"Sometime this week, President Obama is scheduled to sign an executive order to meet the October 15 "adoption day" he has set for the nuclear deal he has made with Iran. According to the president's timetable the next step would be "the start day of implementation," fixed for December 25." That's Amir Taheri, writing in the New York Post. He added "But as things now stand, Obama may end up being the only person in the world to sign his much-wanted deal, in effect making a treaty with himself."
Iran has not signed anything and has no plans for doing so. The JCPOA (Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action) hasn't been discussed at the Iranian Council of Ministers, nor has the government bothered to provide a Persian translation of the text (159 pages). The Ayatollah Khamenei said early on that they had no intention of signing a document with America.
Obama's P5+1 group (Britain China, Germany, France and Russia) have apparently decided that Obama's deal is really only about lifting sanctions and not enforcing anything. So that's what they are doing. Putin is renewing his interest with Assad and propping up the Assad dictatorship in Syria, as well as starting delivery of S300 anti-aircraft missiles and is engaged in talks to sell Sukhoi planes to the Islamic Republic.
Britain has lifted the ban on 22 Iranian banks and companies that were reportedly involved with nuclear deals. German trade with Iran has risen by 33 percent, and they are now Iran's third-largest trading partner after China.
China has signed a preliminary accord to help Iran build five more nuclear reactors. France has sent its foreign minister and a 100-man delegation to negotiate projects to double Iran's crude oil exports and negotiate other big business deals. Everybody regards the JCPOA as a green light for dropping sanctions. Indian trade us up 17%, and New Delhi is negotiating a massive investment in a rail-and-sea-hub on the Gulf of Oman.
Austrian, Turkish and UAE banks are lifting restrictions that were imposed on Iran because of their nuclear program. President Hassan Rouhani boasted that "the structures of sanctions built over decades is crumbling."
They have no intention of shutting down their nuclear project.
The Iranian crowds are not shouting "Death to Britain, France and Germany. Death to India, Russia and China." They are quite specific. It's America and Israel. We do need to keep that in mind.
The Mullahs are certain that Obama is paralyzed by his fear of undermining the non-existent "deal." They are encouraging Palestine in a new Intifada, working to choose the next president in Lebanon, and are calling openly for overthrow of the monarchy in Saudi Arabia.
Obama has hoped to engage Iran on other issues, and reportedly hoped to meet with the Ayatollah Khamenei in Tehran to shake his hand and, I guess, formally turn the Middle East over to Iran. Khamenei declared last week "any dialogue with the American Great Satan to be forbidden."
There has been a ballistic missile test in Iran that apparently violates the Iran Deal. Nevermind.
Obama has apparently moved into a fantasy world in which Putin is exhibiting his weakness, while Obama shows what real leadership is with his Climate Change initiatives. Inside Iran, Obama's moderate partners who would never actually use a nuclear weapon have doubled the number of executions and political prisoners. They crushed marches by teachers last week. Hundreds of trade unionists have been arrested and potential protesters are terrorized by a new "anti-insurrection" brigade.
President Obama appeared with Steve Kroft on 60 Minutes yesterday. It was an amazing interview. If you didn't see it, a video and transcript are available here. It is very interesting.

Once again the administration is being taken by surprise. Moscow has established a new airbase in Syria to go with its existing naval base. and they are determined to keep Bashar Assad's regime in power. The U.S. no longer has any influence in Baghdad, and ever since the U.S. forces pulled out in 2011, Iran has become the dominant player in Iraq.
When Russia sent in flights to create a new Russian military base in Syria, our protests were ignored. President Obama's failure to act on his red line in Syria has consequences. When he could not even act against Assad's use of chemical weapons on his own people or Iran's development of a nuclear program, it 's pretty clear that he's not going to do anything.
Humiliated, Obama is now trying to pretend that Putin will "help"take care of ISIS, but he has been attacking the rebels fighting the Assad regime instead. This is a pure power play by the Russian President. Leon Aron, who is the director of Russian Studies at AEI, looks at why:
- To establish a sustained, open-ended Russian military presence in the Middle East for the first time since President Sadat sent Soviet personnel home in 1972, thus recovering a key Soviet geopolitical asset as postulated by the Putin Doctrine.
- To establish the Russia-Iran-Syria (and possibly Iraq) de facto alliance as the dominant military and thus political actor in the Middle East.
- To boost patriotic mobilization in Russia, which increasingly is the Putin regime's sole claim to legitimacy. With the economy tanking fast, the ruble down 57% from this time last year, inflation at around 15%, and the seemingly stalemated war on Ukraine no longer generating enough heat to keep the patriotic fervor a-boil, Putin needs another "short, victorious war" (as the Minister of Internal Affairs Vyacheslav Plehve hailed the ultimately disastrous Russo-Japanese war of 1904-05).
The question becomes how far will Putin go? Both Aron and Ralph Peters suggest that we should be prepared for an "accidental" shoot down of a U.S. or British or French plane? That Putin delights in humiliating the United States is not a surprise. That the Obama administration seems regularly to be surprised is more worrying.

