of diminishing journalistic integrity, how 'bout the rise and (immediate) fall
Gawker's Fox News mole? Earlier this month, Gawker announced
a new column by a Fox News employee, who was prepared to share the deepest,
darkest secrets from everyone's favorite conservative channel — or something.
Two days later, the "mole" (revealed as O'Reilly
Factor associate producer Joe Muto) was found out by the network and
subsequently fired. So that's the end of that, right? Not quite. Muto
was served with a search warrant early Wednesday morning. New York's District
Attorney's office seized Muto's laptop, cell phone and some notebooks as part
of an open investigation. Fox News is accusing Muto of conspiracy and grand
larceny, according to this warrant.
The best/worst part of the whole debacle is that Muto only managed four Gawker
posts, which included juicy Fox dirt like a photo of a bathroom Bill O'Reilly
uses and a clip of Mitt Romney talking about his horses to Sean Hannity. Yawn. UPDATE: Muto apparently grew up in Cincinnati. Represent!
Pizza Hut's new pies with cheeseburgers instead of crusts to the Heart Attack Grill
living up to its name, junk food on 'roids is all the rage right now! Las
Vegas' Heart Attack Grill is known for its over-the-top diner grub, including a
"Quadruple Bypass Burger," so should anyone be surprised that eating there
could potentially be harmful to one's health? For the second time this year, a guest collapsed at the restaurant, which boasts the Guinness World Record for
highest calorie hamburger (9,983 — about five times the calories recommended
for one day).
People go to Vegas for the thrill of a gamble — the Heart Attack Grill just
offers a unique spin!
Meanwhile, in the Middle East, Pizza Hut is finally solving that boring pizza crust problem (what are we supposed to do — just eat plain dough?!) by swapping it for cheeseburgers and chicken sliders. This came just weeks after we were introduced to The Hut's hot dog-stuffed crust, which is now available in the U.K. The most shocking part about these pizza monstrosities? They aren't served in the States (yet)! Are we becoming a healthier nation or is our fatness just rubbing off on other countries?
In movie news, a 2007 viral comedy short is now becoming a star-studded smorgasbord. Jay and Seth vs. The Apocalypse starred Jay Baruchel and Seth Rogan as friends confined to an apartment during the end of the world. Filmed in just four days immediately following production on Knocked Up, the short is only available as a trailer on YouTube:
After the success of Knocked Up, Pineapple Express and other Rogen comedies, the crew is remaking the short into a feature film, currently titled The End of The World. In the film, James Franco (playing himself) hosts a party at his apartment when the world begins…to end. Party-goers will include Jonah Hill, Danny McBride and Aziz Ansari, in addition to Rogen and Baruchel. It's an Apatowpocalypse!
While these dudes are taking something scary (the apocalypse) and turning it into something funny, this bitch is turning something from my youth (dolls) into the stuff of nightmares. Meet Valeria Lukyanov, "human" Barbie!

|Wieland earns Eagle Scout rank
|Written by April Peregoy
As proud family and fellow Scouts looked on, Dustin Wieland became the latest Boy Scout from Holyoke Troop 32 to earn his Eagle rank at a special Court of Honor on Sunday, Jan. 18 at the Lions Den in Holyoke.
Scoutmaster Glen Fricke gave the Eagle Charge to Wieland. The Eagle rank is one of the highest awards that can be achieved in the Boy Scout program, and it marks many years of achievement and effort on the part of the recipient.
Wieland is the 18-year-old son of Jack and Celeste Wieland of Holyoke. According to him, he has had the Eagle ranking since October, but it did not feel official until the ceremony on Sunday.
The court began with the ceremonial candle lighting. When a boy becomes a Scout, there is instilled within him something called the spirit of Scouting. One lighted candle represented that spirit.
Twenty-one other candles were also lit during the program, signifying the 12 points of the Scout Law, three points of the Scout Oath and six ranks of Scouting.
Fricke served as master of ceremonies during the Court of Honor. Others speaking during the ceremony were Ken Hazlit, Great Plains area executive for the Longs Peak Council, and Stephen Bohrer. Bohrer also took pictures of the Court of Honor for the Wieland family, to which the new Eagle said he is very grateful for.
Wieland and his father Jack then gave a presentation on the family's history in the scouting program and its ceremonies, and described Wieland's Eagle service project.
Fellow scouts who participated in Wieland's Court of Honor included Doug Moss and Jason Borland. Former scoutmaster Dan Kafka was there as well, and he and Fricke each received a special memorial knife from Wieland.
Wieland began his scouting program in the sixth grade as a Tenderfoot. Over the years, he has earned 22 merit badges, which is one more than the 21 needed to become an Eagle Scout.
Required merit badges include citizenship, fitness, environment, camping/outdoor activities, first aid and emergency preparedness. There are other optional merit badges a Scout can receive as well.
Last year, Wieland completed the final service project needed to attain his Eagle Rank by putting in large cement blocks at the Lions Club Fishing Pond. The blocks were placed in the water along the south side of the pond so anglers can fish along the edge without having to tangle with the bushes and weeds along the shore.
As Wieland explained it, the chosen projects have to be approved by the Longs Peak Council. The project has to have an impact on the community, and there is a required amount of hours the Scout must put into the project.
For the 18-year-old Scout, Sunday's ceremony was bittersweet. "It was nice to finally receive the rank," he said, "but at the same time I know I've gone as far as I can. Now it's time for me to help the younger generation of Scouts."
He added, "It was nice to have all my friends and family there. I usually see them in different settings, not all together in one place."
For Wieland, joining the Boy Scouts is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and he encourages young boys to give it a try. He said there is a lot of hard work involved, but it also provides an opportunity for fun. He specifically mentioned how much he enjoyed the camp outs, especially at Chimney Rock in Wyoming.
"If you look at the statistics," he pointed out, "many important people like astronauts and presidents were Eagle Scouts."

