The US Marshal's so-called Blood Muscle Auction was completed earlier this month, with the prestigious nine-car field (two cars were added following Autoblog's initial story, a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454 and a rare, mid-restoration 1971 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda) finding new and hopefully law-abiding owners.

The old saying goes that if you can't do the time, don't do the crime. But being a criminal can involve more than just taking a trip to the big house; it can also mean losing possessions purchased from any ill-gotten gains. Still, one man's loss is another's gain, and if you're in Lodi, NJ, on September 12, you stand the chance to buy some of the ultimate muscle cars from the US Marshals in what is being gruesomely nicknamed the Blood Muscle auction.

There are classic muscle cars like the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro, and then there are rare classic muscle cars – vehicles like this 1967 Plymouth Barracuda. Walk down Metro Detroit's Woodward Avenue on the third Saturday of August, and even in that sea of Americana that is the Woodward Dream Cruise, you'd be hard pressed to find many Cudas. What ones you did come across would likely be the larger third-generation cars.

The Plymouth Superbird is one of those classic American cars from the muscle car era that has captured the imagination of all sorts of automotive enthusiasts long after its presence on roads and race tracks wore away. It's easy to see why. Where else but in the Swingin' Sixties and Seventies would a car leave the factory with an aerodynamics package that included a pointy beak and a rear spoiler that sat several feet above the rear deck?

Brian and Samantha Styles have amassed quite a collection of classic muscle cars in a collection they call The Zoo. Containing some seriously rare metal, the collection seems decidedly tilted towards Mopar offerings, although it's hardly exclusive to the Pentastar. The video is an interesting look into a collector's world, with the couple explaining that their collection isn't an attempt to have as many cars as possible, but to have the right cars. As for the name of their collection, it's a ref

They met in high school. Bev was a cheerleader, Joe played sports. The pair got married, and the first car they shared, driving off into their mutual futures together on their wedding day, was a 1948 Plymouth convertible. As is often the case with first cars – and especially cars as classically stylish and memorable as the Plymouth – they were left with nothing but fond memories after being forced to sell the car after Joe was drafted into the military.

It's like throwback uniform days at the ballpark, only this happens every day and it's at the police station. A story and video by the Associated Press takes a look at Seattle police officer Jim Ritter and his 1970 Plymouth Satellite police cruiser (the Satellite was renamed Fury in 1975) – and yes, that's him above with the car, Ritter in his period-correct police uniform. As you might guess, this is one of those community relations efforts, but it's no show pony – the Satellite is

Before Chrysler had Street and Racing Technology, it had Performance Vehicle Operations.

Almost as soon as Chrysler showed us the new Dodge Challenger, Mopar fans began wondering when the Pentastar brand would put together a Barracuda. Some financially sound fans even created their own retro 'Cudas, some to much praise. But if Car and Driver is to be believed, those visions of a modern, rejuvenated 'Cuda are not nearly modern enough.

Kirsty Shepler won her second straight state title in diving, and Nease teammate Matt Schlytter just missed a victory in the Class 2A swimming and diving championships Friday in Gainesville.
Shepler edged Claire Page of Middleton 415.85-406.95 to claim the crown again in the 1-meter diving event. Teammate Shannon Thompson was 15th. Kristen Gerkens was eighth in the 100-yard backstroke in 1:00.62.
Their points helped Nease place 10th overall with 77 points. Boca Raton won with 256.
Schlytter helped the Nease boys do even better as the Panthers were ninth with 101 points. Belen Jesuit Prep of Miami won with 275.5.
Schlytter was second in the 50 freestyle to Kelley Wyman of Tallahassee Leon. Schlytter's time of 21.33 seconds was good enough for All-American consideration. And it was just .17 of a second behind the winner.
It was a busy night for junior. He also finished eighth in the 100 freestyle in 48.41 seconds and helped Nease finish third in the 200 freestyle relay and fourth in the 400 freestyle relay.
The 200 relay team had a time of 1:29.0 and also included Nicholas Holterman, Thomas Brad Scott and William Stevenson. The 400 relay team finished in 3:18.60 and also included Schlytter, Holterman, Scott and Stevenson.
The Menendez boys finished 17th with 38 points. Chandler Gerlach was the star for the Falcons.
He was third in the 100 breaststroke in 59.05, an All-American consideration time. He missed second place by .01 of a second and first by .14 of a second. He helped the 200 medley relay team finish eighth in 1:46.04 along with Thomas Dotson, Doug Schnittker and Dylan Droege.
St. Augustine senior Kent Irvin had a nice finish to his high school career. He was eighth in the 100 breaststroke (1:01.81) and the 100 butterfly (53.24). He earned all 22 points for SAHS, which was 28th.