When you draw a 'red line,' or 'a line in the sand' publicly in international terms, it is a very serious threat. When you back down your reputation is permanently damaged. That is usually a lesson that one learns on the playground.
In a 2012 press conference in Stockholm, Obama said:
I have, at this point, not ordered military engagement in the situation. But the point that you made about chemical and biological weapons is critical. That's an issue that doesn't just concern Syria; it concerns our close allies in the region, including Israel. It concerns us. We cannot have a situation where chemical or biological weapons are falling into the hands of the wrong people.
We have been very clear to the Assad regime, but also to other players on the ground, that a red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized. That would change my calculus. That would change my equation.
Assad unleashed a sarin gas attack on Syrians in Ghouta just outside of Damascus. Obama avoided any action in Syria in order to help with the Iran negotiations. The image above is a neighborhood in Syria.
The answer was supposed to be investing $500 million in training some of the Syrian rebels to fight Assad's army, but it actually yielded just four or five fighters.
So now President Obama and his foreign policy team are confused.Why is Vladimir Putin pouring troops and weapons into Syria? Secretary of State John Kerry has told his Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov that it really isn't helpful, and is making things worse. Russia has deployed a small number of tactical jets in Syria for the first time. Moscow is clearly preparing to help Assad cling to power. American pilots regularly fly surveillance flights and airstrike missions, the direct involvement of Russian forces could mean trouble.
Russia has been an ally of Syria since Sadat kicked the Soviets out of Egypt in 1972. Look at a map. Putin has re-claimed the Crimea and is simply asserting their influence in the Middle East. Putin's ambition is always to avenge and reverse Russia's humiliating loss of superpower status over 25 years ago.
Obama's efforts to train an opposition army to fight the ISIS has been an abysmal failure. And an expensive failure. But the White House is not to blame. The finger, the White House says, should be pointed not at Mr. Obama, but at those who pressed him to attempt training Syrian rebels in the first place. The New York Times says:
In effect, Mr. Obama is arguing that he reluctantly went along with those who said it was the way to combat the Islamic State, but that he never wanted to do it and has now has been vindicated in his original judgment.
Mr. Trump simply says "Syria's a mess, Why are we fighting ISIS in Syria? Let them fight each other and pick up the remnants." A comment much in line with his simplistic answers to everything else.
Ryan C. Crocker who was ambassador to Afghanistan under Mr. Obama and ambassador to Iraq under George W. Bush said the president was right to think that a train-and-arm program would not work, but he either should have continued to resist or taken ownership rather than blame others.
How un-presidential that sounds — 'We didn't want to do it, we thought it was unsound but you made us do it,' " said Mr. Crocker. "It's just indicative of their whole approach to Syria, which is not to have a policy. This is the worst thing they could say."
Now refugees are flooding Europe. We don't know who are refugees, who are migrants, and who are members of ISIS. What we are learning is that EU estimates are that four out of five migrants are not from Syria but from Afghanistan, Sudan, Iraq and even states farther removed. Mr. Obama's response seems to be welcoming a hundred thousand or so refugees every year into the indefinite future.

The news about our favorite bureaucracies just keeps coming. In this case it is the Internal Revenue Service. The IRS reported a wee break-in to its computer systems back in May. Now they have admitted that an additional 220,000 taxpayer accounts have been compromised.
So if the ObamaCare Hospital required computer breach didn't get you, you have another chance to get your identity hacked by the IRS — that trusted organization that deals so efficiently with your taxes. There were also 170,000 instances of "suspected attempts that failed to clear the authentication processes." whatever that means.
So the number of stolen identities now adds up to 334,000 , nearly three tunes the IRS original estimate of 114,000.
Why, it was only about a month ago that it was the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) that admitted that Chinese-origin cyber attacks on its computer networks compromised the personal data of 22.1 million Americans who had been employed by the government.
And earlier this month defense officials said that Russia had launched a "sophisticated cyber attack" on the Pentagon's unclassified email system used by the Joint Chiefs of Staff at the end of July. That breach affected approximately 4,000 military and civilian employees, including Chairman General Martin Dempsey.
The IRS break-in occurred in an online service called "Get Transcript" an application that helps taxpayers get their prior year return information. It has been shut down. The IRS will notify taxpayers who were potentially affected as soon as possible and provide them with support — such as free credit protection.
It would be reassuring to hear a strong voice from Washington, telling us that tech experts are already hard at work hardening off or rendering government computer systems impregnable from enemy attack. Instead, we hear the Democratic candidate for president insisting that she never received, saw, or heard of a classified document, and certainly never sent one. That server of hers was all yoga exercises and wedding plans and baby showers and messages to Bill, who has never sent an email message in his life.
Can we expect Cyber-Security from the folks who gave us ObamaCare?

The subject of the day is the debates, and Donald Trump. He does seem to suck all of the air out of the room.
My father would have described him with a rather old-fashioned word, "blowhard." His candidacy can be summed-up as — I am Trump, I am very famous and very rich and you should vote for me.
Trump popped up just in time for the Republican Debates, loudly punching what is a hot button for many on the Right, President Obama's personal repeal, on his own "executive authority," of the United States of America's immigration laws. They have watched the trains with hundreds of illegals on top of the boxcars, they have watched them arrive, be sent all over the United States, and are inclined to blame it on Mexico.
Trump bellowed that he would build a big wall, a gigantic wall and make Mexico pay for it, and he might put in a big door for legal immigrants. Voilá, problem solved. Except it's a shallow and superficial answer. Most of the immigrants have not been Mexican. It's absurd to suggest that the Mexican government would pay for it.
It's a huge and real problem, and nobody seems to know how to deal with it except to say that we must reform our immigration laws. Democrats want more Democrat voters, and their goal is to get them all registered to vote as quickly as possible. But this is not a column about immigration, but about Trump. He makes no serious effort in behalf of any issue, nor seems to have the discipline to master an issue.
Asked about ruling out a third-party run, he said if you nominate somebody I respect, then maybe he won't. That sounds like somebody who has only been a Republican for the last few minutes.
(That's not a nice picture, but I couldn't resist. People always wonder — 'What's with the hair?')

The great historian of Russia has passed away at the age of 98. Robert Conquest spent 28 years at the Hoover Institution where he was a Senior Research Fellow. He has, perhaps, been best known for his landmark work The Great Terror: Stalin's Purge of the Thirties. Thirty-five years after its publication, the book remains one of the most influential studies of Soviet history and has been translated into more than 20 languages. It is a detailed log of Stalin's assassinations, arrests, tortures, frame-ups, forced confessions, show trials, executions and incarcerations that destroyed millions of lives.
Conquest was the author of twenty-one books on Soviet history, politics, and international affairs, including Harvest of Sorrow, which exposed the terror famine in the Ukraine, Stalin and the Kirov Murder, The Great Terror a Reassessment, Stalin: Breaker of Nations and Reflections on a Ravaged Century and The Dragons of Expectation. The last two are treasured books of mine.
He wrote one science fiction novel, and lots of poetry for which he also received awards.
He had no shortage of awards, the Jefferson Lectureship, the highest honor bestowed by the federal government for achievement in the humanities (1930), the Dan David Prize (2012), Poland's Commander's Cross of the Order of Merit (2009), Estonia's Cross of Terra Mariana (2008), and the Ukrainian Order of Yaroslav Mudryi (2005).
Educated at Winchester College and the University of Grenoble, he was an exhibitioner in modern history at Magdalen College, Oxford, receiving his BA and MA in politics, philosophy, and economics and his DLitt in history.
Conquest served in the British infantry in World War II and thereafter in His Majesty's Diplomatic Service; he was awarded the Order of the British Empire. In 1996 he was named a Companion of the Order of St. Michael and St. George.
He received the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2005.

