FOXBOROUGH, Mass -- It's fair to say that Kevin Alston knows a thing or two about the challenges he and his Revolution teammates face against the Philadelphia Union at PPL Park on Saturday.
Since the Union joined the league in 2010, the fifth-year defender has met them on the pitch on six different occasions. But his knowledge on the conference rival doesn't end there.
From 2003 to 2006, Alston was a member U.S. Soccer's Residency Program and the Under-17 National Team. His coach at the time? Current Philadelphia head coach John Hackworth.
So what is Alston expecting on Saturday from "Coach Hack" and the Union?
"They're full of life and, in matching with Coach Hack's style, they pressure hard all the time," Alston said. "They've got a lot of energy and they're always on you, no matter where you are."
Dealing with the Union has proven to be tricky for the Revolution over the years. Although both clubs have found limited success over the past three seasons, the Revs are still searching for their first victory against the Union (0-4-3).
In their last trip to PPL Park on Oct. 6, Jack McInerney struck in the 73rd minute to doom the Revs to another defeat. But much has changed for both clubs since last year's late-season affair.
During the winter, Philadelphia sent All-Star center back Carlos Valdes on loan but re-acquired striker Sebastien LeToux. Meanwhile, the Revs' revamped defense features first-round pick Andrew Farrell and veteran center back Jose Goncalves.
The changes have yielded immediate results for Hackworth and Revolution head coach Jay Heaps. Philadelphia is fresh off a shock 2-1 win in Colorado, while New England beat Chicago, 1-0, for the first time in seven years in last week's season opener.
New England's triumph in the Windy City was an encouraging sign for Heaps, but he warned that it was far from a perfect performance.
"It was a good first test," Heaps said. "We withstood some of the pressure, but there were times when we played ourselves into trouble. That's something we have to get better at (to) make sure that we don't put ourselves in trouble areas."
One point of emphasis Heaps has stressed this week is playing smart and avoiding the trap of playing into their opponents' strengths -- something that caught the head coach's attention while reviewing the game film from last week.
"We played a little bit into what we knew were (Chicago's) strengths, which (included) a couple of blind balls in the midfield where (Joel) Lindpere, (Chris) Rolfe and Jeff (Larentowicz) are going to step in and win those balls," Heaps said. "So that was an area where we talked about it, but we still did it on the pitch and that's an area we have to get better."
If they don't, count on Michael Farfan and Brian Carroll tipping the field in Philadelphia's favor. And if that happens, it's only a matter of time before McInerney -- who's scored three career goals against New England -- and LeToux set their sights on the New England net.
The way Alston sees it, the key to ending the Revolution's seven-game winless mark against the Union will depend on how well they cope with their opponents' propensity to push forward.
"We have to be organized throughout the back," Alston said. "They have some really crafty players -- players who can just create things out of nothing. So we just have to be aware of that at all times and just know where they are on the field."

DataMotion Officially Joins DirectTrust To Help Make Healthcare Information Exchange Succeed
MORRISTOWN, N.J., April 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- DataMotion ( www.datamotion.com), a health information service provider (HISP) offering secure data delivery services, today announced it has officially joined DirectTrust, an independent non-profit trade association created by and for participants in the Direct secure messaging community.

Kibbe, MD, president and CEO of DirectTrust. "DataMotion is a valued member whose technology is facilitating health information exchange via use of the Direct standard. They recognize the value of collaboration with other vendors to ensure compliance with uniform, consensus-based, trustworthy exchange policies and practices."

Critical Read
What: "Balancing the Cyber Big Data Equation," by MeriTalk, underwritten by Northrop Grumman.
Why: The study captures insights from 18 federal IT experts in big data and cybersecurity, with a focus on how technologies in those spaces are beginning to converge. The report presents a snapshot of where most of the federal government is today in using big data to enhance cyber missions, how they balance access to the growing amount of information they create and store with the risk to that information, and what the future holds for these interwoven disciplines as technologies and policies evolve.
Agencies agreed there is "tremendous value" in data the government collects, but note that agencies "lack both infrastructure and policy to enable correlation, dissemination and protection." In short, the data is there – and will continue to grow – but policies will have to change at the federal level before that data is used in anything close to the most efficient way.
Much-discussed topics in the report include predictive analytics, continuous monitoring and risk management of existing and future datasets.
Verbatim: "One of the biggest questions is how to evolve the risk management model. What is secure enough and agile enough to support the mission? Security, agility, and transparency decisions are driven by mission priorities," said Major Linus J. Barloon II, Chief, J3 Cyber Operations Division at White House Communications Agency.
"We're only beginning to scratch the surface in terms of using analytics to provide cybersecurity and mission insight," said Vern Boyle, director of technology and engineering for Northrop Grumman's Cyber Solutions Division. "There is an opportunity to use predictive analytics to get out in front of threats and eliminate problems before they happen. We also have a significant opportunity to advance the state of the art in the platforms that collect and process the big data itself. Enhancing our ability to analyze data in motion can provider faster insight and reduce the overall footprint/cost of big data solutions."

RatingThese gloves are very comfortable, fit great and slip on and off very easily. Still too soon to tell about durability. I'm lucky if I can get 4 months out of a pair of gloves before they start leaking. I bought these hoping that they would last longer because they are dipped. At least I can slap some neoprene cement on them if they do, unlike nylon gloves.(Posted on 7/15/2015) 2015-07-15

