- Title
- Nobody uses the internet because the government says they should
- Author(s)
- Thomas, Julian; Rennie, Ellie
- Abstract
- The average house in a remote indigenous community uses about a third of the power consumed by a suburban home, is six times more prone to overcrowding, and probably doesn't have a home internet connection. Among the rare exceptions - at least for the internet - are 20 houses in the small communities of Kwale Kwale, Mungalawurru and Imangara in central Australia. With federal funding, these households have been given computers, internet access and training, and receive regular visits and advice.

CLEVELAND -- With her captor standing nearby and threatening her life, Michelle Knight was forced to deliver the baby of Amanda Berry as Berry lay in a plastic baby pool to help contain "the mess," according to a police report obtained by Channel 3 News.
"Michelle stated that Ariel told her that if the baby died, that he'd kill her," the police report states.
The report then tells of the next few harrowing minutes as Knight fought for her own life and for the life of Berry's child, Jocelyn, who had stopped breathing during the birth.
Knight, the report said, put her mouth to the Jocelyn's mouth and "breathed for her" to keep them both alive.
The police report, provided to the Investigator Tom Meyer, provides the initial details given to police by Knight, Berry and Gina DeJesus of their decade of terror, from the point at which they became captives to the time they gained freedom.
Berry told police that Castro forgot to lock the "big inside door" of the home on Monday when he left the house to go to a nearby McDonald's, the report said.
Still, Berry was trapped because the storm door was locked and she could not open it. Berry was afraid to break open the storm door because "she thought Ariel (Castro) was testing her," the report said.
Instead, Berry tried to get the attention of neighbors to help her. Berry was eventually able to get out but was unsure of the details of her escape, she told police.
Once police arrived, they checked the basement and then walked to the second floor.
"As we neared the top of the steps, Officer Espada hollered out, 'Cleveland Police,' at which time ... Knight ran and threw herself into (Officer) Espada's arms," the officer writing the report noted. "We then asked if there was anyone else upstairs with her, when (DeJesus) came out of the bedroom. "
Espada then put Knight down and DeJesus jumped into the officer's arms.
The report also notes how Castro kept their presence in his house a secret for more than a decade.
Castro kept all three chained up in the basement but eventually letting "them free from the chains, to live upstairs on the second floor of Castro's Seymour Avenue home," the report states.
If they were allowed outside, it was only in the backyard and "they had to wear wigs and sunglasses and keep their heads down."
Castro also made sure that Jocelyn did not know the real names of Knight or DeJesus in case Jocelyn spoke their names in public when Castro took her out of the house.
While Berry gave birth to one child, now 6 years old, Knight was pregnant five times but forced to abort the baby, the report said.
Knight told police that Castro "starved her for at least two weeks, then he repeatedly punched her in the stomach until she miscarried."
DeJesus told police that she did not think she ever became pregnant during her captivity.
None of the women, nor the child, was allowed to see a doctor during their captivity, the report said.
The three women also told police how they were initially abducted.
Knight said she was in the area of West 106th Street and Lorain Avenue when Castro offered her a ride home in August 2002, the report said.
Instead, Castro took her to his house where he chained her up in the basement, the report said.
Public records show that the mother of two of Castro's children lived just up the street in the 2200 block of West 106th Street at the time.
Meanwhile, Berry was walking home in April, 2003 from Burger King on West 110th Street and Lorain Avenue when Castro offered her a ride home, the report said.
Castro told her that his son also worked at Burger King. DeJesus told police that Castro initially approached her with Castro's daughter, the report said. The two girls went to school together.
Castro later returned without his daughter and told DeJesus that he would give her a ride to his house so they could hang out, the report said.
Instead, like the other two girls, Castro drove DeJesus to his house.
That was in April 2004.
After the three girls escaped, police arrested Castro and his brother, Onil, in the McDonald's parking lot on Clark Avenue. Police blocked in Castro's blue Mazda Miata convertible.
After they were handcuffed, Onil Castro asked police if this was about his brother, Pedro. "If so, he's over at our mom's house on Hyde Avenue," the report states.
Police responding to the address found Pedro Castro passed out in the backyard of the home wearing a pair of shorts but no shirt.
All three of the Castro brothers were taken to the Second District Police Station.

Review Details
Ameda Elite Breast Pump with Detachable Cord
- Product Review (submitted on April 12, 2011):
- I decided to rent this from the hospital rather than buy "in case I couldn't breastfeed". That was the beginning of December. Now I am two weeks away from going back to work and need something that I can bring with me. I'm afraid to downgrade to a personal sized pump which isn't as powerful (I currently pump with this on full force), but am afraid to damage the hospital's equipment lugging back and forth. Wish I could afford to buy this model rather than rent.

