Parasailing is an easy, exhilarating way to earn your wings: just strap on a harness attached to a parachute, and a powerboat pulls you up and over the ocean from a launching dock or a boat's platform. Parasailing is limited to West Maui, and "thrill craft"—including parasails—are prohibited in Maui waters during humpback whale-calving season, December 15 to May 15.
UFO Parasail. This cheekily named company offers single, tandem, and triple rides at 600 feet ($70), 800 feet ($80), or 1,200 feet ($85). Rides last from 7 to 14 minutes, depending on headcount. It's more fun to take the "dip" (when the boat slows down to let the parachute descend slowly in the water). You'll get a little wet, though you'll probably catch more water while on the boat watching the others take flight. Observers are welcome aboard for $35. 12 Ulupono St., Lahaina, HI, 96761. PHONE: 808/661-7836. www.ufoparasail.net.
West Maui Parasail. Soar at 800 feet above the ocean for a bird's-eye view of Lahaina, or be daring at 1,200 feet for smoother rides and even better views. The captain will be glad to let you experience a "toe dip" or "freefall" if you request it. Hour-long trips departing from Lahaina Harbor and Kaanapali Beach include 8- to 10-minute flights and run from $70 for the 800-foot ride to $80 for the 1,200-foot ride. Observers pay $35 each. 15 Lahaina Hbr., Lahaina, HI. PHONE: 808/661-4060. www.westmauiparasail.com.

Cool! I was wondering how long it would be before we could stop worrying about running cables through the house. Sounds buggy right now but I'm sure it'll be the wave of the future.
This offers potential for apartment renters who may not have coxial cable TV outlets in their bedrooms and do not want to go through trying to get landlord/property managerment firm approvals for a cable to be strung through rafters, fished down through the wall and a new TV signal outlet installed.
Of course there is the potential for interference with the renter's own wireless Internet network along with those of fellow tenants. However, I have ATT DSL as apparently do many of my fellow tenants based on the numbers of 2Wire networks I see on my laptop's network set up. So far with Internet, no interference issues.
At my apartment complex not all tenants can have Dish Network or Direct TV installed as dishes must be ground anchored -- no wall or rooftop mounts allowed -- and a clear exposure to the south is requured. Thus, it's good that ATT offers competition to Time Warner Cable.
They already make TVs that are wi-fi enabled. What will it take to get rid of the box all together?

In every single industry, we compete to be first. To come up with a cure, to invent a new product, to discover a new Tiger mistress. We want to be the first to tell you about the great new movie we just saw, the awesome new band we just heard, the funny person we just found on Twitter. People even get a thrill out of posting "first" on the message board after an article's posted. That one always befuddles me.
It's as if you are announcing to the world: "Hey, I have no life. I was sitting online, clicking refresh over and over and then as soon as this story showed up, I rushed to the message board to post first. I now expect much cheering and adulation toward my made-up screen name that identifies me not at all. Revere me."
I don't get it but it just underscores the need we have to be first. Fantasy is driven by this. We love to say, "I was the first guy who saw Jamaal Charles coming," and "I knew all Mike Sims-Walker needed was a chance. And someone to make sure he made curfew." "Back when Cedric Benson was arrested in Austin and released by the Bears, I grabbed him in my keeper league because I knew he'd get another chance a year later and make the most of it."
There's always a guy in your league that takes the rookies or hot sleepers way too early. He wants to be the first guy. It gets ridiculous.
I'm a big believer in never making a decision until I have to. Fantasy value changes all the time. I write this article on Wednesday night and Thursday morning and stuff changes the minute I hit submit. Like last week, I had Mike Sims-Walker in my "love" list. Then he was downgraded on the injury report as "doubtful." Arghh. Obviously, his value changes with that news and sure enough, he did not play well on Sunday.
So I like to take my time when I can. Keeper decisions should be made an hour before they are due. Not before.
That said, I wanted to have something for everyone in this column, even for those who were eliminated from the fantasy playoffs in their custom leagues last week (thanks for nothing, Kurt Warner and Randy Moss). I remember last year, I saw a Fantasy Football mock draft in February. The week after the Super Bowl. Now that's early.
Until now. Because I'm about to be first. That's right. Here, now, before Week 15 has even played, here's my Way-Too-Early-To-Be-Useful-To-Anyone Top 25 for 2010 in Fantasy Football.
1. Chris Johnson, RB, Titans
2. Adrian Peterson, RB, Vikings
3. Maurice Jones-Drew, RB, Jaguars
4. Ray Rice, RB, Ravens
5. Drew Brees, QB, Saints
6. Michael Turner, RB, Falcons
7. Aaron Rodgers, QB, Packers
8. DeAngelo Williams, RB, Panthers
9. Steven Jackson, RB, Rams
10. Andre Johnson, WR, Texans
11. Larry Fitzgerald, WR, Cardinals
12. Rashard Mendenhall, RB, Steelers
13. Cedric Benson, RB, Bengals
14. Frank Gore, RB, 49ers
15. Brandon Marshall, WR, Broncos
16. Randy Moss, WR, Patriots
17. Peyton Manning, QB, Colts
18. Tom Brady, QB, Patriots
19. Ryan Grant, RB, Packers
20. Jamaal Charles, RB, Chiefs
21. Thomas Jones, RB, Jets
22. Miles Austin , WR, Cowboys
23. Knowshon Moreno, RB, Broncos
24. Vincent Jackson, WR, Chargers
25. Justin Forsett. RB, Seahawks. You heard me.
There you go. Debate away as we head to this week's Love/Hate. As always, if you are curious as to where I think a certain player compares to another, be sure to check out our rankings, updated Friday afternoon. And the players I feel exceed or fall below their general expectations for this week are ...
