If you're planning to set up a permanent blind on a new hunting lease or property, Tony Vandemore, guide and part owner of Habitat Flats in central Missouri, recommends taking your time.
"One of the biggest things in selecting a location for a permanent blind is to not get in a hurry," says Vandemore. "I'll rarely put a new blind up in an area that we have just developed; you really need to wait and see which spots the birds like on that farm."
Instead, Vandemore will watch a new property for a year while hunting it with MOMarsh layout boats or ground blinds. After the season is over, he can make a decision for placing a permanent blind based on which area the birds favored.
Vandemore adds that when setting the blind, he is ever cognizant of the sun and the cover surrounding the blind. In a small timber hole, Vandemore will set the blind on the east side so the sun is always at his back in the morning. For pits in open areas, Vandemore runs blinds north to south, which allows groups to hunt the west side of the blind in the morning and the east side in the afternoon.
"For me, there is nothing more frustrating than looking into the sun while I am hunting," says Vandemore.

Durham man says he was sleepwalking when son died
Published: Saturday, November 9, 2013 at 5:36 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, November 9, 2013 at 5:36 p.m.
DURHAM (AP) — A North Carolina man accused of killing his 4-year-old son plans to argue he was unconscious at the time of the crime.
Joseph Anthony Mitchell rejected a plea agreement Friday and pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder and two counts of attempted first-degree murder. His trial is set for March.
Young Blake Mitchell was suffocated three years ago in the family's Durham home. Two other children told investigators they fought off their father as he tried to cover their mouths or faces.
Defense attorney Jay Ferguson has filed notice that Mitchell plans to use the so-called "sleepwalking defense" at his trial. That's when defendants argue they're not guilty of a crime because they were sleepwalking and weren't aware they had done anything wrong.

Dana Reeve died at a New York cancer hospital Monday night.
She was the widow of actor Christopher Reeve, best known for his role as the big screen's "Superman".
Mrs. Reeve was just 44 years old when she died from lung cancer--after living a smoke-free life.
The news of Dana Reeve's death from lung cancer has many people wondering how a woman who never smoked could have gotten sick.
The fact is, it could happen to any woman, at any time.
She was a talented singer and actress in her own right--but we'll all remember Dana Reeve for being a super wife to Superman.
Her husband, actor Christopher Reeve, died in 2004 from complications of his paralysis from a horse riding accident.
Less than a year later, Dana Reeve found out she had lung cancer.
"Well, it isn't fair but I think I learned a long time ago that life isn't fair," she said.
Many of us were surprised to hear that a woman in her early 40s could be diagnosed with a cancer most of us associate with smoking.
"There are these cases, especially common in women, that get no small cell lung cancer and have never smoked, or never been around smokers," says Dr. Paul Bilodeau is a medical oncologist at MCG.
He's diagnosed hundreds of lung cancers.
Dr. Bilodeau says most lung cancers can be traced back to a cause…and that that should be our focus.
"I think that some attention needs to be refocused on smoking cessation, let's prevent those that we can prevent."
But again, Dana Reeve was among those 11,000 non-smoking women diagnosed with the disease each year...and sadly, the survival rates are grim.
"I'm afraid until we have genetic mutations or know the cause in non smokers, we feel powerless to do anything to prevent it."
Again, the frustrating thing about lung cancer is that there's no early detection of it, and there's no real treatment or cure.
So until then, the best thing you can do is stop smoking--and stay away from secondhand smoke.

SAN FRANCISCO -- Reds ace Johnny Cueto lasted just eight pitches before leaving Game 1 of his National League Division Series start against the Giants on Saturday.
The Reds announced that Cueto has back spasms and is listed as day to day.
The Cy Young Award candidate grimaced in pain while delivering a pitch to the Giants' Marco Scutaro with one out in the first inning. After consultation with the Cincinnati training staff and manager Dusty Baker, the right-hander walked off the mound -- as an AT&T Park crowd cheered.
Reds General Manager Walt Jocketty told TBS reporter Tom Verducci that the team is hopeful Cueto will be able to start Game 3 on Tuesday in Cincinnati.
Mat Latos, who had been scheduled to start Game 3, entered Saturday night's game in relief. Cueto went 19-9 with a 2.78 ERA during the regular season. He ranked among the National League leaders in wins (third), ERA (third) and innings pitched (fifth.)