How It Works
Methotrexate is similar to the vitamin called folic acid. It works by competing with folic acid in cells. This blocks the way the cell is able to make genetic material, and the cell dies.
Methotrexate may be given as a pill or as a shot in the vein (intravenously, or IV) or in the muscle (intramuscularly, or IM).
Why It Is Used
Methotrexate can be used to treat several conditions and diseases, including:
- Cancer. Methotrexate slows or stops the growth of cancer cells in the body. It may be given with other medicines.
Autoimmune diseases
, such as:
- Rheumatoid arthritis. Methotrexate may be used alone or with other medicines to control the progression of rheumatoid arthritis.
- Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Methotrexate is safe and effective for children with JIA. It is generally used for children who do not respond to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. It is also used to treat resistant chronic uveitis in children with JIA.
- Psoriasis. Methotrexate slows the rapid growth of skin cells in psoriasis.
- Sjögren's syndrome. Methotrexate is generally used for people who do not respond to other medicine for Sjögren's syndrome.
- Ectopic pregnancy . Methotrexate is used with leucovorin to end an ectopic pregnancy or to prevent the growth of any fetal cells that are left behind after surgery to end an ectopic pregnancy.
- Medical abortion. Methotrexate is used with misoprostol in early pregnancy for medical abortion.
How Well It Works
Methotrexate effectively treats many conditions and diseases, including:
- Cancer. The type and extent of a cancer will determine whether methotrexate is used. It is commonly used in combination with other chemotherapy medicines.
- Autoimmune diseases. Methotrexate is used to relieve joint pain and other symptoms. It is given to help control diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, psoriasis, and Sjögren's syndrome.
- Ectopic pregnancy. Methotrexate is used to end an ectopic pregnancy in early pregnancy. It is not used to treat a ruptured ectopic pregnancy.
Side Effects
Side effects from methotrexate are usually temporary and occur more often with long-term use. Side effects may include:
- Nausea, vomiting, and loss of appetite.
- Fatigue and sleep disturbances.
- Low blood counts.
Less common side effects include:
- Sun sensitivity and easy sunburning.
- Diarrhea or blood in the stool.
- Mouth sores.
- Easy bruising and bleeding.
- Skin rash or sores.
- Headaches.
- Chills and fever.
- Lightheadedness.
Long-term side effects may include:
- Liver damage. The risk of liver damage is increased in people who have other problems, such as diabetes, liver disease, or a history of alcohol abuse.
- Lung problems.
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects. (Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
What To Think About
Methotrexate can cause birth defects. Do not use this drug if you are pregnant or wish to become pregnant or father a child while you are taking it.
Many antibiotics can increase the level of methotrexate in your blood. Make sure your doctor knows that you are taking methotrexate if you need to take an antibiotic for another problem.
You will have your blood drawn often while you are taking methotrexate.
Do not drink alcoholic beverages, including beer and wine, while you are being treated with methotrexate.

Who's gonna watch the enhanced pilot episode tonight? Maybe it will give us some clues to how this will all play out.
I feel so nerdy being this excited about a tv show but I can't help it.
And what are everyone's predictions? We can come back after the finale and see who nailed it.
Nothing at all yet? Haha I know this board is full of Lost-watchers...
Kansas wears Adidas.
I'm going to try to watch the pilot episode tonight as well. Going to unplug the phone, shut the shades, and put a "Go Away, I'm watching LOST" sign on the front door. It's my only option.

Yeah I'm watching the enhanced version of the pilot right now... I'd recommend doing that.
Cannot wait for tonight!!!! 2 1/2 hours of awesomeness!!!!

Are they showing or saying anything special with this version?
Can't wait. For some reason I've got a feeling that Jack will only be able to protect the island for a short time, as Jacob said 'for as long as you can' when he asked for how long.
Originally Posted by bstegs

Special? Not really. It's more of a refresher more than anything... basically sums everything up nicely.
I was hoping it would explain what Locke said to Walt after he said, "Walt, do you want to know a secret?" But of course it didn't.
I know one thing about tonight...there will be a lot of people upset at the ending. It's inevitable. There's no way everything will be explained, and many want that.
I'm just hoping it's a better end to a series than the Sopranos or St. Elsewhere.
Forever trying to find a cure for the Dunning-Kruger Effect.
The pilot was great last night. Nothing earth shattering, but lots of little tidbits that are good reminders.
Love the series, but in some respects will be happy when it's over. It's become addictive for me and will be nice not having to zone everything else out the hour or two it's on.
Who else thought Jack was going to be the go to guy at the end? I thought Sawyer might have an outside chance at it, but figured Jack would be the guy.
My hope it's a happy ending and in the end everybody is living in the reality that we've been observing this season.
Any guesses as to how many deaths are there going to be tonight? I could see Sawyer or Ben sacrificing himself for the good of mankind. But then again, if the island is destroyed like MIB wishes, I guess everyone might die?
No idea about the flash sideways though...
I still have a weird feeling about the end. I have a sneaking suspicion that Jack wont be the man and the whole candidate thing is actually nothing.