Week 15 Players I Love
Pierre Garcon, WR, Colts: Jaguars give up the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers and I have Garcon ahead of Reggie Wayne in my rankings. He's healthier, he will see fewer double-teams, he's been the better fantasy wide receiver the past six weeks, he has a French first name, he's nice to children and pets, there are only two games all year where Jacksonville has not given up at least one touchdown to an opposing wide receiver, even with his poor game last week, Garcon still leads the Colts in targets, Rashean Mathis probably isn't going to play and I play softball with a guy who played college football with Garcon and says he's a really nice guy. At least some of these reasons are relevant.
Robert Meachem, WR, Saints: Even without scoring last week, Meachem still has seven touchdowns in his past six games. Cowboys are 21st against the pass and Drew Brees looks for Meachem often; he's second on the Saints in targets over the past six weeks.
Pierre Thomas and Reggie Bush, RB, Saints: Pierre has four scores in his past three home games, Bush will be a good outlet for Brees when the Cowboys try to blitz, and I don't think Mike Bell plays. If he does, I'm not as excited about Bush.
Laurence Maroney, RB, Patriots: A podcast listener came up with the term "Fantasy Zombie." As in ... a guy left for dead who has somehow risen from the grave to actually have real, legit fantasy value. And backing up Cedric Benson in the backfield for the Fightin' Fantasy Zombies is Laurence Maroney. With Brady banged up, I expect the Patriots to rely on the run even more, especially considering how bad the Bills' rush defense is. In fact, I even like Sammy Morris to get four or five points in this game, useful if you are in a deep league.
Terrell Owens, WR, Bills: Speaking of Zombies, Owens makes my flesh crawl. But the Patriots have given up 10 touchdowns to opposing wide receivers in the past five games and Owens has scores in three of his past four games (the one exception being the game he was out on Revis Island).
Beanie Wells, RB, Cardinals: Wells has gotten at least 13 touches in five of his past six games. Against the Lions, 13 touches might be enough.
Early Doucet, WR, Cardinals: Especially if Larry Fitzgerald doesn't play for some reason, this is a gut call more than anything. But he's been involved more recently and I could see him getting four or five points for those in super-deep leagues.
Calvin Johnson, WR, Lions: Scores in three of his past four, in each of his past two home games and in five of his past six games in December.
Chris Jennings, RB, Browns: I can't believe I am recommending a Browns running back. Again. Hey Lucy, hold the football. I want to try and kick it. Good grief.
Jamaal Charles, RB, Chiefs: First! I was, too.
Dwayne Bowe, WR, Chiefs: Welcome back. We missed you. OK, "we" does not include Chris Chambers. He's sulking a bit. But the rest of us? Very excited.
Arian Foster, RB, Texans: Like the upside, the matchup against the Rams and that Gary Kubiak has said they are going to give him a long look. Just realize you are playing with fire. This coach pulled Steve Slaton after one play (albeit a fumble) and let Ryan Moats play all game in Week 8, a juicy, tender matchup against the Bills.
Houston Texans D/ST: This is what I wrote in my pickups column earlier this week ... "A week after scoring 15 fantasy points against Seattle, Houston, a team that is still in the hunt and desperately needs a win, visits St. Louis. That would be for a matchup with a Rams' team featuring a banged-up Steven Jackson and a third-string quarterback. It's a squad that just gave up 21 points to the Titans' defense. In fact, no team gives up more fantasy points to opposing defenses than the Rams. The defense facing them has scored at least nine fantasy points in five straight weeks."
Braylon Edwards and Jerricho Cotchery, WR, Jets: Falcons have given up at least 17 fantasy points to opposing wide receivers each of the past five weeks. I have decided I like that fact more than I hate Kellen Clemens. Wow. This is one ugly week.
Vernon Davis, TE, 49ers: A score in four straight games, Eagles give up the most points to opposing tight ends and clearly, Davis is the starting tight end on our fantasy zombie team.
Knowshon Moreno, RB, Broncos: Without Correll Buckhalter in the lineup, Moreno will touch the ball plenty enough against the Raiders to have perhaps his best week yet.
Denver Broncos D/ST: Happiness is being at home against Charlie Frye.
Heath Miller, TE, Steelers: More of a gut call than anything here, but the Packers do give up the 11th-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends. Hines Ward is still a bit banged up and I expect Charles Woodson to be all up in Santonio Holmes' business.
