My vote was "NO". And I agree w/many others who have commented that the choices were poorly stated. Therefore, the choice has to be a NO. Israel is not my favorite nation. Neither is Iran. Both these nations need regime change. As a navy vet, I would like to remind folks that during the Israeli/Arab conflict in 1967, it was the Israeli's who attacked the USS Liberty. The ship was stationed near the conflict and was definitely there to monitor the electronic signals of the combatants. The "close ally" (Israel) claimed they made a mistake by attacking the USS Liberty. We let them off the hook even though they deliberately fired upon sailors in the water from close proximity.. So they made a mistake. To my mind this just don't cut it. Furthermore, to call Israel a democracy is ridiculous. The Palestinians have been enslaved by the Israeli's. We fought a Civil War over slavery.. Let's call a spade a spade..

Separation of church and state" (sometimes called "wall of separation between church and state") is a phrase used by Thomas Jefferson (in his 1802 letter to the Danbury Baptists) and others expressing an understanding of the intent and function of the Establishment Clause and Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. Jefferson's often quoted words of a "wall of separation" has been cited repeatedly by the U.S. Supreme Court. In Reynolds v. United States (1879) the Court wrote that Jefferson's comments "may be accepted almost as an authoritative declaration of the scope and effect of the [First] Amendment." In Everson v. Board of Education (1947), Justice Hugo Black wrote: "In the words of Thomas Jefferson, the clause against establishment of religion by law was intended to erect a wall of separation between church and state." This "Wall of Separation" has been quoted by the Supreme Court 25 times in rulings in regards to the Establishment Clause. The Establishment Clause of the Constitution has been used by the Court in rulings involving striking down prayer in school and in the removing of display of religious artifacts in government places, most recently when a local judge displayed the ten commandments in the Court House. The US Supreme Court continues to defend the US Constitution from religious extremists who continue to try to make the US a religious government when the Founders guaranteed this country would be a secular society. Isreal, Pakistan and Iran are countries founded by and for a religion; the US is not! Yes, the wall of separation is guaranteed by the Constitution.
"There is no wall of separation" in the First Amendment! Progressives (Liberals) try to promote this idea to circumvent the constitution. The First Amendment states: "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercize thereof." Since Congress has never done this, there is therefor no prohibition against religion being used to inform or influence legislation.
The last thing any of us want is conflict however Israel has been on the front lines for generations and if Iran is a threat it must be taken care of or we all will suffer.
You know there is so much negativity about the the question. In a perfect world we would not have this debate about what Israel should do. However we don't live in a perfect world.If Israel waits for Iran to shoot first,then it really does not matter will it?Now I do not claim to be a christen,but the bible tells us that they are God's chosen people.So should we back them up?? Or should we stand back and Iran turn Israel into glass?? Make your own mind and think about which side you want to be on.
our KC135 & KC10 air refueler A/C will be needed to refuel Isreal F15's after bomb drop for the trip back to their home base. The original take-off weight reduces gas-mileage and wont allow to complete mission on one tank.
As a sovreign nation, Israel will have to decide what is in it's best interests without any implied or express support from the US. In my opinion, they have proved to be a dubious ally and we have allowed them to use us as their "Big Stick" long enough. Transoff is right, the survey questions attempt to produce the desired results and are biased in that regard. Old people are responsible for the decisions that start wars, young people do the fighting and dying. Poll our active duty military if you want the opinions of the participants and don't ask leading questions.
You see something wrong with their "theory?"
The only reason Isreal thinks they can start a war with Iran and win is because they think they have big dumb Uncle Sam standing behind them. Isreal wants to start a war in order to pull the US into fighting Isreal's wasr with Hezbolah. I think Obama should tell fat Ben that if he starts it then he is on his own, and then watch fat Ben shut up and stop his sabre rattling. Pakistan has hundreds of nucleur weapons and after Obama thumbed his nose at Pakistan its amazing how they have shut up. The American Legion and its war hawks need to wake up and realize American is tired of war; been there done that and it will not accomplish anything; right "W"?
Some other questions:
1 - Is there anyone who thinks we can successfully negotiate with Iran?
2 - Is there anyone who thinks that Iran will be honorable and not lie and cheat to achieve their ends. As I understand it lying to "non-believers" in the furtherance of Islam is accepted.
3 - So at what point do we do something? After their first nuclear attack, or when they admit having a nuclear weapon capability and threaten to use it?
We (our current government) missed a great opportunity when we failed to support the backlash of the recently stolen election in Iran. After that you can bet that those opportunities will be stifled and muffled much sooner - if any are brave enough to protest again.
sorry forgot to turn off the bold
If a person were to receive a direct credible threat that made them believe that their life was in IMMEDIATE danger, yes they would be justified in using force to eliminate the threat.
Replace the word "person" with the word "nation".
I voted no, however in no way do I believe that it will lead to world war three. This will further undermine our standing in the international community if we sanction war above diplomacy. The available answers to the question should have been, "yes or no" without including the thoughts of the writer which does not represent the voter's opinion. We will be better off when the heads of state stop using envoys to do the talking and meet face to face with each other to discuss our differences and come to a reasonable agreement. International pressure and patience will persevere. To compare Iran with Hitler's Germany is way off base; we stood by while Germany invaded most of Europe before we entered the war. So far Iran hasn't invaded any other countries that I know of.
Thus it is that in war the victorious strategist only seeks battle after the victory has been won, whereas he who is destined to defeat first fights and afterwards looks for victory. Sun Tzu
Israel does have its own right to exist, and, according to the Bible can allow, justify all, and have all excuses. As a patriotic American I'd rather have an obsessed israel than a nuclear Iran.
The Bible is not a credible source in our secular republic as our Constitution has the "establish clause" that puts "a wall of separation between church and state" according to the Supreme Court. Therefore, the Bible has no place in a political discussion. Using your logic, the Koran may say Isreal is the infidel and has no right to exist. The Koran, according to our Constitution, has the same standing as the Bible.
"There is no wall of separation" in the First Amendment! Progressives (Liberals) try to promote this idea to circumvent the constitution. The First Amendment states: "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercize thereof." Since Congress has never done this, there is therefor no prohibition against religion being used to inform or influence legislation.
Israel has as much right to attack Iran as I suppose it had to attack, say the Victory some years ago. Israel is obsessed with the theory that its own right to exist allows all, justifies all and excuses all.
Go back & read a good history book..US left the
league of nations, as we are doing with United Nations. US because of strength were to remain overseas. All united nations were to suipport us in these matters. When this did not happen, NAZI germany, and Japan were allowed. to expand,invade and kill: Manchuria, china, Poland,Austria etc, and ultimately the HOLOCOST occured. Read Hildabrand's "Unbroken."
Look at my name. Never again will this happen. Like Israel, I will not wait before I take action. How long is the world going to take it from the Muslims who want to kill all of us. Wait much longer and our Muslim President will destroy what Military we have. Wake up America.
We should support Israel destroying Iranian facilities and take part in any offensive air attack.. Let Iran block the Straits of Hermuz. We might as well learn to live with less oil now rather than later.I'm sick and tired of Americans living under the oppressive fear brought on by radical Islam. Maybe rationed gasoline will wake up Americans. Especially our game playing text messaging youth. Time for the US to stop being blackmailed by Islam.
Let's Roll!
If someone aims a grenade launcher at me and screams repeatedly to the world that they intend to kill me with it I guarantee I'm shooting first and negotiating and sanctioning later. As a Jew I know better than most that Israel turns the other cheek until they're bloody and their eyes are swollen shut, then they retaliate. Guess what happens? Israel gets condemned for beating up the bully, every single time. One cannot turn the other cheek when the bully is about to apply massively deadly force. This administration has completely failed the only civilized ally we have in the Middle East and Israel is on her own, at least until next January.
Well said; point a gun at me and declare your intentions and I'm not going to wait until you pull the trigger, I'm going to shoot before you pull the trigger. To do otherwise is suicidal folly.