The technique of rock setting, Grande Reverso Rock Setting
Most of the surface is given over to baguette-cut precious stones that are easier to align next to other. The backing, the material between the stones, has disappeared, leaving only brilliance. This gem-setting method is just one of the secrets jealously highly guarded by Jaeger-LeCoultre. This technique has reached such a degree of purity that it makes itself invisible allowing the beauty of this timepiece to shine through.

Defining the Hot Rod and Custom Car Legacy WheelsWritten by Chris Shelton on November 20, 2013 Contributors: Laurie Petereson Part 2: Alloy Wheels
Last month we set out to define the wheels that revolutionized the hot rod and custom car market. That's a huge subject to broach; cars have worn all sorts of wheels over the past 100 or so years. So we began where the market began: with OEM and early accessory steel wheels. Even that niche is so broad that we had to narrow our scope to include only the really noteworthy ones.
This month we're fixing our scopes on the aftermarket magnesium and aluminum wheel market. Though broad, the steel wheel segment is merely a few degrees wide compared to the alloy wheel market.
With almost no exceptions, the alloy wheel market exists exclusively as an aftermarket entity. The aftermarket relies on the publishing industry, and according to the abundance and variety of wheels made over the years, we editors did a damn fine job of helping manufacturers sell wheels.
For this reason we're not even going to pretend that what follows is even remotely close to comprehensive. Every time you think you've seen it all along comes another wheel that proves you wrong.
Halibrand Engineering
As far as American wheels are concerned, without a doubt all paths in the alloy wheel world lead here. Founded by a Douglas Aircraft service rep in 1947, Halibrand Engineering set the mold by making molds for the first performance-oriented American road wheels.
Ted Halibrand began making 12-inch wheels for Midget race cars. (Until then racers made their wheels by welding utility trailer rims to Model T drums.) He then cast wheels for the Rudge-derived hubs that Indianapolis roadsters used, but when he encountered wear problems in the broach, he drew upon his Midget racing roots and made his own hubs. Like the Midget hubs they engaged the wheel at six mounting points, and like the Rudge hub one oversized fastener held the wheel tight. The six-pin knock-off wheel prevailed in nearly every form of racing for decades thereafter.
Halibrand made wheels for pretty much every form of auto racing in America: Midgets, Sprint Cars, Champ cars, IndyCars, Formula 1 cars, Le Mans cars, and even the Cobra rode on lightweight Halibrand wheels. The array is staggeringly diverse: Halibrand's pattern makers altered wheel designs to meet racers' seemingly infinite array of needs.
There is only one thing consistent among Halibrand wheels made when Halibrand owned the company: magnesium alloy, the lightest of the light metals. In fact, the material is so esteemed that it serves as the inspiration for "mag", a term that incorrectly gets applied to any non-steel wheel. It's a good idea to have any vintage Halibrand professionally crack tested, not because magnesium is inherently crack prone but because of the rough lives most of these wheels lived.
Halibrand changed hands a number of times and briefly belonged to Tom and Harry Jackman of Jackman wheel fame. Despite folklore that even I once (and regretfully) helped propagate, the Jackmans did not repurpose any of the Halibrand patterns as firewood. Subsequent owners did cast wheels from aluminum under the Halibrand Engineering name for a limited time.
Halibrand lives on officially as Halibrand Performance. Its owner, Richard LeJuerrne, casts new aluminum wheels from a combination of original patterns and new dies. Eric Vaughn as Real Wheels produced interpretations of Halibrand's wheels. Pat O'Brien purchased the company, renamed it Real Rodder Wheels, and casts an expanded catalog. Progressive manufacturing techniques increase casting density, a feature that makes the wheels stronger and hold a polish longer.
American Racing Equipment
Probably no other part is as immediately recognizable as the five-spoke wheel that American Racing Equipment introduced in 1960. Though copied with impunity, the company gets the ultimate honor: show any enthusiast a copycat five-spoke wheel and chances are they'll identify it as a Torq-Thrust.
Though American Racing Equipment owes its legacy to its founder, Romeo Palamides, Palamides owes the wheel that put him on the map to circle-track legend Rolla Vollstedt. Vollstedt had wood patterns made to cast a dished magnesium wheel. "My wheels were just solid, they had no spokes," he says. "I had the pattern made so I could put a spacer in and make the wheel an inch wider, you know so I could run them on the front or rear.
"But then I found that I could buy them ready-made from Halibrand for less than it cost me," he says. "I sold my patterns to a guy down around the Bay Area named Romeo Palamides." Palamides made them his own by first adding material to create trapezoidal holes in the wheel face and further widened the wheels.
When they debuted on Palamides' handsome dragster that graced the cover of the Nov. '56 Hot Rod, Palamides Racing Equipment was born. When Palamides asked to be cashed out so he could go racing, machinist Jim Ellison and engineer Tom Griffith changed the name to American Racing Equipment.
American Racing introduced dozens of wheel variations over its long and storied history—far too many than we can honor here. It still produces relatively faithful copies of many of its most famous wheels to this day.
Wheel Centre Co. and E-T Wheels
In 1960 schoolteacher Dick Beith started making wheels in his shop class. In 1962 he founded Wheel Centre Co. Though his first production wheel resembles the American Racing Torq-Thrust, Beith was a true pioneer. For one, he produced his E-T Mag in aluminum four years before American did (yes, we recognize the irony of calling an aluminum wheel a mag). But probably his single greatest contribution was one of the most significant for its time: rather than drill each wheel with a specific pattern the company cast five slots and employed offset washers to adapt it to vehicles with 4.5-, 4.75-, and 5-inch wheel-mounting patterns. Though looked down upon by purists, Beith's Uni-Lug pattern revolutionized the aftermarket-wheel industry by reducing retailers' inventory and making wheels more available for less cost.
Typical for manufacturers riding the "big wheel" trend of the 1960s, Beith's company expanded to create several varieties. It also regularly improved the design, adopted die-casting, and employed higher-tech alloys among other things. In 1967 it introduced the E-T II, a most curious wheel that paired the outer half of a cast five-spoke wheel with the inner half of a steel rim.
Scott Russell at Team III Wheels still produces Beith's most enduring wheels. Like Beith, Russell casts the wheels in permanent molds for increased strength, detail, and shine retention. He also forewent the Uni-Lug mounting drills each wheel for a specific pattern.
Ansen Automotive Engineering
Upon returning from the service after World War II, Navy machinist Lou Senter went to work for speed merchant and mechanic Eddie Meyer. In 1947 he partnered with his brother Sol to open Senter Engineering. In 1948 the Senter brothers and Jack Andrews combined their efforts and their names to form Ansen Automotive Engineering.
According to Lou Senter, by the mid '50s Ansen offered 1,000 part numbers. More incredibly, Ansen made most of those parts. The shifters, pedal assemblies, and engine-mounting kits alone turned garden-variety mechanics into hot rod legends across the country.
Ansen produced several wheels. The Top Eliminator capitalized upon the Torq-Thrust design but featured rounded spokes. The seldom-seen Arrow resembled the Top Eliminator but had an oversized snout. The novel Apollo capitalized upon the Arrow's larger hub by using a wing nut to fasten the wheels to steel hubs that bolted to the car. It was a true knock-off design, something that appealed to his Sprint Car roots.
Though relatively successful, Senter admitted that he needed to produce his own wheel. He once again drew inspiration from his circle-track exploits, this time by loosely basing his design on Halibrand's highly esteemed wheels. "I just machined off the rib around each hole in his wheel," he admits. "If you look at them, Halibrand's wheels have an oval hole behind that lip. That's my wheel."
Of course that's the grossly oversimplified version. What Senter did was bring modern die-casting techniques to bear on an old profession. By centrifugally casting the wheels with high-strength alloys he created wheels as strong as they were beautiful for less time and money than typical sand-cast wheels cost. He named the new wheel the Sprint in honor of its background.
Like the Torq-Thrust, the Ansen Sprint is one of the most copied wheels in the industry, a sign of a good idea for sure. American Racing currently produces a range of Sprint sizes.
Rocket Racing Wheels
The wheels Rocket Racing Wheels released in the 1970s existed as interpretations of popular models, primarily the Cragar Super Sport. As interest died out for composite wheels in the 1980s and 1990s so did demand for Rocket's products.
Recently David Coker, brother of Coker Tire's Corky Coker, resurrected the Rocket brand. Only instead of resurrecting the obsolete parts with it, he struck the company in a new mold by literally making new precision molds.
Rocket created several original wheel designs but it also produces interpretations of enduring wheel styles. The company drills the wheels for 4.5, 4.75, 5, and 5.5 patterns to use conventional 60-degree conical-seat bulge lug nuts. All wheels are available with a cast-style finish or fully polished and some like the Launcher and Igniter feature a cast-style center and machined lip.