GENEVA — It became apparent quite quickly that scoring was not going to be easy as sheets of rain doused Geneva High School's Loman Field throughout the Panthers regular season Finger Lakes East finale with Newark Saturday.
Mud puddles quickly multiplied throughout the contest, not only turning the Reds pearly white jersey's a shallow brown but increasingly deteriorating ball possession and footing.
However, it was an early Desmond Reese burst before conditions worsened that ultimately earned Geneva a share of their first league title since 2007.
Reese charged up the middle for an 85-yard touchdown dash 2:07 into the rain-drenched battle. The early score would stand up in the Panthers 7-6 triumph.
Geneva (6-1), who has won four straight contests, claimed a share of the league crown with Wayne. The Panthers last division title came in 2007 when they won the Finger Lakes Central I.
"You take the season step by step in goals and your first goal is obviously a league championship and I told the kids they can never take that away," Geneva coach Mike Pane said.
Reese carried the rain-soaked pigskin 20 times for 190 yards and his long TD scamper. Geneva finished with 273 total yards, 258 on the wet ground.
"Once we saw the forecast all week long, we figured we had to get some two-back stuff ready and we do have that set but we really emphasized it the last couple days of practice knowing that we were probably going to have to go to it," Pane remarked.
"We got some very capable running backs and I think we showed that tonight. We just told the kids that we're going to get out on that field and however bad it is, it's going to be something we have to go to and we have to do it. We adjusted to it and we were fortunate enough to have kids that were capable of making adjustments like that."
Fellow Geneva tailbacks James Truley and Kyle Cosentino combined for 60 rushing yards.
Newark (5-2) managed a 68-yard fourth quarter drive through the treacherous surface to nearly tie the game.
The Reds relied on QB Phil Tack and running back Nelson Betances to carry the load during the important series.
Betances delivered 36 of his 83 rushing yards on the drive, including a 25-yard run. Tack recorded 16 yards on the ground, capped by a one-yard TD plunge on fourth and goal. Tack ended with 32 rushing yards and Newark accumulated 140 total.
With 5:42 remaining, Newark coach Mike McGavisk was faced with a tough decision on whether to attempt an extra point in the muddy conditions or test the Panthers defense and go for a two-point conversion and the lead.
The Reds decided to kick the extra-point that missed.
"We have a kicker, we have a lot of confidence in Jake (Shear) and certainly the weather conditions weren't great but we kept bringing in dry balls and Geneva kicked one earlier in the game and they were successful," McGavisk commented.
"I've been in those situations as a coach before and I just told the team that I've kicked myself when we have a kicker and we go for two and come up short and say, 'Jeez, why didn't I kick it and go to overtime. We work on that and it was just a muddy situation and it was a high snap that we got down, it just didn't go."
Newark forced a three and out on the Panthers next possession but was called for a roughing the kicker penalty on Geneva's punt that extended the drive and ultimately ended the game.
"They scored a touchdown, we scored a touchdown and I thought it was a hard fought game that could have gone either way," McGavisk noted.
"The game is never about one play. We win as a team and we lose as a team. It was a hard fought game, there is nothing to be ashamed of. I'm proud of their efforts, we just came up short."
The weather played a factor from the outset of the game when each team committed a turnover on back-to-back plays in the first quarter.
The Panthers' fumble was the first of five fumbles lost. The Reds were intercepted, the first of two. Newark also fumbled once.
Reese capitalized on the Reds turnover by taking the very next snap to the end zone for the eventual game-winning score.
"Desmond just played a terrific game," Pane said. "He had a lot of big runs and he made some tremendous cuts on this field. I couldn't even walk on it after the game and he made some cuts that were unbelievable.
"We kind of emphasized that whoever scores early is going to have an advantage in this game. To their credit, they came down and scored late but getting that first score was so important and him being able to take it like that was huge for us."

Charlie Sexton's 'Cruel and Gentle Things'
Set List
Songs Charlie Sexton plays for 'World Cafe':
- "Do the Same For You"
- "Dillingham Lane"
- "Sunday Clothes"
Renowned Texas musician Charlie Sexton has been hailed for his amazing guitar talent since his youth. His newest album, Cruel and Gentle Things, combines autobiographical experiences and impressionistic imagery.
Recognized for his powerful guitar playing at an early age, Sexton joined the Austin-based Joe Ely band when he was just 13. By 1985, at age 16, Sexton was releasing his own material. Since then, he's mixed solo projects with studio and tour work — including plenty of time spent with Bob Dylan.
On Cruel and Gentle Things, Sexton brings a unique blend of blues and rock to the music, his first release in years. Now 37, Sexton's maturity as an artist has helped him create a personal snapshot, mixing the highs and lows of life into songs like "Burn" and "Just Like Love."

CNN/WMUR poll: Socialist Bernie Sander Leads Hillary Clinton 46% to 30% in New Hampshire
According to a recent CNN/WMUR poll, self-proclaimed Socialist Bernie Sanders leads Hillary Clinton 46% to 30% in the Granite state. SANDERS HAS A 16 PERCENTAGE POINT LEAD, ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I know it is early, but WOW!!! Clinton's poll numbers continue to tank amid her email/private server scandal. As the PJ Tatler opines, Hillary Clinton is not even winning woman in New Hampshire. I would appear that the Hillary Clinton is not a sure bet to be the Democrat nominee and its only a matter of time before Joe Biden announced his presidential run so that the Donkey party does not have a 74 year old socialist representing them in a general presidential election in 2016.
Full poll results can be seen HERE.
Sanders has the backing of nearly half of those who say they plan to vote in the first-in-the-nation Democratic primary next year — 46% support him — while just 30% say they back Clinton. Another 14% say they would support Biden, 2% former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, 1% former Virginia Sen. Jim Webb, and less than half of 1% back former Rhode Island Gov. Lincoln Chafee or Harvard professor Lawrence Lessig.
Clinton trails Sanders across most demographic groups, with broad gender and ideology divides bolstering Sanders' run. He holds 56% of male Democratic voters compared with just 20% who back her, while the two are much closer among women, 39% back Sanders, 37% Clinton. Likewise, Sanders holds a 56% to 30% lead among liberals, versus a 37% to 31% race among moderates.

