Gore Vidal Dead at 86
Owing to complications from pneumonia.
Gore Vidal, the prolific writer, essayist, and commentator, passed away on Tuesday at his home in the Hollywood Hills, according to the L.A. Times. His nephew Burr Steers says he died owing to complications from pneumonia.
Few people have had careers as long and varied as Vidal's. In addition to hundreds of essays, he penned best-selling novels including Lincoln and Myra Breckenridge. His book The City and the Pillar was one of the first novels to feature openly gay characters, causing major controversy when it was released in 1948. Vidal also wrote plays, films, TV series, and Broadway hits. The revival of his play The Best Man is currently running on Broadway and was nominated for two Tonys. When he wasn't writing, Vidal managed to find time to act in a handful of films and make two unsuccessful attempts at a political career, running for the House of Representatives in New York and for Senate in California.
Vidal hobnobbed with some of the biggest celebrities of the last century, ranging from Tennessee Williams to Frank Sinatra to Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis (who happened to be his relative).* As a frequent talk-show pundit, he famously feuded with William F. Buckley Jr. and Norman Mailer. His dispute with Buckley nearly came to blows, and the other actually did — Mailer allegedly head-butted Vidal before a 1971 TV show taping.
Vidal was one of the last writers to become a fixture in the national consciousness thanks to his ideas, wit, and personality. As he once said of himself, "I am at heart a propagandist, a tremendous hater, a tiresome nag, complacently positive that there is no human problem which could not be solved if people would simply do as I advise."
* A previous version of this post mistakenly said Al Gore was related to Gore Vidal. We regret the error, though it happens to the best of us.

A teenage boy is in a serious condition in hospital after he
was set alight by two males in a "cowardly and despicable"
attack, Adelaide police say.
The 17-year-old was sitting with a friend in the garage of
his family home at Munno Para West at about 11.30pm (ACDT) on
Other friends had left to go to the shop when two males
walked in throwing flammable liquid on the youth and setting
it alight.
Detective Chief Inspector Tony Crameri says the teenager was
able to get into the shower with the help of his parents to
put out the flames.
The youth also was lucky to have ambulance officers respond
quickly, he added.
He was taken to the Royal Adelaide hospital with serious but
non-life threatening injuries, with burns to his face, arms,
back and neck.
Describing the attack as "cowardly and despicable", Det
Crameri said police were still trying to work out a motive.
"We don't believe it was a random attack because targeting
the youth in the rear garage means they knew he would be
there," he said.
Police haven't yet been able to speak to the youth because of
his condition, but his friend who was present said he didn't
know the attackers.
Both attackers were wearing black pants - one wore a black
long-sleeved top and the other a white short-sleeved shirt
with blue, horizontal stripes.

To the Editor:
—Epigastric hernia is more common than the meager references to it would lead one to suppose. The reason is failure in diagnosis; for unless one is particularly on the lookout for it, one can easily miss it and attribute the symptoms to something totally different. Not every epigastric hernia will necessarily produce symptoms, but a small one may cause a wide variety simulating the condition set forth by Friedenwald and Morrison (The Journal, Oct. 30, 1926, p. 1466).During the last three years I have seen about a score of such cases. The diagnosis has been made in almost every case by a certain procedure of palpation and, if indicated, confirmed by laboratory and roentgen-ray tests, which, of course, were negative. A clue to the condition may often be obtained from the history, especially when the symptoms are associated with pain which has no relation to food

|Casualty: Series 2
|Released On: July 10, 2006
Region: 2
Production Company: BBC
One of the BBC's flagship dramas, Casualty depicts the lives of the patients, doctors, nurses and paramedics attending the frantically busy accident and emergency department of Holby General Hospital. Now approaching its twentieth year on television, this is where it all started: the hard-hitting politicised storylines; the accurate portrayal of life in the casualty department; and that theme tune.
At a time when medical dramas produced in the UK were thin-on-the ground, this was a truly ground-breaking show, often eclipsing equivalent programmes from the other side of the pond.

The City Mayors Code of Ethics
About us
Worldwide | Elections | North America | Latin America | Europe | Asia | Africa |
11 February 2016: The City Mayors Foundation was established in 2003 to promote, encourage and facilitate good local government. To strengthen local government further, City Mayors has instituted a Code of Ethics for city leaders who wish to perform their duties beyond all reproach
Mayors with exceptional courage, compassion and competence sought for the 2016 World Mayor Prize
The 2016 World Mayor Prize and Commendations will be awarded to mayors who have accepted and successfully managed the challenges posed by migration but are also convinced of its longterm benefits. They will be leading a city where past and/or more recent immigrants have contributed to the city's society, economy and culture. The City Mayors Foundation will also consider mayors for the honours whose communities has shown exceptional resilience during the recent arrivals from disaster-torn regions of the world.
If you are convinced, like us, that the world's cities have greatly benefited from immigrants, whose perseverance in the face of hardship and often prejudice has created the civic societies that we value and enjoy today, we invite you to nominate a mayor for the 2016 World Mayor Prize.
At a time when there are some 60 million refugees worldwide, mayors to be considered for the World Mayor honours will need to have shown exceptional compassion, courage and competence. Compassion for people who have travelled great distances to find safety. Courage to fight prejudice even in the face of unpopularity. Competence to leverage the value and potential each person offers society.
By taking part in this year's World Mayor Project you are also voicing your support for all those cities that have had to bear the brunt of the recent influx of migrants and refugees.
Previous winners and runners-up include the mayors of Calgary, Ghent, Bilbao, Perth, Mexico City, Oklahoma City, Cape Town, Zurich, Melbourne, Amsterdam, Athens, Mississauga and Tirana. The World Mayor Project aims to show what outstanding mayors can achieve and raise their profiles nationally and internationally.

