, school board member, college professor, dean of education at four universities, distinguished visiting scholar, community-based and regional nonprofit executive, education advisor to Chicago Mayor Harold Washington, member of the U.S. Civil Rights Commission, and associate superintendent of education for the State of Ohio. I currently am vice president for community programs at the Rochester Area Community Foundation.

If you want more weather information besides alerts, think about an app. An excellent one is the Tornado Warning app from the Red Cross. It's free, works on Apple and Android devices and tracks a tornado as it approaches. It will give you step-by-step advice about what to do before the storm hits. A siren warning is built into the app and goes off when officials issue a tornado warning in your area. There's also a customizable notifications system to let friends and family know when the user is safe. It uses social media, text and e-mail to do this.
Another good one: My Radar. It's a free app for all the major mobile platforms. It displays animated weather radar around your location, allowing you to quickly see what weather is coming your way. For 3-99 you can include weather warnings and alerts, complete with push notifications, to warn you of severe weather in your area.
Finally, download the NBC 2 app for Apple and Android for a live look at ESP:Live Radar.

Respond to Review of Xu's Cooking
by Anna Reimstein
Review: I went there once in August 2009 and we ordered from the menu (no buffet for dinner?). Lots of mock meat dishes and plenty of pictures on the menu, to be honest though I didn't quite like the food, it was too meaty for my taste. My omnivore boyfriend loved his (vegan) mock-meat dish. I even asked the waitress if it _really_ was mock meat - apparently it's made from a mushroom base or something. I had a variety of "meats" in my dish (don't remember what exactly I had, sorry! Some kind of stew, I think) - "duck", "beef", "pork". I want to go there again for lunch some time, I do think I'd find myself something yummy at the buffet.

Charmoula is Moroccan. This sauce is used to 'zip' up a rather bland butternut squash & carrot soup
hardlikearmour is a trusted home cook.
Assuming it's already stirred in, the best thing to do would be make more charmoula w/o the cayenne. Otherwise consider adding less charmoula to the final soup. Essentially "dilution is the solution".

Comments about Areca Palm Silk Tree:
I have a dining room with 12 foot ceilings and a large vase about 4 feet tall and wanted a vertical palm tree to insert in the vase (I filled the vase with packing material so that the palm black pot sat inside the larger vase and was hidden). The palm was great for one of the corners in the room and was high enough to make a dramatic statement. You will need to play with the palm leaves to shape it the way you like. The packaging was very good and setting up was easy.

Welcome to Beth Yeshua HaMashiach
We are a congregation of Jewish and non Jewish believers trusting in Yehsua's/Jesus' blood atonement for all sin.
We believe that Jewish and non Jewish believers become ONE through Messiah. Gal. 3:27-29
We are not ashamed of the gospel of Messiah for it is the power of G-d unto salvation; to the Jew first and also the Greek. Romans 1:16
We are a strongly evangelical body obeying Yeshua's command to take the gospel to all the nations. Matt. 28:19
Our Shabbat worship service is designed to honor the Most High G-d through our Liturgical Torah service, musical praise and worship, and sharing messages from G-d's Holy Word.
Praise the LORD, We Won!
Praise G-d, we won the law suit! Texas Civil Rights project represented our opposition. Although they claim to have never lost a law suit, Adonai allowed us to be very victorious. All three apellate judges ruled strongly and unanimously in our favor!
We can now move forward with the plans for our new Synagogue, which have been on hold awaiting this outcome. Please consider prayerfully and financially supporting the building project so we can better serve G-d in this community.

text: Nine out of 10 respondents to a MedPage Today poll say medical TV shows have an impact on the doctor-patient relationship. But what that impact is depends on the particular show, according to more than half (53%) of the 1,555 respondents. Those who put the television offerings definitively in one bucket or the other split almost equally on whether such shows help (20%) or harm (18%) the doctor-patient relationship, the survey found.

MARYVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT)-- A Blount County walking horse trainer was indicted on animal cruelty charges Monday.
Larry Wheelon, 68, faced similar charges in connection to a soring investigation earlier this year. But those charges were dismissed after a mix up in court in November.
"I hate that my client has to go through this again," said Wheelon's Attorney Robert White. "These horses were well cared for, well treated and my client has devoted his entire adult life to training horses and would never abuse a horse."
But that's not what authorities reportedly found during a search warrant at his Blount County farm in April.
According to authorities, Wheelon and two other of his employees applied irritating chemicals to the horses hooves to encourage a high step that show judges look for.
White denied those claims telling Local 8 News it's all part of an agenda.
"They are not proponents of the Walking Horse Industry. I believe it's their goal to eliminate it. So, unfortunately, they've chosen Mr. Wheelon to get closer to that goal," White said.
But Kellie Bachman with the Blount County SPCA says that's not at all the case.
"I have no problem with Tennessee walking horses in Tennessee Walking Horse Shows, but there's no reason for these animals to be tortured, chemically, mechanically, or however," she said.

Commission outlines blueprint for forward-looking Common Agricultural Policy after 2013
The European Commission has today published a Communication on "the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) towards 2020 – Meeting the food, natural resources and territorial challenges of the future". The reform aims at making the European agriculture sector more dynamic, competitive, and effective in responding to the Europe 2020 vision of stimulating sustainable growth, smart growth and inclusive growth. The paper outlines three options for further reform. Following discussion of these ideas, the Commission will present formal legislative proposals in mid-2011.

But look at the usual ATI 5450 1GB low profile compatible card you find for 30 bucks at newegg. It's a sleeper of a card that has HDMI and enough oomph without need to change the power supply in all the boxes I've seen.
I need a new graphics card with an HDMI port. have a refurbished lenovo with:
Pentium E2140 1.6 GHz processor
Lenovo MB - LPCIO;
chipset: Intel 946PL/GZ
southboard: 82801 GB
Bios: 2QKT22AUS
graphics: Intel 946GZ
DDR2 memory - 2gb
None of this really means anything to me! But I'm reasonably confident I can install a new card . . . took computer data from CPU-Z software - recommended somewhere here
I'm only going to watch internet video (TV networks and Netflix) with this computer - connected to a 1080 hd samsung TV. that's it! Don't need anything special; but have no idea how to find a graphics card that's compatible with MB
thanks in advance
Let me know if I forgot some spec you need
Happy Holidays!

What the heck is Advice Network anyway?
Some of the things we in life do are easy. If you need to ship a package, you've got a few choices, but it doesn't take that long to navigate the differences and pick an option. You probably don't need advice.
There are other things in life that are much more complicated. Some things will be tough every time, like advertising your business in the most cost effective way, and some things are challenging just because you don't do them as much. Buying a house for example, or planning a wedding. How are you supposed to do well something you only do one, or once every few decades?
"What do you mean, "complicated?"
Considering the house buyers again; They need to pick a real estate agent, to learn about the quirks of house hunting in their area, inspections, offers, contracts, mortgages.
Sure, they ask dad for advice, but he hasn't bought a house in 40 years. There are lots of new ways to do mortgages that he never heard of. Friends may know more, but do they know enough?
"I see the problem, what's the solution?"
That is what Advice Network is for. Experts and professionals and vendors and motivated individuals can share their advice, their experiences, suggestions and expertise. We get to read what they have said, comment, and we can vote too, adding our intelligence to the process. If something helps you, it will probably help your neighbor, and if you think an article is off base, we want to know that too.
Is that all there is to it?
Now we get into the real synergy. If you are planning a wedding, or buying a house, or starting a business, you need good advice. But you also need professionals. Vendors who can provide the services you need to fulfill your task.
Anyone can write a good article of advice, but who know these areas best? Who keeps up with the changes, sees the common problems, and thinks about these things every day? It's the professionals again.
So we need their advice to make the best decisions, but what do they need? They need you! They need your business.
And there is the beauty of Advice Network. If you need the advice, you probably need the professionals, and if you provide the advice, you might just want the clients.