Thanks for the thread, it is very informative, I did have a question, however. If it has already been asked on this thread, I am sorry. I tried the search but it didn't seem to turn up any results.
Simple question, just how big a hard drive can you use in say an HR22-100? I noticed that there are now 4TB drives in existence. I don't really have need for that much storage, but I'd hate to find a good deal on a large drive some day only to find out that the DVR doesn't support the full capacity of the drive.
So far only Hitachi announced one model 5K4000 in December, but no one store selling those.

|Memorial Day service honors country's heroes
|Written by Darci Tomky
Red, white and blue flags were flying in the breeze on a nice Memorial Day morning, Monday, May 27 when a special service honored veterans at Holyoke Memorial Park southeast of town.
Over 300 flags marked servicemen and women's graves at the cemetery and greeted a large crowd as they gathered for the service.
They were welcomed by Terry Barth, commander of Veterans of Foreign Wars, Colorado Post 6482 and commander of Colorado American Legion Post 90.
"Memorial Day is more than a day off work," said Barth, noting its significance in honoring those who have served and continue to serve their country. "I still hear them marching behind me, and I cannot fail them," he said.

Richard Brown gave the opening and closing Memorial Day prayers. Siblings Ella and Luke Stewart provided special music for the service by singing the national anthem and "Battle Hymn of the Republic."
Holyoke native and World War II veteran Glen Stenson was Monday's guest speaker while in town celebrating his 70th class reunion. March 12 this year also marked the 70th anniversary of his joining the Navy in 1943.
"Our history is built on the sacrifice of men and women," he said, noting he wants to make sure today's young people are aware of and respect that sacrifice.
While on his Honor Flight to Washington, D.C., Stenson marveled at the respect his group of veterans received from students touring the nation's capital. He wishes all students would have the chance to see the memorials in Washington, D.C., to see the magnitude of lives given in sacrifice to the country.
World War II veteran Glen Stenson speaks to a large crowd during
—Enterprise photo
"Do our school children know how many vets are buried in these hollowed grounds?" he asked the audience. How many students have interviewed veterans about their experience in the service? What is today's society doing to make children aware of America's war history?
Stenson noted WWII was the last war American soldiers were allowed to win, with the wars following being settled by political agreements. "If we're going to send our young men into battle ... for God's sake, let them win!" he said.
Stenson concluded with, "God bless those who have served and continue to serve."
Jim Gribben is one of seven to serve in the color guard for the service at Holyoke Memorial Park.
—Enterprise photo
The Memorial Honor Roll was read by Barth and Brown at Monday's Memorial Day service. The audience also got to hear from Maj. Gen. Kenneth L. Hagemann, the second-highest ranked person to serve from the Holyoke community.
Monday's color guard included Jim Gribben, Steve Millage, Gene Kleve, Gary Snodgrass, Richard Miles, Alan Minton and Connley Hale.
To conclude the service, taps was played by Camille Elliott on trumpet.

Luc Besson was born in Paris, France on March 18, 1959, although he would spend little time in the cosmopolitan city during his youth. The son of scuba diving instructors who worked for Club Med, Besson's early years were spent along the shores of such far-flung locales as Italy, Greece and Yugoslavia. His childhood was, by and large, a solitary one. This, combined with his deep connection and love for the sea, would greatly inform his burgeoning imagination and future career choice. After his parents divorced and remarried, 10-year-old Besson returned to Paris, where he wrote dozens of stories during his spare time. Still insecure about his abilities, he showed the tales to no one. Spurred ... Continue Bio >>

Workshop in Kien Giang calls for more active participation in environmental management
05 November 2009 | News story
The workshop was aimed at staff from government agencies in Kieng Giang, Ba Ria-Vung Tau, and HCMC, including the Department of Natural Resources and Environment, Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, Environmental Police, Industrial Zone Management Board, Kien Giang Man & Biosphere Reserve Management Board, and district and commune people's committees. Representatives from the Kien Giang Union for Friendship Organization, National Motherland Front, Women's Union, Youth Union, and Farmers' Union also attended. The training included a visit to HVL's factory in Kien Luong.
The main recommendation was that local government should consult local people early on in the planning process not after the project has been approved, as is the norm in Vietnam. And communities should be more pro-active in reviewing local development plans and projects proposals. NGOs can play an important role in facilitating this process.
For more information, please contact Ms. Nguyen Thuy Anh at email@example.com