The video, posted on YouTube yesterday, shows 10 men wearing
t-shirts and camouflage trousers lying face down next to a
building and a lookout tower. Even before the shooting, two
of the men are not moving and one has blood coming from his
"I swear to God that we are peaceful," begs one of the men to
the camera, which is being held by the gunman. Cowering, the
man gets up to plead with rebels. As he approaches a rebel
off-screen, a shot is heard and he returns holding his
bloodied arm.
The cameraman then points the camera along the barrel of his
Kalashnikov assault rifle as he shoots the men.
"God is great. Jabhat al-Nusra," he says, referring to the
secretive al-Nusra Front, an Islamist rebel unit linked to al
Qaeda that has claimed responsibility for several suicide
bomb attacks around the country.
The gunman gets on the back of a pickup truck and the camera
pans to show the man who had been shot in the arm still
moving. More shots are fired and his body spasms.
Reuters could not immediately verify the authenticity of the
footage. Comments accompanying the video said it was filmed
in Ras al-Ain, a town on the border with Turkey where pitched
battles have raged in recent weeks.
Human Rights Watch officials said they were also
investigating the video, but could not yet confirm its
"It certainly is a very disturbing video, and it is important
to establish what happened," said Peter Bouckaert,
emergencies director at the New York-based group.
Syria's uprising started with peaceful protests which were
harshly suppressed by troops and has evolved into a civil war
in which foreign jihadi fighters have joined ranks with
defecting soldiers and armed civilians.
The 20-month-old revolt against President Bashar al-Assad has
left 40,000 people dead. World powers who support the
uprising say they are wary of providing arms to rebel groups
due to the increasing role of Islamist radicals.
Rights groups accuse both rebel groups and government forces
of war crimes including summary executions and torture.

Peralta looks sharp. Hit 97 a couple of times and 98 at least once.Hide replies
His control could be a little better, but he's getting the big pitch when he needs it....so far. He has to match zeros with Liriano.....
I like the fly balls that save pitch count!
Watching the arc of Liriano's curve I was thinking how that looked very difficult for a right handed batter to hit. Basically you have 2 opposing arcs and are trying to get them to meet at the same point. I was thinking a left handed batter would maybe have more success, as the bat would at least be on the same plane as the arc of his curve. Sure enough --- last year right handed batters hit .226 and lefties hit .286. So, why is Rickie in there? Why not Overbay?Hide replies
Last year was an abberarion .Career numbers are right handed .253 left handed .213.Career OBP is right handed .334 left handed .283.
Probably what RR was looking at,
Deserved or not, they are still treating Gennett as if he is hopeless against lefties. At some point he'll get some more at bats against them, but Liriano is pretty nasty, so it makes sense to let him sit this one out.
We might see Gennett when the Pirates take out Liriano for a RH pitcher.
I wouldn't be surprised if Weeks rarely plays late innings of close games. As long as Gennett is hitting decently, there isn't much reason to keep Weeks' shaky defense in the game if he isn't going to bat again.
I am not finding the game on DISH tonight here is SE WI
Anyone else having same prob?
Not finding the game tonite on DISH here in SE WI. Anyone else having the same prob?Hide replies
DISH seems to be messing around like TWC did last year. TWC is currently messing with CBS58. The only thing "we" can do is to quit the carriers, and that is not going to happen.
Ramirez extra-ordinary at bat!
Boy, Ramirez crushed that one! Must be eating his Wheaties for breakfast!Hide replies
Ditto, Mark Reynolds ! Another crush job !
Liriano must be steaming mad at that moon shot he gave up.....LOL
It's really early, but Gomez is on pace to nearly double his career-high walk total. That would be huge if he can manage to get on base an extra 35 or 40 times during the course of a season.Hide replies
It seems like bizzaro world where Gomez walks and KRod doesn't. I like it.
Peralta is in the five spot. I just had to type it, so I could read it. This is one helluva pitching staff.

Deano's roasted
"Drug dealing, prostitution, murders. Besides that, there are no problems." That's Andrew Taylor's assessment of Deano's Cafe, on the 2100 block of Madison. (Indeed, there was a murder as recently as last April.) As chair of the Miller Park Neighborhood Association, Taylor is leading a pack of residents who hope to convince the Washington State Liquor Control Board against renewing Deano's liquor license.
The neighborhood association's website keeps a public safety board, where Deano's is an all-too-popular topic. Here is a sample:
I have HAD IT with the one-legged, crack smoking homeless guy that hangs about down here. He's filthy and obviously totally brain damaged and smokes crack in front of God and Country with no fear and I've HAD IT. My generally sympathetic and liberal patience with these poor, lost, addicted souls is exhausted when it comes to this scumbag.
Another neighbor guarantees that by merely driving past Deano's back lot you will be waved down by someone who will offer drugs and/or sex. I personally tested this claim, and I can report that even at the un-bewitching hour of 11 a.m., I had a hooker chasing after my car.
The city attorney's office has collected input from neighborhood sources about the bar's impact. In the letter he submitted, Taylor describes being propositioned on the sidewalk by prostitutes and drug dealers. He concludes: "We, as neighbors, cannot prove that the bar is the source of all the problems, but it is abundantly clear that Deano's Bar serves as a focus for all that is ill and dangerous in our area."