Filed under: Foreign Policy, National Security, Russia | Tags: Putin, Russian Ambition, Winston Churchill
From The Wall Street Journal's "Notable and Quotable" column. The quotation comes from "What Would Churchill Do" by Mark W. Davis, a former speechwriter for President George H.W. Bush, Summer issue 2015 Wilson Quarterly.
During the Cold War, Churchill preached a stoic optimism equal to the long task of countering and containing Moscow's designs. He said of the Russian people that the "machinery of propaganda may pack their minds with falsehood and deny them truth for many generations of time. But the soul of man thus held in trance, or frozen in a long night, can be awakened by a spark coming from God knows where, and in a moment the whole structure of lies and oppression is on trial for its life."
The power of social media is the true "soft underbelly" of this regime. Putin himself revealed his fear of Facebook and Twitter when he signed new laws requiring social networks to store data on Russian users in Russia, subjecting them to censorship. The public murder of Russian opposition leader Boris Nemstov has opened the minds of young Russia, giving the West an opportunity to make the most of cracks and crevices in Putin's firewalls. For the West, the best strategy is a policy of patience, firmness, and determination to undermine the Putin regime and frustrate its forays—for decades, if need be—until the day when the whole structure of its lies and oppression are put on trial by young Russians.
And we should remember Winston Churchill's final bit of advice as he prepared to leave office: "Meanwhile, never flinch, never weary, never despair."
ADDENDUM: Also in the Wall Street Journal, Holman Jenkins suggests that Russia's president clearly seems to be lifting strategies from the Hitler playbook, likely deliberately so. Perhaps Obama is not alone in searching for a "legacy."

Human language has changed in the age of globalization: no longer tied to stable and resident communities, it moves across the globe, and it changes in the process. The world has become a complex 'web' of villages, towns, neighbourhoods and settlements connected by material and symbolic ties in often unpredictable ways. This phenomenon requires us to revise our understanding of linguistic communication. In The Sociolinguistics of Globalization Jan Blommaert constructs a theory of changing language in a changing society, reconsidering locality, repertoires, competence, history and sociolinguistic inequality.Read more

By Rob Schuette, Fort McCoy Public AffairsNovember 14, 2008
The new Fort McCoy Child Development Center (CDC) is taking shape as the company awarded the project quickly moved the modular sections into place.
Jeff Thomas, the superintendent for the Murillo Modular group of Carrollton, Texas, said his firm is constructing the CDC facility. Construction began in mid-September and should be completed in 2009, possibly in the summer time frame.
The $4.8 million, approximately 13,000-square-foot facility is being funded with appropriated funds under the National Defense Authorization Act through a Department of Defense contract.
"These (modular) facilities are as good as, if not better than, construction built on site," Thomas said. "A big advantage to using modular construction is the speed in which the facility can be built."
MarkLine Industries of Bristol, Ind., built the modular sections in its facilities in about 30 days, Thomas said.
"It would probably take four or five times that long to do the work on site," Thomas said. "The process is done in a weather-controlled factory that takes the inclement-weather variable out of the construction timeline."
Dave Gundlach, Fort McCoy Directorate of Public Works project manager, said the new CDC will replace facilities built out of World-War II era wood, which have been extensively renovated to meet the needs of the youth and staff.
"It's always a challenge to bring the (current structure) up to standards," Gundlach said. "The new facility will be built to meet up-to-date standards (for electrical, heating, cooling, fire codes, etc.)."
Murillo Modular also has been awarded the contract to construct a School Age Services (SAS) facility near the CDC site. Thomas said he wasn't sure when construction of the SAS facility would begin.
Depending on how the project time line moves ahead, there could be some overlap of the two projects, he said.
According to an American Forces Press Service story, the new Fort McCoy CDC is one of 20 facilities being built under an accelerated DoD-wide program to support military child care.
President George Bush called on Congress during his State of the Union address earlier this year to provide more quality-of-life support for military families, including expanded access to child care.
These centers offer full-day, part-day and hourly child care, as well as part-day preschool and before- and after-school programs for school-age children.
Daryl Budda, chief of the Business Activities of the Fort McCoy Directorate of Family, Morale, Welfare and Recreation, said the CDC construction will help support the Army's commitment to take care of Army Families through the Army Family Covenant and Army Community Covenant.
Constructing a modular facility is unique in that it takes far less labor than doing it all on site, which saves labor costs, Thomas said.
The modular facilities also include electrical and plumbing work installed in the new building.
Thomas said the drywall also can be included.
The next step in the process is to make the facility watertight and weatherproof so heating sources can be installed and work can proceed over the winter months on inside amenities, such as installing flooring or painting.
"The end result will be as good as a building constructed the regular way," said Thomas, who has been constructing modular facilities for the past 18 years. "I think once it's finished that anyone looking at it would have a hard time telling it from a building constructed completely on site."

He's 6'4 weighs 265 has 33 1/2in arm with 10in hands. His stock has taken a slight fall as he was projected mid 1st round and is now projected mid 2nd. He didn't perform at the combine because he wanted to fully heal from an injury but he will do all the drills at his pro day. There has been speculation that last year Baalke wanted to pick up Bruce Irvin and have a rotation of pass rushers so maybe his eye is on one this year too.
Pay attention to how much Okafor plays standing up. The nickle formation is essentially the same as our nickle formation. I have no doubt he could produce in his first year on passing downs. We could cut Haralson, save money, and get more production from his spot. A guy that can rush the passer like Okafor can put a team over the top much like Aldon did this year.