Fort Lauderdale, Florida - September 30, 2012
A South Florida family is mourning after a 3-year-old boy drowned in his grandmother's swimming pool while his relatives napped.
Broward Sheriff's officials said 3-year-old Metzden Cenord asked his mother Saturday if he could go into the bedroom to see his uncle. His mother said yes and watched the child walk to the other room but the uncle was napping so the child was left unsupervised.
Metzden went out a sliding-glass door and ended up in the pool. Family members saw his shoes floating on the surface of the pool.
His uncle pulled Metzden out and began CPR. The child was pronounced dead at the hospital.
Detectives are investigating the drowning.
The number one cause of death for children ages 1 to 4 in Broward County is drowning.

Denkmeier Optical
I have been asked over the years if I can produce a larger clear aperture front optic for our Denk Binoviewer/Power Switch Systems. When I first designed the Patented Optical Corrector System (OCS), I decided to use a typical optical blank diameter of 40mm. The clear aperture ended up being 37mm. However, 12 years ago, there were virtually no "commercial mirror makers" creating mirrors of F/4.2, F/4, and now even F/3.5!! Designing and making custom sized optics can be expensive when made in small numbers so I had to decline.
Over the last few years, enough calls have come in where I have decided to take the plunge. We have now produced 30 optical lenses and cells and made them the maximum clear aperture of 45mm. We have to produce a cell of proper gauge of course to house the optic but again, the clear aperture of this OCS Lens is 45mm. We can now ensure that you capture the maximum possible peripheral rays of that steeply converging cone of F/4.5 or faster in your 2" focuser. We test every single optic after mounting and they are performing beautifully. Delivery will be in approximately 30 days.
Order now. go to our website and use the link on the main page for more information!

East Rutherford, NJ (Sports Network) - Eli Manning threw for a season-high
four touchdowns as the New York Giants maintained their grasp on first place
in the NFC East with a 52-27 pasting of the New Orleans Saints at MetLife
David Wilson rushed for a career-best 100 yards on 13 carries and scored three
touchdowns -- one on a 97-yard kickoff return -- to help New York (8-5)
achieve its highest single-game point total since a 55-24 victory over Green
Bay on Dec. 20 of its 1986 championship season.
The win also kept the Giants in front of both Dallas and Washington for the
top spot in the NFC East, with a 1-3 stretch that preceded Sunday's matchup
enabling the Cowboys and Redskins to close the gap.
Manning finished with 259 yards on 22-of-35 passing and was intercepted twice,
while Victor Cruz compiled 121 yards and a touchdown on eight catches to lead
New York's receiving corps.
Drew Brees amassed 354 yards and a touchdown while completing 26-of-43
attempts for New Orleans (5-8), but was intercepted twice as the Saints
suffered their third straight loss and saw their fading playoff hopes take
another devastating hit.
Darren Sproles recorded both a rushing and receiving touchdown for New
Orleans, with Joseph Morgan accumulating 106 yards on only two catches.

A man charged in a shooting spree that targeted motorists along a highway corridor in four Michigan counties has been found competent to stand trial.
A forensic competency examination found Raulie Casteel fit for trial on charges brought by the state attorney general's office.
The findings were discussed Wednesday in Howell District Court.
Casteel faces a separate set of charges in Oakland County. A competency hearing is scheduled for Thursday in Novi District Court in that case, but the findings are expected to be the same.
Casteel faces 60 counts in Oakland County, including assault with intent to murder. The AG's office brought a terrorism charge against him.
Authorities say the 43-year-old shot at cars along Interstate 96 in October.
Defense lawyers describe Casteel as college-educated with no criminal history.

100th-delivery party
|100th-delivery party
|Celebrated when
|3010 (Devolution Revolution)
|Celebrated where
|Planet Express headquarters
|Celebrated by
|Bender and guests
|First appearance
|"The Mutants Are Revolting" (6ACV12)
The 100th-delivery party was celebrated in 3010, during the Devolution Revolution, in the Planet Express headquarters by Bender, its organizer, and other people he invited to it. [6ACV12] It commemorated the one-hundredth delivery of the Planet Express company, a soufflé Mrs. Astor had ordered from Elzar's Fine Cuisine.
When the Professor announced that the Planet Express crew had been hired to make their 100th delivery, Bender planned on throwing a party with 100 cakes, a 100 hookers and 100 Elvis impersonators. After delivering a soufflé to Mrs. Astor, they were invited to the Annual Astor Endowment Fundraiser. Bender stayed at the headquarters to prepare the party.
As Bender was serving Michael Collins Mix, he realized that Fry and Hermes weren't in the building, so he figured he didn't need to wait for them and decided to get the party started. A lot of characters from earlier episodes had been invited, the DJ Robot was playing "The Boogie That Be" by The Black Eyed Peas and both the hookers and the Elvis impersonators were there. The party seemed to be going well.
However, Bender ended up feeling lonely, as he was starting to miss his friends, who had been sentenced to two weeks in the NNY Sewers for harboring a mutant. As a result, he stopped the party and kicked everyone out of the building. Later, Fry would return to the surface to pick him up, so the Westside Pipeway could be bent. After the Sewer Mutants had been granted their freedom, the crew went back to the headquarters. Despite the 100th-delivery party having been the greatest party ever and Bender being partied out, they had another one... with "Bend It" by Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich.
The following people were invited by Bender to Planet Express headquarters for the 100th-delivery party.