Socialist Bernie Sanders Leads Hillary Clinton by 11 in New Hampshire, by 9 with Biden in Race
According to the most recent NBC News/Marist poll, self-proclaimed Socialist Bernie Sanders has a 11 point lead over Hillary Clinton. That is not a typo folks, a socialist now is the front runner in the Granite state for the Democrat nominee for president. Just two months ago Hillary was up by double digits over Sanders. The more and more Clinton pours money in politics ads into NH, the more she sinks. Just how embarrassing will it be for the Democrat party, if a socialist is their nominee?
Bernie Sanders has jumped out to a nine-point lead over front-runner Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire, and he's gained ground on her among Iowa voters in the Democratic presidential race, according to a pair of brand-new NBC News/Marist polls.
In New Hampshire, the Vermont senator gets the support of 41 percent of Democratic voters, Clinton gets 32 percent and Vice President Joe Biden gets 16 percent. No other Democratic candidate receives more than 1 percent.

Iowa Poll: Hillary Clinton Leads Socialist Bernie Sanders in Iowa 37% to 30%
Doesn't this speak volumes of the Democrat party. According to a new Des Moines Register/Bloomberg Politics Iowa Poll, self-proclaimed socialist Bernie Sanders has narrowed the gap on Hillary Clinton in polling for the Democratic presidential nominee, 37% to 30%. The Vermont Senator now only trails Hillary by 7. How is this possible? Just how damaged a candidate is Hillary Clinton, or has the Democrat party finally jumped the shark and truly has become nothing more than a Socialist party? And of course what does it say about the Democrat party in general when we have an open election for the next president of the United States and all the Donkeys can provide as candidates is a liar, a socialist, two unknowns that no one cares about and crazy VP who has not declared whether he is in or out.
Liberal revolutionary Bernie Sanders, riding an updraft of insurgent passion in Iowa, has closed to within 7 points of Hillary Clinton in the Democratic presidential race.
She's the first choice of 37 percent of likely Democratic caucusgoers; he's the pick for 30 percent, according to a new Des Moines Register/Bloomberg Politics Iowa Poll.
But Clinton has lost a third of her supporters since May, a trajectory that if sustained puts her at risk of losing again in Iowa, the initial crucible in the presidential nominating contest.

Fox News Poll: Socialist Bernie Sanders Gains on Hillary Clinton But Trails by Wide Margin
In the most recent FOX News poll, self-proclaimed socialist Bernie Sanders has gained some ground on the presumptive Democrat nominee and ethically challenged Hillary Clinton, 49% to 30%. Although still trailing by a great deal, Sanders has shaved the lead by 10 percentage points as Sanders trailed by 29 in the Jul-2 Aug 15 poll, 51% to 22%. If Hillary Clinton's struggles continue where the voters believe her to be a liar, it would be long before the socialist Sanders takes the lead in this poll as well. Sanders recently lead a Boston Herald/FPU poll by 7%. Vice President Joe Biden is in third with 10%; however, that may change greatly in the near future if he decides to enter the presidential race as Hillary's email and ethical challenges continue.
EXIT QUESTION: Will support for Hillary Clinton continue to wane and will Joe Biden enter the race?

Franklin Pierce Poll: Socialist Bernie Sanders Surges Ahead of Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire, 44% to 37%
Just how bad of a presidential candidate is Hillary Clinton for the Democrats? It has finally happened, the most recent Franklin Pierce poll shows that self-proclaimed socialist Bernie Sanders now leads Hillary Clinton by 7 percentage points, 44% to 37%. ARE YOU KIDDING? Hillary Clinton is considered by all as the presumptive Democrat nominee to run for president in 2016, but yet she finds herself behind in a poll to a socialist. Is it Hillary's lack of trustworthiness not much of an issue? However, since when have Democrats cared about their presidents or candidates telling the truth, aka you can keep your doctors, if you like your doctor promise of Obamacare. Or has this email/private server scandal just pushed people from holding their nose when it comes to Clinton, to abandoning her? What would happen if Hillary Clinton actually had a viable competitor in the primaries, rather than a socialist like Sanders? Then again, no one can tell the difference anymore between the Socialist and Democrat parties these days.
Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders has rocketed past longtime front-runner Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire, a stunning turn in a race once considered a lock for the former secretary of state, a new Franklin Pierce University/Boston Herald poll shows.
Sanders leads Clinton 44-37 percent among likely Democratic primary voters, the first time the heavily favored Clinton has trailed in the 2016 primary campaign, according to the poll of 442 Granite-Staters.
Vice President Joe Biden got 9 percent support in the test primary match-up. The other announced Democrats in the race, former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, former Rhode Island Gov. Lincoln Chafee and former Virginia Gov. Jim Webb, barely register at 1 percent or below.
The live interview phone poll was conducted Aug. 7-10 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 4.7 percentage points.
Clinton is still viewed overwhelmingly by voters as the likely Democratic nominee, but the results suggest she faces an unexpectedly difficult fight to prevent an embarrassing opening loss in the first-in-the-nation primary.

Socialist Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders To Announce 2016 Presidential Run
Vermont's self-proclaimed socialist Senator is supposed to announce his candidacy for the 2016 presidential election. I can say that I do not agree with one position or policy of Sanders but I do respect him because as far-LEFT and socialist as he is, he actually believes what he says, as misguided as it is. For that I say, run Bernie, run!!! We speculated a month back when Bernie Sanders hinted that he would run in 2016, that he might just be Hillary Clinton's worst nightmare. Although Sanders is an Independent in the Senate, he would be running in the Democrat primary. Sanders would force Hillary to the far, far LEFT. The Democrat party has moved much farther to the LEFT from the days of Bill Clinton's presidency. Does Bernie have a real chance of winning the Democrat nomination, probably not. However, this socialist who is going to run on income inequality has strongly criticized Clinton for having a "soft" attitude towards Wall Street. Sanders could be a major thorn in the side of Hillary Clinton as his socialist views are loved by the liberal base.
The Independent Socialist Senator said he "liked Hilliary" and she is a "very, very intelligent person". However, Sanders said there needs to be a leader "to wage a political revolution in this country which brings millions of people into the political process to stand up and fighting for their rights in a way that we have not seen right now," and Hillary Clinton was not the leader of that movement.
VPR News has learned from several sources that Independent U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders will announce his candidacy for the Democratic presidential nomination on Thursday.
Sanders will release a short statement on that day and then hold a major campaign kickoff in Vermont in several weeks.
Sanders' entry into the Democratic race ensures that Hillary Clinton will face a challenge to win the support of the liberal wing of the party.
Sanders' basic message will be that the middle class in America has been decimated in the past two decades while wealthy people and corporations have flourished.
His opposition to a proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal (T.P.P.) shows how he plans to frame this key issue of his campaign.
In the Real Clear Politics Poll for the 2016 Democratic Presidential Nomination has Bernie Sanders in a distant 4th place at 5.6%, some 56.6% behind Hillary Clinton; however, ahead of O'Malley, who the media claims to be a challenger to Hillary.