Justin Forsett, RB, Seahawks: I also like Julius Jones in this matchup against the Bucs, but I'm putting Forsett here because he is a part of the pass game, Seattle wants (needs) to get him even more involved to see what they have. Obviously, from my ranking of Forsett above, I believe he will be the starting running back next year and I am a huge fan of his skills. And by the way, he has five scores in his past five games. Regardless, the Bucs give up the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing running backs and have allowed five scores to them in their past four road games. This is a bad team on a long trip and both Seahawks running backs will have nice games.
Deion Branch, WR, Seahawks: Nate Burleson won't play and it's not like the Bucs' pass defense is all that. Branch actually showed signs of life on Sunday with five receptions on seven targets. The targets were second-most on the team. I ranked him 42nd, incidentally, and will move him up on Friday following the official news that Burleson is out.
Seattle Seahawks D/ST: What? Really? They are bottom 10 in total points allowed. Yes, but they are at home to Tampa Bay. Bucs allow the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing defenses. The defense facing them has scored at least 15 points in three of the past four. They average more than 12 points a game at home and they are available in more than 80 percent of leagues. I'm not saying it'll be pretty but if you're stuck, it will do in a pinch. It's kind of like the Perkins waitress in the Tiger story. You're surprised to see her there but some days, there's just not a lot else around. If Laurence Maroney is a fantasy zombie, the Seahawks' defense is a fantasy Perkins waitress.
Jason Campbell, QB, Redskins: Has outscored Tom Brady each of the past three weeks. Just saying. The Giants, by the way, have given up at least 17 fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in five of their past six.
Quinton Ganther, RB, Redskins: Giants have given up 17 rushing touchdowns this year, third most in the NFL.
Fred Davis, TE, Redskins: I admit to being a Redskins homer but I like teams at home on "Monday Night Football." National audience under the lights and all that. Plus, Davis has four scores in his past three games and New York gives up the second most fantasy points to opposing tight ends.
Week 15 Players I Hate:
Reggie Wayne, WR, Colts: It will not surprise me in the least to wake up Friday morning to see that Wayne has gone off (just like he did in Week 1 against the Jags). He certainly has the skill and Jacksonville is terrible against the pass. But as I wrote to Tristan Cockcroft for his "Called Out!" column, Wayne has single-digit fantasy points in five of his past six games and last week, Pierre Garcon, Dallas Clark and Joseph Addai ALL had more targets than him. He's banged up and there's no motivation to play Wayne the whole game. I have him outside my top 20 and feel he's a flex play at best.
Mike Sims-Walker, WR, Jaguars: Same thing here as with Wayne. Could he explode? Sure. But something's not right and frankly, I just don't trust him. Single-digit fantasy points in three straight games, including a total of 18 yards receiving in his past two home games.
Randy Moss, WR, Patriots: He was in this list last week and I'm by far the lowest on him (I have him 19) this week. My reasoning is this: He had less than 70 yards for four straight weeks, the Bills are fifth best against the pass, allow the second fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers and Brady ain't right. I bet they do everything in their power to get Moss a score after all the media attention this past week, but his yardage total won't be high and counting on TDs is like chasing wins in baseball.
Maurice Morris, RB, Detroit: There's Perkins waitresses and then there's "Come on, man, what are you doing? Seriously. Go home."
Matt Cassel, QB, Chiefs: Don't get cute because you see the Browns on the schedule and Dwayne Bowe is back. He has zero fantasy points for two straight weeks and while I think Bowe has a good game, it won't be enough to lift Cassel. The Browns have held opposing quarterbacks to 10 points or fewer in four of their past six.
Any Falcons Running Back: I don't know if Michael Turner is playing as of this writing, but it's a muddled mess that I don't trust regardless of who is or is not playing.
Roddy White, WR, Falcons: Insert "stud facing Darrelle Revis" here.
Alex Smith and Michael Crabtree, 49ers: Short week, on the road, Eagles very tough. No thanks.
LeSean McCoy, RB, Eagles: Don't trust any Philly running back, especially him.
Matt Forte, RB, Bears: As someone who owns Forte in a league, I'd like to request Forte also post a message to his Web site apologizing for his transgressions.
Jay Cutler, QB, Bears: New mystery book racing up the best seller charts: The Cutler Did It!
Carson Palmer, QB, Bengals: Single-digit fantasy points in four of his past five games, the Chargers are top 10 in the NFL in both passing yards allowed per game and fewest fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks. In fact, they've been even better at home; opposing quarterbacks are averaging just 11 fantasy points a game at San Diego this year. Plus, the Bengals are running a lot more than passing these days.
Rashard Mendenhall, RB, Steelers: Chances are, if you have him, you're in a deep hole in the playoffs this week, thanks to last week's brutal performance against Cleveland. But if you managed to survive, I got sour news for you, Jack. Packers have not allowed a 100-yard rusher since Week 3. They've given up just four rushing touchdowns all season, they give up the second fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs and I expect Green Bay to score a lot of points against a reeling Steelers defense, meaning Pittsburgh will be playing from behind.
Jonathan Stewart, RB, Panthers: Four points or less in his past three games with DeAngelo Williams ... maybe he gets a score, but I don't trust him against the Vikings.
Kevin Boss, TE, Giants: Redskins allow the fifth-fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends.
That's all I got. Good luck this week and as always, tune into Fantasy Football Now, on both ESPN.com and ESPN2 at 11:30 a.m. ET this Sunday for last-minute news, analysis and advice.