Man's giving spirit is in the mix, loaves
I walk up the driveway of Harold Sorensen's home on Kalua Lane in Tustin and ring the doorbell. No answer. I ring it again, hitting the button several times. I can hear it ringing. I pound the door. Nothing. But I know he's in there. For 15 minutes, I repeat this ring-and-knock procedure. Finally, the door opens.
"I almost gave up on you," he says. I crack up.
How did I know he was home? Because the moment I stepped onto his property, the smell of baking bread hit me like I was driving by a Hostess factory.
Sorensen, 87, has become something of a baking nut, so much so that Krusteaz – a Washington maker of bread and cake mixes – flew down a team of cooks last month to surprise him with a pancake breakfast for him and 150 of his fellow congregants at Calvary Church of Santa Ana.
It's not because Sorensen buys so much mix, it's what he does with it. Each week, he bakes about 30 loaves of bread – sandwich-style bread and dessert loaves – and delivers them to elderly neighbors, shut-ins at an assisted-living home, church groups and the Orange County Fire Authority station where his son, Dennis, works.
Sorensen and his baking buddy across the street, Bob Gamson, search out and hoard Krusteaz mix, which was developed by some bridge club ladies in Seattle in 1932. Sorenson takes me through his house, showing me the mix he has shelved in four different rooms. Double chocolate, blueberry, apple-cinnamon, lemon, oat bran, raspberry, pecan – 51 varieties and flavors in all that he's got stashed, a total of about 400 boxes.
He points to a box of key lime bar mix. "I'm low on key lime. Hard to find." He takes me to a back bedroom closet where boxes of pumpkin bread mix have their own shelves.
"Everybody likes pumpkin bread, but come the end of the year, you can't find any because it's seasonal."
Sorenson bought every box Costco had, which he hopes will get him through October, when it will appear in stores again. "I can make about 110 loaves of bread right there," he says nodding at the pumpkin mix cache.
An orphan, Sorenson doesn't know where he was born. He was adopted by a Santa Ana family when he was 7, graduated from Santa Ana High in 1944 and served in the Pacific in World War II. He and his wife, Bonnie, were married in 1948, bought the house on Kalua in 1962 and raised two sons. Harold was a loan officer at a savings and loan.
The baking started in 2010. Bonnie was dying of cancer.
"She wouldn't eat anything. Nothing tasted any good to her. So I was looking around the store, and I saw Krusteaz cranberry-orange mix. I said, 'Let's try it.' "
He baked it and fed it to her, along with some frozen yogurt. She liked it. He went back and bought blueberry, lemon poppy seed and chocolate mixes and baked them, and she ate those. "The last five months of her life, she lived off of Krusteaz and frozen yogurt."
When Bonnie died, he kept baking. He joined a grief-support group and started baking for members. He made a list of neighbors to bake for. Gamson had lost his wife at the same time – she and Bonnie had been close friends – and the widowers formed a partnership.
Sorensen came to the attention of Krusteaz when he wrote the company explaining what he was doing and asking if he could have a comprehensive list of its products and which retailers carried them. Krusteaz employees decided to do something special for him.
On Feb. 10, the morning of the surprise breakfast, Sorensen woke up sick. When he didn't show up at church, some members came and got him. He couldn't figure out why they were so insistent – something about a special speaker. It wasn't until he walked into the church hall and they put him on stage that he realized he was the special speaker.
"I have no idea what I said, but I talked for half an hour."
Then he went home and went to bed. Two days later, he was in the hospital with pneumonia. After 18 days, he got to go home and resume baking.
He sends me on my way with a loaf of cinnamon-raisin bread and a box of mix of my choice. ("Anything but key lime," he says.)
"My biggest problem," he explains, "is that I'm diabetic and I can't eat a lot of this stuff – which isn't fair."

A History of Pop Culture's Obsession with Human/Cat Hybrids
#2. Ron Perlman in Beauty and the Beast
Most of Ron Perlman's live-action career has consisted of gamely putting on 10 pounds of makeup or so and being the best demon, neanderthal, mutant or man-lion he can be. One of his most famous roles was Vincent in the TV series Beauty and the Beast, where he played, as you can see, a man-lion guy who lived in the sewers of New York.
"But ladies swooned over that show," you might say. "They had a pretty young lady fall in love with Mr. Catface there." Yes, but the whole basis of the show was the unquestioned assumption that if you have a catface you have to live underground, because it freaks people the fuck out. The whole premise of the show (and the Beauty and the Beast fable it's based on) was how awesome and special the girl is to look past his hideous catface and see who he really is on the inside. If people thought catfaces were awesome, that wouldn't be much of a storyline.
#1. Furry Fanart
All right, that's not so bad, you might think, looking at the pic above. But I really can't link you to any proper examples. Let's just say that on the first page of a Google image search; there are a lot of catwomen with their private parts prominently displayed as the focal point of the artwork.
Clearly some people want to be cats really really bad. How bad? Well, if you haven't heard of Warriors yet, it's a big series of 24 books about cats, if cats lived in clans and had an honor code and tried to accomplish things. Whatever, they're children's books about an imaginary animal society. Might as well criticize Watership Down, right? Well, that's not the weird part.
The weird part is the massive amount of role-playing forums apparently populated by adults trying to role-play the characters from Warriors. One excerpt from a player profile:
"During the birth of New-leaf, in its coldest days, the daughter of ThunderClan's leader gave birth under the watchful eye of the Medicine Cat. Gingertail bore a Tom and a She-cat without naming the sire. This choice was made because the cat she loved was not a part of the clan. He was not even a loner or Rouge, but a Kittypet with a blue-blooded pedigree known by the name Socrates."
Anyway, now that we've learned that cat-humans always land somewhere between laughable and outright nightmare fuel, are there any circumstances where you can get away with it? Yes, a couple:
A) You Can Put Cat Ears On a Hot Woman
If it's clearly basically just a hat, and you don't mess around with what makes a person a person, you won't enter Dr. Moreau's world.
B) Don't Call Them Cats
Let's go back to Avatar for a moment. When the first screenshots of Avatar were released, the Internet ripped into them. Half of the comments were Smurf jokes and the other half were about how they looked like cat people.
Because they do. But when the movie came out, people loved it. It broke every box office record, and people stopped going on about cat faces and Smurfs. Why?
Because while the Na'vi were clearly cat-based, no one said as much in the movie. It wasn't like the story of Pandora was that once upon a time a zoo ship crash-landed and the crew was forced to repopulate the empty planet with the help of the pumas in the cargo hold.
Now compare that to the Thundercats. Every character is named after a type of cat (Lion-o, Panthro, Tygra, Cheetara). The characters in Avatar just pretended like they didn't even know cats existed, and with all the other stuff going on, it was easy for the audience to forget too, beyond noticing that the characters were graceful, quick, athletic and beautiful. You got the aesthetic of a cat-like creature without calling the movie Avatar: Planet of the Noble Cat Warriors.
Hell, maybe James Cameron just accidentally made them look like cats, like George Lucas keeps accidentally making aliens talk like stereotypes of various Earth ethnic groups. Maybe he was just trying to make an improved version of humans, and accidentally wound up in the same place.
Either way, why don't we just declare Avatar to be the pinnacle of human/cat hybridization and let it stop there? After all, look at this guy:
That is an adorable, stupid kitten without a brain in its head, and it's perfect the way it is. Let's end this weird-ass compulsion to merge them with us, before genetic scientists start getting weird ideas. You don't want your grandchildren to walk down the streets 100 years from now and see this:

Like so many euphemisms, "primary care" has become either meaningless or pejorative. The obstetrician-gynecologist, family physician, internist, emergency room physician, nurse practitioner, and pediatrician, all have claimed the term or have had the epithet hurled at them. The denigrative use of the concept by some of the contributors to this volume is evident. However, there are several contributions where the term is used as a professional accolade.
Special notice and commendation must be given to Irving Polayes' "Fingertip Injuries" as well as to Anthony Reading's "Dealing With Alcoholism in Office Practice." Both authors are lucid and informative. Polayes presents a reasonably detailed analysis of common digital trauma and discusses the rationale of surgical repair, with a concern for function and cosmesis. (Twenty photographs and one drawing illustrate his examples.) In quite a different style, Reading's essay emphasizes the patient-physician relationship and warns of pitfalls in the treatment of the alcoholic.

A belated Happy Mother's Day to all mothers, Jewish or not, who are raising Jewish kids!
And so as not to seem parochial, I will also add a belated Happy Mother's Day to all mothers, regardless of what religion they are raising their children in, with the exception of monstrous child abusers like this family profiled in today's New York Times.
Sorry for that very disturbing caveat, but I can't get that story out of my head, even as I acknowledge that the overwhelming majority of moms out there, while all imperfect (except for me, ha ha), are doing amazing and very challenging work.
I won't bore you with the details of my own Mother's Day, except to say that we got to participate in a very inspiring family education program for Ellie's second-grade Hebrew school class, enjoy the beauty of Forest Hills Gardens on a perfect spring day, watch my kids be entranced by picking dandelions and blowing wishes on them and eat an incredible vegetarian Middle Eastern lunch. Plus, the girls channeled their sibling rivalry into a Mothers Day present-making competition, which means I have amassed an enormous collection of pipe-cleaner jewelry, origami frogs and tissue-paper flowers now. (Oops, I guess I did bore you with all the details.)
Getting back to the topic of non-Jewish moms raising Jewish children — and segueing from there to non-Jews (and mostly women at that) engaging with Jewish culture — I hereby direct your attention to a marvelous article by my colleague Steve Lipman on a Passover seder he conducted this year in Poznan, Poland.
Steve was impressed by the many gentiles in attendance, most of them students in the Hebrew Language Studies program at Poznan's Adam Mickiewicz University and most of them better versed in Hebrew and Jewish tradition than the Jewish participants:
Why are they studying Hebrew?
They were at a loss to say. Not for a career, because Hebrew fluency doesn't lead to employment in Poland. Not because of Jewish boyfriends, because there are few Jews to meet here.
"We're just interested," one student offered.
Why are the Hebrew classes 90 percent female?
"Because we're more ambitious" than the guys, one young lady explained.
While a regular comment-er to this site will no doubt insist, as she always does, that I'm writing about this because I think that gentile women are better than Jewish women (I don't), I promise that is not my point. I am just saying that all sorts of people are drawn to Judaism and Jewish life, and that it is a good thing when we welcome, rather than discourage them.

Nice sentiments but only Jewish women can give birth to and raise Jewish children. No amount of p.c. pro-intermarriage propaganda can change that fact.
Well, if we "sink into a sea of humanity" because the rest of humanity learns Hebrew and converts to Judaism, then I'd have to say that wouldn't be a bad thing. I don't see how remaining a minority is better than having everyone else join us.
Not that I think Julie is suggesting we will "sink into a sea of humanity" in either case; that's just Anonymous completely misinterpreting Julie's words and going over the top. Again.
Come on Julie, why is it that "I am just saying that all sorts of people are drawn to Judaism and Jewish life, and that it is a good thing when we welcome, rather than discourage them."
It is a good thing for whom? For the Jewish people to disappear and be absorbed slowly but surely by the host culture -- even while the a few members of the host culture will go all multi-cultural on us and learn a few phrases in Hebrew?
We have been around for 3000 years mostly trying to navigate the experience of being a minority in a variety of dominate host cultures. But without trying to maintain our uniqueness, we will sink into the sea of humanity.
But I guess, in the end, that really is what you seem to advocate. Is that what you really want?

Everyone who is in the market for a truly unique and historic piece of jewelry ought to look into buying pieces made out of the Gibeon meteorite, which fell and crashed to the Earth in prehistoric times. It really began as a planet, then became an asteroid that floated about in space for billions of years before exploding onto African soil. The natives who lived near a tiny town called Gibeon, where bits of fragments landed, in fact utilized bits and pieces of the meteorite to construct tools.
The Gibeon meteorite is primarily made up of a combination of iron and nickel, producing jewelry extremely stable and powerful. To produce jewelry pieces, the meteorite is cut, forged and fabricated into the desired shape. Since iron and nickel are each silvery-white metals, the jewelry pieces are also silvery-white. Nonetheless, Meteorite Jewelry can be combined with other precious metals to add more contrast. For example, yellow or rose gold might be employed for the lining and rails of Meteorite rings to give them a two-tone impact. Individual pieces of jewelry may be given a brushed, matte or polished finish, and set with precious gemstones, for even more diversity. To further improve the value of pieces like meteorite rings, add an 18k gold or platinum lining.
One of the factors that meteorite jewelry is so exclusive and lovely is due to the crystalline Widmanstatten patterns, which are cross-hatches of lines. To bring forth and further boost the patterns, jewelers use a approach of etching the metal having a remedy of diluted nitric acid. Given that these lines had been formed over millions of years as the asteroid was traversing all through space and cooling, each pattern is one-of-a-kind. Yet another factor that has an influence on the look will be the strategy by which the meteorite is handled, as well as the selection method. Consequently, some pieces will have far more distinct Widmanstatten patterns than others. Pendant necklaces, with their flat, thin surfaces, really showcase the extraordinary Widmanstatten patterns.
However, there is now a prohibition, enacted by the African government, on the exportation of meteorite fragments, thus generating them harder to obtain. Nevertheless, the great news is that the material will inevitably escalate in value. No matter whether it is a ring, necklace, earrings or bracelet, jewelry created from the Gibeon meteorite is not only stunning and distinct, but it is also one thing that will be passed down via the generations.