We're skipping a number of incremental changes but the brake vents grew larger as the years progressed. By the 1960s Halibrand cast 15- and 16-inch wheels with large oval vents.This is the Halibrand that most of us know, the one with the trapezoidal brow around the brake vent. Note that the vent remains as an oval hole below. Also note the wing nut and five-pin pressure plate used to convert conventional passenger-car hubs to knock-off use (this is a Corvette road racer). Real Rodders Wheels and Halibrand Performance produce this as a bolt-on aluminum wheel.In the mid 1950s Halibrand produced what amounts to the first bolt-on all-alloy wheels for passenger cars. This was merely an adaptation of a wheel cast as a pin-drive wheel for sports cars with five-lug hubs. Several companies like Halibrand Performance and Team III produce a similar version as noted later.American Racing introduced the magnesium Torq-Thrust in 1960. It later produced a round-spoke magnesium version. The aluminum Torq-Thrust debuted in 1966 (the 15x6 wheels were called Sport Wheels). All 15-inch aluminum Torq-Thrust wheels had peaked spokes but 14s had rounded spokes. All aluminum American Racing wheels boast the company name on the backside.In 1968 American released the 200S, aka the Daisy or Coke-bottle spoke. These were some of the first wheels the company mass-produced without the hallmark five-screw center-cap flange.Here it is, the first wheel style Romeo Palamides ever cast as shot for Hot Rod magazine in February 1957. A later production version has smaller rounded holes without the lips. Another introduced in 1967—the Standard—has larger, squarer openings, again without lips. All are magnesium.Team III also produces a bolt-on wheel that resembles the later Halibrand spindle-mount wheel. Russell thought that eliminating the smaller ribs to accommodate the lug nuts was a novel idea until he saw an early model that Halibrand cast and machined for lug nuts in the 1960s.Recognizing the popularity of the American 12-spoke wheel and the perils of running without brakes, Team III/E-T Wheel introduced its own version. The five-lug mounting dictates the 10 spokes but it makes the point and does it safer than wheels without brakes.
Eliminating the lips around the holes let Ansen machine the wheels with a tracer lathe, something that increased production and reduced costs. Ansen produced this design in 13-, 14-, 15-, and 16-inch diameters from 4.5 to 14 inches wide.Known as the International Dragmaster and the American Dragmaster depending on the era, this wheel borrowed pretty heavily from the Ansen design. Oddly enough, another Torq-Thrust clone wore the Dragmaster name.The Sprint wasn't Ansen's first wheel. That distinction goes to a Torq-Thrust copy called the Top Eliminator and two semi-original wheels called the Arrow and Apollo. The Apollo was a true knock-off design complete with its own hub that used special lug nuts as locating pins.The Rocket Launcher evokes American Racing's 12-spoke wheel, albeit with 10 thicker spokes that don't offset as greatly. Like their inspirations, these are available in only one narrow size: 15x4.5.Rocket initially created the Injector as a rear-wheel counterpart to the Launcher but now offers it in a range of sizes from 15x4.5 to 15x10. Unlike the others it's available only in as-cast or fully polished finish.