We constructed a genomic library and developed 14 polymorphic loci to assess species boundaries between previously described mtDNA lineages and to examine the genetic variability between populations of the ringneck snake Diadophis punctatus species complex. Polymorphism was investigated for these markers in 34 individuals from populations in southeastern Louisiana and southern Florida. The number of alleles ranged from 5 to 29, expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.816 to 0.962 and observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.452 to 0.889. These new loci provide the tools necessary to examine species boundaries, population genetics within species and to determine the conservation status of imperiled populations.

The more I read the more I'm positive, just POSITIVE, that Hillary Rodham Clinton is the antichrist.
No. The teachers' unions are saying there shouldn't be one single kind of workplace that allows workplace caucus locations -- they should be equally available to all. It's about having the same rules for all kinds of workers.
And, no, the effort made on this was not by the Clinton campaign.
Just like that antigay singer who hates gay marriage is not part of the OBama campaign.
And yes, HRC's got it right, caucuses limit voting.
Meanwhile if you want to see unfiltered HRC she's on Meet The Press.
Yeah, before this, I felt I could be enthusiastic about the Dem nominee no matter who won, but now, more and more, I want Obama to take this so this kind of dirty politics doesn't get rewarded.
@2 If she wasn't behind it, she would ask her allies to stop.
Wizzle is up wit this?
When I think of Nevada, I WANT a Pizzy convention!!
@2: Are you watching? HRC must be cursing Bill and his "fairy tale" right now--the entire show so far has been about Obama and her Iraq war vote. She's sounding positively embattled.
@2, @5
She is looking irritated, she turned positively white when they showed her speech in 2002, and then showed Obama's position that same week. He clearly had the foresight and understanding of the situation at that time. She was furious with Tim Russert for showing that.
How many times did she say "You know we need to put this in context, and Tim kept asking her about making a decision at that time, and that everyone had years to refine and "gain" experience on what "should" have been done.
Isn't she running on having the "experpience" and "wisdom" on how best to run the country?
Ohh... except in this case. We need to keep her positions "in context"
Nice Hillary. You sound like you are two faced and will say whatever gets you your way at the moment.
Anyone else pickup on her inconsistencies?
Yup. Am watching. Thought she was great in the beginning, sounded embattled at times but overall seems smart and well informed and well prepared. On the whole she's got the better of Tim. He didn't really "get" her on anything and she answered about Bill's comments pretty specifically. She stood up to Tim when he played a short snippet of Bill taking him out of context.
I thought her answer on how Obama gave one speech in 2002 then shut up took it off his web site came to the US SEante and mainly voted just like HRC a pretty effective rebuttal to his basing his campaign on that one speech.
I do not find it unattractive to see a fighter.
And yes, Obama is uplifting/inspiring etc. And yes she just "cackled" again --ohmygod how could we vote for a cackler!!!!!!!
I didn't hear the quote where Obama supposedly compared himself to JFK and MLK -- if he really did, it's a stretch.
Isn't it.
Ooh, now they're talking about this thing. "I don't want to disenfranchise anybody!" This is not a winner.
The Clinton campaign is taking all the smear machine and voter suppression techniques from the Rove playbook. It's breathtaking.
To some extent they're right that this is 'revenge' for what Republicans have done, but at what point does it become such standard procedure for you that it becomes part of who you are as a politician?
MHD, you appear to be quoting someone when you say "they're right that this is 'revenge' for what Republicans have done."
Is that an actual quote ? From who?
Or is it you "quoting" you?
It's a pretty important thing for people to know.
@7: I'm pretty sure Obama has never compared himself to JFK or MLK--though, of course, his supporters do routinely. And he does quote MLK ("fierce urgency of now") and invoke JFK (this speech on service) in speeches.
The Iraq thing doesn't bother me in the least. Once we invaded a soverign country and removed its leader, it would have been irresponsible to immediately pull funding and let Iraq collapse. Obama was more than justified in his early Senate votes. It's more irritating to me that HRC voted to authorize a war and is now all about allowing a sectarian conflict to run its destructive course.
oh, the hypocrisy indeed. doesn't your own quote show that HRC is not involved with this lawsuit?
agree with you: HRC voted wrong on Iraq war resolution. AS I've said over and over, both have flaws.
Disagree she "now is all about" more destruction in Iraq but have no idea what you are referring to. So, can't really respond to the unsupported unexplained assertion. Maybe you're right? How would we know?
BTW, HRC specifically referred to an Obama speech in which he compared himself to JFK and MLK. Would like to know the truth of that -- by reading the actual quote. Whether misc. sloggers are "pretty sure" Obama didn't compare himself to JFK or MLK isn't that interesting. Sorry. Of course, like you, I was too lazy to try to find it!
PS: tidbit: when Russert demanded she say whether Obama is qualified to be president, she avoided answering. She said the voters have to decide.
Obvious purpose: leave door open to ask Obama to be VP.
The smart answer. Right?
believe it's a bit unfair for him to talk like he was out there waging war against the war at all times.
he voted right, HRC
It never really surprised me that the Clinton campaign would resort to Rove-style tactics against Obama:
Nor has it ever really surprised me that Hillary Clinton has cultivated this Romney-esque ability to morph her positions according to political calculation:
No, it's never really surprised me that the Clinton campaign and Hillary herself have powerful strands of the Rove and Romney Republican DNA. But this story about trying to block the casino precincts does surprise me. I never thought they could stoop this low.
unPC @2 is right to say that this is not a cut-and-dried issue:
The teachers' unions are saying there shouldn't be one single kind of workplace that allows workplace caucus locations -- they should be equally available to all. It's about having the same rules for all kinds of workers.
And yet, were the Republicans' efforts in Florida and Ohio to disenfranchise voters any more cut-and-dried? Makes you appreciate all the more our own state's Secretary of State Sam Reed for refusing to manipulate the 2004 gubernatorial recount process into a victory for Dino Rossi.
You guys, claiming that this lawsuit has nothing to do with HRC's campaign is just naive. She may not have explicitly asked them to file the lawsuit, but she certainly could have stopped them from doing so.
Annie @15:
You guys, claiming that this lawsuit has nothing to do with HRC's campaign is just naive. She may not have explicitly asked them to file the lawsuit, but she certainly could have stopped them from doing so.
The irony of this is that the same people who are denying the Clinton campaign has anything to do with this lawsuit would laugh at the assertion that the Bush-Cheney 2004 campaign had nothing to do with Swift Boat Veterans for Truth.
The other irony of this is that, not only could the Clinton campaign have stopped this lawsuit, it should have stopped this lawsuit for its own sake.
This lawsuit could very well backfire and be the thing that hands Nevada to Obama. Y'know, in politics as in war, you have such a thing as blowback, the law of unintended consequences.
The Democratic Party may be getting more and more upscale, but Democratic presidential contests are not won and lost on the votes of upscale voters. They're won and lost on the votes of working class voters. Obama has the opportunity to turn Hillary's "I'm the champion of the working class" theme on its head, to turn one of her strengths into a weakness. Simply put, if she cares so much about working folks, then why are her campaign's stand-ins trying to prevent working folks from voting?
She's right. The caucus system DOES disinfranchise people. It disinfranchises the very people you are hoping to win your Sexy, Sexy Barista contest. Millions of people work on Saturday (Retail especially. Wal-Mart alone employs over a million people)and cannot make it their caucus. Not everyone can call in sick or rearrange their schedules (who would fill in for them? Everyone's supposed to be at the caucus!). I'm sure you can proxy somehow, but please. Proxies are totally confusing and a pain in the ass.
Also, the caucuses disinfranchise introverts and people who would rather not shout their political preferences to everyone. Imagine if you live in a small community that mainly votes Republican. You are not going to be caught dead at the Democratic caucus. Let's say you hate talking and haggling in big groups? Let's say you hate crowds. All of these things are keeping people away from their caucus.
I can't wait until we have some online way to caucus so everyone can participate.
No. The teachers' unions are saying there shouldn't be one single kind of workplace that allows workplace caucus locations -- they should be equally available to all. It's about having the same rules for all kinds of workers.
The teachers' union and everyone else who doesn't work at a casino already got their accomodation - the caucus is being held on a Saturday.
Unfortuantely, this is one of the busiest days of the week for casino workers so the Nevada State Dems came up with the at-large locations so that they don't get screwed and can still participate.
I'm surprised she'd take this on. I'm completely unconvinced she'd be motivated here by anything other than self-interest. And yet it seems like the caucus system could help her, too - caucuses are also more favorable to elderly retirees, who have more flexible schedules and would disproportionately favor Hillary.
@7 Are we watching the same performance?
Sorry that is just you trying to put a positive spin on a horrible interview on HRC's part.
She was defensive, tried to spin and control the direction of the questions, refused to answer Russert so many times it was dizzying, and generally showed her true colors as a slick politician.
Nice attempt at spinning though....
Nevada has like, what, three electoral votes? Who gives a shit who wins Nevada?
He never compared himself to MLK.
NH debate, everybody gets asked about change. H talks about how she's accomplished change, talks about words vs. actions, denigrates former at expense of latter.
O defends words, says they have power to start change, cites MLK among others.
H continues on this theme, drawing contrast between MLK and LBJ, it takes a president, [not a village] [not wordsmiths] etc.
And now, on Meet the Press, she is trying to say that she meant MLK as someone of action, you know, like her. When the MLK/LBJ quote clearly was contrasting the two. MLK is not a president, you see.
But of course O could be one. He can sign a law AND speak. Without alienating people right and left.
I wonder how many caucuses take place in schools. Mine does. Nice workplace advantage for the teachers.
Christ, as a teacher's union guy this kind of stuff just drives me nuts.
If the Nevada Education Association has enough money to be wasting their members' dues on this, then they have too much money.
No, Annie, Hillary's right. I'm no Hillary fan either, but she's right on.
The caucus shuts out all but the well connected, well to do political diehards and their voices... ONLY their voices. All that crap about proxies is merely symbolic. Whoever's doing the actual participating gets the last word. Everyone else is shut out.