Court? Are you serious? I practiced law, and I believe courts do some things very well, but international politics is NOT one of them.
I think Preston1939 is right. The most likely scenario that leads to the use of nuclear weapons is that there is NO preemptive strike against Iran's nuclear capability!
It goes like this. If Iran has nuclear weapons, then Israel will eventually be hit with one, if not by Iran directly then with one that Iran "lost" to Hezbollah. Now, it is the world's worst kept secret that Israel has a stockpile of their own nukes. If hit, it is almost certain that they would exercise the old strategy we called "massive retaliation". For them, it is a matter of survival.
At that point, I think the U.S., Russia, and China would all nervously look at each other, gulp, and then publicly condemn all actors in the Middle East and do everything possible to NOT get directly involved.
I believe it is the same as an individual being justified, when threatened with great harm or death, to use deadly force to protect themselves.
I'd like to hear from the 73 that voted no. Oh no we don't want to start WWIII. Well it was your rasoning that started WWII. Let them get away with what ever they want. I don't think any of you guys remember Hitler and how the World left him alone.
I voted no. First answer Yes says that we have did all we could, we haven't. There are many more we can to to get our point across. We also need to get Russia and China on board. The second Yes, open approval for one country to attack with ??? bombs or nuclear ??? and if we are wrong as in Iraq? What then. The No answer to me is the best choice even though it is wrong also. Just because they get the nuke bomb doesn't mean they will use it but they could and our missile defense system might mess up but a prestrike might also not work. What about all the civilians we will kill? As far as Hitler, Time Mag before he showed his true colors, was man of the year. So at what point was he the bad guy? Yes, Iran shouts and hollers and at some point we orIsraell will have to do something but as of now it is just a loud mouth bully on the block. I do like Permalink comments. Well put and thought out, not like me.
Sherman2 your vote is not wrong. America should butt out. We are supplying the weapons Israel is shooting into Palestine just as Russia is supplying the weapons for the pro-Russian forces in the Ukraine. The fight between the Arabs and Israel has been going on for thousands of year. The Ukraine and Russia have been fighting for thousands of years. US has only been one nation for less then 150 years and we are trying to police the world? We are trying to dictate to Putin to stop sending arms to the Pro-Russians while we are sending arms to Israel? Kind of a double stander don't you think? You would think that someone in Dizzy City would read a History book.
Remember Obama will never win against Putin. Obama plays Basketball, Putin plays Chess.
In my opinion a strike by Israel is long, long over due. We as a free society have set back on our negotiations pillow long enough. Some cultures unfortunately, know only one thing - authority by determination.
FYI: American Legion voter rules. 1. a legal citizen of the United States 2. no draft dodgers 3. must have a talent other then a keyboard clicker. ps- launch the fleet, hoo ah.
I agree w/ both transoff and Joe McGovern
I am a Korean Vet VFW
Your questions are out of line!F
As anyone should know the US is Israel's biggest ally!!! If Israel were to conduct a preemptive strike against Iran, it would most definitely be construed as a giant green light from the US!!! This is not to say that Israel is incapable of acting on it's own behalf; however the strike would be PERCIEVED to carry the US stamp of approval!! This could prove disastrous to the fledgling quasi-Democracy in Iraq; as it's giant neighbor has nuclear capability and a VASTLY SUPERIOR MILITARY( I was in Iraq so I know)..I believe the world should wait and cut off all trade with Iran!! Simply starve them into submission.. When the military and their families can't eat they will rebel...By the way.....Isn't Iran backed by Russia,China,and on occasion France?? Food for thought,exactly WHO ALL would be INVOLVED!!! WW III??
I voted and was shocked to see the results. How can my brothers/sisters think it self defense to attack first? In what court would a first strike be considered self defense? This is a very poorly worded question clearly designed to skew the results of the survey to support a preemptive strike. Rather than a simple yes or no answer, the question leads us with two YES answers, and a NO. Clearly few will think we have not done enough short of war, clearly few will think WWIII will result in such a strike, as those two are the far right and left view points. The only answer left is the one the question writer wants to promote as the Legion's stance. This should be filed my friends as how dumb do they think we are! Once again, my legion is getting farther from my core beliefs when you are supporting the pretext of war.
A preemptive strike is by definition a self-defense measure applied to remove a clear and present danger to the citizens of an immediately threatened nation. Iran's leadership has made no bones about its intention to "wipe Israel from the face of the earth" and proceeds to move in that direction with each passing day.
A nation, any nation, should not have to wait to be attacked before defending itself from those sworn to that nation's obliteration.