Read an Excerpt
When Ellie Lee stretched and opened her eyes, she found herself staring straight into Robby Robriquet's baby blues. They captivated her gaze, warmed her insides, then continued holding her attention as surely as his arms had held her the previous night. "How long have you been watching me?" she croaked sleepily.
"All my life."
"Impossible. You were born first."
"All your life," he corrected.
Shifting her gaze, she let it drift down a hard, muscular bare chest coated with wild, tangled raven hair. She eyed the sheet wound around his torso, then returned her attention to his face, her lips parting in frank appreciation of his heart-stopping good looks.
Damn, she thought. They just didn't make many studs like Robby, especially not around Banner, Mississippi. He had a strong, Romanesque nose, unusually full lips, a face so sculpted that it could have been crafted from marble. His eyes were as piercing as the rays of a hot sun, as blue as a summer sky, and as deep as an ocean.
She had blue eyes, also, and dark hair, just as he, and if the truth be told, she'd started dreaming years ago about how cute their babies would look. She'd had a crush on Robby since she'd first laid eyes on him, when she was twelve years old, but only in the past year, since he'd finished his M.B.A. and returned to Banner, had he finally realized she'd turned into a woman.
So much for all the heartbreak years ago. Countless times, she'd put on sexy hot pants and halter tops, hoping to wow him if he came to the Lees' house to visit her middle brother, Cordy, often with J. D. Johnson in tow. Ellie's best friend, Susannah, had been just as lovesick, but J.D. had been her focus. The two girls had triedeverything to get the boys' attention, whether getting stuck while climbing trees, or shrieking like banshees while practicing gymnastics in the yard.
Nothing had seemed to work. The boys would run off, to hunt or fish, totally oblivious. Everything was different now, though. J.D. and Susannah had been married for six years. And exactly six months ago, Robby had dragged Ellie to bed, acting as proprietary as a caveman. Ever since, they'd managed to meet at every possible moment, despite hectic schedules.
That was the other great thing about Robby, she thought, still eyeing him. He worked even harder than she, a trait she'd never found in another man. In fact, she thought Robby worked too hard, something she'd previously never guessed she could see as a flaw in another human being. But how could she help it? Business was important, but she wanted Robby in bed all the time, too, and because he always said he had to work, it could be downright maddening.
Yes, now she understood all the young men she'd discarded during her own college years. Often they'd complain, calling her a workaholic, but now .
Robby was gazing at her bare breasts, his dazed eyes darkening with lust. "Hey, gorgeous," she whispered. "I think I'm reading your mind."
"What? Like Mama Ambrosia?"
Mama Ambrosia was a local fortune-teller. Ellie shook her head. Lifting her hands, she squeezed his shoulders, drawing him closer, enjoying the warmth and smoothness of his skin. "No. What I see in your thoughts is far too suggestive for a stranger's clairvoyant eyes, even a professional's."
He glanced at the clock, his glistening teeth flashing as he smiled. "Well, sweetheart," he drawled, "I figure we've got time for a quickie before we get to work and have to pretend we're only colleagues."
"You've been a bad boy on the job," she returned, stroking his pectorals with a fingernail.
He was all innocence. "Bad?"
"A hand up my skirt during a meeting. Pinching my butt at the water cooler. A box of condoms appearing magically in my purse," she enumerated.
"That wasn't me," he defended. "That was the condom fairy." She smiled. "If we don't tell my father about our affair soon," she said, dragging his mouth down for a quick, wet kiss, "he's going to guess." Her father, otherwise known as Daddy Eddie, was the owner of Lee Polls, a century-old family-run polling company for which both she and Robby worked.
"Then we'd better hurry and have sex, so you'll have time to run home, change and do something about your mussed hair."
She smirked. "You really are a workaholic. It's Saturday."
"And I've got to work, anyway."
Frowning, she considered. She loved Robby, she really did, but she was beginning to wonder if he'd ever feel completely comfortable in his own skin. He'd been so young when he'd lost his mother, only three, and he scarcely remembered her. Worse, his dad, Charlie, had seemed to go off the deep end after the loss, taking up drinking and gambling. At least, that was the story around town.
He'd been in prison for years now, for manslaughter. Even before that, Charlie had embarrassed his son. Nightly, he could be found spending his paycheck at a local watering hole called the Night Rider, running up a tab, then going further into debt by placing bets with a man suspected of being the town bookie, Max Sweeney. Sheriff Kemp had often looked the other way, just to spare Robby, who, from an early age, had so often dragged his dad out of the bar and home for the night.
Manslaughter had been too much to overlook, though. And while Ellie was glad her own father, Daddy Eddie, had intervened and offered Robby a job at Lee Polls after high school, her heart had broken when she'd seen just how hard Robby had worked, losing too much sleep, not to mention nights and weekends, always sweating the smallest details.
His determination had earned Daddy Eddie's trust, and he'd often claimed Robby was more valuable than all his own sons combined. Not that Ellie's ne'er-do-well brothers had minded, not even when Daddy Eddie had sent Robby to college and graduate school. Robby had worked odd jobs, too, not wanting to take charity and trying to make clear he was pulling himself up by the bootstraps. Now, no matter how successful he became, Robby seemed to think he owed Daddy Eddie something, which he didn't.
Yes, that was the problem. Robby idolized her dad, since Daddy Eddie was the exact opposite of what Robby's had been, but it was sure putting a damper on romance. Robby feared Daddy Eddie's reactiondespite all that he'd achieved, was he good enough for the man's only daughter?
Robby had turned out to be loyal and hardworking, whereas every one of Daddy Eddie's sonsGil, Cordy and Kylewas worthless when it came to running Lee Polls. They preferred to hunt, fish, play golf and chase women. So, although it was a family business, Ellie and Robby, who reported directly to Daddy Eddie, did most of the work.
"You're really going into the office?" she asked.
"You're not?"
"Only after I meet Susannah for breakfast." Saturday breakfast was usually set aside for her best friend.
Robby's voice was low, sexy. "Then we'd better get a move on. Kiss me, baby."
She wiggled her eyebrows as he pushed a lock of hair away from her eyes. "Where?"
"Here." Leaning, he gingerly toyed with her breast, brushing the gold charm that hung from a chain around her neck. Engraved on the metal were the words Remember the Time. She and Susannah had the matching necklaces made years ago, and both still wore them always.
Robby palmed a breast, bending and roughening the sensitive skin with his chin stubble before flicking a tongue across the nipple, sending a shock of longing to her core. Her hips arched, her chin tilted back and for a moment, she simply got lost in the pleasure. Easy enough, as both hands found her, pushing her breasts upward from beneath. As he squeezed hard, her mind spun dizzily, her nipples tightening further, straining for the touch.
Throatily, she whispered, "I thought I was supposed to kiss you, not the other way around."
He merely locked his lip to a bud and kept suckling, the silken wetness making her shiver. With a sigh, she pressed her thighs together tightly, as if to hold in the delicious sensations he was soliciting. Soon, he'd be on top of her, she knew. Or she'd be on top of him. And then
He blew on the flesh he'd just dampened, then caught a nipple and rolled it between his fingers, causing goose bumps of anticipation to rise all over her skin. "Oh, Robby "
"Nothing." But she wanted to say she could come from nothing more than this kind of sweet teasing. She gasped as his huge, warm hand slid downward, over her ribs, then her belly. Arrowing his fingertips, he urged apart her smooth thighs as his mouth found her neck. He was all tongue nowstroking the column beneath her chin as she shifted her weight and let him untangle her legs.
"Wider," he drawled softly.
Was this really happening? she wondered vaguely as she gave him increased access. Was she really sharing a bed with the heartthrob of her adolescent years? It had become clear the relationship was headed for so much more. Already, they were in serious terrain. Inseparable and intense, their lives completely intertwined.
A soft senseless murmur escaped her lips as his fingers grasped her curls, toying with them. He tugged playfully, then a slick finger slid open her lower lips completely, and she could only suck another breath through clenched teeth as he circled the nub of her clitoris. "You're so good " she whispered. "But it could be better "
His voice was catching now, and the one word was nearly lost in his throat, since his breath was quickening. Yes, she thought hazily, as he probed where she was growing so slick and damp for him. As he thrust a finger inside, testing the moist heat, preparing her, she arched once more, turning in his arms, her nipples peaking, becoming painfully taut, every fiber of her being craving his mouth once more.
Instinctively, her hand rose, threading in his hair, her heart stuttering as the wild, bed-tossed strands of jet-black ran through her fingers feeling like water. As he pushed another finger inside her, she gasped, her fist tightening, closing around the wisps of his hair, pulling his face closer so her mouth could brush his. Electrifying, she thought. Heavenly.
Then for another moment, she shut her eyes. Sensations cascaded over her like a waterfall. Tension built, climbing, threatening to shatter. When she opened her eyes again, he was watching her, his blue eyes as warm as summer, his smile inviting. "Feels good, huh?"
His hairy chest slowly rising and falling with the pace of his increasing breath. "Yeah," she whispered as he visibly shuddered, then slid a finger from inside her and moved on top of her.
She loved him. That's all she could think as she looked into his eyes, her heart racing. But she had to get him to commit. She'd wanted him her whole life, and this past six months had been pure torture. Always, he'd been the only man for her. Sure, she'd fooled around at college, but no one could hold a candle to Robby. She wanted more .
"Honey," she began, her voice a soft drawl, her heart hammering harder as his legs fell between hers. She could feel the heat and power of his erection now, touching her through the sheet that had tangled between them.
He rested on an elbow, a hand beneath his cheek and flashed a bad-boy grin. "Yes, honey?"
"I want to ask you something."
"When are we going to tell my dad?"
"Tell him?"
"You know. About us."
They were at a crossroads. Daddy Eddie was retiring in just one more week, and he'd already told her he was naming her head of the company. President, she thought now, with a sigh of happiness. It was more than she'd dreamed possible. Robby aside, running Lee Polls had always been her dream, too. The venerable company had been housed in Banner since 1898, and a Lee had always been at the helm. Never a woman, of course.
Until now. That was mostly due to the fact that none of Ellie's brothers had possessed an interest in facts and figures, nor the knack for math that it took to analyze statistics. By contrast, Ellie could eat and breathe mathematics. And so, it had been she, not her male siblings, who had spent hours visiting her dad at work.
By age five, she'd picked out her own office, right next door to Daddy Eddie, and on her tenth birthday, he'd placed a gold plaque on the door, engraved with her name.
"How 'bout that, Ellie girl," her dad had said. "One day, all this really will be yours."
Now that same office was stacked high with statistical manuals and files of client information. Soon, as her father had always promised, that old plaque would come down and the new one would replace it. The one that said, "President."
"Daddy's retiring in a week," she suddenly whispered in a rush. "We don't have much time, Robby. I want him to know how things are between us."
Dammit, why was she so spineless? So closemouthed? Why couldn't she just say she really wanted to get married? After all, her best friend, Susannah, had been married for six years now, even if her and J.D.'s road had turned a little rocky. And yet even though she was a modern woman it wasn't really a woman's place to ask a man for his hand. Hell, she was going to be the president of a company by this time next week, but there were still some things in life a man had to do.
Besides, there was another uncomfortable fact, in that Robby was going to report to her. As macho as he was, she could only hope he wouldn't have trouble dealing with that. Certainly, they'd traded a lot of jokes about the possibility. And he didn't seem to mind
Why should he? she thought now. The company had been in her family for a century, and she'd grown up under the strict tutelage of her father. Oh, Robby was good, of course. Better than she at some aspects of the job, in fact. Maybe he was even completely on a par. But the bottom line remained. Having a Lee in the top spot was an unbroken tradition. "Really," she began again. "We need to talk to Daddy." She started to continue, but something in his eyes stopped her, and instead, she squinted and said, "What?"
"I I have something to ask you."
Her heart pounded against her ribs. He was going to ask her to marry him, she realized. Right now. In this very instant of time. Inadvertently, her lips parted and she breathed in deeply, bracing herself. She wanted to savor this moment, so she could remember it always. "Yes?"
"Would you mind terribly if "
Her cheeks heated, her heart bursting with feeling. He was such a guy. A man's man. Of course it wasn't easy for him to ask "If?" she encouraged.