I like Bunce and when he's impartial, I think he's one of the few good pundits we have. I respect his opinion a lot but there are so many others who add absolutely nothing. The guy who is in the studio with Bunce right now, Mark Prince, adds nothing. He seems bored, so not only does he not have a good personality for TV, I also don't think he knows what he's on about. The fact he was a successful boxer doesn't mean he's knowledgeable. The Sky team are terrible too. Johnny Nelson, Barry McGuigan and Glenn McCrory all make for poor pundits and never come out with any interesting insight and instead, they stick to the same tire old cliches I've heard thousands of times.
These people all seem ignorant about the sport. I come on to ESB and I read comments from posters like Flea Man or Mandanda, and I put far more stock into their opinions than those of the Sky or BoxNation team. I'm being 100% serious when I say that quite a few of the posters on here are more knowledgeable about the current world boxing scene than
pundit on TV.
It seems that every fight is ruined by **** commentary and the pundits are even worse. Guys like Bob Mee and Tris Dixon should be given more time on TV. They actually know what they're talking about. The only former boxer who I think is a good pundit is Jamie Moore. The rest all talk a load of ****.
Well said. There are potentially dozens of posters in the British and classic forums who would provide better insight than we usually have to watch on TV. Mostly we have to listen to guys that are either out of touch with modern boxing, obviously biased for or against certain fighters or, in many cases, only on TV because of their own careers
If a pundit is brought in who is known to be biased it has to be somebody with the profile of David Haye or Lennox Lewis. Otherwise the general public won't know them anyway and you may aswell just go with somebody objective who knows what they're talking about

City Mysterious Inflatable Red Spools
posted by July 9 at 14:44 PMon
A week or so ago, I noticed a giant inflatable spool-type-thing atop B&O Espresso and wondered what the hell it meant. I'm not the only one, apparently, as I just received this email from my friend Claire who is, clearly, a genius:
I have a mission for you. What the hell is up with these inflatable red spools that are showing up on top of certain businesses around town???? I first noticed one on top of the B&O, then on that weird coffee shop/post office in Ballard, and now there's one on top of 22 Doors. I don't know what they are, other than indicators of mediocre restaurants that somehow manage to get a free pass to stay in business
Anyone know?

Apocalypse Soon
From the Q&A following Bush's speech in Cleveland today:
QUESTION: Thank you for coming to Cleveland, Mr. President, and to the City Club.
My question is that author and former Nixon administration official Kevin Phillips in his latest book, "American Theocracy," discusses what has been called radical Christianity and its growing involvement into government and politics. He makes the point that members of your administration have reached out to prophetic Christians who see the war in Iraq and the rise of terrorism as signs of the Apocalypse.
Do you believe this, that the war in Iraq and the rise of terrorism are signs of the Apocalypse?
And if not, why not?
BUSH: Hmmm.
BUSH: The answer is I haven't really thought of it that way.

We had a lovely stay here the hosts were very welcoming and helpful. We even went on a Favela tour with one of the hosts which was great and very informative. I felt very safe here and it's in a perfect location if you want to be close to Lapa. The Seleron steps are a 5 minute walk away. I would recommend this hostel if you are looking for a relaxed, easy environment.

Jacobs Ladder Job Center, Inc.
Rating: 4.87 stars 45 45 reviews
2304 The Plaza (West Campus - 2201 Caronia St, 28208) Charlotte NC 28205 USA
Focusing on the age-old principle of offering a hand up rather than a handout, the mission of Jacob''s Ladder Job Center, Inc. is to help the unemployed and underemployed find and keep living wage jobs. Our goal is to help disadvantaged people achieve economic self-sufficiency and improve the quality of their lives.
Jacob's Ladder is a free, four-step job readiness program. Our approach to helping our clients become self-sufficient stresses partnerships with community agencies and local businesses. We are not a job placement center. We concentrate on teaching acceptable work ethics and coaching clients in the "soft skills" of job readiness and job retention. In our first 12 years, we have served approximately 4,000 clients with 2,000 securing full-time work. Several hundred more achieved part-time employment to build reliable work histories.
Direct beneficiaries per year:
Geographic areas served:
Charlotte, NC Mecklenburg County and surrounding areas
Jacob's Ladder Job Center runs a four-step program that teaches clients such skills as resume writing, dressing for success and interviewing techniques. After a client has completed the four steps, we provide them with lists of openings from employers we have recruited to hire our clients. We also provide mentoring while on the job and access to a professional dress clothing closet.
• We pair clients with trained volunteers
to determine their needs, practice
interviewing, and prepare résumés.
• We teach clients to research employers,
create a personal job search plan, and
update the plan weekly.
• We provide bus passes or gas
vouchers for clients to get to
interviews and first weeks on the job.
• We provide free business dress to
clients who need it for interviewing
and first days of employment.
• We connect participants with local
agencies to address childcare, housing,
hunger, and medical needs.
• We support newly employed clients to
ensure job success and retention.
• We network with employers with
entry- and mid-level jobs, including
those who are willing to hire
individuals with criminal backgrounds
and/or limited work histories.
• We advocate for full-time work at
living wages with employer benefits.