3 Jaguar XF
Satisfaction rating 82.3%
Overall 17th
Jaguar XF
Jaguar XF review
The Jaguar XF made a stunning debut in last year's satisfaction survey, topping the class and coming second overall. This year mechanical faults, problems outside the cabin and high running costs dragged down the XF a little.
Owners still loved the looks and performance, though.
4 Audi A6, RS6, S6, Allroad
Satisfaction rating 81.7%
Overall 26th=
Audi A6 review
The solid quality of the A6's exterior has really helped it retain a good score in this year's survey, although some owners have fallen out of love with their cars a little and don't like the way it rides over bumpy surfaces.
5 Volvo V70
Satisfaction rating 79.8%
Overall 55th=
Volvo V70 review
First, the good news. The V70's overall score is above the industry average (just) and it gets a five-star rating for a well-built interior that's mainly free of faults. It also gets the thumbs up for suffering few exterior problems. In every other measure the car is two-star, though.
Owners reported that the car suffered quite a high number of mechanical problems, with steering issues and uneven tyre wear generating most complaints. Owners loved the amount of space, but they marked the V70 down for running costs and what they considered to be poor service from dealerships.
Why pampering is key
We've already found out why city cars owner are the least satisfied, so now it's time to find out why executive car drivers are the most satisfied.
A leather-lined interior certainly helps to lift the spirits, but it seems that helpful lighting made the biggest difference in the cabin. Quiet heating and air-conditioning also proved critical to satisfaction.
Buyers of executive cars also liked their vehicles' performance – particularly the ease with which they were able to overtake slower traffic on country roads.
Also important were the quality of materials covering the seats and a good amount of storage space – execs like to take their golf clubs everywhere they go.

WASHINGTON -- While leading the hunt for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq in the summer of 2003, David Kay received a phone call from ``Scooter'' Libby, Dick Cheney's chief of staff, who wanted a particular place searched: ``The vice president wants to know if you've looked at this area. We have indications -- and here are the geocoordinates -- that something's buried there.'' Kay and his experts located the area on the map. It was in the middle of Lebanon.
This story from Bob Woodward's ``State of Denial'' would be hilarious were it not about war. The vignette is dismaying because it seems symptomatic of a blinkering monomania that may have prevented obsessed persons from facing facts.
Some will regard ``State of Denial'' as Katrina between hard covers, a snapshot of dysfunctional government. But it is largely just a glimpse of (BEG ITAL)government, (END ITAL) disheartening as that fact may be to those who regard government as a glistening scalpel for administering social transformation.
Once, when President William Howard Taft was listening to an aide talk about ``the machinery of government,'' Taft murmured, ``The young man really thinks it's a machine.'' Actually, government is people, and not a random slice of the population. Those at government's pinnacle generally are strong-willed, ambitious, competitive, opinionated and have agendas about which they care deeply. (BEG ITAL)That is why they are there.(END ITAL) And why almost any administration, carefully scrutinized, looks much like a teaspoon of pond water viewed under a microscope -- a teeming, disorderly maelstrom of sometimes rival life forms. That is especially true of an administration staffed with such canny Washington survivors as Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and Colin Powell. A government of rookies or shrinking violets would be more harmonious. So, how much of a virtue is harmony?
``State of Denial'' will take a toll on government collegiality and the candor of its deliberations. It is based on astonishing indiscretions -- current and past officials making private memos and conversations public for motives that cannot be pure.
The book is hardly a revelation about supposed hidden chaos in Washington that produced the obvious chaos in Iraq. It does demonstrate that President Bush and others were shockingly slow to recognize Iraq's complexities and downward spiral. But we already knew that.

Gunshots rang out at a pre-Video Music Awards party hosted by Chris Brown and singer Pia Mia in West Hollywood in the early morning hours on Sunday.
Shortly after 1:30 a.m. Sunday morning, a shooting occurred at 1OAK nightclub in the 9000 block of Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood where two men and a woman were wounded, the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department said in a statement provided to the Daily News.
The suspect remains unknown, but the victims include a 49-year-old male, widely reported as music producer Marion (Suge) Knight, as well as two unnamed victims, a 32-year-old male and a 19-year-old female. All the victims were transported to local hospitals and are expected to recover.