Gleanings from Geithner's 'Full Ginsburg'
Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner did what's known in Washington as "a full Ginsburg" Sunday–appearing on all the major TV talk shows. (The name comes from Monica Lewinsky's lawyer, William Ginsburg, who supposedly was the first to pull this off back in 1998. )
So what did we learn from Mr. Geithner's appearances on CBS, CNN, NBC, Fox and ABC (which, by the way, is the order in which they were taped Friday.)
Well, for one thing, Mr. Geithner had his talking points and he stuck to them. That's not surprising given that, counting the recent shows, he now has appeared on them 24 times in the past four years.
We also learned that CBS's Bob Schieffer loves his Texas Christian University purple socks–and this week the camera angle showed them repeatedly–and that among the networks, only Fox brought Fox-branded mugs to the table when shooting at the Treasury building.
Now, as to what Mr. Geithner, had to say.
(1) The Abbott & Costello routine
Each side in the fiscal-cliff talks is saying to the other: "You go first." And each is replying, "No, we already did. Your turn."
Republicans say they've conceded that the tax code needs to be changed to bring in more revenue, and want President Barack Obama to go beyond his previous proposals on restraining spending on Medicare and other benefits. Mr. Geithner and other Democrats say that the president's last budget spelled out $600 billion over 10 years in savings from benefit programs, and you Republicans still haven't told us how you'd raise revenues.
"Ultimately, they have to come to us and tell us what they think they need. What we can't do is to keep guessing about what works," Mr. Geithner said on ABC. And on NBC: "It's welcome that they're recognizing that revenues are going to have to go up, but they haven't told us anything about how far rates should go up, how far revenues should go up. Who should pay higher taxes."
To which House Speaker John Boehner (R., Ohio) replied on Fox: "He knows what our proposals are. He knows what we're willing to do."
"The White House has spent three weeks doing basically nothing," Mr. Boehner said. "They won the election. They must have forgotten that Republicans continue to hold a majority in the House. The president's idea of a negotiation is 'roll over and do what I ask.' We need to find common ground, and we need to find it quickly."
(2) Tax rates
Mr. Geithner made clear on all five TV shows that the administration isn't budging from its insistence that Republicans acquiesce on raising tax rates on the top 2% of Americans–and curbing deductions and loopholes won't suffice.
"There's no path to an agreement that does not involve Republicans acknowledging that rates have to go up on the wealthiest Americans," he said on NBC. "There is no way to raise a meaningful amount of revenue by just limiting the value of deductions from the wealthiest Americans."
As Sen. Claire McCaskill (D., Mo.) told NBC, this Democrats look at it this way: Either Congress agrees before year-end to Mr. Obama's proposal to extend the Bush tax cuts for 98% of Americans before the end of the year, or taxes go up for everyone and then Democrats offer a bill to cut them for 98% of Americans. "Are Republicans going to vote against that?" This, of course, is the point that Rep. Tom Cole (R., Okla.) has been making to colleagues.
Mr. Geithner rubbed it in: "There's just no reason why 98% of Americans have to see their taxes go up because some members of Congress on the Republican side want to block tax rate increases for 2% of the wealthiest Americans," he said on ABC.
One possible ray of light: While hammering on raising tax rates for top brackets, Mr. Geithner didn't say emphatically that the administration is irrevocably committed to going all the way back to the 39.6% top rate of the Clinton years.
(3) Political theater
Mr. Geithner pushed back against TV interviewers who quoted Republican assertions that the talks are deadlocked, dismissing that as "the normal political theater of this place" on NBC.
At times he oscillated between advocacy for the White House position and pseudo-detached political analysis. On NBC, he said, "They [Republicans] are in a tough position. They're going to have to figure out their politics about what they do next."
And on CNN: "They're in a hard place. And they're having a tough time trying to figure out what they can do, what they can get support from their members for. That's understandable. This is very difficult for them."
(4) That $4 trillion
The administration, Mr. Geithner made clear, knows that the bigger the headline on its deficit-reduction pact, the better. To get to a $4 trillion deficit-reduction total, it will count the $1 trillion that Congress passed last year when it set 10-year caps on annually appropriated spending. (That's important in part because it ups the spending cuts in the popular spending-cuts-to-tax-increases ratio.) It also wants to count as spending cuts the money that won't be spent by fighting the Iraq and Afghanistan wars again.
(5) Social Security vs. Medicare…and farm subsidies
There will be no grand deficit deal without making changes to Medicare, the insurance program for the elderly. Mr. Geithner acknowledged that and kept pointing to the president's opening offer on that–including raising premiums for upper-income beneficiaries and paying drug companies less (he calls it paying them "smarter.")
Mr. Geithner repeatedly expressed willingness to listen to Republican proposals to save money on Medicare. (By the way, NBC showed a Mitt Romney ad that attacked Mr. Obama for "cutting" Medicare by $716 billion, and Sen. Bob Corker (R., Tenn.) said he wouldn't have run that ad.)
And money-saving changes to farm subsidies are definitely on the table, Mr. Geithner said. But Social Security? Not now.
"What the president is willing to do is to work with Democrats and Republicans to strengthen Social Security for future generations so Americans can approach retirement with dignity and with the confidence they can retire with a modest guaranteed benefit," Mr. Geithner said. "But we think you have to do that in a separate process so that our seniors don't face the concern that we're somehow gonna find savings in Social Security benefits to help reduce the other deficits."
Fixing Social Security will reduce future deficits from current projections, and Mr. Geithner knows that. But Democrats want to avoid anything that makes that explicit, figuring it's much easier to sell to the public as a way to "strengthen Social Security." Republicans, on the other hand, want to extract as much political pain from Democrats as possible if they have to acquiesce eventually on higher tax rates for the upper brackets.

Every year, East Side/West Side introduces readers to inspiring, ordinary people whose stories left readers wondering: What ever will come of them? From the tormented Syrian-American daughter to the indomitable African-American photographer and the boys basketball team in pink sneakers, let's catch up to the class of 2012.
Syrian Civil War
Ghaidaa Mousabacha sleeps better today after her parents and sisters barely survived the bloody siege of Homs, Syria.
"I'm so blessed for that," she said after New Year's Day.
Still, her father fled to Damascus where he can't get regular therapy for an arm injured by a sniper. A sister escaped to Egypt and her frail mother remains in Homs, afraid to leave the house. And this winter is more frigid than usual.
"Every time I talk to my parents or other family members, they complain of how cold they are and how concerned they are about the safety of everyone due to checkpoints, snipers, car explosions and the threat of chemical weapons," said Mousabacha, a middle school teacher in San Jose.
Meanwhile, she still raises money here for humanitarian aid there, and she also organizes rallies and letter-writing drives and bravely speaks to the media on the record about the murderous Syrian civil conflict.
"I would like to end with a positive note," Mousabacha said. "My family members and many Syrians I know who still live in Syria are not losing hope that God will get them out of this situation sometime soon and that the criminals will face punishment and consequences."
Wars that end, of course, tend live on in personal ways we can't imagine.
Battered flag
Decorated Vietnam War veteran Charley Trujillo decided last year to return a small battle flag his father captured in World War II to its "rightful owners" in Japan. Others now want to help him complete that very personal pilgrimage.
"The responses have been positive," said Trujillo, an author and publisher from San Jose.
The Saratoga-based Ed Gomersall Cultural Scholarship, he said, wants to help him find the survivors of the Japanese soldiers whose faded names appear on the flag, the type Imperial Army soldiers typically signed and wrapped around their bodies.
But he doesn't have any solid leads yet on their surviving relatives in Fukuchiyama, the unit's hometown. Trujillo intends to return the flag in person to honor his father and his Japanese foes at the time and to help him deal with the post-traumatic stress disorder he still has from Vietnam.
"I do not know how long this is going to take," Trujillo said, "but I am going to give it my best shot"
Cuppa Joe
Almost every trendy neighborhood has a hip coffee shop by now, but last year one appeared on the unlikeliest corner in central San Jose.
"The business is much better," said Sandra Zamora, co-owner of the I Java Cafe in San Jose's hard-edged Delmas Park, which is cut off from downtown by Highway 87. "Not making millions, but we are surviving and working very hard to make it successful."
The cafe received good Internet reviews on Yelp and Facebook. The local neighborhood association and a group of cyclists now meet there every month. Because there's little foot traffic, Zamora and her partner, Nadir Ali, are wooing Meetup groups, artists and visitors to the Children's Discovery Museum, which sits on the other side of the freeway.
I Java is considering a radical menu addition for any hip, caffeine joint: menudo, a traditional Mexican tripe soup believed to cure hangovers.
Photo trove
Meanwhile, photographer Sherrie Green has not found a permanent home for her striking photos of African-American leaders in Monterey County.
"I had a heart attack back in September," said the straight-talking 57-year-old Santa Claran. "I've kind of been out of it, on a lot of people's prayer lists."
Once an aspiring photojournalist, she returned to photography in the late 1990s and produced a striking series of portraits featuring successful African-Americans in the Monterey Bay area. Some of her photos will appear in February as part of a Black History Month exhibit at Seaside City Hall.
"They had such a giving spirit," she said of the pioneering black leaders her camera capture so well. "I just wanted to give something back."
Pink sneakers
And finally, the year ended well for cancer patient Lisa Bantilan
and her son, Grant, the speedy but introverted basketball player at San Jose's Independence High School who inspired his teammates to wear pink sneakers on the hardwood floor during games. Pink is the color of the movement to cure breast cancer.
"I'm doing much better," said his mother, a survivor of a double mastectomy and aggressive chemotherapy. Grant's team lost only one league game and made a proud run in the playoffs.
He's now a freshman at San Jose State University with no time for hoops. But in place of the pink sneakers is a pink ribbon inside his car.
"Everything is good," Mom said.
Let's hope for the same this year and the next for all of the East Side/West Siders.

It's not that I am old by any means, but I remember going into a diner and being able to pop 50 cents into a little machine on my table and listening to some music while I waited for my food. You will notice that these days you don't see many of these. One company is trying to change that. eCast has developed a Digital Jukebox system that works over existing broadband connections. You can listen to any song that is contained in their database. The neat thing is, if you visit their website, you can see the last song that was download and where it was downloaded from.

Users would have to download free desktop software from the TiVo Web site onto their computers. TiVoToGo will be part of a free TiVo update, which you may have already received. Unfortunately, if you use a DirecTiVo, you don't get to play with the rest of us. One other nice feature is that users will be able to burn DVD's of their favorite shows; however, this feature will not be available till shortly after launch.
Edit: If you have a Humax, Pioneer, or Toshiba TiVo/DVD
Recorder, it looks like you will have to wait until later this year to receive the TiVoToGo update. Damn.

Top 10 Viruses Listed
Posted by Hector Martinez Categories: PC / Laptop
Panda Software, a virus prevention technology firm, recently announced the top 10 viruses detected by ActiveScan, its free online scanner. At the very top of the list is Downloader.GK Trojan. This also marks the first time that a trojan tops the list, normally occupied by worms. The trojan is installed when an unsuspecting user agrees to download a specific ActiveX control, which then installs and runs two adware programs on the computer it infects.

Security Threats On The Internet
Posted by Oscar M. Cantu Categories: Misc. Tech, PC / Laptop
The year two-thousand-and-four was a year filled with many online security threats. Worm, viruses, spam, and spyware all filled the internet traffic lines, infecting many computer systems. According to the Associated Press, those were among the top internet threats of 2004. Chances are that you too were affected in some way this past year, be it by a virus or by spam. As technology evolves, perpetrators are able to build more sophisticated tools to launch more attacks. As Gregg Mastoras, senior security analyst at Sophos Inc, put it, "…there is no silver bullet technology." It seems as though security updates can barely keep up with today's attackers. As the stakes are raised higher each day, what's in store for 2005? Possibly even greater attacks, possibly even to Microsoft software alternatives such as Firefox. In this high-tech world, no one and nothing is safe.

Exchange That Gift Card
Posted by Oscar M. Cantu Categories: Misc. Tech
I've received a gift card that I had no use for before. It's a gift, how could you refuse a gift? After all that's not the polite thing to do. So what do you do when you receive a gift card you will probably never use? Stop, before you give out that gift card to someone else, check out the latest trend online. Now you can exchange or sell that gift card you have no use for. That's right, now you can take that $25 gift card for H-E-B and trade it for a $25 gift card to Best Buy or another retailer.

Commodore Computer Brand Sold
Posted by Categories: Corporate News, Portable Audio / Video
I remember my first computer, the Commodore 64. It had a monitor, a keyboard, and a floppy disk drive, and thats about all it did. It was the best selling computer of the 1980s; the Commodore 64 was the Ford Model T of computers. It only ran programs written in Commodore BASIC, and had its own version of DOS. According to this article from PCWorld, Tulip Computers agreed to sell its subsidiary Commodore International for $32.6 million to Yeahronimo Media Ventures. Yeahronimo plans to use Commodore to sell its line of digital media playing devices, but with the acquisition of the brand it is very possible that we might one day see Commodore computers again!

Blu-Ray / HD-DVD Comparisons
Posted by Categories: Home Entertainment
Most of you are probably aware of the Blu-Ray (BD-ROM) / HD-DVD technology war that is brewing, but might not know the exact details of each format. I think this article paints a nice picture of what will be coming in the future of DVD. BD-ROM offers 25GB per layer where HD-DVD only offers 20GB per layer. Most backers of HD-DVD are touting that there will be an easier transition using HD-DVD because that technology uses existing pressing technology and does not need entirely new production lines. What does that mean? Lower cost for the consumer.

Another Toolbar for your Browser
Posted by Categories: Software
If you didn't have enough choices for browser add-ons, you can thank Netcraft for adding more to the pool. If you are not familiar with Netcraft, they are an Internet services company providing research data and analysis on many aspects of the Internet. The Netcraft toolbar allows a user to find out a lot of information about a website, including what the server is running on, where it is hosted, as well as its uptime. The real power of the toolbar is its ability to protect you from phising attacks and internet fraud. By using features such as site ranking and the hosting location, you can determine if the site you are visiting is a legitimate website. So far this is only for Internet Explorer users, but they are working on a version for Firefox as well.

Looking Forward to 2005
Posted by Andru Edwards - Categories: Features, Misc. Tech
We hope you all had a happy and safe New Year. Nothing like a night of gaming straight up to 11:59 PM to get one psyched for 2005. Oh, and if you didn't know, there is plenty for all of you tech-heads out there to be excited about in this new year. After all, look at all the things we should be able to look forward to:
- Microsoft Xbox 2 with Halo 2.5
- SED Television hitting the market
- Blu-Ray and HD-DVD will battle for supremacy
- Sony's Playstation Portable hits the U.S.
- Terms like WiMax, 802.11n, and Podcast will no longer be reserved just for geeks.
- Gmail will likely go public
- The Nintendo Revolution and Sony Playstation 3 will be unveiled
- Hard drives will continue growing in disk space but shrinking in physical size, making portable media even more exciting.
- The Apple iPod will continue to evolve
That is just my list. We are interested in hearing about what you are excited about this coming year. Let us know in the comments.

Knitter's Review
April 12, 2012
Yarn shops are on the front line of knitting. Work in one and you'll quickly get a good idea what people want, where they get stuck, and where they don't want to go.
Former store owner Heather Walpole listened to her customers. They asked again and again for a great machine-washable worsted-weight wool, something soft enough for babies and the tender-skinned. She started a company to create that very yarn. Meet Wooly Worsted from Ewe Ewe Yarns.

This weekend is a big one for music festivals with Lovebox and Latitude both taking place, which means all thoughts have turned to suitable festival attire here at LGHQ.

LGHQ is buzzing with excitement this week with the launch of The Lulu Guinness Paint Project looming. On Thursday night the worlds of fashion and art will unite when Lulu and digital artist Joseph Steele join forces to collaborate on a spectacular live event.
The project sees Lulu and Joseph create a limited edition collection of 180 unique clutch bags, each signed and numbered by Steele and Lulu herself. Featuring a unique 'paint splatter' design created by an innovative paint explosion technique, each 'Hug and Hold' clutch is an authentic piece of artwork as well as a stylish clutch bag. Priced at £295 and available in black, stone and red, with Steele's signature paint splatters in contrasting tones, this limited edition bag is perfect for carrying your ipad, purse and essential red lipstick in style. Choose from 'In the red', 'I see a black bag and I want it painted red' and 'Paint the town red'; your own portable piece of art!

Kris Jenner says she and husband Bruce are not getting a divorce.
Unless. of course, it might get ratings.
After the National Enquirer reported earlier this week that Kris and Bruce Jenner are headed for divorce, Kris told E! News that her bond with her husband of more than two decades is actually stronger than ever.
That's what happens when husband and wife go to the same plastic surgeon.
"I said, 'Honey, I think we're getting a divorce,'" she told E! of how she reacted when she first heard about the story. "He said, 'Honey don't bug me with this. I'm at the hobby store buying helicopter parts.'"
Ha Ha, oh that Bruce. What a regular, freakishly stretchy, guy.
Kris added that she and Bruce are used to shrugging off ridiculous stories focused on their made-up marital woes.
"We just laugh it off," she said. "We love each other and just laugh about it."
What they really laugh about is how their family makes millions of dollars without having any talent.
"These kind of stories have been circulating for the last couple of years. We're absolutely not filing for divorce. Everything is great. We feel very blessed as a family. If we had to chase down and comment on every rumor we'd be working overtime."

The following is an excerpt from our 2011 Annual Report.
As lawmakers embark on an ambitious schedule to create a health care exchange required under the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act by 2014 and a Vermont single-payer system by 2017, Gifford is mindful of its role as a community care provider.
The laws seek to bend the health care cost curve, in part through information technology, advanced primary care and payment reform.
Through the implementation of Vermont Blueprint for Health initiatives, Gifford is embarking on reform initiatives including care coordination for the chronically ill and recognition of Gifford's five primary care practices as Patient-Centered Medical Homes.
The medical center has chosen an electronic medical record (EMR) vendor and is progressing toward both the installation of an EMR system and meeting federal requirements for "meaningful use" of electronic health records (EHRs). EMRs are internal electronic medical records. EHRs can be viewed by appropriate outside entities, including specialists and providers from other hospitals.
Gifford's modest budget requests and responsible spending also align with reform, notes Trustee Paul Kendall, who actively follows reform legislation.
But the non-profit community medical center is by choice not at the forefront of reform efforts.
Gifford Administrator Joe Woodin likens health care reform to a passing ship. Where others might be quick to jump on – appropriately, the region's larger health care providers – Gifford is waiting to ensure the medical center commits to the best choice for
Gifford's size, patients and rural area.
"Gifford is more inclined to stay on the dock and wait for the boat to come around on health care reform," Joe says. "It takes a lot of fortitude to humbly wait for the boat to make a reiteration."
"We continue to be watchful of what's going on and gradually position ourselves to do
what is right and appropriate," agrees Paul, noting some initiatives like information
technology upgrades can require huge investments of time and financial resources.
Gifford also strives to be a voice in discussions leading up to reform legislation. Leadership is suggesting cost-saving ideas the state could pursue now. They continue to set a standard
for financial stability and maintaining strong relationships with other hospitals, state and federal lawmakers, and health care organizations, like Bi-State Primary Care and the Vermont Association (VAHHS).
VAHHS represents the state's nonprofit hospitals before lawmakers and the Green Mountain Care Board, which was created by the Legislature in 2011 to oversee the creation of a single payer Vermont system. Bea Grause, VAHHS president and chief executive officer, sees small hospitals' role in health care reform as one of preserving local access to high-quality care.
"Hospitals are seeking to create reform opportunities by working with the Green Mountain Care Board and federal lawmakers that will balance the need to contain costs with the need to ensure sufficient revenue that will help hospitals meet their local missions," she says. "Issues such as recruitment and retention of physicians and other health professionals, improving quality, ensuring access and long-term financial sustainability are just a few of the challenges small hospitals will face as Vermont and the entire industry prepare for a decade of continued change on all levels."
Gifford's work with Bi-State Primary Care in part addresses the recruitment piece.
Bi-State Primary Care is a nonprofit membership organization of Vermont and New Hampshire rural health care providers working to support primary care practices in medically under-served areas. Its members represent more than 175,000 Vermonters. This equates to one in four residents, or 46 percent of Medicaid enrollees and 52 percent of the state's uninsured.
The organization is working on Gifford and small, rural primary care practices' behalf to improve access by recruiting providers to underserved areas. They are also working on health information exchanges and quality improvement initiatives.
The ultimate challenge the state – and likely hospitals by default – will face for successful health care reform, however, will be answering the question: "What can we afford?"
"There are a lot of uncomfortable issues with health care reform that we don't talk about. The most common issue is 'what can we afford,'" Joe says, hoping lawmakers will address that question. If they don't, it will fall on hospitals, which will be given limited funds to provide care. They will have to make tough choices on what care they can afford to

Source: Lady Gaga to perform at inaugural ball
Published: Sunday, January 20, 2013 at 6:31 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, January 20, 2013 at 6:31 a.m.
WASHINGTON - Watch out Beyonce and Katy Perry. There's another diva set to perform during the inauguration festivities — Lady Gaga.
A person familiar with the inauguration tells The Associated Press that the pop star will perform at Tuesday's ball for President Barack Obama's staffers. The source spoke on condition of anonymity because that person wasn't authorized to publicly reveal the information.
The staff ball is typically a private affair. During the last inauguration festivities, Jay-Z reportedly performed for that event.
According to one attendee, Jay-Z rapped a riff on one of his hit songs, "99 Problems but George Bush Ain't One," to the delight of the throngs of young staffers who worked to elect Obama in 2008.

Bradenton man shot to death in car
Published: Sunday, December 9, 2012 at 5:57 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, December 9, 2012 at 5:57 p.m.
BRADENTON - A Bradenton man was shot and killed early Sunday morning as he sat in his car in what police are calling a random act of violence.
Bradenton Police say Rene Salinas, 31, was in a vehicle at the intersection of 27th Street East and 13th Avenue in Bradenton at about 3:15 a.m. when the shooting occurred. Salinas was trying to turn north onto 27th Street East when someone in a vehicle headed westbound on 13th Avenue shot at Salinas, hitting him.
A passenger in Salinas' vehicle, who was not injured, described the other car as a light-colored four-door sedan. That car continued west on 27th Avenue after the shooting.
Salinas was hit with one bullet and pronounced dead at the scene.
In a release sent out about the incident, BPD Capt. Warren Merriman said the shooting was not associated with a robbery or act of road rage, but a "senseless, random act of violence."
Salinas leaves behind a wife and five children, Merriman said.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call BPD Det. James Curulla at 932-9311, or Crime Stoppers at 866-634-8477.

ROUZERVILLE — Two people — both with ties to local law enforcement — are dead after a murder-suicide at a home on Mar Penn Avenue in Rouzerville Tuesday evening.
John Fleagle, 50, shot and killed his wife Cathy Fleagle, 45, with a handgun in their home at 13878 Mar Penn Ave. around 5 p.m., according to Pennsylvania State Police. The couple lived in a lower level apartment, according to a state police news release sent this morning.
John Fleagle also shot Cathy Fleagle's 18-year-old son Mitchell Robinson in the arm. He was taken to a Maryland hospital, but additional information about his injury or condition was not available this morning, police said.
John Fleagle then shot and killed himself, according to police.
Law enforcement
Due to Cathy Fleagle's affiliation with the Washington Township Police Department, the investigation was turned over to state police, according to the news release. At the time of her death, she was an administrator for the department.
John Fleagle served with the Blue Ridge Fire and Rescue Squad and local law enforcement agencies. He was a former Washington Township police officer.
A motive is unknown and the investigation is ongoing.

Editorial: Making the most of Michigan Supreme Court Justice Diane Hathaway's exit
Date: 01/08/2013
Source: Detroit Free Pess
Stick a fork in Michigan Supreme Court Justice Diane Hathaway: She's done -- and high time.
Hathaway, who stunned political odds makers four years ago by unseating incumbent Chief Justice Cliff Taylor, bowed to overwhelming pressure Monday when she submitted her resignation scarcely halfway into her eight-year term.
The coup de grace was a 19-page complaint in which the state Judicial Tenure Commission called for Hathaway's immediate suspension, charging that she had committed criminal fraud, violated the federal money laundering statute, cheated on her joint income taxes, and repeatedly lied to the commission in a futile effort to cover her tracks.
But Hathaway's credibility had been eroding steadily since last May, when WXYZ-TV reported that she and her husband, lawyer Michael Kingsley, had transferred houses in Grosse Pointe and Florida to Kingsley's children shortly before obtaining permission to complete the short sale of a third house they owned in Grosse Pointe. Her legal troubles mounted in November, when the U.S. Justice Dept. filed suit to seize the $664,000 Florida house Hathaway and her husband, lawyer Michael Kingsley, had temporarily deeded to Kingsley's daughter for $10. The criminal allegations outlined Monday in the JTC's list of particulars made Hathaway's continued participation in the business of Michigan's highest court unthinkable.
Michigan's constitution gives Gov. Rick Snyder the exclusive authority to appoint Hathaway's replacement -- and there's little doubt he'll exploit the opportunity to augment the 4-3 majority Republican-nominated justices enjoyed before Democrat Hathaway's abrupt retirement.
But Snyder could establish a far more important legacy by adopting the recommendation of the state's bipartisan commission on state Supreme Court elections, which has urged the governor to choose his next nominee from a list of three to five candidates vetted, in public hearings, by a panel of respected lawyers and lay people.
The commission, co-chaired by then-state Supreme Court Justice Marilyn Kelly and U.S. Court of Appeals Judge James Ryan, spent more than a year exploring ways to insulate the ostensibly non-partisan state Supreme Court from the corrupting influence of Michigan's political parties and the special interests that bankroll them. An executive order establishing a governor-appointed nominating panel would be a modest but important step.
Embracing the Kelly-Ryan's recommendation that candidates for the court be vetted publicly by bar and community leaders, rather than privately by party power brokers, should be a no-brainer for a governor who has described himself repeatedly as a champion of greater transparency and accountability in state government.

Katherine Webb will star in a new reality show called "Celebrity Diving."
No, I'm not making this up. Yes, they really are doing a show about celebrities jumping into a pool. No, I don't know that there has ever been such a ridiculous idea tried on television since "Cop Rock."
TMZ reported Tuesday that the reigning Miss Alabama USA -- also known as the girl Brent Musburger made famous during the college football national championship game -- will be a contestant on the upcoming ABC show "Celebrity Diving."
That's right -- she'll be in a swimsuit. That sound you hear is Brent Musburger frantically reprogramming his DVR.
TMZ said the cast will include Detroit Lion Ndamukong Suh, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Nicole Eggert, Kendra Wilkinson, Louie Anderson, Drake Bell, Chuy from the E! Network, and Keshia Knight Pulliam.
Right -- Ndamukong Suh is still playing in the NFL and has a huge contract. The Lions must be thrilled he'll be throwing himself headfirst into a pool for cash and prizes.

Couple lets coffee drinkers choose baby name
Published: Wednesday, June 26, 2013 at 12:01 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, June 26, 2013 at 12:01 p.m.
WEST HAVEN, Conn. (AP) — A Connecticut couple has named its baby with help from customers at a Starbucks coffee shop.
Twenty-five-year-old Jennifer James and 24-year-old Mark Dixon of West Haven told the New Haven Register (http://bit.ly/1adT5d6 ) they had been struggling between two names for the boy they are expecting in September, so they decided to put it to a vote.
They placed signs at the Starbucks on the New Haven Green, where they are regulars, asking people to vote for either the name Jackson or Logan.
The couple said it got the idea for the voting based on a system used by that Starbucks location, where customers cast votes for the store's employee of the month.
"We saw that and thought we might as well see how it works," Dixon said.
They received about 1,800 votes in the coffee cup serving as a ballot box. The couple said voters did not limit themselves to the two choices they were given.
"We've gotten Obama, Jebediah, Lincoln. Someone put (a) write-in, Webster," James said.
James said that when she realized Dixon would sound similar to Jackson, she began pulling for the name Logan.
"I don't know why I didn't realize the 'Jackson Dixon' thing, but I think once I realized that, he was going to be Logan no matter what," she said.
The name Logan also was favored by the customers, but ultimately both names won.
The couple said it will name the baby Logan Jackson Dixon.

This was the second time I saw Phish. The day was unbearably hot, and the cops were unbelievably prevalent. People were getting thrown on their backs just for standing around. Every time someone got arrested, angry Phish fans (like myself) circled around the scene, objecting to the actions taking place in front of us. Two of my personal friends were given citations that day, and another was even arrested and taken "downtown." After all the drama, I decided to escape the heat by buying a bottle of water for a buck and sitting in the car with the AC full blast.
Somewhere in between those two actions, I completely lost my ticket. Looked everywhere around the car, in the car, under the car, where I bought the water, but I never found the freakin ticket! Had to buy another one at the box office, and thank goodness it didn't sell out. I got inside the show in plenty of time.
First set had a great setlist, but listening to it on CD is
a whole different story. I don't think the first set will go down in history for being one of their better sets. Second set, they came out and just nailed "Story of the Ghost", and did a great "Prince Caspian." It was a show equipped with a great audience and a beautiful, starry night.