Hi Po$$e members,
I hope the new year is off to a great start and that 2015 ends up being your best ever!
You'll notice that I've done a pretty major overhaul of the site. It was long overdue and I think you'll find it easier to navigate. One of my New Year resolutions was to share a lot more information through the site on a regular basis and, since January is almost over, it seemed like a good time to get started.
I want to thank all of you for your support in making the launch of Either Ore, the first book in my new series, The Cautionary Tales of Either Ore, so successful. Sales and early reviews have been terrific and I'm so glad that everyone seems to be enjoying the book.
That is, everyone except one individual who gave me a one-star review because I use that word…(rhymes with duck) and they couldn't get past the first couple of pages. Too bad, because they missed out on what I think is a really strong and very funny book. Nobody likes to get the dreaded one-stars; they're rare, but they happen. And, invariably, it's because the book just happened to land with someone who isn't a fan of the genre I write in.
But onward we go…as you all know all too well, I write comic crime that is for adults and make no bones about it. And people, like Either and Casper who steal diamonds for a living, tend to use words that rhyme with duck…and flit.
I'm currently working on the next book in the Damaged Po$$e series, something a lot of you have been asking about. I'm hoping for a summer launch and it's more of a thriller than previous books in the series. In short, it's about what happens when technology meets End of Days prophecies head on. All the usual suspects are back and Merlin is in a particularly foul mood. And that fact doesn't do much for the other Po$$e members' moods since they end up having to clean up a pretty big mess.
Stay tuned. I think it's going to be a good one.
Be well, my friends.

The Fed announced another round of "quantitative easing" in the form of $40 billion of mortgage purchases per month until the labor market "improves substantially." The stated goal is to "increase policy accommodation" by driving down the cost of borrowing not only in the mortgage sector, but in other areas as relative valuations adjust.
A conveniently leaked statement from the ECB yesterday purports they will begin an "unlimited, sterilized" buying program for eurozone debt with maturities up to three years. The markets cheered as they have every "kick-the-can" announcement thus far, but there's more to the story.

Sounds True
Attunement to Fundamental Consciousness
At the heart of this work is what Dr. Blackstone calls fundamental consciousness a primary dimension of being that is the basis of both our individual sense of self and the transcendence of our separateness. This is not something we can grasp conceptually; we need to touch it directly. As fundamental consciousness, we pervade both the subject and the object of experience, she explains. We move from imagination to actuality to truly see, truly touch, truly hear. For the past 25 years in her psychotherapy practice, Dr. Blackstone has developed meditative practices for attuning to fundamental consciousness in oneself and in others. On The Realization Process, she guides you through beginner and advanced versions of these practices, including the core breath technique for accessing the body's central energetic pathway; seeing, hearing, and moving with fundamental consciousness; attuning to the three qualities of fundamental consciousness (awareness, emotion, and physical sensation); and relational exercises for healing and growth in intimate partnerships.

Aikido Bio
Aikido against two attackers. Filmed in Kosice, Slovakia, 2012.
My Aikido Life So Far
I started to practice aikido in 1972, when I was 18 years old. How that happened, you can read on the page called Aikido is true. In those days there were not many dojos in Sweden - I'm not sure, but probably not much more than a dozen. Luckily, several of them were in the Stockholm area, where I lived.
On Fridays, our dojo was visited by the Japanese teacher Toshikazu Ichimura, who was at that time 5 dan aikido and 6 dan renshi in iaido. After some time, I was allowed to go to his classes, too. By then, I had already been completely mesmerized by aikido. We were a group of students of about the same age, who practiced as much as we ever could, and went to Ichimura's classes in the other dojos in the Stockholm area.
Me back in 1973 or 1974, quite scared as Ichimura attacked viciously with a bokken, the wooden sword. Filmed in Uppsala at the summer seminar.
I think it was already after one year of training that I started teaching the children's group in aikido - not doing a very good job with it, I would say. About a year later I started teaching some regular classes, and by 1976 Allan had left the dojo and I got to be in charge of the training. In those days, I was sure that I was skilled enough to do it.
Shortly before that, I had what I would like to call my first aikido satori, where suddenly everything seemed to be clear as water. I started to throw people without touching them, and so on. You know the Japanese saying: Three years on a stone...
Still, I soon got back to struggling with the basics, albeit from another perspective. The club where I started to practice aikido is still around: Järfälla Aikido Club
Revisiting my old dojo Järfälla in 2004, teaching at a seminar there. Sorry it's only in Swedish, but I think you get the idea. Filmed by Olle Dehlén.
By 1977 I had moved to another Stockholm suburb, Brandbergen, and started an aikido dojo there. At first it was a little section of the local football club, and we practiced in the small gym hall of a school in the area.
Video recording from Brandbergen in 1979. Sort of a mock class for the camera, with me talking quite a lot (in Swedish) as usual.
In 1981, a brand new sports hall was opened and we moved our aikido practice to it. In the transition we formed a regular club of our own: The Brandbergen Aikido Club, which is still very much active.