I have been a participant in Jacob's Ladder program since January 4, 2010 through the Department of Social Services. Before entering the program, my social worker gave me great reviews on the Jacob's Ladder program. Being a part of the program has been one of the best experiences of my life. All of the staff and volunteers live and breathe the mission of the organization. Each day since I've started the program, I feel that I have learned a new technique or life lesson. Upon completion of this wonderful program, I have every intention of paying forward the knowledge that I have gained here.
More Feedback
The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...
eager to help in any way possible. Each person offered something different. They offered their time and experience to help the client obtain employment. There was not a time that I asked a question without it being answered

Quotes from participants: I improved my writing skills tremendously. I finally learned how to fill out applications correctly and completely. I know how to write a cover letter and get why thank you notes are so important. I learned how to listen and remain calm during the interview. I've been to every program out there and you guys are the first ones to stay on me until I mastered the application and interview skills. I gained confidence during my presentations to classmates. Before I started I had no idea how to use the computer and now I can apply for online jobs and I know how to work with Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. At first I did not want to be here at all, I thought blah just another program, but I learned more than I could have ever imagined this month. My classmates and teachers believed in me when I didn't believe in myself and that gave me hope to keep working hard to find my job.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

However, some enterprising stores print up fake Intel boxes, to put the OEM chips into. That way they can charge full price and pocket the savings that should have been yours. You have been warned.

Just like it sounds, it is a mouse with a vaguely pistol like grip, and rather uniquely placed buttons. At first glance it seems built to satisfy those gamers who feel a joystick is the best way to control and FPS, but Digit Life's testing show that this mouse may garner a bit more attention.

The first few images for a series of RPG characters, questioning it all.
These little signs adorn the meeting room doors of Redbubble's Melbourne HQ. We had them printed on foamcore, with the foreground trees and objects stuck on as separate pieces to give a sweet layered effect. "Alpha" had parts cut out instead.
Hustle and Scout, Canberra's seasonal fashion market, is going from strength to strength! H&S has me illustrate their mascots for each round of promotional materials and signage/merch.

I've been drawing contributor profiles for the National Portrait Gallery's 'Portrait' magazine since the end of 2011. Each edition we go with a slightly different style. They're always interesting people and I really enjoy the challenge of bringing them together as a group each time!
The National Gallery of Australia hosted a massive exhibition over the end of 2013, 'Gold and the Incas'. It showcased hundreds of beautiful metal, ceramic and textile pieces from ancient Peru.
As a companion piece for kids, Jane Glasson, Suzie Campbell and I created a hardcover illustrated book, "I went with my Granny to a Place Called Peru". It features a pair of intrepid travellers and their discoveries all over the country. These are just a few of my favourite bits and pieces.
Will and Kate and baby George visited Australia in April 2014, and made a stop at the National Portrait Gallery in Canberra. We made a handy map/brochure to commemorate the event and encourage visitors to see what the royals checked out.
We opted for a slightly retro memorabilia feel, which was a lot of fun. We created 'Marty" the friendly sniffer dog as a guide throughout the brochure, referencing the fact the gallery had real bomb dogs doing the rounds! These are just a couple images from the front.
Some birdies I drew for Redbubble's baby clothes swing tag. It's a little postcard included with every order.
Full page portrait of Mr Phoenix from "Her" for Portrait magazine's feature on AI. Drawn from a movie still.
I had the pleasure of working with the lovely folks at TOMS to create over 50 portraits. Each is a founder of an entrepreneurial organisation they've partnered with in their new 'Marketplace' endeavour. The portraits are part of the brand info pages and we aimed for a friendly, clean look with muted tones. You can find out about the awesome Marketplace right here: http://toms.com/marketplace

I've read a bunch in here about being able to install the WordPress core files into a custom subdirectory ("Giving WordPress its own Directory"). That is not what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to entirely install WordPress into its own subdirectory with no relation to the actual root of the domain.
In my case, I have no control over the domain root, and cannot edit an .htaccess file there. It's set up like this:
I have it working fine on the public side for the most part, but the Admin console does weird things like redirecting to the domain root when I edit settings and click Save. Also, there are several WP functions (such as "Older/Newer Posts") that render links to "/" rather than relative to the current directory.
From what I've read here and elsewhere, it seems I'm not going to be able to get this to work. I just wanted to check if anyone else has tried to do this and has any ideas.
I love WordPress. Thanks!