Well, I kind of like caucuses because of the grassroots organizing they encourage. And I think the parties have a right to nominate candidates using whatever method they deem appropriate--you're still going to get your mail-in ballot (perfect for shut-ins!) during the general election. But even if you think caucuses disenfranchise voters, the fact is, shutting down caucus locations because you don't like the candidate they're likely to go for further disenfranchises voters. How can that possibly be the right thing to do?
The good thing about the caucus system is it's kind of like IRV - you can have a second or third choice if your candidate has too little support (15 percent), thus meaning you get to switch to your second and possibly third choice.
"The union, which has not endorsed a candidate, has some leaders who individually support Clinton. It is using a law firm with at least one prominent lawyer who backs Clinton."
i'm sure some of the other teachers in that union support other candidates, just as i'm sure the other attorneys at that law firm support other candidates. i bet, given just about any group of people, you could find some hillary supporters and some obama supporters. i don't think that means the group is for hillary or obama.
annie if they had set up the caucuses in gated communities or security buildings that made minorities uncomfortable, would it be ok for the NAACP sue to move them?
i'm not sure that HRC could have stopped the suit as interest groups are not always controlled by the candidate. i'd guess this is more of a turf war between unions.
btw - i'm not supporting HRC at this time but find your rants against her moving me in her direction - i don't see your rants helping to getting a no Republican in the WH in 2008.
Ryan @ 24 -- As a "teacher's union guy", presumably you realize NV's NEA afiliate NSEA rep's not just teachers, but education support professionals -- including tech's, security, custodians, etc who may be required at work on caucus Saturday (schools are popular caucus sites) .... making it impossible for them to participate their own precinct caucuses.
You might also expect an education union to stand against a backroom deal that gave members of a larger, more powerful union ten times your delegate weight per member. (Actually more than ten times, since the hotel workers are delegate-weighted twice - once where they live, and again where they work).
And you might have a little extra motivation if you knew that the other, larger union helped kill an education funding proposal that would have taxed their employers.
I'm sure the teachers union would have complained about this a year ago instead of waiting until right after the casino workers endorsed Obama if they had realized how disingenuous it looks. Maybe that just shows how committed they are to justice, that they never give a second's thought to appearances.
When was the last time I saw such altruism? Oh I remember. It was when Laurelhurst was willing to catch any amount of flack in order to gift neighborhoods far (very far) from Laurelhurst with much needed children's hospital facilities.
It's so sad that being noble and pure of heart sometimes looks so selfish.
Take this with a grain of salt, please, and recognize that Obama supporters (I'm not sure about the candidate himself, so I cannot make an assertion about how he views them), as well as many other Americans who are not Clinton supporters have criticized the caucus system for the way that it disadvantages those who work or are otherwise legitimately occupied during that time period. Not all people are able to secure a proxy, and not all caucus states have proxy laws. I know for a fact that multiple campaigns cited that the caucus system can be disenfranchising to certain people as the reason that they provided child care and rides for those wishing to attend the caucus in Iowa.
The awesome thing about the caucus system (at least in Iowa, where I'm from) is that they are designed to be a party building experience, where local citizens are able to bring up points and vote on different issues that shape the state and national party platform. In my precinct, and many others which I have heard about, many, if not all of the Obama supporters left the caucus immediately after the count for delegates was taken, conveniently skipping all of the party building activities which they apparently did not feel were worth their time. This violated the entire intention of a caucus and led to many people who genuinely care about the party and not just a particular candidate feeling frustrated and disenfranchised.
So, I can say that frustration with the caucus system in this year is not at all unique.
FURTHERMORE, it is entirely ridiculous to expect that HRC and supporters of her wouldn't have problems with caucuses being held at a location which offers an incredible benefit to a union endorsing a rival candidate's supporters. I don't see any problem with raising legitimate concerns about the ethics of caucusing in a casino when the Culinary Workers Union- which was born and bred in the casinos of Vegas- have endorsed a particular candidate. It's not trying to prevent people from caucusing (it's not voting, it's caucusing), it's trying to prevent caucusing from happening in an unfair way. When you give an unfair advantage to a group of people, it is unfair. That's how "fairness" works. It's ridiculous of you to try to paint it as some sort of voter fraud. If there's not an unbalance favoring Obama inherent in the situation, why would you be irritated about them moving the location?
What I don't think is rational is being pissed that unions supporting HRC- organizations who genuinely believe that she can, and will, do what is best for them and this country- are upset at the casino caucus locations.
Have we always had a caucus here? I thought we had a primary? I'm confused.