Conservative Radio Host Mark Levin on Giuliani's Comments: Rudy's Exactly Right …Obama Has Contempt for This Country
Author, attorney and Conservative radio talk show host Mark Levin appeared with Sean Hannity last week and said the following regarding Rudy Giuliani's comments that Obama does not love America. Levin called out Obama and his so-called love of country comparing fundamentally trying to transform America to trying to fundamentally transform your wife or girlfriend. Levin went on to say that Obama was the most preposterous and absurd president ever. And what Obama is doing and is not doing as president, will be left to his successor. Levin even went on to say that Obama was no friend of Muslims who are being slaughtered all over the world. Levin completed his commentary on Obama saying that "Obama is a religious and historical illiterate. I think he really does have contempt for this country. He contempt for our military and Rudy is exactly right".
"Well Rudy is exactly right. When somebody says they want to fundamentally transform America (VIDEO), well then you must not love America. It's like saying I am going to fundamentally transform my wife or my girlfriend. That means you must not love your wife or girlfriend. And Obama has shown no indication that he loves the Constitution. He never talks about capitalism, he's always bringing up the past, picking at scabs. Even now, he's a pasty for Islamic terrorism. Half of his speeches are about how terrible America is and America should not react in a negative way.
I want to remind this president, he likes to bring up Jesus in a certain context, and I say this as a Jew. There are an awful lot of Christians in America and in Europe who has died, who have been maimed, who have been harmed trying to defend innocent, peace loving Muslims in the Middle East and Afghanistan. It would be nice every now and then if he would acknowledge that.

Hillary Clinton Tries to Spin Her Way Out of her Far Left, Anti-Business Comments
Sorry Team Hillary … One does not misspeak when they opening say and believe, "Don't let anybody tell you it's corporations and businesses create jobs."
Team Hillary Clinton and her spin doctors were in full backtracking mode on Monday following Hillary's comment last Friday while stumping for Democrat Massachusetts gubnitorial candidate Martha Coakley in Boston, MA … "Don't let anybody tell you it's corporations and businesses create jobs." Her aids try to say that she'd misspoken and hadn't intended to deliver a fresh economic policy message. HUH? Hillary Clinton said what she said against businesses and it was pretty clear what she said and what she intended. There was no talk of tax breaks or this Monday morning quarterbacking that Team Hillary is trying to do. As opined at The Daily Caller, "I Didn't Mean What I Very Clearly Said, Again." Do we really need another president who cant be trusted in what they say?
Who are you going to believe, Hillary or your lying eyes and ears?
Hillary Clinton on Monday mopped up her botched statement from a rally in Massachusetts last week, making it clear she'd misspoken and hadn't intended to deliver a fresh economic policy message.
Clinton's cleanup came as she campaigned with Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney in Somers, about 90 minutes north of New York City, after two days in which Republicans bandied the likely White House candidate's Friday comment, made in the context of talking about trickle-down economics, on social media and the single sentence began gaining traction.
A Clinton aide later said the former secretary of state had meant to talk about tax breaks for corporations and businesses in that sentence, which led into a line about how trickle-down economics had "failed spectacularly" — a sentiment she has long held. The overall context was clear that she had left words out of a sentence; the comment made little sense without it.
But some Democrats who back Clinton said privately she appeared to be trying too hard to capture the Warren rhetoric and adjust to the modern economic progressive language — much in the way President Barack Obama did during a campaign rally in 2012, when, discussing businesses' relationships to the infrastructure of cities, he said, "You didn't build that."
But in the end, WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE, the MSM will protect and carry the water for Hillary, if she decided to run for president, no different than they did for Barack Obama.

Hillary Clinton: "Don't Let Anybody Tell You It's Corporations and Businesses That Create Jobs" as She Stumps for Martha Coakley for Mass Governor
(Bumped for importance)
At an event Friday in Boston, Mass stumping for Democrat gubernatorial candidate Martha Coakley, Hillary Clinton told the crowd gathered at the Park Plaza Hotel rally … "Don't let anybody tell you it's corporations and businesses create jobs." Okay Hillary, then who does create jobs, the government? Seriously Hillary, since you brought the subject up, who does create jobs if it is not corporations and businesses? Wake up America, Hillary Clinton is a socialist just like Barack Obama. Can the United States survive another liberal, socialist, Democrat president who despises business?
"Don't let anybody tell you it's corporations and businesses create jobs," Clinton said.
"You know that old theory, 'trickle-down economics,'" she continued. "That has been tried, that has failed. It has failed rather spectacularly."
The real story might be is that Hillary Clinton needed to come to the blue, blue state of Massachusetts in the first place. Currently according to RCP, Democrat and uber-lib Martha Coakley trails in the polls to Republican candidate Charlie Baker by 4.5%. However, a very recent Boston Globe poll has Baker up by 9 points over Coakley.
UPDATE I: Hey Hillary … You might want to listen to Ronald Reagan talk about business and jobs, maybe you will learn something.
Well, wouldn't it be nice to hear a little more about the forgotten heroes of America — those who create most of our new jobs, like the owners of stores down the street; the faithfuls who support our churches, synagogues, schools, and communities; the brave men and women everywhere who produce our goods, feed a hungry world, and keep our families warm while they invest in the future to build a better America? That's where miracles are made, not in Washington, D.C.