Q: My spouse insists that I invite a particular couple to our summer barbecue, yet again. They've been to our house many times in the past five years, and they have never reciprocated. Not once! So I have to ask: Is there a statute of limitations on a person's hospitality?
A: Be honest: Do you really want to go to their house because you want to hang, break bread, and play Pictionary with these people, or is it because you're keeping social score? I suspect you're quid pro quo–ing it, so just make your spouse happy and invite them every summer. Because, after all, it's more fun to barbecue than to stew.
— Faith Salie, host, public radio's Fair Game from PRI with Faith Salie
I understand the frustration of not receiving reciprocal invitations, but you should invite this couple to your barbecue because you want to spend time with them. Some people are not great at throwing parties. If you like their company, leave it at that.
— Rudy Rasmus, pastor of St. John's United Methodist Church in Houston

McGill is an international university, open to the world, located in one of the great cities in North America. Leading figures in every field from all over the globe come to McGill to give talks and to see the progress of our research. It's an exciting place to study.
There's always something happening on McGill's campus, whether in the Faculty of Law or beyond. Myriad clubs and activities, a full roster of visiting speakers and plenty of opportunities for community service promise enriching ways to spend time. Not that there's anything wrong with having a little fun along the way!
A diverse student body
We attract students from just about every province and territory in Canada; several Americans; and a handful of foreign students from as far away as Australia to Zimbabwe each year. Toss in 40-50 exchange students from leading law faculties around the world, and McGill's Faculty of Law offers a unique and multicultural environment that' s reflected in a range of student clubs and activities.
Support for first year students
We're extremely proud of the support we extend to all first-year law students:
- Faculty and upper-year students plan an extensive Orientation for incoming students with a range of social and academic events, activities, and sporting events to help get first-years meeting other students and profs in a casual environment.
- All first-year students are assigned to a 25-person legal methodology group, under the stewardship of two senior students working with a professor. Newcomers get their first exposure to legal research and writing while working closely with the same small group all year. This promotes the kind of personal connections that will extend far beyond the three to four years of law school, while giving first-years a pair of senior students to turn to for advice.
- First-years are also assigned a Law Partner through a mentoring program organized by the Law Students Association. Law partners answer questions, point out the best legal research tools, offer advice on elective courses, and buy the occasional drink for their protégé(e).
A voice in the Faculty
Students sit on all Faculty of Law committees as full voting members, including the hiring, admissions, curriculum, and equity committees, and on Faculty Council. Student perspectives are actively sought out by questionnaire or survey when the Faculty is considering any changes that would affect student life, and members of the Law Students Association executive meet regularly with the Dean, the Associate Dean (Academic)and the Assistant Dean (Student Life and Learning).
Student activities
It's certainly not all work, work, work at the Faculty - we're a hotbed of social, intellectual, and athletic fun too!
Quid Novi
The Faculty's in-house student weekly publishes rants, philosophical ramblings, poetry, and all manner of opinion. It's also the paper of record for publicizing upcoming events and keeping everyone posted on how the Faculty sports teams are doing against the medical school and the engineers.
Whether you're interested in volleyball, soccer, hockey, or inner tube water polo, the Faculty has an intramural team that could stand the extra help. "A" level teams know what they're doing, and competition for the championship mugs is fierce, but the "B" and "C" level teams are more social than skilled. Everyone needs to get out of the library once in a while. The Law Students Association organises the Malpractice Cup during Homecoming week, a sporting and trivia event that pits Law against Medicine, and there's also the annual Law Games, held at a different university each year. You can also join McGill Athletics.
Coffee House
Started in the 1980s when a couple of current profs were law students themselves, Coffee House has become the Faculty's Thursday afternoon tradition. It's a chance to relax, have a beer or a soda, talk to friends, and make plans for the weekend. Some Coffee Houses are sponsored by law firms, and others are fundraising venues for a worthy cause. Either way, it's the focal point of the week, a place where students can chat with professors and get to know one another outside the classroom.
Skit Nite
Every winter, students and professors spend weeks writing and rehearsing skits and songs spoofing courses, legal trends, and news items, culminating in a standing-room only evening of hilarity and levity in the runup to exams. Skit Nite raises over 20,000 dollars each year for five Montreal charities that aid battered women, hungry children, the homeless, and youth on the street, turning a fun night into a significant fundraising event for the greater community. (see some photos from the 2013 Skit Nite on our Facebook page)
Clubs and Associations
McGill's Faculty of Law's student body is one of the most active and dynamic in Canada. With dozens of highly active student clubs there's something for everyone.