October 2010
by Lt. Gen. Lawrence P. Farrell, Jr., USAF (Ret)
Much has been said about the approaching and converging financial storm fronts on the defense industry and the projected budget adjustments. One element of the coming change has been the efficiency initiative unveiled by Defense Secretary Robert Gates and its accompanying efforts in the weapons-acquisition area announced by Undersecretary of Defense Ashton Carter. Industry CEOs are just now beginning to learn details about the proposed reforms and their implications. The initiatives will focus on internal Defense Department processes and procedures that deal with, among other things, the contracts that will be used in the future for development and production of defense articles and services.The trend seems to be away from cost-plus award fees to fixed-price contracts that shift more of the risk to industry. Specifics on the implementation and policy/process to achieve these initiatives will likely roll out over several months. NDIA will follow this closely. Stay tuned as we continue to learn more about the new measures.Two other areas of concern, meanwhile, are now working their way through the regulatory system: One is the Interim Federal Acquisition Regulation rule on executive compensation reporting. The second is the 3 percent tax withholding law that is scheduled to become effective Jan. 1.The interim FAR rule implements the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) of 2006 which requires the Office of Management and Budget to establish a free public website containing full disclosure of all federal contract award information. The Government Funding Transparency Act of 2008 (Section 6202) subsequently amended this rule. This last act was buried in the Government Wide Supplement Appropriations Act for 2008. The amendment requires the website to include the names and compensation of the five most highly paid employees of companies that receive prime contracts worth more than $25,000. The General Services Administration incorporated an additional rule that called for compensation disclosure for so-called "tier one" subcontractors. NDIA, in concert with The Council of Defense and Space Industry Associations (CODSIA), objected to this proposal. The letter to GSA can be obtained at: firstname.lastname@example.com. CODSIA concluded that not only did the law place excessive burdens on industry, but that it went beyond it in adding subcontractors to the requirement. The recommendation from CODSIA is asking the executive agencies involved to seek some relief from Congress on the most severe provisions of the law. There are many reasons for industry objections. The reporting of compensation for privately held companies is certainly one, while the additional administrative responsibility on medium and small companies is another, as they already struggle with excessive reporting demands. All defense firms should become more familiar with this issue.Next is the 3 percent withholding tax. This was enacted in Section 511 of the Tax Increase Prevention and Reconciliation Act of 2005 (P.L. 109-222) as section 3402(t) of the Internal Revenue Service code. It mandates that federal, state and local governments withhold 3 percent of nearly all contractors' payments, Medicare payments, farm payments and other grants. The premise of the law is that some government contractors are not paying their taxes, and this will ensure compliance. NDIA and other associations have objected vigorously to this law as it appears unfair on its face. First, the IRS has many ways to enforce tax collection, and since its passage, many more methods have come in force. Second, the vast majority of government contractors are current on tax obligations. Why burden all of these tax compliant companies to address the problems of a few violators? Some large companies may be able to shoulder this unreasonable demand, but many medium size companies and most, if not all, small businesses will be unable to comply with this draconian rule and stay in business. Cash-strapped small businesses would be forced to increase debt levels and lines of credit. As prime contractors adjust to this demand, the fear is that the burden will be passed down to subcontractors, many of which are small businesses. NDIA contends that withholding 3 percent as a flat percentage of government payments bears no relationship to companies' taxable incomes and will restrict the cash flow needed for day-to-day operations and investments. This also adds substantially to administrative and capital investment costs not only for business but for government as well. The final objection is that this rule will be difficult to implement, and promises to be costly. The Defense Department reported to Congress in 2008 that this law would cost $17 billion over five years to execute. When combined with the current downturn in the economy and the pressure from ongoing Pentagon cost-saving efficiencies, it is difficult to make any sense of this legislation. A letter to the House Ways and Means Committee and the Senate Committee on Finance that is being sent on behalf of industry makes the case for legislative relief.These issues reflect the tough economic times we face and the increasing burden that defense firms are being asked to bear in an ever more difficult environment for doing business.