The first set here features the emergence of the short-Curtain, an enthusiastic trombone solo by Fish in I Didn't Know, along with a common Wilson>Peaches medley. The set-closing Bowie, while nice and long, isn't anything particularly out of the ordinary for the time period, nor for the long run.
However, as the band got back on stage for the start of the final set (possibly the 3rd, as the band announces that they will take a short break after YEM), the bar music is on and Trey asks "who are these guys". Well, apparently an onlooker had begun to heckle the band who was in a band himself and wanted Phish to play some "God damn Willie". Trey interacts with the drunks for a bit and finally relents, saying "alright, you play the f-ckin song man". So, the guy, named John Carlton, gets up onstage and decides to add vocals to Phish. Trey announces the "guest star" who is going to "belt you in the face".
John Carlton, who seems to be pretty intoxicated, sounds very much like the Dude of Life, and screams his way through Mustang Sally. Amazingly, it doesn't sound half bad, as Phish is pretty good at playing the backing band, although the vocals get to be a touch over the top. Not to be kept off the stage, the "man of many talents" moves his way over to the drums, where he plays drums to a trombone-laden Sneakin Sally featuring calls for Fish to "play [his] bone".
To add to the craziness of the set, Trey then announces that they'll play their version of Johnny B. Goode, entitled "Johnny B. Sane". A wonderful version of Sanity ensues and the place explodes after La Grange. Closing the show, the band elects to play Harry Hood even though the audience protests the reggae (?) choice. I like the closing jam to this Hood. Trey was in his story-telling period, and he finds 4 notes that work and meanders about them for a while, with Page following suit. A nice way to end a slightly off-the-wall set.
Musically, this set doesn't feature much for the veteran listener, although the Hood saves this show from being a total pass-over. The funny John Carlton incident is worth listening if you're a fan of banter in the early years. Otherwise, sound quality isn't all that high and there isn't anything that stands out from this show that can't be found in better form elsewhere.

Hello Everybody,
This is an emergency post. I am writing it in Dubai. I am on my way to Rome and then London, only have 50 minutes left in my EeePC and no Dubai power adapter. The joys of travelling...
Some dubious ads have appeared in Free Software Magazine. I have received reports of a "virus scanner" (fake) with a malicious redirection. We currently use two ad networks, IDG and Adsense, and I don't have any way to figure out which one is giving problems. In any case, having worked with both of them, I am 100% sure this is something that simply slipped the net.
Please let me know, by email or as a comment here (email input AT and then freesofwaremagazine.com) the URL you get redirected to. This is a crucial piece of information.
I won't be able to investigate further for the next 24 hours. So... any help will be more welcome.
Thank you for your understanding and help!
Tony Mobily
Tony - thank you so much for
Tony - thank you so much for your post. Adify's Customer Service team has identified the source of the virus scanner and stopped it. You should also have received email from us to you at the address you noted in your post.
Best, Jordan Shultz, Adify
I've just landed... I can see that the issue is being addressed.
Thanks a lot!
more dubious ads
I for one find the ads selling proprietary software on freesoftwaremagazine.com to be of dubious intent.
take their money
I'm not sure but I think I detect some irony in your comment. Anyway Tony has said he will only "write it once" so here's his response to a previous comment on this subject.
I say that if a proprietary company is stupid enough to advertise to a bunch of people who are at least aware (or getting there) of the pitfalls of the licencing then they get what they pay for - nothing.
Smile nicely, take their money and run, I say.
I said I only wrote it once...
I said I'd only write it once... so, I will keep my word.

OAKLAND -- Bartolo Colon wants to pitch for the A's next season, and it sounds as though he wouldn't mind sticking around for a while.
"If they give me the opportunity again, yes, I would like to do that," Colon, 40, told the San Francisco Chronicle on Friday morning through interpreter Ariel Prieto.
When asked how long he thought he could pitch, Colon told the Chronicle three more years.
Colon is a free agent, but he assembled an 18-6 record and 2.65 ERA this season, so he's bound to get attention on the open market.
Manager Bob Melvin and general manager Billy Beane both said they hope Colon returns to Oakland in 2014.
"I know he enjoyed his time here. He likes it here," said Melvin, adding that he didn't discuss the future with Colon. "He's been really a stabilizing force for us here, and to have the year like he had this year, I don't think anybody could have envisioned that. It was just phenomenal, particularly at his age."
Beane said "I'd like to hope so" when asked if Colon would come back.
Beane was asked if he could sign Colon to the same deal he agreed to for 2013 -- $3 million plus performances bonuses.
"I wasn't going to get specific, but Bart's been great for us for two years," Beane said. "When you look at the numbers and what he provided for us, we'd be foolish even at this early juncture not to say we wouldn't have interest in bringing him back. He's great on the mound. He's sort of a nice, relaxing personality to have in the clubhouse amongst a bunch of kids. We haven't talked about each guy in detail, but based on the way the question was framed, that hypothetical would be a yes."
Even without Colon, the A's appear to have six solid rotation candidates in Sonny Gray, Jarrod Parker, A.J. Griffin, Dan Straily, Brett Anderson and Tommy Milone.
Gray said he'd love to see Colon as part of the rotation mix.
"It'd be awesome, hopefully it works out," Gray said. "I don't think you could find a single player in our clubhouse who wouldn't want to have him back."
Right fielder Josh Reddick also had one on his right wrist. Reddick injured the wrist sliding into a wall in Houston during the second week of the season and was never completely healthy after that.
"We'd like to take care of all this now," Beane said. "As a general manager, you don't want to find out in December about a surgery that could have been addressed in October."
At the same time, he is optimistic about the future of the organization.
"There is a lot of faith in the clubhouse in what Billy (Beane) and Bob (Melvin) can do," he said. "They know what we need. And they have a track record for getting those needs filled."