The Navy SEALs get hundreds of applicants, but only a few acutally graduate. Their training starts of with a session called Indoc. This is when the pretenders are weeded out. As stated in Luttrell's book and in official US Navy literature the purpose for Indoc is, "To physically, mentally, and environmentally prepare qualified SEAL candidates to begin BUD/S training." During Indoc SEAL hopefuls have the idea of teamwork placed into every aspect of their lives. After the men go through Indoc they then move to BUD/S training. BUD/S stands for Basic Underwater Demolitions/ SEAL training. During this training if one of the men was to mess up they were told by their instructor to, "get wet and sandy." The man at fault would then run into the freezing cold water, lay down in it, and then roll around in the sand. Then they would have to continue training that way. At the end of BUD/S phase one the SEAL hopefuls have to go through the infamous "Hell Week". At the end of this week the men a physically exhausted. The men who make it through "Hell Week" are then secured as SEALs. After phase one the SEALs go through their training that will help them in the battlefield. Once this training is done they are full fledged SEALs.
Operation RedwingThis book centers on Operation Redwing in the war in Afghanistan. As previously explained a good portion of the book takes place in SEAL training. Operation Redwing was a plan by the Navy SEALs to eliminate a high ranking Taliban official. In the book he was referred to as Ben Sharmak, but he is really Mohamad Ismail. Operation Redwing was continually called off because Sharmak was always on the move. One day He finally stopped moving. The SEALs knew where he was. It was their time to strike. The four man SEAL team consisting of Danny Dietz, Matthew Axelson, Mike Murphy, and Marcus Luttrell was inserted into the Hindu Kush mountains by an MH-47 helicopter. The guys of SEAL team 10 had a weird feeling about this mission. They all thought that it was because of the terrain. Due to this apprehension all the men brought extra ammunition with them. Matthew Axelson and Marcus Luttrell were the snipers for this mission. Danny and and Mikey were the spotters. It took the team a long time to find a good place to make the shot on Sharmak in the nearby village. When they finally found their spot three Afghan goat herders walked up right behind them. The SEAL squad quickly subdued them and had them sit on a nearby log. They then discussed the goat herders' fate. They has two choices, one to execute them on the spot, or they could let them live. There were problems with both. If they killed them they could be tried for murder back in the US, and if they let them live the goatherders could give their position away to the Taliban. It was up to Marcus, and he let them live. These goat herders did tell the Taliban where the SEALs were. Soon they were fighting for their lives. The Taliban had the high ground, and they were trying to circle around the SEALs. Lt. Murphy realized this and decided that the only way to win this fight was to get down the mountain and onto flat ground. Them men retreated down the mountain. The gradient was so steep that each time they retreated they fell down the mountain. During the first fall Marcus lost all his medical gear and his rifle sling along with he helmet and many other things. Even though he had no way to hold onto his rifle during the falls his rifle always landed right next to him. Marcus saw this as an act of God. The squad's radio was also broken. This made calling for re-enforcements nearly impossible. The men of SEAL team 10 had been shot many times. Lt. Murphy was shot in the stomach in the beginning of the battle. Danny also took several hits in the back. Axe was hit many times as well. Even though they were battered the men kept fighting. After Danny could no longer stand from being shot so many times Marcus ran over to him to try and drag him to cover. As he did this Danny kept shooting. While Marcus was dragging Danny, Danny was shot one last time in the head. He was killed instantly. Lt. Murphy also sustained major wounds while he made a call on his cell phone to HQ for re-enforcements. Then Mikey charged up the hill and stood behind the cover of some rocks. He was then killed by the Taliban. Axe was shot a number of times. One bullet even hit him in the head. Marcus and Axe took cover behind a tree and were hit with an rocket propelled grenade (RPG) that sent both of them flying. It was later determined that Axe had not been killed from the blast. The Navy figured this out because his body was found hundreds of yards away from where the bast hit, and when Marcus was blown away by the blast Axe had three clips left for his pistol. When they found the body there was only one and a half left. Axe had kept fighting until the end.
SabrayMarcus was rescued by a Pashtun doctor from the village of Sabray. The Pashtuns are a strong warrior tribe that are usually allied with the Taliban. In this case they were not. One of their tribal laws is called lokhay warkawal. This law means that if they take someone into their home they a sworn to defend that person to the death. That is exactly what the village of Sabray did for Marcus Luttrell. Marcus was protected by a man named Gulab. They sheltered him until he was rescued by the Army Rangers six day after the original gun battle.
StyleMarcus Luttrell writes in a very casual way. His book is written in a very conversational tone. This helps the reader understand this book better. It also makes the reader feel as if they are listening to Luttrell talk about these events. Marcus has a very sophisticated vocabulary. There are rather large words used throughout the book. There is plenty of action in this book. The whole fight on the mountain takes up a lot of the book, and that part is very thrilling. Luttrell is very good at describing the scenery that the book is taking place in. Luttrell has a tendency to bring up major points many times because he really wants the reader to understand them. His major point is that there is much more that goes on in the world than the citizens of the US know because the media bends and twists things to seem like they are something else. Luttrell brings that up a whole lot in his book. The chapters were rather long, but the long chapters suited the book because so much stuff happened. The book was a good length at 388 pages.
Interview with Marcus on the Today Show
ReccomendationI would reccomend this book to anyone. It is a great eye opener to the war in Afghanistan and Iraq. The only thing that I might be wary of is that there is a fair amount of foul language in it. This comes out more in the fighting parts of the book though. Janice Harayda said, "Luttrell's memoir of this horrific
experience is part war story, part polemic against "the liberal media" and part Valentine to George W. Bush. As a war story, it is gripping, providing a rare soldier's-eye-view of a guerilla conflict. As a polemic, it is uneven. And as a Valentine to the president, it is likely to appeal only those who already support the administration." The New York Times said,"Along with the tragic story about how Mr. Luttrell lost his comrades, the book is spiked with unabashed braggadocio and patriotism, as well as several polemical passages lashing out at the "liberal media" for its role in sustaining military rules of engagement that prevent soldiers from killing unarmed civilians who may also be scouts or informers for terrorists. The book was embraced by many military buffs and conservatives. And the baby-faced Mr. Luttrell, with his commanding physical presence and soft-spoken delivery, made for an intriguing presence in his television interviews." All in all this was a great book. I really enjoyed reading it.