Will Socialist Senator from VT Bernie Sanders Run for President in 2016 … He Could Be Hillary Clinton's Worst Nighmare
Will socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders of the People's Republic of Vermont run for president in 2016? Sanders proudly embraces the moniker as a a Democratic socialist. Why shouldn't he, the man is a socialist. One might as embrace what they are. He states in his interview that he describes his credo as a fight to protect America's working class from what he sees as the threat of an approaching "oligarchic form of society." In other words, capitalism is evil. Maybe this is exactly what the Democrat Presidential primary needs, an individual who actually reflects what the party has become, socialist. If Sanders puts his socialism where his mouth is, it could represent Hillary Clinton's, the anointed one, worst nightmare. Many have been looking for Elizabeth Warren to run in 2016, some one that would run left of Hillary. Bernie Sanders certainly fills the bill.
This should be interesting. The reality is that Bernie Sanders more represents what the Democrat party has become these days.
Though Sanders isn't making any secret of his possible 2016 presidential bid, he said he's still determining whether he could generate a sufficient level of grassroots support on which to build a campaign.
"Look, it's easy for me to give a good speech, and I give good speeches," he said. "It is harder to put together a grassroots organization of hundreds of thousands of millions of people prepared to work hard and take on the enormous amounts of money that will be thrown against us."
One of Sanders' most likely competitors, should he choose to seek the Democratic nomination, is Hillary Clinton. And while Sanders praised Clinton for a successful career, he was critical of the Democratic Party's seeming coronation of the former secretary of state.
"She has accomplished a lot of very positive things in her career, but I'm not quite sure that the political process is one in which we anoint people," Sanders said.
Though he stopped short of criticizing Clinton directly, he said she is not a sufficient champion of his message for the middle class.

Looking for Kernel guru
Hi there,
I'm not quite a Linux newbie anymore but I still have a ways to go before I'm really good(a sysadmin). I watch the kernel.org site from time to time and see new kernels come out but never tried to install any until now. I got a Pavillion dv6000 laptop with the Atheros wireless set up that didn't work with RHEL 5. After a bit of digging I found that the latest kernel versions would support Atheros, so now I've installed a new kernel and the wireless works(happy days are here again), but now I broke some of the other hardware. I have tried various re-configurations of the kernel but have either made things worse or come up with non-bootable system. There a lot of config options with the kernel but I've not figured which ones to include to get a fully functioning system. If there's a kernel guru with some time to spare I could really use some pointer on how to debug the problems I caused.

Rated 1 out of 5Â by Toby NOT JUNGLE GARDENIA As a seasoned perfume buyer, I am very disappointed in this product. It does not at all have the essence of gardenia or the profile of Jungle Gardenia. At best it smells like soap. March 23, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Mbelsh Lost Scent Found Again! I bought my first Jungle Gardenia when I was in college. I think I purchased it during my only trip to New York City. I then found it in my home town pharmacy and continued to wear it for several years. In the phase-out of the mom and pop style pharmacy to the bigger chain type stores, I lost my beloved Jungle Gardenia. With the new technology and search engines I started looking for it again after 25 years without! No luck in seeing anything online that resembled my special scent! Then I received your spring catalog and almost skipped over the perfume section! Then that little black box caught my eye, and there it was! I think I gave a hoot and did a little dance! Ordered it right away! We are united again and I wear it every day! March 12, 2015

Dojo's Industrial-Strength Grid Widget
Listing 1. ItemFileWriteStore Example
Although the example in Listing 1 illustrates providing inline JavaScript data for the store to consume, the same data could just as easily have been provided by way of an I/O request to the server. For example, the store could have taken a URL parameter on construction, which would have fetched a file. Assuming its contents were the same JavaScript object identified by the data property in the previous example, the results would have been the same:
/* Another way to create a store */ var store = new dojo.data.ItemFileReadStore({ url : "/some/server/side/url" });
For more information on the dojo.data API, consult Chapter 9 of Dojo: The Definitive Guide, on-line documentation available at the Dojo Campus, or read the API well-documented specs that are packaged in the Dojo source code itself in the dojo.data.api namespace.
With newly found knowledge of how to create and manipulate data stores, we're now ready to bind one of those stores to the grid widget. Listing 2 is a full-blown example of programmatically creating a simple DataGrid and attaching an ItemFileReadStore.
Listing 2. Simple Data Grid
Additions to Listing 2 include adding some CSS files to style the grid and a few extra lines of script to specify column information. The final call to startup() is a fairly standard Dijit life-cycle method that needs to be called to tell widgets to lay themselves out when they are constructed programmatically.
Now, let's turn to creating a grid widget in markup. As you're about to see, creating a grid in markup is as simple as defining an HTML table structure (Listing 3).

Shrimp and Pasta Primavera
Total Time
Prep 15 mins
Cook 15 mins
This came from the first onslaught of zucchini from my garden, coupled with a handful of this-n-that from the fridge. A very forgiving recipe - more of a technique to me - as the ingredients can be interchanged to suit tastes and fridge contents.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 4 cups assorted fresh vegetables, chopped coarsely (I used zucchini, broccoli, red onion and yellow peppers)
- 8 ounces shrimp, frozen cooked peeled and deveined (I used a lot less!)
- 1⁄2 lemon, juice of
- black pepper, to taste
- salt, to taste
- 4 ounces parmesan cheese (shredded or shaved)
- 8 ounces cooked pasta (I used vermicelli)
- Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and keep warm.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and garlic. (the olive oil keeps the butter from scorching).
- Saute garlic for about 1 minute.
- Add vegetables and saute until just crisp-tender.
- Add shrimp and saute until just heated through.
- Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Squeeze juice of half a lemon over all. Continue to cook about 2 minutes until juices have been reduced by about half.
- Remove from heat.
- Toss vegetables and shrimp with pasta. Serve topped with parmesan cheese and additional salt and pepper if desired.

This was a veggie dish I could really feel good about! I used a combination of bell pepper, carrots, onion, spinach, and artichoke hearts. I omitted the shrimp but served the pasta with broiled tilapia. I also subbed gluten free pasta with excellent results. The garlic and lemon were delish, but next time I think I'll shake a little Italian seasoning and maybe some red pepper flakes for some extra oomph. Thank you for posting!
This is a great pasta dish, and will certainly be very versatile re ingredients, tho I went with the original recipe this time! Colourful, fresh and full of flavour, I enjoyed the addition of lemon juice which added some zest! (Excuse the pun :)) Quick to make, ideal for mid-week suppers, I'll certainly be making this again. Thanks for sharing! Made for PAC Spring 2008
Fantastic! I have been looking online for hours tonight for a Shrimp Pasta Primavera recipe. This one will be perfect for dinner tomorrow night. I like the fact that this recipe calls for "assorted" fresh veggies. I like to experiment so this will be perfect. Thank you.

Did you know that it's a crime in the U.S. to knowingly be in the presence of the President under false pretenses?
In fact it's illegal to do what was done, hence the fine.
Also, and why does no one point this out...
When a man (or in the future, woman or robot) becomes President, they're numbers are "obfuscated" so that no one can easily steal their identity, for National security reasons.
So, yes, the numbers don't match. Duh. Of course they don't. Old records have been hidden as well. The same is true of all Presidents since Kennedy. Because... People can be evil.
It's illegal to use any information to try and subvert National security folks. I know, it's a silly and overused rule, but it's a real one.
That people don't instantly understand this is hard to fathom...

"Malacca Stopover" Melaka by mizzzthanggg
Melaka Travel Guide: 1,836 reviews and 4,837 photos
we made a short stopover to have lunch in malacca on our way back from pulau tioman. this is the jonker street area in malacca, where they retain the original (though brightened up) facades of shophouses from way back then. more photos in my malacca travelogue.
as this was just a rest stop to take a rickshaw ride to jonkers street for lunch, all photos here show only the section of town with chinese influences from the 'baba nonya' ethnic group. malacca also has very strong portugese and dutch colonial influences in architecture in other parts not evident in my pages.
Reviews (3)
Antique shops abound in Malacca, and while you can find some really great bargains, and the genuine stuff, be warned... more travel advice
Just hop onto a trishaw from the center of town where the Stadthuys Building is, and ask them to drop you off at Jonkers... more travel advice
Ok... no I didn't stay here. But as soon as I do, I'll revise this tip how's that? The website looks pretty good, so... more travel advice

Software updates and TUF
The Root Key
As mentioned previously, the root key or keys must be well protected, because these are the keys you use to sign the other keys, which are then used to sign the software, update information, and so on. Because you only need to use the root keys to sign other keys, it is relatively simple to keep them on an offline system. For example, you could use a cheap netbook with WiFi/Ethernet disabled, and move keys to and from it using a USB stick. If you want even more security, you can use a hardware module to contain the key. These tend to be quite expensive, but because TUF uses GPG, you can use an OpenGPG cryptocard [6], which you can generally order online for less than US$ 20 and which supports 4,096-bit RSA keys.
The Targets Role
The targets role is essentially used to sign the files that are being offered for download. The targets role can be automated; for example, you can set up a server to sign uploaded files automatically. This, of course, should be done on a secured, dedicated server; you shouldn't also use it to offer the files for download, for example. However, if you use different keys for metadata signing, then a compromise of the target role key can't exactly be used to push updates. The attacker will be able to sign the files but not modify the metadata telling the client to install them.
The Delegated Targets Role
The delegated target role is optional; basically, instead of using a single role to sign files, you can delegate it. For example, you may have a main application with user-contributed plugins, and the signing of these plugins could be delegated to other target roles. This approach allows multiple organizations to participate in an update system securely. You can sign the third-party key, and they can then use it to sign their files and send them to the update system.

The outstanding high school tennis careers of New Richmond seniors Sami Kleiner and Lauren Kvam ended with one of their finest efforts. In last Wednesday's WIAA Division 1 sectional meet in Marshfield, Kvam and Kleiner faced one of the top teams in the state. The Tiger girls, who were seeded fourth out of their subsectional, gave the top-ranked duo from Rhinelander a gutty battle, before losing 6-4, 6-4 in the sectional meet. Tiger coach Teresa Kvam was hoping that her top doubles team would get selected as an extra qualifier for the state tournament.
St. Croix Central will be the site for the WIAA Division 3 regional volleyball final. It is the intent of the Central girls to be playing in that regional championship match. The Panthers think reaching the regional final is attainable after they were awarded the third seed in the WIAA regional tournament bracket. The WIAA tournaments start next Tuesday, when the Panthers will host Spring Valley at 7 p.m. Spring Valley drew the sixth seed in the regional bracket. The Panthers end their regular season this Thursday with a match at Spring Valley.
Watch D.O.G.S. will be volunteering to help at Somerset High School activities this school year. Watch D.O.G.S. is a national organization that has been growing rapidly in popularity. D.O.G.S. stands for Dads Of Great Students, but the volunteer organization is open to anyone of either gender. The idea to begin the Watch D.O.G.S. in Somerset came from district resident Jerry Sullivan. The Watch D.O.G.S. idea was introduced a few years ago and has quickly spread to 1,100 schools in 35 states.
The New Richmond varsity volleyball team completed the first perfect conference season in team history by sweeping three games at Osceola on Tuesday night. The Tigers finish the Middle Border Conference season with a 7-0 record. They will play in the Middle Border Conference tournament at Baldwin-Woodville High School on Saturday, starting at 10 a.m. This is the first undisputed conference championship won by the Tigers. It is the fourth conference title in team history.
It wasn't trauma, but more like a long, agonizing torture. "Traumatize the Tigers" was Somerset's 2009 Homecoming theme and the Spartan football team carried the theme through Friday's game, beating New Richmond 40-12. The win locks up a place in the WIAA football playoffs for the Spartans. Somerset is now 4-0 in Middle Border Conference play. The loss leaves New Richmond at 2-2 in the MBC. The Tigers must win two of their final three games to earn a berth in the 2009 WIAA playoffs. The Spartans didn't do anything fancy to win Friday's game.
With the Middle Border Conference lead at stake, the New Richmond volleyball team played like a championship team. The Tigers went into Somerset and won a showdown between the final two unbeaten MBC teams last Tuesday. Somerset won the opening game 25-22. The Tigers then won three straight games, by scores of 25-22, 25-18 and 25-23. The first two games were almost mirror images of each other. In the first game the Tigers were on fire at the start, building up an 11-1 lead.
Rarely has one school dominated the Middle Border Conference girls tennis tournament the way the New Richmond girls did at the 2009 MBC meet in Durand last Tuesday. The Tigers won six of the seven flight championships and garnered second place in the other flight in the 2009 meet. That earned the Tigers 40 of a possible 42 points in the MBC meet. In all three of the doubles flights, the Tigers earned conference championships.
The New Richmond girls golf players went into the WIAA Division 1 regional meet knowing they needed to be one of the top four teams in the meet to qualify for sectionals. The Tigers were seeded fourth, but by only percentage points. Playing on their home course made a huge difference as the Tigers took second place in last Wednesday's regional tournament. Hudson rolled to the regional meet championship, shooting a 371 team score. New Richmond took second place, finishing at 388. River Falls was one stroke behind New Richmond in third place.
Somerset's Shanise McMahon and St. Croix Central's Tia Perry each reached a milestone to cap their golf season. Both girls qualified for the WIAA Division 2 Amery sectional meet with their play in last Wednesday's Pheasant Hills WIAA Division 2 regional meet. McMahon and Perry qualified as individuals for the sectional golf meet.
The Somerset volleyball team suffered its first loss in Middle Border Conference play in 2009 in a battle for the MBC lead against New Richmond last Tuesday. Somerset overcame a large early deficit to win the first game in Tuesday's match 25-22. The Spartans then jumped out to a 9-2 lead in the second game, but it would be the last hurrah for the Spartans. New Richmond charged back to win the second game 25-22. The Spartans didn't have much fight in them in the third game, with New Richmond winning 25-18. The fourth game was the most balanced from beginning to end.

On the heels of the recently announced "Songs for Sudan" downloadable benefit album, Waxploitation Records is eyeing a late November release for another collection to benefit the war-town African coun
On the heels of the recently announced "Songs for Sudan [1]" downloadable benefit album, Waxploitation Records is eyeing a late November release for another collection to benefit the war-town African country. "Genocide in Sudan" will boast previously unreleased or rare tracks from Tom Morello's Nightwatchman project, Yoko Ono, the Pretenders, Angelique Kidjo and Thievery Corporation.
Further contributors include Mark Farina, Rise Against, DJ Spooky with Lee "Scratch" Perry, Toots and the Maytals with Bunny Wailer, Kinky, Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra and a Danger Mouse/Murs collaboration. Tortoise, System Of A Down, Bad Religion, Jurassic 5, Gorillaz, Jill Scott and the X-ecutioners have donated previously released tracks.
All proceeds from the album will be donated to the United Nations Refuge Agency and UNICEF.
"We're trying to address two things with this CD," says Waxploitation CEO/album producer Jeff Antebi. "The first is to get the United Nations to declare the ongoing atrocities a genocide, so that real action can take effect to stop what is obviously an 'ethnic cleansing' taking place, in violation of the 1948 Geneva Convention. The second is to raise money for the dire relief situation affecting over 1 million innocent civilians who might die from starvation and disease if aid does not reach them right now."
Conflict began raging in Western Sudan in February 2003, after two rebel factions took up arms to protest alleged discrimination by the government in Khartoum. The United Nations estimates 50,000 deaths have resulted, while more than one million people have fled their homes for fear of attack.
Here is the tracklist for "Genocide in Sudan":
"NUGUNS," System Of A Down
"Truth and Rights," Thievery Corporation featuring Sleepywonder
"Five Rooms," Kinky
"Live Again (The Fall of Man)," Bad Religion
"High Fidelity," Jurassic 5
"Tomorrow Comes Today," Gorillaz
"Shiranakatta (I Didn't Know) [Craig Armstrong remix]," Yoko Ono
"Ruby," Tweaker featuring Will Oldham
"Complex Person (Novel & Jones remix)," the Pretenders
"Don't Believe The Hype '04," X-ecutioners
"R.O.C.," Antibalas Afrobeat Orchestra
"Paint by Numbers," Danger Mouse and Murs
"Try," Jill Scott
"Conga Habanera (Jez Colin remix)," Angelique Kidjo
"Five Too Many," Tortoise
"Movin' Left," Mark Farina
"Arkhangelsk," Teargas & Plateglass
"Take a Trip," Toots and the Maytals featuring Bunny Wailer
"State of the Union," Rise Against
"Dubtometry (Alter Echo remix)," DJ Spooky featuring Lee "Scratch" Perry