Neal talks commitment status
Chauncey Rivers decided to flip his commitment to Georgia on a visit to Athens.South Carolina lost a verbal commitment in the 2015 recruiting class this past weekend when
The first commitment for South Carolina in the 2015 recruiting class was Stone Mountain (Ga.) Stephenson receiver Dexter Neal, a teammate of Rivers.
What was Neal's reaction to his teammate flipping to Georgia?
"It doesn't have an impact on me," Neal said. "I think it's best for him to go where he fits in. I can't do much about it."
Neal hasn't been 100-percent committed to South Carolina since football season began last year. He still isn't completely solid and it sounds like his recruitment may last longer than some expected.
"It's about 75-80 percent," Neal said about his commitment to the Gamecocks. "I'm kind of opening it back up because I want to take other visits and still talk with other coaches."
Georgia, Tennessee, Clemson, Vanderbilt, and Florida were the schools mentioned by Neal when asked who he was still considering.
A visit to Georgia soon is in the works.
"They haven't offered yet but I think they are close," Neal said about Georgia. "The coach wants me to set up a day where I can go chill with the coaching staff. I do think they are close to offering. I think when I go up there they will offer me."
Another school Neal plans on visiting soon is Tennessee. He said that he will either visit Tennessee this coming weekend or the next weekend.
"I went up there for a visit and I liked the community and all of the coaches," Neal said about the Vols. "I like the coaches and the players. The coaches are real laid back. There was just something about Tennessee that made me want to put them in my top five."
The 6-foot-2, 197-pounder is also considering visiting Florida State next month.
Neal hasn't visited South Carolina this spring but he said that will change soon. He said it is possible that he could visit South Carolina this weekend. He will not be able to attend South Carolina March 29 for their junior day.
South Carolina defensive coordinator Lorenzo Ward is recruiting Neal for the Gamecocks.
"I talked with Coach Ward last Tuesday," Neal said. "We were just checking up on each other. He was making sure that I was still working out like I'm supposed to be doing and we also talked about some baseball stuff. It was just a simple conversation. We talked about the next time I will be up at South Carolina."
The four-star receiver has made Ward aware of him visiting other schools.
"He's cool with it," Neal said. "He told me that as long as he knows I'm committed right now, then he knows he can trust me to take other visits."
Neal doesn't plan on shutting down his recruitment anytime soon. He said that he plans on taking official visits and going from there.
Who is the biggest competition to South Carolina?
"I would say its South Carolina, Georgia, and Tennessee," Neal said. "They are all in a race right now and it is close between all three."