EL SOLARIO: "LA PAZ" La Paz Hotel Tip by swesn
La Paz Hotels: 43 reviews and 21 photos
- Very centrally located, on the street behind Church of San Francisco and within a stone's throw of the Mercado de Hechiceria, the touristy street of Calle Sagarnaga and Mercado Lanza for cheap juices and cheap lunch.
- Room is high-ceilinged and quite large, several beds to a room
- Water is adequately hot... very important here in La Paz.
- Located above a travel agency, so all your travel needs can be met easily.
- Computers for internet use are available
- Kitchen for use downstairs
- Laundry available
- Highly popular, so it is a great place to meet other backpackers but it can also mean it gets filled up very quickly
- Showers / toilets are unisex
- If you need them to store your luggage after you check out, note that they just dump all the backpacks (and there are MANY, considering the popularity of this hostel) into a storeroom. When you are ready to leave, you have to literally crawl in and take out the backpacks one by one to try and locate yours at the bottom of the pile. Any effort at this altitude is a huge effort.

text: 000 FXUS63 KGID 241028 AFDGID Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Hastings NE 528 AM CDT SUN JUL 24 2016 .SHORT TERM...(Today and tonight) Issued at 329 AM CDT Sun Jul 24 2016 The weather pattern has transitioned more zonal and more seasonal conditions are settling in early this morning. Temperatures and dewpoints are cooling behind a cold frontal boundary located from roughly KHJH to KGCK. The front will continue to advance south early this morning and a few showers and storms are possible ahead of the boundary which may skirt our southern zones for a time. A cooler, more seasonal airmass will settle across our region and temperatures will be more typical for this time of year with highs in the mid 80s to lower 90s. Conditions will be noticeably less humid as well with dewpoints in the 50s and 60s. Just not looking for much in the way of convection today once the boundary moves south of our area and surface high pressure builds in. Heading into tonight another round of convection is possible in the vicinity of the boundary to the south and along the high plains aided by upslope flow and this activity may affect portions of our southern zones. .LONG TERM...(Monday through Saturday) Issued at 329 AM CDT Sun Jul 24 2016 Primary forecast concern through the long term continue to lie with thunderstorm chances. Generally zonal flow in the upper levels is expected to be in place to start of the period Monday morning, as broad ridging sits over the desert SW/Rockies and a trough slides through the Great Lakes region. At the surface, a frontal boundary meandering around the area looks to be draped across northern/central KS, with mainly light easterly winds in place across the CWA. Could see some lingering precipitation across southern areas to start the day with a subtle wave moving through, but thinking most of the daytime hours will be dry. The east-southeasterly winds remain in place through the day, topping out around 10-15 MPH. Only made minor adjustments to the temp forecast, with highs expected to range from the mid 80s to low 90s. As we get into Monday night, seriously considered removing PoPs completely from the forecast. It`s roughly split down the middle between models keeping it dry/keeping precip chances in. Overall forcing is on the weak side and not really a notable surface boundary expected to be in the area. Capping doesn`t look to be as strong as the past several days, and some models show a weaker-end LLJ developing overnight. Decided that with a couple models still showing some scattered QPF around to keep 20 PoPs going. Tuesday/Tuesday night, models in good agreement with the overall picture, showing little change in the upper level pattern. Zonal/slight northwesterly flow expected to be in place, with the center of the upper high remaining over the desert SW. Precipitation chances are driven by the next upper level shortwave disturbance, and similar to Monday night, models vary with how much activity there ends up being during the daytime hour. While continue to carry some low PoPs during the day, thinking at this that most locations may end up being dry. The better chances come post 00Z and through the overnight hours, when activity that starts over western SD/NE slides southeast through the region. Carrying 30-50% chances across the CWA, with the higher values across the north-northeastern sections. Potential that stronger capping building in during this time frame will limit the overall coverage the further south you go, though not all models (like the NAM) show that being much of a factor. At this point, the potential for strong/severe weather looks to be a bit better through Tuesday night. MLCAPE values of 1500+ j/kg are possible (the NAM is quite a bit higher), and deeper layer shear looks to improve. Entire CWA has been included in the SPC Day 3 Marginal Risk outlook. Large hail/damaging winds would be the primary hazards...will insert mention in the HWO. Outside of the thunderstorm chances, southerly winds may be on the breezy side with speeds around 15 MPH. Temperatures expected to be a touch warmer than Monday, with highs forecast in the lower/mid 90s. Southern areas may see heat index values near 100 degrees. Wednesday through Saturday, the unsettled pattern looks to continue, and overall confidence in mainly preciptiation chances is pretty low. Northwesterly flow remains in place aloft, if anything becoming a touch more amplified with time as the high over the westerly CONUS builds. Periodic shortwave disturbances passing through will continue to bring chances for thunderstorms to the region, but because of timing/location differences between models, difficult to pin down a lot of details. PoPs remain in the 20-40% range. This pattern keeps the brunt of the warmest airmass to the west of our CWA, with highs through this time frame forecast to be in the 80s. && .AVIATION...(For the 12Z KGRI/KEAR TAFS through 12Z Monday morning) Issued at 526 AM CDT Sun Jul 24 2016 Vfr conditions are forecast through the taf period.

Does F# have a built in cube root function? I know I can use exponentiation to compute cuberoots but it won't type check in my case since I want to take the cuberoot of a quantity of type float and get a float.
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
I don't think there is a built-in function to calculate the cube root with units of measure (I assume it would be in the primitive operators module where
However, you can use exponentiation without units and wrap the unit-unsafe operation in a function that adds units, so you get function with correct units:
Note that F# does not support fractional units so you can write

'Do your worst' to Iran: ready for Hormuz-block
Washington has responded strongly to Iran's threats, declaring that any attempt to close the Strait of Hormuz is a "red line" that would "trigger a military response."
The US which has invested in military preparedness to keep the Strait open would respond, potentially joined by other countries," a Congressional Research Service report said. "Such a military response may or may not be limited to simply reopening the Strait for transit."
The US Fifth Fleet, based in Bahrain and tasked with securing the flow of oil, said that any disruption of traffic in the Strait will not be tolerated.
According to recent media reports, the US has bolstered its military presence in the region, moving a floating base for naval special forces into the Gulf, as well as four additional anti-mine ships. A senior Defence Department official told the New York Times that "The message to Iran is, 'Don't even think about it'.
In 2010, a directive by the US Secretary of Defence added another aircraft carrier to the Gulf where the US typically has kept only one carrier.

Learn about removing the ads from this memorial...
May 5, 1955
Mercer County
New Jersey, USA
May 31, 2012
Yolanda F. Bacon-Bonds, born May 5, 1955, went to attend her family reunion on the East Side of Heaven, 1 Pearly Gate Way, on May 31, 2012.
Born in Trenton, New Jersey to the late Jasper and Jennie Scott, she was one of six children and was predeceased by her brother, Sylvester 'Pepper' Jones and her first husband, Darrel Bacon.
Yolanda, known with love as 'NaNa' by her siblings, was educated in the Florence Township schools; Florence, NJ where she was raised and attended St. Paul's Baptist Church was baptized and sang in the youth choir.
She met and married her first love, Darrel E. Bacon in 1972 and moved to Evansville, Indiana and from this union they raised three loving sons.
In 2010 she met and married Mark Bonds a dedicated loving husband who cared for her with unconditional love. From this union Mark added his three children and they jokingly referred to themselves as the Brady Bunch.
Yolanda was a faithful and dedicated member of Nazarene Baptist Church for over 20 plus years and loved her church family immensely. She attended bible study, a member of the Nazarene Sanctuary Choir and celebrated the uplifting of Christ.
Employed at Deaconess Hospital, in Evansville for 35 years where she retired as a nurse's aide.
She was always ready with a smile and full of laughter, loved people, and was always helping others. She lived by the philosophy - family is more important than anything and nothing is stronger than blood. She worked hard at teaching her sons to stay together.
Remembering her in life is her husband, Mark; six children, Darrel II (Rosemary), Demetrius (Kim), Detroy (Lisa), Reniesha, RaShawnda and Mark, II; nine grandchildren, RaShawnda, Darian, Jordan, Danaiah, Darrel, III, Davinn, Davianne, RaShiya, and Lamarie; four siblings, Jasper (Maryetta), Milton (Yoko), Dianne (David), Carol (Wayne); two mothers-in-law, Jeanetta Bacon and Joan Talbott; a special aunt, Jackie; sisters-in-law, Debbie Jones, Terri Givens, Stephanie Momon, Jamesetta, Sharon, Valerie and Julie; and brothers-in-law, Larry (Kerry) Pope, Terry (Jovanne) Momon, and Bobby Weakley; a host of nieces and nephews; and a cadre of friends, especially Karen and Vicki.
Never one to complain about anything in life, we know that she is "the wind beneath our wings." She gave us this testimony: "I thank God for letting me bear this bitter cup. If not me, then who, and if not now, then when. I would rather it be me then my children. Blessed be the name of the Lord."
Funeral services will be held at 10 a.m. on Saturday, June 9, 2012, at Nazarene Church. Burial will follow in Sunset Memorial Park. Visitation will be from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Friday at Sunset Funeral Home.