The usenet newsreader slrn had had a major update t0 1.0.1 as of December 21st 2012 and I have updated the Community Docs page with instructions for building this latest version:
See you all on usenet :)
A quick note to slrn users: there is currently some confusion with the slrn website(s). The site I give in the wiki article:
Home of the slrn newsreader
is the one that I personally maintain for JED and it is up to date with details of the new version. There is another site which was formerly mirrored from the sourceforge site:
Home of the slrn newsreader
whose domain name has been recently purchased by somebody unattached to the slrn project. Unfortunately this site is somewhat out of date and does not contain information regarding the latest release. Hopefully this situation can be resolved soon...
A small update for the slrn page, looks like the instructions for compiling the latest release version failed as Ubuntu some time ago moved libslang files around. This should capture both 32 and 64bit:
Let me know of any problems with this one....Code:
./configure --with-slrnpull --enable-setgid-code --with-slang=/lib/*-linux-gnu
slrn fanatics with a Windows 8 VM may also be interested in some work I have just completed:
Compiling the git slrn under Windows 8
This not only gets slrn running under Windows but it has a good look at some parts of the slrn source which will benefit Ubuntu users as well. And it is a lot of fun as well :)
i really needed this for the x64 bits platform.
I no longer run slrn under Ubuntu but keen Usenet followers will be interested to hear that JED has released slrn 1.0.2 on pretty close to the 20th anniversary of slrn. The announcement has a nice acknowledgement of yours truly which was deeply appreciated...
Maybe see some of you on news.software.readers or alt.os.linux.ubuntu? I have cut back my Usenet time as Usenet slowly dies but there is still some life there :).