In 1991 I moved to Malmö, in the south of Sweden, and started the aikido section at the big Martial Arts dojo Enighet, which was founded already in 1892. So I got to participate in its 100th jubilee. I am still here. Here is the website of the Enighet Aikido.
Jo 31 kata in four directions, filmed at Enighet dojo in Malmö, Sweden, 2006.
Since the 1960's, Swedish aikido has been fortunate to be visited by several Japanese teachers. Many of them have come repeatedly to hold seminars, and some still do. I have had the pleasure of training for most of them, such as Tamura, Saito, Kobayashi, Igarashi, Sugano, Nishio, Endo and Takemori.
Nishio sensei held annual seminar at the Enighet dojo for some years in the 1990's. Also Sugano sensei and Tamura sensei have visited our dojo. This has been very inspiring indeed for us, and of immense value for me in trying to progress as a teacher.
Nishio Sensei teaching at a seminar in my dojo Enighet, 1993. This is the first of five videos from that seminar, filmed by Ulf Lundquist.
In 2015, I received the rank of 7 dan Aikikai Shihan. I am also 4 dan in the iai of Nishio sensei's Aikido Toho since 1996. Apart from the regular training at the Enighet dojo, I hold seminars in Sweden, Germany, Czech Republic and Slovakia. Photos of such events can be found in my aikido album.
Iaido, the sword art. Recorded at my dojo Enighet in 2006.
Being a writer by profession, I have produced some books related to aikido and the Martial Arts, some of them only in Swedish but several also in English. I've also written a book about the Chinese classic Tao te ching and the concept of Qi (ki). Scroll down to see my aikido books in English.
Iriminage as henkawaza (shifting technique), when uke resists shihonage. Filmed at a seminar in Munich, 2014.
Whether we like it or not, when people gather there is politics. Aikido is no exception. I have been in the Swedish Aikido board for some periods in the 1980's and 90's, sometimes as its Chairman, and in the board of the Swedish Budo & Martial Arts Federation, where I'm the President since 2009. I'm also a member of the Swedish aikido grading committee since 1991. In the International Aikido Federation I was its first webmaster and Assistant General Secretary for a few years in the 1990's, later a member of its Directing Committee, and its Vice Chairman 2008 - 2012.
I'm still mesmerized by the intriguing art of aikido and the endless path it presents. Not to mention how much fun it is to throw people around in all friendliness.

Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!
Light blogging for the next few days. This time of the year is very light in blog readership anyway, as everyone turns to family during the Christmas season. And frankly, I need a break from the clowns in DC.
Speaking of family though, two of my nieces have been busy this year. A little bragging is called for.
One, Delanna Studi, finished up a nationwide tour with the Broadway show, "August in Osage County".
And another, Amy Weaver, is featured in a Sears commercial and, as you'll see, does an outstanding job. Remember: cranberries:
Polar bears not "endangered" per White House – Al Gore in shock
A favored myth of the warmist alarmist is we're killing off the polar bears through AGW by melting their habitat.
Not so fast says the Obama administration:
The Obama administration is sticking with a George W. Bush-era decision to deny polar bears endangered species status. In a court filing Wednesday, the Fish and Wildlife Service defended the previous administration's decision to give the polar bear the less-protective "threatened" species designation, a move that will frustrate environmentalists who hoped for stronger protections under the Endangered Species Act.
One of the more obvious things most should understand, at least by now, is getting an animal on the endangered list isn't so much about the animal is about power. All sorts of regulatory restrictions kick in with such a designation.
And the enviros get to help enforce them. Go out on Ft. Bragg NC's maneuver areas and marvel at the red-cockaded woodpecker's power – and the the enviro monitors who sit out in the habitat area and ensure soldiers don't invade the woodpecker's space.
The same sort of power would accrue the enviros with the placement of the polar bear on the endangered list.
FWS Director Rowan Gould said the 2008 "threatened" listing was made "following careful analysis of the best scientific information, as required by the ESA." At the time, the service determined the bears weren't danger of extinction, so did not warrant the "endangered" status.
The bears were listed as "threatened" because they face serious threats from projected decline in its sea ice habitat due to global warming would result in them likely being in danger of extinction in the foreseeable future.
Typical of the "science" used by the alarmists is this:
In a news release issued after its conference last July, the PBSG concluded that only one of 19 total polar bear subpopulations is currently increasing, three are stable and eight are declining. Data was insufficient to determine numbers for the remaining seven subpopulations. The group estimated that the total number of polar bears is somewhere between 20,000 and 25,000. (Estimates of the population during the 1950s and 1960s, before harvest quotas were enacted, range from 5,000 to 10,000.)
So the polar bear population has more than doubled from the high 1950's estimate yet they're "endangered" according to some? This little caveat is also listed:
However, the PBSG quickly acknowledged that "the mixed quality of information on the different subpopulations means there is much room for error in establishing" the numbers, and "the potential for error, given the ongoing and projected changes in habitats and other potential stresses, is cause for concern."
Or said another way, "we don't know what the real polar bear population is but it must be in decline and, btw, our projected decline is based on those stellar climate change models that have been so accurate to this point". Regardless, it is hard to sell endangered species when the species has had a 100% plus growth in 50 years (with harvesting).
The "science?"