Additional Info[edit]
- The 100th-delivery party is a reference to the commemoration of the one-hundredth episode of Futurama.
Bender: [After the Professor announces the good news to everyone.] This calls for a party, baby. I'm ordering 100 cakes, 100 hookers and 100 Elvis impersonators who aren't above a little hooking... should the occasion arise.
Amy: So, Bender... how was the party?
Bender: Only the greatest party ever! I don't need to have another party in my whole life! I am partied out!
Fry: Dang. Sorry we missed it.
Bender: We could have another one, if it'll make you guys feel better.
Fry: Really? Nah, that's not necessa— [Bender interrupts him and turns on the radio.]

Nice view of Fifth-Third Field ... and I'm in that photo most likely.
Beyond that, you have it wrong because both scenarios show mooches who choose not to buy tickets and instead leech off the efforts of the team's owners and players. Their non contribution to the game's expenses would trickle all the way down to the hot dog vendor who would have their income lessened not only by the mooches buying nothing but also by their tax bill being higher to police and maintain the hooligans outside the fence.
But, notice how the liberals kan fix things ok by uzing the same number of boxes, ie 3.
What iz a secret iz that the boxes are rented out by Big Fencing, a big donor to the conservativs, to ensure that fences get higher and higher.
The libs wanted a law that mandates a knothole in every tenth paling -- but this woz filibusted koz it would obviate high expensiv fencing.
larry, we don't hate the sinner, just the sins.
I'm sure some of us find you very tedious, but I don't think anybody hates you.
May God bless all of you.
Hating eldubb would be like luvving God.
Think. We dont know what eldubb looks like. Excepting that he looks like us.
And we dont know what God looks like, excepting that we look like Him.
Hondo ...must I use the search function to expose you again?
I recently took down my signature line quoting your hate because you seemed to have changed a bit ... so you repay me with lies?
Why am I not surprised.
I know what he looks like.
May God bless all of you.


text: Headed out to Wyoming last week in search of some lopes. Arrived on Tuesday in the middle of a nasty thunderstorm. The storm passed and we got to hunting. Saw a ton of bucks but not as many antelopes in general as past years. Hunted hard for 5 days and ended up with 2 nice bucks. Not sure what they score and havent measured them yet but we were happy with them. Any guesses? headed back home to catch up on work and then its out to Idaho to search for a muley buck.

A great tip: To make clean nearly invisible cuts instead of a knife, use dental floss. Instead of lifting the floss up after slicing into the cake-without lifting the floss up just pull it out one of the sides. No mess. You can take a cake to a party that looks virtually uncut-ready to serve!

i wouldn't rule out any of the southern parts of CO either. i've seen many giant mulies during sept elk hunts.
I have two weeks to take off next year to pursue mule deer. I'm looking for any advice or recommendations about some great backcountry bowhunts in Colorado and Idaho. I'm going to apply in Colorado and have my home state of Idaho as my backup choice.
After researching Colorado I have found that GMU's 43, 44, 45, 75, and 751 are some solid choices. GMU 44 is currently my first choice with 43 behind it. The downside is that I have never hunted in Colorado, so every area will be new to me. I may get a chance to scout the area a little over the 4th of July, if I'm lucky.
As for Idaho, I have hunted in East of the Boulder Mountains in GMU 48 and love spending time in those rugged mountains. However, I'd like to explore other areas like GMU 67. Does anyone have experience hunting in 67 during the archery season?
I'd love to hear some feedback.
Thank You
i wouldn't rule out any of the southern parts of CO either. i've seen many giant mulies during sept elk hunts.
I Love the smell of Elk in the mornin
The arrow is everything
Haisen, wish I could help you out but I can't as I've never hunted bowhunted them in either Idaho or Colorado, I'm of no help.
I have to ask you though, what do you mean by "unfortunately North Dakota at the time"????!!!! haha. We don't have mountains but there is still some great hunting here. I got a very nice mule deer there and posted some pictures in a thread. And if you are a waterfowl hunter it was an outstanding year. I've got some pictures in a thread about those too.
Are you working in the oil fields? Usually that's what is bringing everyone to North Dakota these days. Apparently when all you need is a pulse to get hired and start out at $60,000, people take notice. If you have any time to hunt, buy an OTC archery tag and hunt in the Little Missouri National Grassland. There is a huge amount of public land there and has some very big deer. Good luck with wherever you end up hunting.
I'm actually stationed at Minot AFB. I have looked over google maps to see what the Badlands looks like. I know the area holds some good mule deer based on some fairly recent record book bucks harvested out of the area. However, I'd rather use my leave to spend time backpacking in Colorado or Idaho pursuing mule deer.
It looks like there is some decent country with some fairly remote pockets that exist just east of the main river inside of Billings County. Is that kind of the general area you are talking about? I have looked at the tags and seasons, but haven't spent much time researching the area. I might be able to fit a few weekends in next year to explore some of Badlands.
Good Luck Hunting
Thank You
I'm not sure about where you are talking about exactly. There is a huge amount of public land though, well over 300,000 acres. It is spread out all over the southwest part of the state. Even just south of Lake Sakakawea has over 30,000 acres of public land.
Not sure how you have your residency but if you are not a ND resident, you have to apply for an any-deer archery tag. Whitetail archery tags are all over the counter.
unit 43 is still recovering from a rough winter a couple of years ago it is also trying to recover from david long killin the big ones Ha ha
there are some nice ones runnin around though not as many as before and it is very steep country i saw a 170's buck around 12,200 last year and still climbing
Ill give up all my hunting in Michigan for 2 weeks in the high country
43 has become crowded. Also watch out for free range sheep herding. They come through early in the season and blow out any pre scouted deer. Be prepared to change plans often and CO will be a good hunt
Live to hunt, hunt to live.