The caucus is perhaps the messiest form of democracy ever invented or promulgated upon a naive citizenry. If prom queens were nominated this way, caucuses would go the way of buggy whips. What I envision in King County is that the Obama-lites will hijack the process just as the Kerry-lites did here in 2004. Don't doubt it - this is a case where he who shouts the loudest wins.
I happen to share in the frustration with the caucus system, but am planning on going anyway, if there's any point after 2/5.
That said, you seem to be missing several points about the lawsuit over the caucus locations. These places have been known about for several months, if not a year or more. Nobody saw reason enough to complain about these locations for any reason until the Culinary Union endorsed Obama. By all appearances, there wouldn't be a lawsuit, attempting to prevent people from caucusing, if not for the endorsement. And you can bet your ass that there wouldn't be a lawsuit if the endorsement went the other way either.
How is it fair to try to prevent people from caucusing only when you don't think those people will stand for your candidate? It may not be fraud (and you're the only one suggesting it), but it is highly disingenuous.
I fundamentally believe that if the situation was reversed, Obama supporters would be backing the lawsuit.
I'm well aware that the locations have been known for several months. What YOU and many others seem to be ignoring is that until the Culinary Union endorsed Obama, there wasn't an inherent conflict of interest in the caucuses being held there.
It's not an issue of preventing people from caucusing- it's an issue of making it INHERENT EASIER for certain groups of people to caucus- when those individuals have a significantly large union which has endorsed a particular candidate, it presents a conflict of interest which is, itself "highly disingenuous".
So Sara, first the locations were chosen - ages ago, then the culinary workers endorsed, very recently, and right after that Clinton's people wanted to shut them out. And you say, based on no evidence, that if situations were reversed Obama would be backing the lawsuit? The lawsuit would not have been filed by the Clinton supporters to begin with, had the culinary workers chosen her. That's what they were waiting for, obviously, given the timing. If you think that the culinary workers have unfair advantage with the caucus sites, well that was true all along, right? This disenfranchisement is not remotely principled on Clinton's part, but opportunistic only.
Again, everyone who doesn't work on the Strip got their consideration when the caucuses were scheduled on a frackin' *Saturday morning*!
The At-Large locations are a way of unscrewing one of the largest contingent of works in the state so they can caucus on their busiest day of the week. This isn't an "unfair advantage"; it's trying to balance out an acute *disadvantage*.
@33: We have a caucus and a primary. On the Democratic side, the primary doesn't count and the caucus counts. On the Republican side, both the primary and the caucus count but the primary counts slightly more.
#33 we have had a caucus for a long, long time if not from the beginning of statehood while the primary is brand new.
26. That doesn't really change the main point that the caucus system is inherently limiting and flawed. Some people don't have the time and resources to 'get involved'.
unPC @10,
I'm not quoting anyone, I'm using quotation marks to indicate that revenge would be an odd way to put it, since the tactics are being used not on Republicans but a Democratic candidate that's run a pretty clean campaign.
At any rate, that sentence was attempt to give the Clintons a little bit of credit: the other explanation is that they're Karl Rove-type douchebags. If you don't like the Republican-revenge explanation and prefer the above, that's fine with me; I'm not sure there's a functional difference anyway.
Where are the Wal Mart and Target caucuses being held?
RonK @ 30
Ryan @ 24 -- As a "teacher's union guy", presumably you realize NV's NEA afiliate NSEA rep's not just teachers, but education support professionals -- including tech's, security, custodians, etc who may be required at work on caucus Saturday (schools are popular caucus sites) .... making it impossible for them to participate their own precinct caucuses.
Oh noes! Thousands of tech's (sic, Ron K is probably a member of the NEA, hence the incorrect apostrophe on the plural), security workers, custodians, etc will have to work on Saturday morning thus disenfranchising them. Teh horror! Ron, you're full of shit, really, you are. Most schools are completely closed down on the weekends, which is why they use them for caucuses or voting places. Also just how many people are going to be affected by this? Come on, how many thousands of NSEA personnel are going to be disenfranchised, probably not too many, teachers don't work weekends because schools are closed.
This was a very reasonable attempt to allow casino workers a chance to participate in the Nevada caucus, the only reason the NSEA is against it is because the casino workers aren't bowing down for their candidate.
And you might have a little extra motivation if you knew that the other, larger union helped kill an education funding proposal that would have taxed their employers.
What the fuck does this have to do with anything? Sure, if you're a stupid liberal then you automatically believe that handing more money to public schools will automatically make them better. Those of us who aren't stupid liberals or ass-whores for the teacher's union don't automatically salivate when that particular bell is rung. The NEA and AFT are run by a bunch of corrupt fucks and shitheads who don't care about public education and who are concerned with nothing more than lining their own pockets and what's more Hilary Clinton knows this; why else do you think she sent her daughter to a lily-white private school (Sidwell Friends) when she was First Lady (which, despite what HRC supporters may think, is not co-president)?

Stop-Out Level vs. Margin Call
admin on September 15th, 2011
When choosing a Forex broker and planning to open your first account, you will probably hear a lot about
To start with, let's quickly review the definition of margin. Trading on margin is one of the biggest motives to trade Forex for many people. With Forex, you don't actually need $100,000 to trade $100,000 worth of currency. You might need for example only $1000 if your broker offers you leverage of 1:100. This means that for every dollar you put down in your deposit, you are allowed to trade $100 worth of currency. This is referred to as trading on margin. It is incredibly powerful and can make you rich overnight—or destroy you overnight, which is considerably more likely!
You can rephrase the 1:100 leverage above as 1% margin. This means that the broker requires you to present 1% of the trade as a minimum security margin. Now when you join a Forex broker, you'll read about their margin call and
Another way of doing things is a margin call at 100%. That means once your equity drops below 100% of the minimum requirement to trade, you'll not only get a margin call, but your trades will be closed out just like at a
How do you avoid this horrible thing happening to you? To avoid getting a margin call and/or hitting a
Some More Real Life Examples:
Example 1. You have an account with a broker that has 50% margin call level and 20%

Need to give some real life examples. I looked at a broker that had a Margin call / Stopout that was 50%-20%(HotForex) I also had one that was 150%-100%(FinFX) so if i had a $5000 acc with the 50-20 and i used $1000 for a trade and the trade went $500 against me I would get a margin call right? Then at a $800 lose get closeout? Or closed out when I had only $200 left in my $5000 acc? Or at 150-100 get a margin call at a $1500 lose and closed out when the entire $5000 acc was gone?
admin Says:
September 25th, 2011 at 1:57 pm
With 50-20, $5,000 account and $1,000 used for margin, you'd get a margin call when your loss on a position is $4,500 (so your equity is $500 or 50% of your $1,000 margin); you'd get stop-out when you loss reaches $4,800 (so your equity is $200 or 20% of $1,000 margin.)
With 150-100, $5,000 account and $1,000 used for margin, you'd get a margin call when your loss on a position is $3,500 (so your equity is $1,500 or 150% of your $1,000 margin); you'd get stop-out when you loss reaches $4,000 (so your equity is $1,000 or 100% of $1,000 margin.)
Hope that helps.