Hollywood Crush: "Straightjacket" is a pretty screen-ready romance. Can you sum up your book in three sentences, movie tagline-style, beginning with "Boy meets girl"?
Meredith Towbin: Boy meets girl. Girl isn't sure if boy (who says he's an angel) is crazy because, well, they meet in a psych ward. Girl doesn't care and runs away with boy to live happily ever after…until something goes terribly, terribly wrong. Duh duh DUUUHH!
Your book involves asylums and art and angels. Any experience with one of these things (or all three)?
Weirdly enough, not really. I've never been in an asylum, although I have read "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and was thoroughly freaked out by it. I was briefly obsessed with the movie "Date with an Angel" in the mid-80s, so there's that. And I can appreciate good art. But no, I haven't had any personal experiences with any of them. I guess you don't always write about what you know.
What went into the research for "Straightjacket"?
I did have to do quite a bit of research. I googled my little heart out, looking for everything having to do with psychiatric hospitals and catatonia (a disorder that puts Caleb, one of my main characters, into a stupor in which he doesn't move or talk for hours at a time). I even called a couple of hospitals and asked if I could take a tour of their psych wards. They politely declined.
I went on to email dozens of psychiatrists who were experts in catatonia. After a few months of an empty inbox, I heard back from one doctor who agreed to be interviewed. He let me pick his brain. I learned everything from what he would diagnose Caleb with to what the dining room in a fancy schmancy psychiatric hospital looks like to what it actually feels like to be in a catatonic stupor.
What drew you to writing YA?
I didn't really choose YA. It kind of chose me. I wanted to write this particular story, and the characters popped into my head fully formed as teenagers. I'm drawn to writing about people who don't have much control over their lives, people who feel very deeply and fully a wide range of emotions. To me, teenagers fit that bill perfectly.
What are you reading right now?
I'm almost finished with the fourth book in the "Game of Thrones" series. It's not my usual cup of tea—I'm not real keen on torture and such—but for some reason I got completely hooked. I so want to watch the TV series, but honestly I'm too scared. I guess I can handle reading about beheadings and being mauled by a pack of wolves, but I can't watch it being played out in front of me.
We can't help noticing that tormented emo angels are the new sparkly vampires when it comes to YA fiction. What type of supernatural boyfriend will be the next big trend? (Sea monsters? Werepigeons?)
I really couldn't even guess. Whatever he is, the next supernatural boyfriend will probably be brooding and tortured and seven kinds of messed up. Because really, what cute boy with issues ISN'T the bee's knees?
Indeed! So, is "Straightjacket" on your list of must-reads?

Many semiarid rangelands in the Great Basin, U.S.A., are shifting dominance to woody species as a consequence of land degradation including intense livestock grazing and fire suppression. Whereas past rehabilitation efforts in Big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) steppes removed the shrub and added introduced forage grasses to successfully shift communities from shrublands to grasslands, current consensus is that native species should be included in restoration projects and that retention of some woody plants is desirable. We examined the potential for interseeding grasses into dense shrub communities as a precursor to thinning shrubs and releasing grasses from shrub interference. We compared seedling establishment of the native grass, Bluebunch wheatgrass (Pseudoroegneria spicata), with that of the Eurasia grass, Crested wheatgrass (Agropyron desertorum), in dense Ar. tridentata stands. Shrubs may play an important role as nurse plants for seedling establishment (reduced solar radiation, "island of fertility" effect) but result in highly contrasting light environments and root interference for seedlings. In experimental plots, we examined effects of Ar. tridentata shade levels (0, 40, 70, and 90% reduction of solar radiation) and initial root exclusion (present/absent) on the establishment and growth of P. spicata and Ag. desertorum seedlings. With this design we evaluated the interference effects of Ar. tridentata on the two grasses and identified the most beneficial microsites for grass restoration in Ar. tridentata–dominated communities. We predicted seedling survival and growth to be greater under moderate shade (40% reduction) and limited root competition than under no or strong shade conditions (0 and 90%) and unrestricted root interactions. Fifty to 85% of the P. spicata and Ag. desertorum seedlings survived the dry summer months of 1995 and 1996 and the intervening winter. Neither shading nor root exclusion from Ar. tridentata affected final seedling survival of either species. Seedling biomass of both grass species was negatively affected by initial root interactions with Ar. tridentata. However, the analysis of seedling biomass variability (coefficient of variation) indicated that in all shade and root-exclusion treatments, some seedlings of both species developed to large individuals to survive in Ar. tridentata–dominated rangelands. Thus, the use of interseeding techniques shows promise for restoring herbaceous species in dense Ar. tridentata stands and should be given further consideration when shrub retention is an important consideration.

Southwestern Historical Quarterly
to 1929, Phillips supervised Gilbert H. Barnes's pathbreaking disserta-
tion on the evangelical origins of abolitionism west of New England. The
Anti-Slavery Impulse, 1830 -1844, published in 1934 with Phillips's
assistance, became "one of those rare landmark monographs that change
understanding of a period and stimulate further research" (p. 115), in-
cluding some of Dillon's own work. Another of Phillips's graduate students,
Dwight Lowell Dumond, succeeded his mentor at Michigan and directed
Dillon's own dissertation.
Phillips's pioneering work in southern economic and social history
depended largely on the zeal with which he sought out privately owned
manuscript collections at a time when such archives as the Southern
Historical Collection at Chapel Hill did not yet exist. Because of Phillips's
efforts, one of the largest manuscript collections for the study of planters
and plantations in Virginia-the Massie family papers-found an unlikely
depository in the Barker Texas History Center in Austin. Phillips and
his friend Herbert A. Kellar, after discovering the Massie collection "in
an old mill near Lynchburg" in 1926 (p. 124), purchased it for $275.
The following year Phillips delivered a lecture in Austin, where Professor
Charles W. Ramsdell arranged for him to sell the bulk of the collection
to the University of Texas for $1,600, a profit margin of almost 500 per-
cent. It seems that Phillips was capable of greater entrepreneurial zeal
and skill than he attributed to most antebellum planters.

The Dennis Reinhartz and Stephen E. Maizlish collection of essays
proves that the Walter P. Webb "well" has not completely run dry.
Although the authors prime the pump with material published in previous
biographies of Webb, these essays support the idea of Webb's long-lasting
influence on the history profession. It is noteworthy that his continued
impact stems not only from his professional accomplishments, but also
from the number of people whose lives he touched.
One such individual was George Wolfskill. In a personalized introduc-
tion, this former Webb student provides a character sketch of Webb as