Dancing with Hitler on the edge of the abyss
Seventy years ago, the world was falling into an abyss that would engulf between 50m and 70m lives. World War II dwarfed all previous wars, and raised questions not yet satisfactorily answered. What was the rationale behind the German-Soviet Treaty of Nonaggression? What did those who signed the pact hope for? We talked to American military historian and writer Albert Axell about these unresolved issues.
There is an abiding claim that if the Soviet-German nonagression agreement (the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact) had not been signed in August 1939, the Second World War might never have happened and history could have taken quite a different course. Do you believe this to be true?
No, it is not. Hitler's timetable called for a war with Poland on September 1. Some of the facts are still little known or blurred, or were submerged during the Cold War. However, a year earlier, the Munich Pact, in which Britain and France in effect gave Czechoslovakia to Hitler on a silver platter, was a severe blow to Moscow. Hitler's war machine was strengthened by the takeover of the splendid Czech munitions industry.
The following year the talks in Moscow on an Anglo-French-Soviet Mutual Defence Treaty broke down. The British and French were not serious about signing it. In fact, while these talks were in progress, the British government was secretly negotiating a deal with Hitler directed against Russia. Their secret instructions tell the story.
Two examples: "…the delegation should use great discretion as to how far they disclose Anglo-French intentions to the Russians… the delegation should therefore go very slow with the conversations." Also: "Disclosure to the Russians of the details of any technical equipment in the first stage is impossible…"
At the time of the Munich talks, Vladimir Potemkin, deputy head of the Soviet Foreign Ministry, warned French Ambassador Robert Coulondre that the decisions at Munich would lead to the "partition" of Poland. Coulondre immediately understood what was meant.
Hitler was determined to invade Poland and Russia would not stand idly by. The Second World War was around the corner. Stalin and his coterie agreed to the pact with Hitler because they were certain Hitler would invade Poland with or without a treaty with Moscow.
Without such a treaty, Russia would gain nothing and might well be in terrible danger: The Kremlin expected Hitler to turn against Russia sooner or later. Meanwhile, as Molotov met with Ribbentrop, major hostilities between Russia and Japan were taking place in Mongolia. Hitler regarded Japan as a close ally.
Did Stalin have an alternative to signing the pact with Hitler, considering that the Soviet Union was not prepared for war against Germany, and that the Western powers were unwilling to unite with Russia?
Yes. Stalin wanted to sign a treaty of mutual help with Britain and France and invited Britain's Foreign Secretary, Lord Halifax, to come to Moscow to lead or help in the talks. Nearly every expert says that if Halifax had gone to Moscow, the negotiations would probably have succeeded. But he did not go.
At that time, Nazi Germany was much more powerful militarily than Russia. Russia needed at least two or three more years to catch up militarily and industrially. Stalin chose the path that was, it turned out, best for Russia, best for Britain, best for the United States and for the world.
How did Russia – and the world – gain? According to secret protocols added to the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, Poland would be divided between the two powers. This meant that in a future clash between Russia and Germany, the hostilities would be started 200 to 300 kilometres away from the Soviet border. Russia, in other words, had a buffer that in due course delayed the invasion of Soviet territory by Hitler's armies.
Few historians mention that Hitler met Stalin's first condition: signing an economic pact. Under this, Berlin granted Russia a two-year credit of 180m Reichsmarks for the purchase of German goods. The permission was obtained for Russian pilots and aircraft designers to visit no less than 200 German aircraft and military factories the year before Hitler invaded the USSR.
The Russian mission to Berlin bought many late-model German planes and flew them to Moscow. Information obtained, on this and other occasions, proved invaluable. Hitler was said to have been furious about the sale of planes. The German general who approved the Russian requests committed suicide. By building up its military muscle and overcoming the Wehrmacht, the Soviets helped the US and Britain in their great victories over Hitler's armies in Western Europe.
Why did Britain and France show a lack of enthusiasm about signing a military agreement with Moscow in the summer of 1939, before the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact? How could both London and Paris appear to have been so short-sighted?
There are three main reasons. First: an underlying purpose entertained by British leader Neville Chamberlain was to leave Hitler a free hand for expansion eastward into Russia. Nothing could have been more welcome to many British and French statesmen than to see Hitler's Germany in a death struggle with Russia's Bolsheviks. And if Japan joined in and all three fought to a standstill, no tears would be shed in London or Paris.
Second: after World War I, giant British and French companies were deeply involved in rehabilitating Germany's war potential, apart from financial and economic aid.
Third: in 1933, the Imperial Policy Group was formed, sponsored by a number of parliamentarians of the extreme Right. Soviet Communism was more repugnant to many conservatives than the ideology of Nazism. Opposition to a collective security pact for Europe and detestation of Russia were two of the things that united this group of diehards.