admin: Im assuming that if I traded the hole $5000 with 50-20 margin call would be $2500 and stopout $1000.And if I tried to do the same thing at 150-100 the trade would not go through?

If you have $5,000 account and you used all $5,000 as margin, then with 50/20 margin/stop-out, you'll get margin call when your equity goes to $2,500 or below ($2,500 loss or more); you'll get stop-out when your equity reaches $1,000 ($4,000 loss).
With 150/100 margin/stop-out, you'll get margin call when immediately and since stop-out is 100% you won't be able to open that last position, or it will get closed immediately, since you have to maintain at least $5,000 equity on your account.
Please let me know if you have more questions.

After lots of searching and posting in lots of forums i was disappointed,
Admin you have done a great job you explanation is so clear even dumb minded can understand.
Admin here another question rise with 100% stopout level, when we open position with 100 dollar why broker froze another 100 dollar. i hope you understand.
with 20% stopout If we open postion with whole amount in account will free margin go in negative or stay on zero.

99, the amount of used margin for position maintaining (I suppose you meant that with "broker froze another 100 dollar") does not depend on the stop-out level. It only depends on the trade size, leverage, and broker's margin requirements. For normal Forex trades, it is usually just the trade size divided by leverage. For example, 0.1 lot on EUR/USD at 1.1000 with 1:100 leverage will require
0.1 × 100000 × 1.1 ÷ 100 = $110margin.

Hello, I would like to know if even with the call margin and stop out mechanisms is there any possibility of an aacount becoming in "negative" due to the losses of opened trading positions ?
admin Says:

Yes, in rare cases, it is possible for such a situation (when account balance becomes negative) to appear in Forex. The notable example is January 15, 2015, Swiss franc gap that resulted in positions closing hundreds pips beyond the stop-losses and stop-outs. Normally, brokers only seek redemption on very large negative balances as it is quite difficult for them to make the account holder compensate the loss.

AbstractKnowledge of key parameters of optical turbulence is essential for prediction of optical performance in both imaging and transmitting applications. Optimal techniques for compensation of turbulence effects are only as good as the knowledge of the turbulence environment. The basic required parameters are r0, the Fried coherence length, and fG, the Greenwood frequency. These are specifications of the mean spatial and temporal statistics of the turbulence. Generally, these parameters plus the Kolmogorov spectrum are utilized for analysis and simulation of optical propagation through turbulence. It is recognized that the Hill spectrum, including inner scale, L0, is a more realistic model of index variations. This model includes a turbulence enhancement in a spectral subrange prior to the inner scale roll-off. Knowledge of this enhancement and the subsequent roll-off is important for predicting the statistics of both phase and scintillation effects and has a direct impact on adaptive optics design and performance. A technique, and sensor design, is proposed that is capable of estimating r0, fG, and L0 as well as scintillation statistics. The technique has been demonstrated in analysis and simulation. A prototype sensor will be built and the technique will be demonstrated in a range of turbulence environments.

Like starting out quickly after the starter's gun, marathon and half-marathon runners can get an early jump by registering now for the Sixth Annual Lone Star Paper Chase, set for May 29 during Memorial Day weekend Funfest activities in Amarillo.
Runners in the 26.2-mile marathon and the 13.1-mile half-marathon can save $5 by registering beginning Monday through May 22. After the early registration deadline, entry fees will increase to $30 for the marathon and $25 for the half-marathon. Those wishing to register for either race should contact the Amarillo Globe-News marketing department at (806) 345-3451 during normal business hours.
Marathoners, half-marathoners and those running in the three-person 10K relay must register by May 28. Late registration is scheduled from 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday, May 28, at the Ambassador Hotel, 3100 I-40 West.
The Lone Star Paper Chase is one of several events sponsored by the Globe-News in 1999 as part of the newspaper's Celebrate 2000 theme, a yearlong series of promotions and events to recognize the coming millennium.
"This year's Paper Chase will be the best we've had," said Jo Bagwell, race coordinator and marketing manager of the Globe-News. "We have many special things planned for the race as part of our Celebrate 2000 theme. If you're a runner, this is a race you won't want to miss."
The Lone Star Pater Chase is actually five events. In addition to the marathon and half-marathon, there will be a 10K and three-person relay, which emphasizes competition from local corporations and schools. And, for the first time, a 2000-yard owner / pet fitness walk is scheduled.
As a sidelight, Amarillo native Rick Worley of Houston, world record-holder for consecutive marathons, will run in his 150th consecutive marathon over 126 consecutive weeks at the Paper Chase.
Early registration is recommended for all events to ensure requested T-shirt size. Those entering the 10K run and owner / pet fitness walk can register from 7 a.m. to 7:45 a.m. on the morning of the race, May 29. Registration for the 10K relay is $30 per team, $15 for the 10K and $10 for the owner / pet fitness walk.
All registered participants will receive Paper Chase T-shirts and will be eligible to win several door prizes. Medals will be awarded to all age-group winners and all marathon finishers.
The marathon and half-marathon will begin at 7 a.m. on Coulter Street in front of Northwest Texas Hospital. Both races will follow similar routes, taking runners south along city neighborhoods, then along Route 66 through the restaurant and antique shopping district.
The races will finish in Thompson Park on the west side of Wonderland Park.
The 10K and 10K relay will begin at 8 a.m., with the owner / pet fitness walk to start five minutes later. Those courses start and finish at Thompson Park, west of Wonderland Park.
Proceeds from the Paper Chase will support the Globe-News' Newspaper in Education program, which supplies more than 12,000 newspapers each week to classrooms in the tri-state region.