One of the greatest assets of the OSCE has been its comprehensive definition of security. The Helsinki Accords were visionary in stating thirty years ago that true security is not based on guarded borders and stockpiles of weapons, but on respect for human rights, good governance and transparency. By promoting democratic change, the OSCE was instrumental in ending the Cold War and the division of Europe. It is still engaged in developing measures that can help societies be freer and more prosperous.
But the OSCE's contribution to more traditional military security in Europe is also significant and should not be overlooked. During the suspicious days of the Cold War, some considered this aspect of the OSCE and its CSCE predecessor as tainted by Soviet efforts to manipulate the military situation in Europe and divide the United States from its allies. Western diplomacy, therefore, often downplayed the military aspects of OSCE's work in order to maintain a balance with what was being done, or not being done, in the field of human rights.
The substantive reality, however, is different. While supporting the Human Dimension, the United States and its allies also pressed for commitments that would enhance European security in modest but very concrete ways. The confidence- and security-building measures that formed the core of the OSCE's work did overcome barriers of secrecy and diminish the threat of surprise attack. Measures such as advance notification of troop maneuvers and observation of military exercises have become such a part of our way of interacting that we too frequently take such transparency for granted. In the early 1980s, OSCE negotiations were, for a few tense years, the only place where East and West were sitting at the table to discuss security matters. The 1986 Stockholm Document then ushered in a new era of effective, mutually beneficial arms control. A key provision provided for an intrusive on-site inspection regime that proved essential for subsequent treaties, including the verification regime of the INF Treaty. These provisions were further consolidated by the Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe (CFE), in 1990, negotiated under the auspices of the CSCE.
OSCE capitalized on the reunification of Europe throughout the 1990s. First they expanded the degree of military openness, then encouraged further reductions in force levels and equipment, and placed military institutions under democratic civilian control. In the latter part of the decade, the OSCE also served as a forum for addressing specific post-Dayton threats to security in the Balkans, the scene of the greatest fighting and worst violation of Helsinki principles in Europe since World War II.
Today the global security picture has changed from what it was ten years ago or even two and a half years ago. Peacemaking and peacekeeping have altered the nature of our military alliances. There is a growing realization of the multidimensional nature of the challenges that confront us. We have been engaged in a exacting war on terrorism. The threat of weapons of mass destruction and the proliferation of weapons, large and small, and related technology draws needed attention. And several commitments, which would greatly enhance security and stability in some parts of the OSCE region, remain unimplemented. These were freely undertaken and we hope to see full compliance with them soon.
The purpose of our briefing today is to examine how the OSCE has responded to these changes. We are interested in how it continues its unique contribution to European security and serves as a tool for advancing U.S. interests. This a particularly opportune time to examine these issues, since the United States has recently completed its turn as chairman of the OSCE's Forum for Security Cooperation – or FSC – where many of these issues are addressed. As a result of these deliberations, last December's OSCE foreign ministers' meeting in Maastricht reached agreement on developing more secure travel documents, export controls on portable air defense systems, best practices for the transfer of small arms and new measures for the destruction of ammunition stockpiles. These concrete action programs were coupled with a comprehensive strategy for addressing the security environment of the 21st century. The Ministerial also allowed a more open opportunity for the United States and others to press Russia regarding stability in the Caucuses and Moldova and fulfillment of CFE Treaty provisions that were revised and agreed in 1999.
Few are as informed on these developments and able to highlight their potential more than our speaker this morning, James Cox, who serves as the U.S. Chief Arms Control Delegate at the U.S. Mission to the OSCE in Vienna. The Commission invited Mr. Cox to come to Washington to highlight OSCE efforts regarding military aspects of European security, both in terms of the accomplishments just made at Maastricht and the challenges now faced regarding their implementation and additional actions the United States may be seeking.