|This article or section needs to be cleaned up to meet the standards of GTA Wiki
- "We always use people like you. Michelle - Karen...she was the same. Someone with something to lose, but not much to live for."
- ―U.L. Paper Contact, to Niko Bellic.
Portrait of a Killer is a mission in Grand Theft Auto IV, given to United Liberty Paper. In this mission, the ULP wants Niko to kill Adam Dimayev, the Russian owner of an imports/exports company who is financing terrorist activity.
Niko Bellic is sent by United Liberty Paper to finish off Adam Dimayev and his goons. Niko goes over to a compound in Dukes. There he kills Dimayev and his goons.
Mission objectives
In order to complete the mission the player must:
- Your contact will send you a picture of the target. Read the message when it arrives
- Get a cop car
- Access the police computer
- Use the police computer to locate your target
- Go to Dimayev's hangout
- Dimayev is there with his guards. Eliminate them all
- Dimayev's goons
- Adam Dimayev
After the initial cutscene, United Liberty Paper will message you a photo of the target. You must acquire a police car to access the computer's search-by-photo option, in order to get Dimayev's location on your radar, in East Island City. Jump onto Adam Dimayev's property and go to the right of the compound. Dimayev himself is in the doorway of the small trailer on the right side of the first tier of the compound. If you fail to kill him in this spot but alert him and his goons to your presence, he will flee toward the roof where you will have the option of killing him or letting him go. Either way, his goons must be eliminated.
An easy way to ensure killing Dimayev before he flees is to snipe at him from the bushes across the street. The entire first tier of guys can be eliminated in this fashion without one of their bullets reaching you.
If you fail to or opt not to eliminate Dimayev out front, he will flee to the roof of the small building on the second tier of the compound. Gain cover behind a car or dumpster and kill the goons on the first tier (if you haven't already sniped them all). Climb the ladder or walk around the wall on right side to reach the second tier. Another smattering of guards awaits; climbing onto a shipping container to gain the higher ground is a good strategy here. Climbing more containers, you'll reach the roof to finish off Adam. Kill Dimayev, and then leave the area. Niko will automatically phone United Liberty Paper and tell him that he "served his purpose."
Video Walkthrough
- Adam Dimayev - Killed by Niko on orders of U.L Paper .
- Unnamed Russian Goon (optional) - Killed by Niko for attempting to kill him.
- Dimayev's goons - Killed by Niko for defending Adam Dimayev.
- If you had first killed Adam Dimayev before he can flee to the roof then you killed his remaining goons until the last one (the last guard on the roof of the small building on the second tier of the compound). He's still shooting at you but when you reach him close enough, he would throw his gun then you will have the option of killing him or letting him go.

Taggart: Britain's longest running crime drama: DVD
Here's a bonus review...and this time it's a DVD
By Oline H. Cogdill
Sun-Sentinel Mystery Columnist
Taggart, Set 1. Acorn Media. DVD three-volumes boxed set; seven episodes, 398 minutes. $49.99.
It's quite likely that even the most devoted crime-drama aficionados have only heard about the TV series Taggart.
Seeing it is a different matter.
Especially if the viewers are American.
Taggart is Britain's longest running crime drama now entering its 26th year, making it even older than the original Law & Order, never mind its spin-offs. Taggart premiered in the U.K. in September, 1983.
Finally Americans can view Taggart with Acorn Media's DVD release of its 19th season, a three-volume set with seven episodes.
If the 19th season is any indication of the series' quality, then audiences will be eager for Taggart's other seasons.
Taggart follows a team of Glasgow police detectives as they investigate an odd assortment of crimes. Black humor and an appreciation of the Scottish setting, including its seamier side, are a Taggart hallmark.
Think of it as a mixture of Homicide: Life on the Streets and Law & Order: Criminal Intent.
DCI Matt Burke (Alex Norton, Braveheart), Jackie Reid (Blythe Duff), Stuart Fraser (Colin McCredie, Shallow Grave), and Robbie Ross (John Michie, To Walk With Lions) are the current team in Glasgow's murder unit.
Like Law & Order, Taggart has had several turnovers in its lead cast, including the death of its title character. Detective Chief Inspector Jim Taggart was played by Mark McManus until his death in 1994. The unit was then taken over by James McPherson ad DCI Mike Jardine. Now Alex Norton leads the team as DCI Matt Burke.
Taggart also has been a revolving door for some of Britain's best theater and up-and-coming actors, just as Law & Order fulfills that duty in America.
The 19th season's plots are multi-layered with good twists. While the detectives are tough, they also are easy to relate to. The DVD also includes a look at the Scottish locations used.
Taggart is catnip for crime drama fans.

President Obama: Don't cut Social Security
As part of the fiscal showdown negotiations, President Obama has proposed cutting Social Security for almost all current and future beneficiaries.
Social Security should not be a part of the negotiations. It does not contribute even $1 to the deficit, and according to even the most pessimistic projections it is 100% solvent for more than 20 years.
Send an email to the White House telling President Obama to immediately stop proposing any cuts to Social Security.

Extra patrols are gone from a Greenville neighborhood that saw stepped up patrols following a murder earlier this year, and apparently the criminals have noticed.
There have been two home break-ins recently on Westpointe Drive.
Samantha Grier returned from vacation to find her back door kicked in and some of her possessions missing.
According to police reports, another apartment on Westpointe Drive was also broken into Thursday where a number of electronics were reported missing.
Back in January Greenville Police set up the mobile crime unit and heavily patrolled the Westpointe area for several days after a shooting on Westgate Drive and a murder on Westridge Court happened in the same week.
Sergeant Joe Friday said, "Our presence naturally suppressed a lot of things. Naturally, that has had to taper off and we are using that model in other areas in the city. You know, just because you don't see an officer all the time is not an indication that we are not there."
Friday says both break-ins are being treated as related and both are still under investigation.

It all began in 1976 when a small steel fabrication business launched by Wolfgang Schroeter started manufacturing steel railings in Barrie, Ontario, Canada. At that time, no one could imagine the incredible future that lay ahead for Wolf Steel Ltd. and eventually Napoleon® Fireplaces and Napoleon® Gourmet Grills. Since the first wood stove rolled off the production line over 30 years ago, Wolf Steel's commitment was to be distinctive and successful in everything they do. The Napoleon's commitment to producing quality products combined with honest, reliable service has proven to be a successful framework to ensuring the continued rapid growth of the company. Napoleon® is an ISO9001 - 2000 registered company and now operates with 500,000+ square feet of manufacturing space and over 500 employees. They are North America's largest privately owned manufacturer of quality wood and gas fireplaces (inserts and stoves), gourmet gas and charcoal grills, outdoor living products and waterfalls.

Great training top.
Pros: Fit, Looks, Color (Black), Cut are all great!
You feel like a Nike Sponsored Pro with it on. Overall I see myself using this top to train for Long Course. Rear pockets can hold 2-3 Gu's per pocket without bouncing out on the bike/run. Or a Gu and a PowerAid Zero Drops bottle (with wrapper pealed off and cleaned, it makes a handy small water bottle that can be tossed or reused)
First: Zipper will start to creap down if you do not pull it up to the very top to lock it in place.
Second: That there is not a matching short for these, If Nike had a matching short I would use this as my race kit. Side note: I ordered the Nike Tri 9in Stealth, and the look and fabric is very, very different. So if your spouse is the kind of person that would point that out with a smerk, roll her eyes, or just give you that something is not right stare before you hit the door, then you may want to get a Tri "kit" under the same style name and make sure that the fabrics match..
Overall: For the price, its a great buy.. If you just need a top.

a little short, but great material
I need it about 2 inches longer. However, I generally wear large tall shirts. However, I LOVE the material and think it would last for many miles. ...still, it's just to short for my torso.
I really liked the feel and support of this top - and best of all no sore nips after a long run!
Erik D.
Very good. Vary rare to find Nike Tri items

had a little chafing on the backs of my arms from the swim but still an awesome suit.

What is RM Cash
timothy in AL
Alarm is plenty sensitive enough. shock sensor worked great, tilt sensor worked great, and starter sensor worked great. Easy to install with basic knowledge, no real mechanical experience needed but it will help, and it comes with two remotes. The bad: remotes are plastic and i can see them breaking fairly easily, Siren sounds like a cheap police car toy BUT IT IS PRETTY LOUD, makes chirp sounds when arming and disarming which id rather it be a light flash with no tone, and every time you turn the ignition off it will chirp twice. if you like attention the chirp may be for you, I do not want anymore attention drawn to the bike in certain areas so a choice of chirp or lights only would have been nice. With the knowledge of this review i would recommend this product for the person on a tight budget.Read All Reviews

Old St. Albans arrest records provide window to the past
ST. ALBANS, W.Va. -- Crooks have changed a lot in 60 years.
"People used to dress up to get arrested," said Capt. James Agee, a 23-year veteran of the St. Albans Police Department.
Recently, Agee began going through old city arrest records, part of the process of converting boxes full of paper into computerized files. The files, some going back to the late 1940s and early 1950s, provide a glimpse into life several decades ago.
Judging by the arrest records and accompanying photographs, Agee was struck by some of the differences between criminals in the 1950s and today.
For one thing, those who were arrested were almost always employed, presumably hard-working men and women who ended up on the wrong side of the booking desk.
"Here's the Maytag repairman," said Agee, flipping through old arrest files that typically include a fingerprint card listing a suspect's vital information, a photograph and a typewritten sheet of paper. "He got arrested."
Ross Edward Lawrence, an Air Force crewman, was arrested in 1953 in full uniform. He listed his occupation as "bomb operator."
Basil Clifton Starcher, a traveling vacuum cleaner salesman, was arrested in July 1953. His mug shot shows Starcher in a jacket and tie, the left sleeve of his suit jacket neatly pinned over the stump of his left arm.
Police officers aren't necessarily the best spellers. A notation on Starcher's arrest record says his left arm is "amputated at the elbo."
Agee noticed that most of the people arrested in the 1940s and '50s were well-dressed. Earl Franklin Jinks was picked up in 1951 in a double-breasted pinstripe suit, the wide collars of his shirt spilling audaciously over his lapels.
"He's stylin' and profilin'," Agee said.
Elizabeth Burn Hammel, born in 1890, was arrested in 1953. "Very nice dress," Agee said, looking at her mug shot. "And pearls.
"And drinking."
That, at least, is familiar. "One thing that hasn't changed is the bulk of your arrests are alcohol-related," Agee said.
By far the most common charge in the old files is intoxication. Many are repeat offenders.
"This guy who was born in 1878," Agee said, looking at an arrest card. "He's still drinking 80 years later." Another man, Charles Graham, picked up yet again in 1948, had an arrest record going back into the 1930s.
The arrest records also provide a glimpse into the social attitudes of the time.
Most of those arrested in the 1940s and '50s were white. In the parlance of the day, black suspects were sometimes listed as Negro and sometimes as "colored." Sometimes no reference was made to race at all.
And Agee noticed that officers listed the complexions of a huge number of suspects as "ruddy."
"I don't know what that means," he admitted.
Not everyone arrested 60 years ago was picked up for drunk driving or public intoxication.
Ronald E. Lawrence Jr., a mechanic at a local car dealership, looks oddly pleased with himself in his 1953 mug shot. His arrest record lists the charge simply as "fornication."
"I'm not sure of the circumstances," Agee said. "Maybe there was a whole ring of them. I don't know."

The crowd in the Tacoma Dome on Saturday night knew they were getting ready to see and hear something very special! The night started with an amazing setlist from Chris Young who is a rare breed among young country artist today. He brings the energy of his youth, and combines it with a true country sound. And he has the gift of making everyone in the audience feel like he is there just for them. He was well received, but then...then the King arrived!
George Strait strolled on stage with a Texas swagger that speaks of humility and confidence all at the same time. Even the way he threw his guitar strap over his shoulder was cool! He sported the always perfectly pressed shirt and Wranglers that only a true cowboy knows how to pull off, and even at 61 years of age the ladies both young and old love George! This was evident in how may of them had tears in their eyes through out the night. Well, I should mention there were more than a few cowboys that had tears in their eyes as well!
The CMA Entertainer of the year kicked off the concert with "The Fireman" as the Texas band, Ace in The Hole, backed him up and didn't miss a beat. He said goodbye after a cover of Tom Petty's "You Wreck Me", but the crowd wouldn't have it! They brought him back out for an encore with roars, screams, and applause that combined sounded like a Texas tornado.
George finished up the night with "Same Kind of Crazy", the classic "All My Ex's Live in Texas", and he absolutely nailed a cover of Johnny Cash's "Folsom County Blues", but he wasn't done yet. As the crowd remained standing this true cowboy said goodbye to his fans with, "The Cowboy Rides Away." At that moment the crowd knew they were possibly watching the last of the true country music artist. King George didn't have on skinny jeans, dangling earrings, and sing pop music with a slight twang. No, he is the real deal, and this was real country music. And don't worry folks, the Troubadour may be riding off into the sunset, but his music will live on forever.

One dead from crash south of New Paris
NEW PARIS — A Warsaw man is dead following a single vehicle car accident south of New Paris this morning.
According to the Elkhart County Sheriff's Department, a pick-up truck pulling a travel trailer was headed south on S.R. 15 when it ran off the road south of C.R. 50 at about 9 a.m., hitting a tree and sliding into a ditch on the west side of S.R. 15.
Steven Eigsti, 21, of Warsaw was a passenger in the truck and trapped in the truck after the accident. Police needed to extract Eigsti from the truck. He was pronounced dead at the scene from injuries.
Brandon Eigsti, 25, of Warsaw was driving the truck and sustained bleeding from the nose from the crash.
According to the crash report, Brandon Eigsti was wearing a seat belt, while Steven Eigsti was not.
The Elkhart County Sheriff's Department is investigating the incident.