Harry Flaherty, chair of the Nunavut Wildlife Management Board in the capital of Iqaluit, says the polar bear population in the region, along the Davis Strait, has doubled during the past 10 years. He questions the official figures, which are based to a large extent on helicopter surveys.
"Scientists do a quick study one to two weeks in a helicopter, and don't see all the polar bears. We're getting totally different stories [about the bear numbers] on a daily basis from hunters and harvesters on the ground," he says.
Want to make a bet on who is right?
Bottom line: "Science" in the name of a political agenda is no science at all. And as more information continues to come out, it appears that the "science" of AGW isn't based in science so much as it is the accrual of power and control to those who would love to dictate how you must live – for the planet, of course.
Democratic Senators want to limit filibuster and change other Senate rules
Well of course they do – it gives power to the minority and prevents them from running roughshod over that minority as they attempt to push their agenda through the Senate (as is pretty much done in the House). That said, I don't have a problem with this:
Among the chief revisions that Democrats say will likely be offered: Senators could not initiate a filibuster of a bill before it reaches the floor unless they first muster 40 votes for it, and they would have to remain on the floor to sustain it. That is a change from current rules, which require the majority leader to file a cloture motion to overcome an anonymous objection to a motion to proceed, and then wait 30 hours for a vote on it.
"There need to be changes to the rules to allow filibusters to be conducted by people who actually want to block legislation instead of people being able to quietly say 'I object' and go home," said Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo.
This year, McCaskill lined up backing from more than two-thirds of senators for elimination of secret holds, which allow a senator to block action on a bill or nomination anonymously. She said that Democrats will also push plans to force senators who place holds to do it publicly.
I think that "secret holds" are anathema to open government. If a Senator objects, he or she should take ownership of that objection and have to do so publicly. That'll take care of some of the petty nonsense that is fairly routine in those sorts of holds. But:
Adding to the momentum for change, say proponents, is a push by Udall to seek a simple majority vote on changing Senate rules at the start of the session, rather than a two-thirds majority, that is gaining steam. Such a move could come at the start of next Congress, shortly after the Senate returns on January 5th.
Uh, no. Supermajority means you have to convince the minority of the efficacy of the changes. One of the reason it is so important to have the minority retain its power was illustrated in the defeat of the 1.2 trillion dollar pork package called the "Omnibus spending bill". The minority was able to kill it. I understand that really has no bearing on an internal rule change to go to a simple majority vote to make rule changes, but as with all things, that means Democrats wouldn't have to have a single minority vote to change the rules.
I say "no way". One of the most powerful and moderating things about the Senate is it almost forces negotiation with the minority before it can accomplish anything. I wonder if the "No Labels" crew will be coming out with a statement saying "keep the rules that protect the minority in the Senate". Yeah, I doubt it too.
Filibuster reform in the way McCaskill is pushing for (no more secret holds) is a good thing I think. The time change to less than 30 hours on the motion to proceed is no big deal. Changing the rule on the number of votes necessary to change the rules – i.e. go from a supermajority to a simple majority – is not a good thing and should be rejected.
Lame duck "crows"
The Dems are jumping around and engaging in a bit of back-slapping as they declare the 111th Congress a "do something" Congress. The key third word is "to" or "for". I vote for "to", as in they've done something to all of us we aren't going to like or already don't like (*cough* health care *cough*).
So while they dance around the maypole…
President Obama led his party Wednesday in celebrating the repeal of "Don't ask, don't tell," one of the several accomplishments to come during the unusually busy lame-duck session. The Senate is set to ratify the New START Treaty on Wednesday afternoon, and passed a defense authorization bill by unanimous consent in the Senate on Wednesday morning. Also up for possible passage Wednesday is legislation to fund healthcare for 9/11 first responders.
"We've had a very, very productive few weeks after this election. We took responsibility to do the things that needed to be done," Hoyer told liberal talker Bill Press on his radio show.
… I have only two questions to ask of this supposed wonderful Congress after the mid-terms.
Is access to the internet a "civil right"?
Well, of course anything can be declared a "civil right". All it takes is using the force of government via law or bureaucratic fiat (FCC imposes new rules on internet) to make something into that. But any basic understanding of the word "right" does not include something which depends on the labor, money, services or assets of a 2nd party for its fulfillment. Health care is not a "right", civil or otherwise, because in order to fulfill it, one must coerce a 2nd party provider to give the services necessary whether they want to or not.
So is the internet a "civil right"? Depends on who you ask – for the entitlement crowd, the answer is "yes":
"Broadband is becoming a basic necessity," civil-rights activist Benjamin Hooks added. And earlier this month, fellow FCC panelist Mignon Clyburn, daughter of Congressional Black Caucus leader and No. 3 House Democrat James Clyburn of South Carolina, declared that free (read: taxpayer-subsidized) access to the Internet is not only a civil right for every "nappy-headed child" in America, but is essential to their self-esteem. Every minority child, she said, "deserves to be not only connected, but to be proud of who he or she is."
Heck, the same argument could be made for any number of things – a cell phone, for instance. Any number of people I'm sure would argue that a cell phone and unlimited access to a cellular phone network has become a "basic necessity". Of course we're sliding down that slippery slope at an amazing rate of speed.