Oklahoma tornadoes: Battle-hardened National Guardsmen work different kind of mission in Moore
MOORE — The landscape Sgt. Justin Taylor saw Wednesday was reminiscent of the worst areas he saw while on a combat tour last year in Afghanistan. But this was home.
Taylor, 27, of Blanchard, is one of 300 Oklahoma National Guard soldiers and airmen aiding local law enforcement as they secure neighborhoods in tornado-ravaged Moore. Most of those working the mission have served multiple combat tours.
Even driving into the area was a shock for Taylor, who knows the area well because he now lives in Norman and drives through Moore often.
"Some of the buildings … that got destroyed are landmarks that you are used to seeing," Taylor said. "It almost gives you a feeling of being in a strange place when you drive by. You don't recognize it. It's not like home."
Col. Van Kinchen, commander of the 45th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, is leading the National Guard's mission in Moore. His Moore residence was damaged in the storm.
"We were on the fringe," Kinchen said. "It makes it that much more personal. It makes what we do that much more important. I'm dealing with my own friends and neighbors and family that are all being affected by this."
In the immediate aftermath of the storm, guardsmen helped with search and rescue efforts. But their missions shifted Wednesday as they primarily worked security.
Taylor said the mission is satisfying — everyone wants to help. It is also far simpler than patrolling villages or driving dangerous roads in Afghanistan.
"The only thing I've got to worry about is somebody yelling at me," Taylor said. "No one is trying to kill me."
Dealing with hostility
Kinchen said local law enforcement leaders are making the decisions on who will be allowed in and at what time.
"In some cases we have people who don't have driver's licenses or anything, and we are just trying to be reasonable and help the people who need to be in there get in there," he said.
Getting around the area is frustrating. Downed power poles still block many streets in the area and ruptured gas lines are a concern. Wednesday morning, no one was allowed into the worst-hit neighborhoods in Moore, including residents.
"Some people don't understand that, and we get some hostility when we are turning people away from where they live," Taylor said. "These people lost pretty much everything they owned, most of them. They just want to get in and get what they can."
Sgt. Avery Thompson, 26, of Oklahoma City, worked a security checkpoint at a neighborhood along Telephone Road north of SW 19. At least, it used to be a neighborhood.
The homes behind Thompson were turned into piles of broken wood and debris by the tornado. Trees were stripped of every leaf; most of their bark and branches mangled.
"People who live in here are emotional right now," Thompson said. "Some of them have lost a loved one. But it's really dangerous to try and dig through the debris right now. There is a lot of broken wood and glass and nails everywhere. We are trying to keep everyone safe."
'We can get it done'
Thompson said seeing the scale of the damage makes it hard to imagine how everything will be cleaned and cleared away and rebuilt, but he knows it will happen.
Volunteers cleaned a cemetery in the area in just a few hours Wednesday morning.
"We can get it done," Thompson said. "The unique thing about Oklahomans is: we all want to help out. All of us here volunteered."
The Guard asked Monday night for 300 volunteers to work in the Moore area.
They got thousands. They are working 12-hour shifts, 150 at a time.
If any of them tire, there will be plenty to step in, Kinchen said.
"We've got soldiers from all over the state who have volunteered and are just waiting for us to call them," he said.
"In the end, that is part of what we want to do. We want to support our fellow Oklahomans."

text: Stencils are something that Cyrus Highsmith has always liked. To him, making legible letters with just a few parts is fun, but the challenge comes in adhering to a strict system. Tick and Tock are stencil relatives. They play a similar game and see themselves in each other, but they're distinct typefaces. Tick was born on a book cover that Highsmith freely lettered for his type design course. The lettering became this bold typeface that, while following a set of rules, is fiercely energetic. Tock, on the other hand, grew out of Tick's liveliness and matured in a mechanical way. Its strong vertical rhythm gives it a more organized feel. It's safe to say: these are two equally cool cousins. Font Bureau, 2014

Ultrasound can be used to provide information about a tumor or surrounding tissues and organs, and to precisely locate the position of a tumor in order to guide a needle biopsy.
This versatile imaging technology uses high-frequency sound waves to produce images of organs and tissues within the body. By capturing images in real time, ultrasound exams reveal the structure and movement of the body's internal organs, such as the heart, blood vessels, kidneys and liver.
Ultrasound can also be used to precisely locate the position of a tumor in order to guide a biopsy or aspiration procedure. For example, ultrasound may be used to mark out the boundaries of a tumor prior to its removal. It can also be used to administer cancer treatments.
Depending on the body part being examined, some types of ultrasound include: abdominal, breast, cardiac, pelvic, prostate, renal, testicular and thyroid. Unlike X-rays, ultrasound exams do not use radiation.

May 30, 2016
An Alabama House panel has approved a version of the state's education budget that would save teacher
The House Ways and Means Education Committee tweaked the Senate's budget, which would have cut more than 600 teacher jobs.
The House version reduces that to about 350.
The change was accomplished partly by removing $20 million that was in the Senate's budget for bus purchases. The House version would sell bonds to buy buses.
Committee chairman Rep. Jay Love says he thinks it's a good budget because it reduces cuts to higher education and maintains funding levels for pre-kindergarten education.
The bill also would give $1 million from a gubernatorial discretionary fund for a nursing center at the University of Alabama Huntsville.
It could come up for a vote Thursday.