But the USSR was not the first state to sign an agreement with Hitler's Germany. Latvia and Estonia were the first. It is then even more surprising that, today, the Baltic states are such fierce accusers of the Soviet Union for its pact with Germany.
Everyone can appreciate the feelings that ordinary people in Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania had during World War Two. No nation likes to be conquered by another. Unfortunately, the three states are located in strategic positions on the Baltic coast, and therefore would automatically be involved in any armed conflict between Russia and Germany. There were both anti-fascists and anti-Communists in the Baltic states who bristled whether under the red flag or the swastika.
Stalin's ambassador in London, Maisky, reported that Churchill told him the following shortly before Hitler invaded Poland: "For the most part, Britain has no reasons to object to Soviet actions in the Baltic area."
Churchill told Maisky that he appreciated Russia's bid to become master on the eastern coast of the Baltic Sea, and was glad that Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia were incorporated into the USSR, rather than into the German Reich. Churchill, according to Maisky, said this was "historically normal".
Seventy years on, and the Soviet Union doesn't exist any more; the world has moved on. Why does mention of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact still provoke bitter debate in the new millennium? Why is it still such a hot topic?
Perhaps one reason is a psychological need to hide Western faults, especially during the fateful 1930s, and to exaggerate Russia's. It is easy to point a finger at Russia and not to fault the blindness of the British and French for the betrayal of Czechoslovakia at the Munich conference in September 1938.
British historian AJP Taylor is categorical: when Hitler sent a message to Stalin on August 20, 1939, agreeing to all Russian demands, his message "was a milestone in world history".
Taylor adds: "It marked the moment when Soviet Russia returned to Europe as a great power. No European statesman had ever addressed Stalin directly before… Now Hitler recognised him as the ruler of a great state."
Earlier, British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain twice flew to Berlin to discuss vital questions with Hitler, but he refused to meet Stalin. Sir Winston Churchill was a statesman of a different order.
Sadly, the Cold War prevented the West from getting the full picture of the heavy sacrifices made by the Russian people in the common struggle against the Axis powers. General Eisenhower's son, John SD Eisenhower, a prominent military historian, speaking several years after the collapse of the Soviet Union, made a remark that may surprise millions of Americans and Europeans to this day.
A Second World War veteran, Eisenhower said: "The Anglo-American invasion of north-west France, in June 1944, was not only assisted, it was even made possible, by the heavy sacrifices borne by Russia's soldiers…"
Today, it should be an obligation for the US and other Western (and Asian) democracies to join hands with Russia in eliminating the most pressing dangers to our present civilisation. To paraphrase Abraham Lincoln, united we can succeed, divided we can fail.
RN Dossier - Albert Axell
American military historian Albert Axell is author of four books on WWII, three of them about the German-Soviet front. He has just completed a book on President Eisenhower's friendship with Russia's "Marshal of Victory", Georgi Zhukov.
Poll - Russians cannot see any parallels between Nazism and Stalinism
According to a survey by VTsIOM, the Russian Public Opinion Research Centre, 53pc of those polled were against a parliamentary assembly of the OSCE resolution in support of the initiative of the European parliament to declare August 23, the anniversary of the signing of the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, a day of remembrance for victims of Stalinism and Nazism. Only 11pc of respondents spoke in favour of the document.
Most respondents felt the resolution had been adopted "to undermine Russia's authority in the world and diminish its contribution to the victory over fascism (59pc)". However, many analysts believe Russians have negative attitudes to the crimes of the Stalin regime. "Russians do not want to be deprived of the most considerable cause for pride over the previous hundreds of years – the victory in WWII," said Vladimir Petukhov, head of dynamics of mass consciousness at the Institute of Sociology.
Why Medvedev set up a commission against falsifying history
Alexander Chubaryan, director, General History Institute - Russians, and particularly World War II veterans, often protest against the modern tendency to whitewash those who collaborated with Nazis. The Nuremberg trials condemned collaboration as a crime against the state, and those criminals were hanged when the war ended. All Nazi symbols were subsequently prohibited in Germany. So, today, when people in Romania or Latvia march in the streets sporting swastikas on their sleeves, they flout international law, and our commission has a right to pass its judgment on such outrageous behaviour. It discredits our veterans.
Roy Medevdev, historian - This commision is simply a response to similar initiatives already in place in different parts of the world. I see it as a completely normal phenomenon. National history commissions have existed in France and Germany (at least, after the War), the United States, China and Japan for some time.