The federal estate tax has been repealed for 2010. While everyone expects Congress to take action before this year is over, if it does not, there will be no federal estate tax or generation-skipping transfer tax on the estate of any individual who dies in 2010. The federal gift tax remains generally unchanged, although the maximum rate decreases from 45% to 35%.
This period of uncertainty may be the opportune time for you to review your estate planning documents with your legal counsel.
Please advise the College if you have included Hamilton in your estate plan or completed a planned gift so you can be honored and recognized as a Joel Bristol Associate.

Germany: Pamphlet advises gay football players to come out 'quietly'
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Do they have a similar pamphlet advising black people to sit quietly at the back of the bus where they won't be seen?
Sitting at the back of the bus wasnt not advisory – failure would land you in jail. Noone will go to jail for coming out – loudly or sliently
'Ruhe gibt's genug nach dem Tod'
Gleich richtig
On one level i so love this but it is not enough to protect players.
It is all right for Chancellor Merkel to say they have nothing to fear but we gay people know differently. We have lived with the consequences.
First Germany must stand proud and Chancellor Merkel introduce Equality legislation and sell it to everyone properly as Equality. She must believe it herself.
Then good German business must come together and approve gay Equality and advertise it.
Then the churches must be tackled and the past dealt with and the future highlighted as the way forward
Then footballers, sportsmen and women and everyone else can hold their own coming out which is traumatic for many especially if you are in the public eye.
Chancellor Merkel it is in your hands…please take this forward for all society and as your part in modernising this planet.
God this is awful. Germany has had enough of laws aimed at changing the way people think. If your nation has a social problem, address it socially, if it has a problem with coercion, then you may wish to consider a legislative response.
I guess the jews will be fine too then…
Godwin's Law strikes again.
You Commander Thor are a dirty xenophobe.
Don't mention the war!!!!! Seriously, the Germans are now the cultured, sophisticated and gentle people they were before the horrors of WW1, the Versailles treaty, hyperinflation and the Great Depression combined to induce temporary madness.
This reeks of that old "Do what you have to do behind closed doors but don't you dare make a fuss about it" mentality
Come out quietly or what?

F.E.A.R. 3 Contractions multiplayer trailer the nastiest one yet
Another of F.E.A.R. 3's unusual multiplayer modes is detailed in this latest trailer.
It's called Contractions, but thankfully, isn't as frightening as, like, birth. No, instead, your squad is trapped in an increasingly smaller arena as thick fog progressively swallows the battlefield.
Of course, blasting monsters eases the terror a little bit – bit stick together, you glory hogs, because there's something even worse wandering the mists.
Don't look at this if you are underage or whatever.
F.E.A.R. 3 is due on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in late June.
Thanks, Blue.

Irish Noir Saturday 5 October 2013
Irish Noir is the story of Irish Crime fiction. From its gothic origins, through the fast paced storylines provided by Celtic Tiger excess – and right up to the bleak fictional landscape inspired by Austerity Ireland
In the last 15 years, Irish crime writing has experienced a renaissance in popularity comparable to the Scandinavian and Scottish crime writing scenes. But before that, Irish crime writing was in the doldrums. Irish Noir is a major new four-part series presented by John Kelly, which will explore why it took so long for this popular genre to get a comfortable footing in this country. To what extent did politics and history play a part? And did the enormous success of Irish literary giants like Joyce and Beckett cloud the ambitions of writers who might have naturally had more hard-boiled aspirations...? In other words, did we turn our literary noses up at crime fiction?
This will be a must-listen series for all bookworms, featuring contributions from the biggest names in our country's crime writing scene – John Connolly, John Banville, Tana French, Declan Burke, Declan Hughes, Arlene Hunt, Alex Barclay, and Stuart Neville to name but a few...
Irish Noir was made in conjunction with the BAI's Sound and Vision fund. It starts on RTÉ Radio 1 at 7pm on Saturday September 14th.
This final part of Irish Noir considers what is next for Irish crime writing... Will Irish crime writers continue to find a broad readership with novels set in Ireland?

Geneva County, AL - Each Saturday this summer you can hit the farm trail in Geneva County for what growers call "real food."
Along Route 52, several small family owned farms are opening up so you can skip the middle man and buy directly from the farmer.
They offer everything from organic milk, fresh produce, canned and baked goods.
All of the farms on the trail use environmentally friendly and sustainable farming methods.
They say these are the freshest and highest quality goods you can get.
"It's a little bit different experience. You get to actually come to the farm. You get to see where your food is grown. It's even a little bit different than a farmer's market because you actually get to look at the produce in the field. It's fresh picked. It's more of an experience I guess," said Paula Hennig of Waterberry Farms.
The trail is open each Saturday through July from 8 a.m. – 2 p.m.
Farms on The Route 52 Farm Trail 2012:
