What are they hiding?: Some Serious Problems with the FBI's Killing of a Witness in Florida
By Dave Lindorff
In the voluminous report issued by Florida State's Attorney Jeff Ashton's Office on the killing in Orlando last May 22 of a witness/suspect under interrogation by the FBI -- an investigation that concluded that the shooting was "justified" -- there is not a single mention of the bruise and contusion on the left side of Todashev's head.
Admiral Dennis Blair: "We Sent Troops to Middle East...Because of Oil-Based Importance of Region"
Cross-Posted from DeSmogBlog
At the just-completed U.S. House Committee on Foreign Affairs hearing titled, "The Geopolitical Potential of the U.S. Energy Boom," Admiral Dennis Blair — former Director of National Intelligence, President and CEO of Institute for Defense Analyses and Commander in Chief of U.S. Pacific Command — admitted what's still considered conspiratorial to some.
Put tersely: the U.S. and allied forces launched the ongoing occupation in Iraq and occupy large swaths of the Middle East to secure the flow of oil to the U.S. and its global allies, explained Blair.
Follow the Money: Three Energy Export Congressional Hearings, Climate Undiscussed
Cross-Posted from DeSmogBlog
In light of ongoing geopolitical tensions in Russia, Ukraine and hotly contested Crimea, three (yes, three!) U.S. Congressional Committees held hearings this week on the U.S. using its newfangled oil and gas bounty as a blunt tool to fend off Russian dominance of the global gas market.

Though 14 combined witnesses testified in front of the U.S. Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, the U.S. House Energy and Commerce Committee's Subcommittee on Energy and Power and U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, not a single environmental voice received an invitation. Climate change and environmental concerns were only voiced by two witnesses.
Using the ongoing regional tumult as a rationale to discuss exports of U.S. oil and gas obtained mainly via hydraulic fracturing ("fracking"), the lack of discussion on climate change doesn't mean the issue isn't important to national security types.
Indeed, the Pentagon's recently published Quadrennial Defense Review coins climate change a "threat force multiplier" that could lead to resource scarcity and resource wars. Though directly related to rampant resource extraction and global oil and gas marketing, with fracking's accompanying climate change and ecological impacts, "threat force multiplication" impacts of climate change went undiscussed.
With another LNG (liquefied natural gas) export terminal approved by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) in Coos Bay, Ore., to non-Free Trade Agreement countries on March 24 (the seventh so far, with two dozen still pending), the heat is on to export U.S. fracked oil and gas to the global market.
So, why wasn't the LNG climate trump card discussed in a loud and clear way? Well, just consider the source: ten of the witnesses had ties in one way or another to the oil and gas industry.
Florida State's Attorney takes a dive on FBI slaying probe Two Law Enforcement Officers, Two Stories of a Witness Killing: Who'
By Dave Lindorff
The Florida State's Attorney for the Orlando region, Jeffrey Ashton, today released his conclusion at the end of a 10-month investigation into the FBI slaying of Ibragim Todashev, a suspected witness in the Boston bombing case, saying that he will not be prosecuting the agent. Ashton ruled that the killing, in which the agent, at the end of a nearly 5-hour May 21 interrogation in Todashev's Orlando apartment, fired seven bullets into Todashev, killing him justifiably, after being attacked.
Did the FBI Snuff a Boston Marathon Bombing Witness? Dark Questions About a Deadly FBI Interrogation in Orlando

Can We Really Blame Sociopaths?
I've been hearing increasingly from multiple quarters that the root of our problems is psychopaths and sociopaths and other loosely defined but definitely different beings from ourselves. Rob Kall has produced a quite interesting series of articles and interviews on the subject.
I want to offer some words of caution if not respectful dissent. I don't think the "because chickenhawks" dissent found, for example, in John Horgan's "The End of War" is sufficient. That is to say, just because a politician doesn't want to do the killing himself or herself doesn't mean the decision to order killing in war, or in prison, or through poverty and lack of healthcare, or through climate change, isn't heartless and calculating. Psychopaths could be running our world from behind desks.
But are they?
When I look at national politicians in the United States -- presidents and Congress members -- I can't identify any meaningful place to draw a line such that sociopaths would be on one side and healthy people on the other. They all bow, to one degree or another, to corrupt influences. They all make bad compromises. There are differences in both policy positions and personal manners, but the differences are slight and spread along a continuum. They all fund the largest killing machine in history. The Progressive Caucus budget proposes slight increases in military spending, already at 57% of the discretionary budget. Some support wars on "humanitarian" and others on genocidal grounds, but the wars look the same from the receiving end either way.
The slightly better Congress members come from slightly better districts, have taken slightly less money, and begin with slightly more enlightened ideologies. Or at least that's true much of the time on many issues. Often, however, what makes the difference is personal experience. Senator Dianne Feinstein supports warrantless spying on everyone else, but objects when it's turned against her. Six years ago, Congressman Mike McNulty said he was voting against war funding because his brother had been killed in Vietnam. Weren't four million people killed there? Didn't many of them have brothers and sisters and other loved ones? Shouldn't we oppose mass murder even if nobody in our immediate family has died from mass murder? In Washington, no one is ashamed to explain their positions by their personal experiences; on the contrary, such rationales are deemed highly admirable -- and not just among a certain group who stand apart as the sociopaths.
The spectrum of morality in our elected officials ranges from those who often indicate their concern and their desire to help if their own careers won't suffer in any way, to those who take tentative stands for peace or justice if their own family is impacted, to those who talk a good line and always act against it, and all the way over to those who don't even put up a pretense. But all of this is within a culture where we routinely discuss the supposed need to "humanize" humans. That is to say, we teach each other that foreigners are made more human when we see their photos and learn their names and stories and the stories of their loved ones in some trivial detail -- as if we are supposed to imagine that people don't have names or quirks or loved ones until we get a specific account of those things.
When it was revealed that a bunch of TV news guest experts on war were actually getting their talking points from the Pentagon, there was no way to watch the videos and distinguish the corrupt pundits from the truly independent ones. They all talked the same. The mercenary fraudsters fit right in. It's the same with any sociopaths in Congress. They may be there, but how could one possibly spot the difference?
Kall raises the question of why people enjoy watching shows about sociopaths such as "House of Cards," and speculates that people admire sociopaths' ability to stay calm in crises, to express confidence, to project charisma, and to dominate and manipulate others. That's probably right. And such shows spread sociopathy by example. But there's also the function such shows serve of explaining (accurately or not) why our government is so bad. There's also the joy of hoping against hope that Vice President Underwood will land in prison where so many of his real-life colleagues belong. But watch the real-life "journalists" playing themselves on fictional TV interviews in these shows. They clearly don't imagine themselves as having any value that can be lost by such charades. Watch the advertisements for which many TV shows are filler, and you'll see politicians routinely describing their opponents as behaving sociopathically.
Some experts believe sociopaths make the best CEOs of large corporations. Everybody else recognizes that the CEOs of large corporations are given incentives to behave immorally, regardless of whether it impacts them emotionally in a typical manner or not. Also encouraged to behave immorally are presidents and Congress members.
Well-designed governments encourage good behavior and bar against the potential for evil. They treat 100% -- not 2% or 10% or 80% -- of elected officials as potential psychopaths. Elections are made open and verifiable. Bribery is forbidden. Powers are checked and balanced. Abuses are exposed and punished. Secrecy is curtailed and openness required. War powers are placed in a legislature or the public, or war abolished. Standing armies are disbanded. Profiteering and other conflicts of interest are avoided. Adversarial journalism is encouraged. Our government, in contrast, treats every elected official as a saint capable of overcoming all kinds of bribery and pressure to misbehave, while our culture encourages them and the rest of us to be anything but.
Many agree that we should reform our government, but is something else needed to handle the threat of sociopaths, in public and private life alike? Kall wants sociopaths to be identified and prevented from doing damage. He wants them treated as alleged sex offenders are, despite the horrible failings of that approach and the much greater difficulty in identifying who is and who is not a sociopath. Kall goes further, suggesting sterilization. He writes that he would have happily shot and killed Nazis; and in the next breath lists billionaire Americans he considers parasites -- later reassuring us that he doesn't want to kill them.
The identification process is not clear cut. Sociopathy seems to be something of a matter of degree, with some small degree reaching all of us. We allowed our government to destroy Iraq, killing some million people and making millions more refugees, and we talk about that war in terms of how many Americans were killed and how many dollars it cost, as if Iraq doesn't matter at all. Or we talk about the military investment that will generate more wars as if it were a jobs program. That behavior looks like sociopathy to others.
Congresswoman Barbara Lee is the quintessential non-sociopath on Capitol Hill, the one member who voted against launching the past dozen years of wars. But I was once in a room with her and other progressive members of Congress, relatively early in the Bush-Cheney rampage, proposing that impeachment be begun. Congresswoman Maxine Waters proposed opening an effort to impeach Vice President Cheney. Excitement gripped us. For an instant a few of us could imagine Congress pushing back against the lawlessness that has rolled on unimpeded to this day. And then Congresswoman Lee spoke up and said nobody had better do anything without getting approval from John Conyers. And that was that. Not sociopathy. But not pure principled morality either.
Studying the phenomenon of extreme cases at the other end of the spectrum from Rep. Lee is certainly desirable. What makes John McCain or Hillary Clinton tick? How could Dick Cheney contemplate ordering Americans to attack each other in the Straight of Hormuz in order to blame it on Iran and start a war? How could George W. Bush laugh off his lies about Iraq and claim it didn't matter? How could he proudly declare he would waterboard people again if given the chance? How could Barack Obama go to Copenhagen and intentionally and maliciously block any serious agreement to confront climate change? How could he pretend to know that Gadaffi was going to slaughter Benghazians or that Assad used chemical weapons, when evidence has emerged that he couldn't possibly have known any such things?
But if there have always been sociopaths everywhere, why are some societies doing more evil than others? Has the 95% of humanity that is currently investing dramatically less in war than the United States, identified and controlled its sociopaths? Or have they, rather, created less evil paths to power and influence? If a sociopath wants power and influence, why not give him or her a system in which good behavior is rewarded? In 1928 Secretary of State Frank Kellogg, who cared not a damn for peace, worked night and day for the peace treaty known as the Kellogg-Briand Pact because he saw rewards in that direction and told his wife he might get himself a Nobel Peace Prize. Had power lain in the direction of war-making, that's the direction Kellogg would have headed. If sociopaths make great propagandists, why not train better critical thinkers to see through the lies? Mentally healthy or not, our Congress members are holding off on bombing Syria or Iran because we've rejected the idea that doing so would improve things.
There is a danger, I think, in focusing on sociopaths' existence as the problem, of developing a cure as bad as the disease. Identifying a group of people to be targeted for discrimination, eugenics, imprisonment, or death seems like the habit of a culture that is itself more of a problem than are the genes of a small minority within it likely to be. What kind of a culture would produce such an idea? A sick one, I believe.
I agree with Kall that billionaires can be identified and their billions re-claimed. Excellent proposal! But not every immoral decider is a billionaire. Nor do I find it likely that every politician who promotes some evil practice can be diagnosed as a sociopath or psychopath. Wouldn't it be easier to identify evil politicians by their evil deeds? What would be gained by identifying them instead as the sort of people likely to do something evil, and giving that category of people a scientific name? If an elected official fails to protect the environment, fails to advance peace and justice, fails to deal honestly and fairly with the people, he or she should be held accountable. If recognizing that such a person's emotions may not be functioning like ours helps us to reach them with our demands, terrific. But if it prevents us from reaching their emotions in a way that we might have, and from communicating our views more widely in the process, then it's hurting the cause of justice.
It's not as if we can't recognize the sociopaths coming. Molly Ivins warned us about Bush. He lost his election. Twice. Many of us warned about Obama. Twice. But Bush wasn't born destined to engage in extraordinary renditions. Obama wasn't born destined to drone-kill children on Tuesdays. Our entire system moves in that direction. Bush and Obama should be prosecuted and imprisoned, along with many of their colleagues -- as a step toward fixing the system. But their bodies shouldn't be studied for clues about whom to sterilize. Only a political culture already itself sterilized would think that was the solution.

Interview with a GOP opponent of militarization: Police State Gears Up
By Dave Lindorff
(This article originally ran in WhoWhatWhy News)
If you're a small-town police chief, or perhaps the chief of a university security department, the US Department of Defense has got a deal for you!
Thanks to the ending of the Iraq War, and the winding down of the war in Afghanistan, the Pentagon has 11,000 heavily armored vehicles that it has no use for. Called MRAPs—Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected—they are designed to protect against AK-47s, rocket-propelled grenades and IEDs. And as pitchman Paul Richards used to say of the '69 Pontiac Firebird, "They're practically giving them away!"
Correction, they are giving them away.
All a local police department has to do to get itself an 18-ton MRAP—which originally cost taxpayers between $400,000-$700,000 complete with gun turret and bullet-proof windows—is send a few cops to pick it up and pay for the gas.
There are a few downsides: the things get only five miles to the gallon, can't go over most bridges (or under them), and have a nasty habit of tipping over on rough terrain.
Pandering to the Fraternal Order of Police: Senator Calls Winning Constitutional Case on the Death Penalty 'Undermining Justice
By Dave Lindorff
Pennsylvania Senator Republican Pat Toomey last week went before the whole US Senate to oppose the nomination by President Obama of Debo Adegbile, former head of the litigation department of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, to head the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division. In his speech, Toomey tried to argue that Adegbile is unfit for the job because he supervised the Legal Defense Fund's successful appeal in federal court of the death sentence of Philadelphia journalist Mumia Abu-Jamal -- an appeal that ended up vacating that sentence, and that was left standing by the US Supreme Court.
Toomey's position -- that Adegbile had "undermined the justice system" by filing that appeal claiming that Abu-Jamal's death sentence had been unconstitutional -- is ludicrous on its face. Given that the appeal was successful in federal court, and then upheld on appeal by a three-judge panel of the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, and given that the US Supreme Court, asked to reverse that ruling by Philadelphia's District Attorney and the Pennsylvania Attorney General, refused to hear the case, thereby affirming it -- to say that Adegbile had "undermined justice" is the same as saying that a Federal District Judge, an Appellate Court panel, and the Supreme Court all "undermined justice."
That's a pretty heavy indictment, even for a self-styled "Tea Party" senator!
But Pennsylvania's junior senator didn't stop there.

If Obama Orders the CIA to Kill a U.S. Citizen, Amazon Will Be a Partner in Assassination
By Norman Solomon
President Obama is now considering whether to order the Central Intelligence Agency to kill a U.S. citizen in Pakistan. That's big news this week. But hidden in plain sight is the fact that Amazon would be an accessory to the assassination.
Amazon has a $600 million contract with the CIA to provide the agency with "cloud" computing services. After final confirmation of the deal several months ago, Amazon declared: "We look forward to a successful relationship with the CIA."
The relationship means that Amazon -- logoed with a smiley-face arrow from A to Z, selling products to millions of people every week -- is responsible for keeping the CIA's secrets and aggregating data to help the agency do its work. Including drone strikes.
Drone attacks in Pakistan are "an entirely CIA operation," New York Times reporter Mark Mazzetti said Tuesday night in an interview on the PBS NewsHour. He added that "the Pakistani government will not allow the [U.S.] military to take over the mission because they want to still have the sort of veneer of secrecy that the CIA provides."
The sinister implications of Amazon's new CIA role have received scant public attention so far.
As the largest Web retailer in the world, Amazon has built its business model on the secure accumulation and analysis of massive personal data. The firm's Amazon Web Services division gained the CIA contract amid fervent hopes that the collaboration will open up vast new vistas for the further melding of surveillance and warfare.
Notably, Amazon did not submit the low bid for the $600 million contract. The firm won the deal after persuading the CIA of its superior technical capacities in digital realms.
Amazon is now integral to the U.S. government's foreign policy of threatening and killing.
Any presidential decision to take the life of an American citizen is a subset of a much larger grave problem. Whatever the nationality of those who hear the menacing buzz of a drone overhead, the hijacking of skies to threaten and kill those below is unconscionable. And, as presently implemented, unconstitutional.
On Feb. 11 the Times reported that the Obama administration "is debating whether to authorize a lethal strike against an American citizen living in Pakistan who some believe is actively plotting terrorist attacks." In effect, at issue is whether the president should order a summary execution -- an assassination -- on his say-so.
The American way isn't supposed to be that way. The "due process of law" required by the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution is not supposed to be whatever the president decides to do.
A free and independent press is crucial for confronting such dire trends. But structural factors of corporate power continue to undermine the potential of journalism. The Washington Post is a grim case in point.
Six months ago, Jeff Bezos -- the CEO and main stakeholder of Amazon -- bought the Post. But the newspaper's ongoing CIA-related coverage does not inform readers that the CIA's big contract with Amazon is adding to the personal wealth of the Post's sole owner.
This refusal to make such conflict-of-interest disclosures is much more than journalistic evasion for the sake of appearances. It's a marker for more consolidation of corporate mega-media power with government power. The leverage from such convergence is becoming ever-less acknowledged or conspicuous as it becomes ever-more routine and dominant.
After e-mail correspondence with me about the non-disclosure issue in early January, the executive editor of the Washington Post, Martin Baron, declined to answer questions from media outlets on the subject. On Jan. 15 -- when I delivered a RootsAction.org petition under the heading "Washington Post: Readers Deserve Full Disclosure in Coverage of CIA," signed by 30,000 people, to the newspaper's headquarters -- Baron declined to meet with me or designate any employee to receive the petition. Clearly the Post management wants this issue to go away.
But, as I wrote to Baron last month, it's all too convenient -- and implausible -- for the Washington Post to claim that there would be "no direct relevance of the [Amazon-CIA] cloud services contract to coverage of such matters as CIA involvement in rendition of prisoners to regimes for torture; or in targeting for drone strikes; or in data aggregation for counterinsurgency."
The surveillance state and the warfare state continue to converge. The Washington Post does not want us to insist on journalistic disclosure. Amazon does not want us to insist on moral accountability. President Obama does not want us to insist on basic constitutionality. It would be a shame to oblige any of them.
Norman Solomon is co-founder of RootsAction.org and founding director of the Institute for Public Accuracy. His books include "War Made Easy: How Presidents and Pundits Keep Spinning Us to Death." Information about the documentary based on the book is at www.WarMadeEasyTheMovie.org

These racks are top notch. I've owned a few different types of gun racks over the years and some even got the job done for a while but they all ended up wearing out and breaking sooner or later. That is not the case with these. I can tell they are made out of high quality materials. You don't need tools to make adjustments once the mounting plates are on. I've used them to carry my bow, rifle, shotgun, shovels, and fishing poles. As you can see, these are very useful to have if you use an ATV for any of those purposes. Well worth the money. I highly recommend them!Read All Reviews
Chris in Arizona
I've looked for a while for racks that work on my sportsman 500 and I'm glad I finally found these. They not only work but they get the job done exceptionally well. The wedge-lock pieces go into the holes in the rack and hold completely firm and solid. You don't even need tools to install or adjust them, it's all done by hand. The actual forks are made of high quality materials and hold my bow snug and safe. They seem to dampen the vibration from the engine and bumps too. That's a big plus because I don't have to worry about anything vibrating loose on my bow. These check all the boxes for me, I highly recommend them!Read All Reviews
Cory in Utah
These are by far the best gun racks I've ever used. The rubber material they're made of is flexible, yet sturdy enough to hold my rifle in place while I ride. I'm impressed with how adjustable they are too. The forks rotate 360 degrees and can mount anywhere on the rack. Easy to make quick adjustments while riding. No complaints here! I highly recommend these!Read All Reviews

Boise State RB D.J. Harper out for season
By Andrea Adelson
Really tough news for Boise State running back
D.J. Harper
. For the second straight year, Harper has torn the ACL in his left knee and is
out for the season
Harper was injured against Oregon State last week, but he did return to the game. Tests showed the tear in the same knee he hurt last year, the school said Tuesday. He also got hurt in the third game of last season and redshirted.
This season, Harper had 160 yards and two touchdowns behind
Doug Martin
, who has emerged as the starting running back. Luckily, Boise State has depth at the position.
Jeremy Avery
will now assume a greater role with Harper out.

It is a new horizon where the natural and the artificial co-exist in space." Sounds like hot air, but looks cool. Edited by Holden Frith Latest on wired.co.uk

Blues Guitarist Coco Montoya (ex-John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers)
Viper Alley Live ( 275 Parkway Drive, Suite 321 Lincolnshire, IL 60069 )
Our Price
Full Price
Blues guitarist Coco Montoya may be left-handed, but he doesn't play a normal left-handed guitar. In the tradition of lefty greats like Albert King and Otis Rush, this blues master plays upside-down right-handed guitar -- which means his strings are arranged "backwards." It's a unique and rare method that only adds to the former John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers guitarist's mystique as a true bluesman with very few peers. But that's not to say he can't work well with others, as Montoya's most recent solo album, I Want It All Back features guitarist Keb' Mo' and keyboardist Jeff Paris backing his fiery lead guitar and soulful vocals.
* Additional fees apply. No coupon or promo codes necessary to enjoy the displayed discount price.
All offers for Blues Guitarist Coco Montoya have expired.
The last date listed for Blues Guitarist Coco Montoya was Friday June 29, 2012 / 8:00pm (Doors Open at 6:00pm).

gothmo Female 18-291324 postsJuly 3, 2011 at 11:12 am@james
There are a lot of people who would do something like this in on shot just to prove that they could do it, you`re truly proud of yourself when you can get one of these to work.
Whether or not this one was is a different story, but it was awesome none the less!
EgalM Male 30-391707 postsJuly 3, 2011 at 11:39 amI was going comment on how nice it was filmed for a change. Than they showed it was a professional with a full steady cam setup. That puts it on par with the guy running around with hand cameras.
That`s what I thought it was at first, a guy with a really steady hand. Instead of a moderately good steady cam operator.

Wowummwow Male 18-29265 postsJuly 4, 2011 at 12:00 amI`m all for Rube Goldberg projects but a number of elements seemed repeated in several segments and the haphazard pacing didn`t allow the viewer to appreciate the machine. Also there were additional things going on other than the flow from beginning to end which detracted from the aesthetics.
Wowummwow Male 18-29265 postsJuly 4, 2011 at 12:07 amOn second thought... there was no end result. I`m not even sure what this.

Counter-Strike is a tactical first-person shooter video game which originated from a Half-Life modification and features real-world weapons.
Counter-Strike pits a team of counter-terrorists against a team of terrorists in a series of rounds. Each round is won by either completing the mission objective or eliminating the opposing force. The game has both individual and multiplayer options. Bots can be added into the game.
The online-multiplayer option is activated via Steam.
Other than similarities in basic gameplay, Counter-Strike is not in any way related to Half-Life. The original version was marketed as a commercial mod, but since then it has grown into a separate game in itself.
Hello, ModDB!
I'm glad to release the first stable, public version of CS16Client. We worked hard for a half-year and now it's playable fully. We got a 95-100% compability with original CS1.6. New game requires installed Xash3D Android v0.17.1 or higher.
Download links will appear in Download section in our ModDB page.
Source code is located on GitHub: Github.com
Before playing, make sure you have deleted all pak files in cstrike folder.

Django-in-a-Box documentation
You should begin by reading the Concepts page.
Once you're familiar with the concepts which Django-in-a-Box (DiaB) is based upon, you should move onto the directory layout documentation so you know where everything goes and where to look for certain things. The tools section will give you information on the tools which DiaB comes with by default, and the
etc/ directory documentation provides a reference for the plaintext configuration machinery in DiaB. Finally, you can read the quickstart document to get started straight away.
For helpful information on site administration, consult the README which comes with every DiaB site.
Django-in-a-Box currently only runs on UNIX-based systems. That means Mac OS X, *BSD, GNU/Linux and a few others. Unfortunately, I have neither the time, the resources nor the inclination to work around the issues which Windows presents; if you want to fork the project and add support yourself, go ahead.
Version Control
Django-in-a-Box was built to work well with Version Control Systems. There are just a couple of things to remember:
The project directory should be under version control, but not the site directory. The contents of the site directory will vary wildly from deployment to deployment, but the project directory should remain constant.
You'll want to tell your VCS to ignore certain types of file: compiled
.DS_Storefiles, and the
etc/symlink in the project directory. On Mercurial, this is done with a
.hgignorefile; Git uses a
.gitignore, and Subversion uses

Folklorist set for Jan. 21January 04,2013
BARRE — In recognition of the work of Civil Rights leader Martin Luther King Jr., the Vermont History Center will hold a storytelling by folklorist Jane Beck on Jan. 21 at 7 p.m. at the center on Washington Street in Barre.
Beck will recount the stories of Grafton resident Daisy Turner, a child of former slaves. She met Turner in 1983 and recorded a series of interviews about her life. Those interviews were the basis for the Peabody Award-winning radio series "Journey's End: The Memories and Traditions of Daisy Turner and Her Family."
A statement released by the history center said, "Turner left us a legacy loaded with tales of discrimination, resilience, and strength of the African American experience in Vermont. Her talent, her strength of character and personality, and her rich personal story make her a notable figure in Vermont history."MORE IN This Just In

To reach its destination, a newly created protein
must toil through the cytosol, moving past obsta-
cles, such as organelles, cytoskeletal fibers, and
countless molecules. Luckily, the cell has well-
organized systems to shepherd proteins to the
places where they are needed.
Vesicle Taxis
Perhaps the most challenging obstacle is mem-
branes. It's essentially an oil-and-water problem.
The cell's cytosol, the insides of organelles, and
many proteins are water-soluble, but the insides
Vesicle Research Venerated
How these two scientists made their discovery
is an interesting story itself. Despite skepticism
from their peers, Rothman and Schekman pursued
an unproven research method: using genetically
altered yeast cells to study cell secretion. Working
independently, the two discovered, in great detail,
how cells use vesicles to direct proteins and other
molecules to their proper destinations.
The fundamental research of Rothman and
Schekman taught scientists that vesicles are
vital to the livelihood of cells. Vesicle transport
underlies countless processes, such as the secre-
tion of insulin to control blood sugar, nerve cell
communication, and the proper development of
organs. The work also helped scientists learn to
use yeast cells as protein factories. As a result,
genetically altered yeast cells now pump out many
important products, including approximately
one-quarter of the world's insulin supply and
a key ingredient in hepatitis B vaccines.
The discovery of specialized vesicles called
secretory vesicles earned two cell biologists a
prestigious prize, the 2002 Albert Lasker Award
for Basic Medical Research, an award often known
as "America's Nobel Prize." James Rothman of
Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New
York City, and Randy Schekman of the University
of California, Berkeley, shared the prize for figuring
out that cells use secretory vesicles to organize their
activities and communicate with their environment.
A technique devised by basic researchers to study cell
secretion is now used to produce many medications.
coat. This vesicle then travels to the Golgi.
Strategically located docking sites on the Golgi
permit vesicles to latch onto and fuse with its
outer membrane to release their contents inside.
The same process takes proteins in vesicles from
the Golgi to lysosomes or to the cell's surface.
Cells also use vesicles to carry nutrients and
other materials into the cell in a process called
endocytosis. White blood cells use endocytosis
to fight infection. They swallow bacteria whole,
engulfing them in large vesicles. The vesicles then
Inside the Cell I Cells 101: Business Basics 27
fuse with lysosomes, which break down the bacte-
ria into molecular bits and pieces the cell can use.
Endocytosis occurs continuously, and cells
essentially eat their entire skin every 30 minutes.
So why don't cells continually shrink? Because
there is a mirror-image process, called exocytosis,
that counterbalances endocytosis. Cells use
this process to dump wastes out of the cell and
to replace membrane lost at the cell surface
through endocytosis.
Molecular Motors
Vesicles don't just wander around aimlessly. Like
many other materials inside the cell, including
some organelles, they often are carried by small
molecular motors along tracks formed by the
cytoskeleton. Your body uses motors to get all
sorts of things done—copying DNA (and fixing
it when a "typo" slips in), making ATP and pro-
teins, and putting molecules in the correct places
during development to make sure the body is
assembled correctly.
In recent years, scientists have discovered that
the workings of every motor they examined hinge on
the same two ingredients: an energy source (usually
ATP) and chemical reactions. Ronald Vale of the
National Institute of General Medical Sciences
University of California, San Francisco, has found
that molecular motors function sort of like a
falling row of dominoes.Chemical reactions driven
by ATP cause small shape changes in parts of the
motor proteins,which then alter the shape of other
parts of the proteins,eventually causing a forward
(or sometimes backward) movement of the motor
along its track.
Tiny Tunnels
While vesicles are ideal for handling large mole-
cules and bulky material, cells have a different way
to transport smaller molecules, like water and
charged particles (ions), across membranes. These
molecules travel through hollow or gated proteins
that form channels through membranes.
Lipid Raft
Inside the Cell I Cells 101: Business Basics 29
Channel proteins are just one family of
proteins that function within the cell's surface
membrane. They transport ions like sodium
and potassium that are critical to many biological
processes, such as the beating of the heart,
nerve impulses, digestion, and insulin release.
Unfortunately, channel proteins are tough to
study because they cannot easily be isolated
from the membrane in either their natural or
active states.
Yet with new and improved laboratory
techniques and good old-fashioned tenacity,
researchers are learning fascinating new things
about membrane proteins. One example is
work by Roderick MacKinnon of Rockefeller
University in New York City, that showed what
potassium channel proteins look like at the
atomic level. This revealed how these channels
precisely control which ions they transmit,
why they sometimes conduct ions only in one
direction, and how they open and close under
different conditions. Just 5 years later, in 2003,
MacKinnon received science's highest honor,
the Nobel Prize.
The body uses a
variety of ion channels
to transport small
molecules across cell
islands called lipid rafts. These rafts have a higher
concentration of certain specialized lipids, called
glycosphingolipids, and cholesterol than do non-raft
parts of the membrane. Rafts also are distinguished
by a different assortment of proteins. Certain types
of proteins cluster together in rafts, while others
remain mostly outside of rafts. The big question
is, to what extent do these rafts, seen readily in
artificial membranes, actually exist in living cells?
Using advanced laboratory methods and imaging
techniques, some researchers found evidence that
rafts, indeed, do form in living cellular membranes,
but these rafts may be small and transitory. Although
the existence of lipid rafts in cellular membranes
remains controversial, many scientists believe they
serve as communication hubs by recruiting proteins
that need to come together in order to transmit a
signal. Researchers are beginning to link lipid rafts
with a variety of diseases, including AIDS, Alzheimer's,
anthrax, and atherosclerosis.—A.Z.M.
Cellular membranes are sort of like a layer of
half-gelled Jell-O®
studded with fruit. The Jell-O®
portion is made up of lipids, and the pieces of fruit
are proteins that float around within it. Of course,
cell membranes are much more complex than
that. Depending on which organelle a membrane
encases and where in the body it is located, its
proteins (and to a lesser extent, its lipids) can vary
widely in type and amount. This allows different
processes to be performed in each membrane.
Until recently, scientists thought that individual
lipids and proteins floated around independently.
New data indicate that certain proteins tend to
group together, as if, in the Jell-O®
analogy, all
the peaches and pears clustered together while
the pineapple floated around by itself.
Researchers have learned much of what they
know about membranes by constructing artificial
membranes in the laboratory. In artificial mem-
branes, different lipids separate from each other
based on their physical properties, forming small
Mystery Membrane Rafts
As cells acquire and make the things they need,
including nutrients, RNA, proteins, and energy,
it's clear that something's got to give when it
comes to space management.
One way cells clear out waste is by attaching
a "death tag" to proteins they no longer need.
Recognizing this tag, called ubiquitin, a cellular
disposal machine called the proteasome begins
digesting the proteins.
Researchers have known about the existence
of ubiquitin for a long time. However, in recent
years, they have come to appreciate the fact that
cells use ubiquitin-targeted destruction for much
more than simply getting rid of debris.As it turns
out, cells fine-tune many critical processes by using
ubiquitin and the proteasome disposal system.
One example is the cell cycle, the recurring
sequence of phases the cell goes through that
culminates in cell division. Specific enzymes
control the cell's entry into each phase of the cell
cycle. After a phase is complete, its associated
enzymes are tagged with ubiquitin and chewed
up by the proteasome. Once that happens, the
cell knows to move on to the next phase of the
cycle. (For more information about the cell
cycle, see The Cycling Cell in Chapter 4.)
Researchers also are discovering that ubiqui-
tin appears to participate in numerous other cell
processes, including protein traffic control, DNA
repair, organelle synthesis, cellular responses
to stress, regulation of the immune system, and
long-term memory. Originally, ubiquitin was so
named because it is found in all higher organ-
isms, making it ubiquitous, or everywhere. As
scientists continue to learn of its myriad roles in
cells, ubiquitin's name is taking on a new shade
of meaning.
The significance of ubiquitin and the protea-
some was recognized with the 2004 Nobel Prize
in chemistry. Three researchers, Irwin Rose of
the University of California, Irvine; and Aaron