Telemark Skiing now Officially Resort Skiing
It's official, telemark skiing is now just another way to slide downhill at your favorite resort, along with snowboarding, tubbing, fixed-heel alpine, or riding a cafeteria tray…
"Freeheel skiing is not just backcountry skiing anymore," says telemark skiing promoter and film maker Josh Murphy, "It used to be that people got into the sport because the gear was light and they wanted to access the backcountry. Now skiers try freeheel skiing and fall in love with it because the feeling is so unique. With modern skis, boots, and bindings it has become an exciting sport that is growing at resorts and in the backcountry." (From SkiPressWorld.com, link broken so removed.)
What Murphy fails to mention (besides tele gear now weighing a ton), is that telemarking is now hip. It's just plain stylish to be genuflecting down the slope where everyone can see you. Much of resort skiing has always been about style, so nothing wrong with that, but it is amusing that a sport started by granola crunching anti-corporate backcountry skiing furballs (myself included) has become a resort business. Who would have thought?

Your site is awesome, full of inspiring articles and very informative, thanks. I have added your link to my outdoor recreation blog. I live in Glenwood Springs and enjoy the natural resources in our back yard here in the valley. I would like to ski the back country more often but due to my fear of avalanches and inexperience I only ski slopes that are totally safe and offer little pitch. I love Aspen Highlands and usually ski the bowl for the steep back country experience it provides when there is fresh and untracked snow. I have also skied the back country access areas on Aspen and Snowmass. I really want to ski the Maroon Bowl back country access off the top of Highlands but the avalanche I witnessed a few years ago made me aware and scared to death of the possibilities, the whole bowl went…any safety tips or advice?
Got something to say? Please do so.

Zemer's Deli
o Address: 2916 Wolflin Ave.
o Phone: 806-513-2898
o Hours: 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Saturday
o Owner: Christina Taylor
o Fare: American sandwiches and salad, with vegetarian and vegan options
o Popular dishes: The Matthew salad, peaches & brie sandwich, the Cody sandwich
o Price range: $7.50 to $9.50
o Payment options: Cash, checks, credit and debit
Opening Zemer's Deli, a brightly appointed restaurant on Wolflin Avenue between Interstate 40 and Georgia Street, is the realization of a lifelong dream for owner Christina Taylor.
"I had been doing catering for the last five years, but most of my life I've wanted to do this," Taylor said.
But deciding to focus on sandwiches came much later.
"I had been catering at the ... Trinity Fellowship coffee shop, and I had so much fun with the sandwiches," Taylor said.
Since then, she has found and modified several recipes, including her best-seller, the peaches & brie sandwich, which features smoked turkey, sliced peaches, brie, spinach and red onion with honey Dijon mustard on a fresh-made French roll.
Though only open since June, Zemer's already has loyal customers like Dale and Caroline Smith, who eat there at least once every other week.
"I like the healthier fare," Caroline Smith said.
"They're just well-made," Dale Smith said. "It's a great local place, locally owned. Places like this are kind of a treasure."

I have deployed a test environment which has a root domain controller (test.gr) and three sub-domains - gr.test.gr, cy.test.gr and us.test.gr
After a few weeks, I tried to log on to the FRDC as the Domain Administrator and I was asked to change the password, which I did.
However, I want to disable the complexity policies for the administrator password in order to set the original password and keep it permanently.
Is there any way to do this? I tried from GPMC.msc but it seems that this influences the users complexity and not the domain admin's.

The principal claim of this carefully done study is that CTA and MRA miss too many cases of renal artery stenosis to be the tests of choice. The purpose of this commentary is to test this claim by translating the sensitivity and specificity into a term that clinicians can use for decision making: the likelihood ratio. Remember that the post-test odds equals the pretest odds times the likelihood ratio. The likelihood ratio, therefore, tells us how much a test result changes the odds of disease. The Table in this commentary shows likelihood ratios calculated from the authors' Table 3.

Athens and Shibboleth are access management services that provide single sign-on to protected resources. They replace the multiple user names and passwords necessary to access subscription-based content with a single user name and password that can be entered once per session. It operates independently of a user's location or IP address. If your institution uses Athens or Shibboleth authentication, please contact your site administrator to receive your user name and password.

Okay, so, I just sold a site, and I'm installing WordPress on the buyers host. The domain name probably hasn't propagated, so I'm using the IP address he provided to login to his Cpanel. I've installed WP, but when I put his IP address into my address bar, I get this:

Greetings all,
I've upgraded a WordPress install from a very old version (I think it was 2.5 or even older--circa 2007) to 2.8.4. The upgrade proceeded but the error below was reported. Can someone please let me know if this is a problem?
WordPress database error: [Table 'test.wp_linkcategories' doesn't exist]