12 Months of Inclusion – 1 Month at a Time
Want to make your organization more inclusive? Take a look at the images you include in your materials- are you representing the diversity of your community? CJP, Greater Boston's Jewish Federation, just released their 2015 calendar and with it, showed their commitment to inclusion.
The month of August features two brides signing their ketubah. (And, as an added bonus, these brides are the daughter and daughter-in-law of a founding member of the Keshet Parent & Family Connection program and Keshet board member!) We sat down with Julie Somers, CJP's Vice President of Marketing, to get the scoop on the calendar.
CJP profiles so many diverse organizations and causes in the yearly calendar. What is the goal of project?
The CJP Calendar helps tell the story of CJP's mission, the people we touch and the organizations that partner with us to make an impact in the Jewish community and beyond. And, of course it's very practical as it serves to provide information on the dates of all the Jewish holidays!
Why was it important to CJP to include an LGBT moment in the calendar?
Our community is diverse and we want people to see themselves on the pages of our calendar.
What was the process for selecting the photo of Jewish two brides?
In our efforts to include the diversity of the Jewish community throughout the calendar, we reached out to Keshet to find a photo of a same sex couple celebrating a ritual of Jewish life.
This powerful image captured the beauty of a Jewish wedding ceremony. Last year we featured a family with two moms who were hanging a
. There wasn't any pushback- CJP has been at the forefront of establishing an inclusive community for LGBT since 1998 when we developed a team of LGBT leaders to create programming. Along with Keshet, we support a community where Jews of all gender identities and sexual orientations are valued and integrated in Jewish communal life. I have heard it said that CJP opened the door and Keshet opened the entire house!

Tilting Hokuyo
Advait Jain (http://www.cc.gatech.edu/~advait), Advisor: Prof. Charlie Kemp
What this does
Tilting the Hokuyo using a servo and reading back the servo encoder position while getting scans from the Hokuyo allows us to generate a 3D point cloud of the world in front of the robot. We have used this 3D point cloud for object segmentation, door handle detection etc.
We first used this sensor in this paper: EL-E: An Assistive Mobile Manipulator that Autonomously Fetches Objects from Flat Surfaces. Advait Jain and Charles C. Kemp. Autonomous Robots, 2009. This paper and others can be downloaded from the Heathcare Robotics Lab website (http://www.healthcare-robotics.com)
Pictures of the Setup
This is the hardware setup that we use:
- Tilting servo: Robotis Servo (typically we use RX-28) CrustCrawler
- This gives a serial interface to control the servo: CrustCrawler
- Hokuyo UTM. (http://www.acroname.com/robotics/parts/R314-HOKUYO-LASER4.html)
- Bracket to mount the Hokuyo on to the servo.
- This is a custom part that we have designed.
- The solidworks CAD file (utm-servo-bracket.sldprt, utm-servo-bracket.igs). This requires Solidworks 2009.
- We have taken two routes for making the bracket
- buy Aluminium channels from http://mcmastercarr.com and drill the appropriate holes.
- use http://www.mfg.com to get the part manufactured from the CAD file. Will take between a week to 10 days.
- We thank Abhishek Bhatkhande for making the CAD model from the bracket design.
- Screws:
- Four M2x4 (2mm diameter, 4mm length) to connect the servo to the bracket.
- Two M3x6 or M3x8 to connect the UTM to the bracket.
- Longer screws will require washers.
The image on the right shows how we power the Robotis servos and connect to the USB2Dynamixel converter.
- The block labeled 12V is a power supply that takes unregulated 24V as input (red and white cables ending in a connector) and gives 12V regulated as output. Regulated power is not required for the servos but we also use the same power supply for Hokuyos and so find it convenient. RX28 servos can take between 12V and 16V (I think. Please read the manual to confirm).
- The output of this power block in the image is are the green (GND) and red (12V) wires.
- GND goes to both the USB2Dynamixel and the Robotis servo.
- 12V goes to the servo only. Notice that a cable on the USB2Dynamixel is clipped. This is intentional and is the one that is labeled N/C on the USB2Dynamixel. Connecting 12V to that causes the USB2Dynamixel to burn.
- The rest of the wiring from the USB2Dynamixel is simply straight connections for the RS485 communication.
- The RX28's communicate using RS485 protocol. Ensure that the USB2Dynamixel toggle switch is set to RS485.
- ROS (http://www.ros.org)
- You will need the following ROS packages from our public ROS repository (available at http://code.google.com/p/gt-ros-pkg/wiki/hrl_content_summary)