I'm trying to figure out backbone from an example app (see https://github.com/elfsternberg/The-Backbone-Store). The code uses jQuery's Deferred and promise(), as you see in the code below. I've read the docs on jQuery, but am having trouble figuring out from the example below how these methods are used. You might need more code to answer this question, but maybe not. These are the questions I have about it
1) is dfd.resolve called once fadeOut is done? if so, what does dfd.resolve trigger?
2) What is happening by returning promise.promise(); is it calling the Deferred method? when? why is it done this way? this seems like a recursive method?
3) is it possible that dfd.resolve is triggering other methods not shown in this code?
hide: function() {
if ((":visible") === false) {
return null;
promise = $.Deferred(_.bind(function(dfd) {
this.el.fadeOut('fast', dfd.resolve)}, this));
return promise.promise();
show: function() {
if (this.el.is(':visible')) {
promise = $.Deferred(_.bind(function(dfd) {
console.log("in promise section of show in base view");
this.el.fadeIn('fast', dfd.resolve) }, this))
return promise.promise();

Bercy Chen Studio's Green-Roofed Edgeland House Transforms a Former Brownfield in Texas
Posted By Mark Boyer On March 12, 2014 @ 11:00 am In Architecture,carousel showcase,energy efficiency,Environment,Gallery,Green Roof | 1 Comment
Located on a rehabilitated brownfield site in Austin, TX, the Edgeland House is a unique, triangular home designed by Bercy Chen Studio that is built into the earth and covered with a thick layer of sod. Because it is an earth-sheltered home, the Edgeland House is highly efficient, and it can stay warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer from the added thermal mass and insulation. Additionally, the high-tech home features hydronic heating and cooling, geothermal heat exchange, and phase‐change thermal heat storage.
The form of the home itself is shaped like a scar, perhaps commenting on the site's industrial past, while the lush sod represents healing. According to the architects, the home is a modern reinterpretation of the Native American pit house, which is one of the oldest types of housing used in North America. Like a traditional pit house, the Edgeland House is built below grade, and it takes advantage of the earth's thermal mass for more efficient [1] heating and cooling.
In order to build the house, the architects excavated 7 feet of soil from the site, and they installed a lush green roof. The home also features a "smart pool," which provides additional thermal mass that ties into the geothermal heating [2] and cooling system. "The project raises awareness about a diminishing natural landscape and its finite resources by creating a balance between the surrounding industrial zone and the natural river residing on opposite side of the site," according to a statement from Bercy Chen Studio LP.