And if internet access is a "basic need", a "civil right", what about the tools necessary to access it? An account with an internet provider and a computer? Software? Michelle Malkin remarks:
Face it: A high-speed connection is no more an essential civil right than 3G cell phone service or a Netflix account. Increasing competition and restoring academic excellence in abysmal public schools is far more of an imperative to minority children than handing them iPads. Once again, Democrats are using children as human shields to provide useful cover for not so noble political goals.
And, of course that "not so noble political goal" is more government control which, of course, translates into more power accrued and more control of every aspect of your life. Malkin again:
For progressives who cloak their ambitions in the mantle of "fairness," it's all about control. It's always about control.
Precisely – and they'll use any trick in the book to enlarge it. And cloaking it in the guise of a "civil right" simply points out, again, how blatantly transparent they've gotten in their quest. This isn't about "rights" – this is about power and intrusion.
The impact of the census on House seats for 2012
We've all been wondering how it would shake out. Jamie Dupree (if you're not following him in Twitter, you should) just tweeted:
BOTTOM LINE – New York & Ohio lose 2 seats; IA, IL, LA, MA, MI, MO, NJ and PA lose one House seat.
Interesting stuff. Those are the losers. Who picks them up?
GA picks up one as does SC, AZ, UT, NV and WA. FL picks up 2 and TX picks up 4.
So … the south picks up 7 seats (-1 in LA, remember?), the west 4 and the northeast and midwest lose 11.
Suddenly we've got a little different ballgame in 2012. Why?
Don't forget, the change in House seats also changes Electoral Votes for President in 2012.
That's why.
Eric Holder acknowledges homegrown threat but can't bring himself to name it
Seriously, this sort of nonsense has to stop:
"What I am trying to do in this interview is to make people aware of the fact that the threat is real, the threat is different, the threat is constant," he said.
And the threat is from?
What was uppermost on his mind, however, is the alarming rise in the number of Americans who are more than willing to attack and kill their fellow citizens.
Yes? And who are these Americans? What do they have in common?
"It is one of the things that keeps me up at night," Holder said. "You didn't worry about this even two years ago — about individuals, about Americans, to the extent that we now do. And — that is of — of great concern."
"The threat has changed from simply worrying about foreigners coming here, to worrying about people in the United States, American citizens — raised here, born here, and who for whatever reason, have decided that they are going to become radicalized and take up arms against the nation in which they were born," he said.
Hello – what else have they in common? What has "radicalized" them?
In the last 24 months, Holder said, 126 people have been indicted on terrorist-related charges, Fifty of those people are American citizens.
"I think that what is most alarming to me is the totality of what we see, the attorney general said. "Whether it is an attempt to bomb the New York City subway system, an attempt to bring down an airplane over Detroit, an attempt to set off a bomb in Times Square … I think that gives us a sense of the breadth of the challenges that we face, and the kinds of things that our enemy is trying to do."
Holder says many of these converts to al Qaeda have something in common: a link to radical cleric Anwar Al Awlaki, an American citizen himself.
And Al Awlaki and al Qaeda are both driven by what? Al Awlaki is what sort of cleric?
"He's an extremely dangerous man. He has shown a desire to harm the United States, a desire to strike the homeland of the United States," Holder said. "He is a person who — as an American citizen — is familiar with this country and he brings a dimension, because of that American familiarity, that others do not."
Holder said that as a threat to the United States, Awlaki ranks right up there with Osama bin Laden.
"He would be on the same list with bin Laden," the attorney general said. "He's up there. I don't know whether he's one, two, three, four — I don't know. But he's certainly on the list of the people who worry me the most."
Yes, yes and what is the common thread between Awlaki, bin Laden, al Qaeda and the people who keep Holder up at night?
"I have to have all those tools available to me to try to keep the American people safe, and to do the job that I'm supposed to do as a 21st century attorney general," Holder said.
Holder said the United States has made great strides in improving its ability to detect and block attacks, which is shown by the number of would-be terrorists who have been stopped before they could kill Americans. The intelligence community is working around the clock, he said, with little time off.
Well acknowledging that every single one of the "terrorists" or "radicals" among the 50 or so apprehended this year was Muslim or a convert to Islam might go a long way in identifying the threat. Osama bin Laden, Al Awlaki and the 50 Americans all have in common their brand of radical Islam. Al Qaeda didn't just pop up because it thought it would be fun to target and kill Americans, it exists because its followers believe in a radical brand of Islam that instructs them to make war against infidels. And America is considered the infidel of infidel nations. Ergo, it is their primary target.
Without the underlying thread of their radical beliefs, they have no real reason to attack us. But, acknowledging that all 50 of the "Americans" were Muslim and the fact that all 126 arrested shared that same radical faith would mean acknowledging that Muslims are 100% of the problem. Can't do that and search granny at the airport (in the name of fairness)can we? Can't do that and risk the charge of "profiling" – something we absolutely ought to be doing until circumstance or evidence lead us to do otherwise.
Why is it we'll subject our own citizens to degrading, humiliating and intrusive searches of their person at airports and yet we won't do the logical thing necessary to actually protect our citizenry? Profiling is done everyday in law enforcement – just ask about how serial killers are identified. When a description of a perpetrator is circulated, it will have the perp's gender, race and age. That is profiling data which helps narrow the search.