(FLORIDA TODAY) -- Last year, 11-year-old Zach Marks of Melbourne Beach earned the ire of his parents for going behind their backs and playing on Facebook.
When they discovered Zach's actions and his exposure to some of the more unseemly elements of the popular social network, he was banned from Facebook.
So like any intelligent youth up-to-date on technology and in touch with his peers' interests, Zach, now 12, enlisted the aid of his siblings and created his own kid-friendly - and safe - version of Facebook called www.GromSocial.com. Grom, by the way, is a young surfer, which pretty much describes Zach and his five brothers and sisters. They created all the characters on the site and direct most of the content.
Zach's father, Darren Marks, founder of an energy drink and food company based in South Florida, immediately saw the potential for GromSocial in the multibillion-dollar social media market and officially registered it as a company in March.
After officially launching nearly three months ago, GromSocial has 6,800 members around the world. The site gets about 2,000 unique visitors a day and 6,000 or so page views. In the vast online world, that's a modest amount perhaps. So far, it's built on modest marketing, mostly word of mouth. "It has just started to catch on," Darren Marks said. "It's amazing how this is all happening and taking off."
He and wife, Sarah, let the kids be in charge of the creative side while they, as watchful parents, work to ensure that it meets all the standards for safety. The latter includes complying with, and mostly exceeding, safety requirements established by the Federal Trade Commission's Children Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA.) GromSocial also received an "A" rating by the Electronic Trust Foundation, an international organization that promotes privacy and security in the online community.
Facebook has restricted users younger than 13, though it's considering lowering that to attract more users now that it's a publicly-traded company. However, underage users can easily work around that policy and many parents even assist their children in creating Facebook accounts.

This is the gallery lamp with a dimmable LED light that is conveniently operated by remote control. The remote allows you to adjust the 50,000-hour rated LEDs to four levels, from a soft, white glow to bright, white illumination. The 24 LEDs highlight artwork without generating heat or ultraviolet rays (like fluorescent bulbs) that can damage paintings. Its cordless design enables set up anywhere without being restricted by the location of power outlets. The metal lamp has an antique brass finish, it mounts to a wall or picture frame with the included bracket, and tilts to enable optimal adjustment of the light-projection angle. Lamp requires four D batteries that provide over 70 hours of light; remote control requires a CR2025 battery. Light can also be controlled from the lamp.
"The LED light gave our painting a luminous quality that changed with each level. We are very pleased with the quality, the appearance and the performance. " - K.M., Tennessee

Exactly what we were looking for.
By Tutor Lady
from Sarasota, FL
We needed a lamp that would not require us to add an electrical outlet behind the picture and was remote controlled due the the height of the picture. We looked around sites a couple of years ago with no luck. We found some that were battery operated but not remote controlled and the reviews were not favorable. When we saw this one we jumped on it. It is perfect for the spot!

Not for California

I bought 3 of these lights and they look great and work as documented. The problem I have is all have broken where the mounting tube attaches to the light. The light contains 4 D batteries which makes it heavy and unable to withstand a good eathquake jolt.

Exactly what I wanted
By Ann Freese
from Fresno, Ca
We purchased a beautiful photo on a vacation & hung it on a wall with no electrical outlet. The photo really needs a spotlight on it as it is quite dark. This light is the perfect size, is attractive itself & does not detract from the photo. Rather it shines light in just the right spot at an intensity we like because the light has a dimmer on it.
I really enjoy the gallery lamp

Apple Tree Calendar Share Distance Learning – Regulations and Compliance
Share Distance Learning – Regulations and Compliance
Distance Learning:
Regulations & Compliance
Every U.S. state has its own set of rules, regulations and requirements for chartering and authorizing institutions of higher education. However, with the expansion of branch campuses across state borders and accessibility of Internet-based learning, rules, regulations and requirements are continually being reviewed and revised.
As Internet-based learning has grown in both availability and sophistication, the institutions and other organizations offering courses and programs increasingly find themselves battling against an array of laws, regulations, rules and policies at the federal and state levels, and among accreditors and other quality-assurance organizations. This compliance – at best – can be costly, and – at worst – has erected barriers to access.
Between new Federal rules returning to the credit-hour standard, and state laws that require schools that enroll learners in 100% online courses to nonetheless secure a state license, there is considerable fear, confusion and significant misinformation.
Join your colleagues from across the country where we will provide you a summary of the state of all levels of regulation as it affects distance learning and provide a roadmap for navigating the complexities that surround the field.
Michael B. Goldstein currently serves as Co-Practice Leader, Higher Education with Dow Lohnes.
Topics Covered
Join our expert presenter as he addresses:
The basic regulatory structures that apply to distance learning.
The obligations of institutions to secure approvals from some – but not all – states.
The obligation of institutions to inform students where the school is allowed to accept enrollments.
The importance of property informing students regarding their ability to use their degrees to secure professional certifications, such as in teaching and nursing.

The rapper's new release picked up 658,000 sales to debut at number one ahead of new albums by Elton John, Cher and Kings of Leon.
Only Justin Timberlake has landed more sales in one week – his "The 20/20 Experience" debuted with 968,000 copies sold in March.
Kings of Leon's "Mechanical Bull" debuts at two on the new chart with 110,000 first-week sales and Cher lands her highest solo debut ever at three with "Closer to the Truth," her first album since 2002's "Living Proof."
Elton John's "The Diving Board" opens at four to give him his 18th top 10.
Last week's No. 1, Jack Johnson's "From Here to Now to You," falls to five on the new countdown.