To this point we haven't had a non-Muslim attacker try to blow any of us up. Why are we so shy about saying that "radical Islam" is the problem, and until they prove otherwise, the larger set of Muslims in the US are a potential threat? How do you argue otherwise given the evidence?
Does that mean we should go on a witch hunt within the American Muslim community? Of course not – but, we shouldn't avoid the fact that the threat has consistently and exclusively come from that community and that until it stops, they'll be views suspiciously, watched closely and receive the most scrutiny.
But we won't. Just as Eric Holder spent an entire interview avoiding the use of the words "Muslim" or "Islam", we'll continue to eschew the obvious and doing what is logical for the appearance of being "fair". Apparently fairness, not security, is our nation's highest priority – at least for now.
Missile defense: a necessary cost?
Discussing the START treaty that right now is being considered by the Senate, the Heritage Foundation's Conn Carroll reminds us and the Senators considering the treaty of some objective reality:
Senators should keep in mind this Administration's hostility toward missile defense to begin with. Within months of assuming office, the Obama Administration announced a $1.4 billion cut to missile defense. The successful Airborne Laser boost-phase program was cut, the Multiple Kill Vehicle and Kinetic Energy Interceptor was terminated, and the expansion of ground-based interceptors in Alaska and California were canceled. Adding insult to injury, President Obama then installed long-time anti-missile defense crusader Phillip Coyle as Associate Director for National Security in the White House Office of Science and Technology … by recess appointment. That's right—this President not only appointed the "high priest" of missile defense denialism as his top adviser on missile defense, but he did so in a way to purposefully avoid Senate consultation on the matter. This is the President some Senate conservatives want to trust? On missile defense? Really?
One way to make nuclear weapons obsolete or less desirable is to make them undeliverable. That's the purpose of the missile defense technology we've been developing over the years. Then, when you negotiate a treaty like START you negotiate from a position of strength.
Instead, we've seen a unilateral decision to throw missile defense under the bus, even while rogue nations like Iran and North Korea develop bigger and more powerful missiles every year. Not to mention the fact that both countries are supplying the technology to others and, according to news reports, providing missiles to proxies and planning on basing missiles in Venezuela.
The cuts to these programs is short-sighted and ignores a very real and growing problem. The Airborne Laser boost-phase program, for instance, has successfully intercepted ICBMs in the boost phase in tests and is able to quickly kill and engage multiple targets as they boost out toward their targets (a time when the missiles are at their most vulnerable). It is the first layer in a multilayered missile killing system which would provide this country and its allies a virtually impenetrable shield against rocket launched nuclear weapons.
Instead, we have an administration going around killing off the systems that will protect us all the while telling us that START will do the job and we should just trust the Russians (and Iranians and North Koreans one supposes).
The easiest way for a nuclear weapon to be delivered successfully is via an ICBM. Killing off our successful and front-line missile killers like the Airborne Laser boost-phase program is short sighted and dangerous. If President Obama wants START, make him negotiate. Reinstate the anti-missile programs. Then, the next time he or anyone else (hopefully) negotiates a like treaty, it will be from a position of strength that essentially renders rocket delivered nukes obsolete. That would be a nice change from the obvious unilateral disarmament we've seen in the anti- missile shield area and a subsequent negotiating position of weakness.
That's what our president should be doing, instead of giving away the farm for a piece of paper. I wonder if the new START promises "peace in our time"?
Wikileaks leaker's legal docs leaked
I'm sorry but I find this both ironic and amusing:
LAWYERS for Julian Assange have expressed anger about an alleged smear campaign against the Australian WikiLeaks founder.
Incriminating police files were published in the British newspaper that has used him as its source for hundreds of leaked US embassy cables.
They couldn't be more outraged than the hundreds of Afghans who cooperated with the US were when their lives were put in jeopardy by this guy.
Yeah, I know, "two wrongs don't make a right", but there is a certain bit of satisfying shadenfreude in the scenario. I'm sure I'll eventually get over it.

'Dangerous' Animal Proposal Sent to Residents
Toomey, Shamus, Daily Herald (Arlington Heights, IL)
Byline: Shamus Toomey Daily Herald Staff Writer
Copies of Buffalo Grove's newest "Dangerous Dog" proposed ordinance should be arriving by mail this week to some 150 residents who have gotten involved in the controversial issue.
The newest draft is similar to recent versions, but is in stark contrast to original suggestions made by a group of 60 residents who raised the issue earlier this year.
Included in the new version, which will come before the Buffalo Grove village board for consideration Monday, is new language requiring owners of animals found to be "potentially dangerous" to display signs on all entrances to the property.
In addition, the ordinance would only forbid the use of retractable leashes by owners of "potentially dangerous" animals. The village had considered banning the increasingly popular leashes altogether, but opted for a clause mandating the leashes not be extended past 8 feet when in public, according to village Health Officer Brian Sheehan.
The village mailed copies of the 14-page proposal to residents whom have either testified on the issue before the village board or asked to be notified of upcoming meetings concerning the issue, Sheehan said. …