Lee was ruled out for the remainder of the season after a torn right hip flexor in Game 1 on April 20, confirmed by an MRI. It was determined he didn't need surgery, a diagnosis confirmed by a second opinion he received in Philadelphia.
Lee has been to every practice and every shootaround.

I had this problem for a very long time and did everything everybody suggested here and other websites. Talk about banging your head against the wall. I finally decided to try and tackle it one more time(probably wouldnt have been the last time)
It had nothing to do with firewalls or windows not able to see the PS3 it had everything to do with the router itself. I have a Netgear WNR2000 router I decided to update it and check the settings What I found was the "Enable Wireless Isolation" box was enabled and what happens is: (copy and pasted from http://www.routerlogin.net)
If checked, the wireless client under this SSID can only access internet and it can't access other wireless clients even under the same SSID, Ethernet clients or this device. Other clients can't access the wireless client, either.
After unchecking that silly little box, my ps3 was finally able to find the media server. Talk about jumping for joy. For those that have this similar problem you might want to see if your router has this function. I sincerely hope nobody ever has to go through my same headaches and I hope this works for you as well.

MINTURN - Congratulations are in order for the 12 "Minturn Mutts" that have been selected as the feature dogs for the 2013 Minturn Mutts Calendar. Fifty six dogs came for the open call last August at the Minturn Community Fund in hopes of being one of the feature mutts. A release party will take place tonight at Kirby Cosmo's BBQ Bar (named after the owners dog), at 474 Main Street in Minturn. Included in the celebration will be appetizers, door prizes, and live music from Kevin Heinz of KHz Music. The "Cover Mutt" will be revealed and calendars will also be on sale for $15 each.
"In our second year, taking the extra step of having callbacks so that we can capture the dogs with a Minturn landmark made an improved difference," said Jodi Jahrling, executive director of the Minturn Community Fund. "Though we sold out of calendars last year, we think this addition will help us sell even more this year. Believe it or not, we even sold calendars online to folks as far away as Virginia!"
One hundred percent of the proceeds benefit the Minturn Community Fund and will be used for their Neighbors in Need program. You may be familiar with "Minturn Mondays" where a household staple is given out the last Monday of every month. Past Minturn Mondays have included milk, eggs, bread, and even toilet paper. The funds are also used for family emergency relief and scholarships.
All 56 dogs were voted on by a group of unbiased people (most lived out of state) so no one knew the owners or the dogs. Basic information completed in an application was shown to the judges: dog's name, age, breed,and favorite toy, as well as the recent photo of the dog from the open call.
"It's so great to see everyone embrace this calendar, we sold out on ads too," said Jahrling. "Minturn is a dog friendly town. It's a natural fit to showcase that."
For more information or to order the calendar online call 970-306-6553 or visit www.minturnmatters.org.

About the Book
"A killer of a thriller with a wonderfully human, perfectly rendered heroine at its center….A terrific read."
—Dennis Lehane, author of Shutter Island and The Given Day<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
"First-rate crime fiction."
—Washington Post (a Best Book of the Year)
The raves keep pouring in for #1 New York Times bestselling author Peter De Jong's Shadows Still Remain. James Patterson calls it, "An absolute knockout and a half," and praises De Jong's fascinating, endearing, but seriously flawed heroine, NYPD Detective Darlene O'Hara, as, "One of the freshest, hippest detective creations in many a year." Every fan of serious crime fiction will agree that this author is a major find.
A Beautiful Woman, Missing
New York City, 2005. Thanksgiving weekend. A topless Kate Moss peers down from a billboard over rain-spattered Houston Street. Escaping a troubled past, Francesca Pena came to the city and reinvented herself. At New York University, her beauty and charisma are the envy of her privileged pals, yet none knows the real Francesca—who, after a night of drinking, is now missing.
A High-Stakes Gamble
Detective Darlene O'Hara of the Seventh Precinct and her partner, Serge "K." Krekorian, set out to find Pena. But when the case turns high-profile and Homicide is called in, O'Hara—who has an eighteen-year-old son she saddled with the name Axl Rose O'Hara, and whose binge drinking exacerbates the massive chip on her shoulder—refuses to let go. Risking both her and K.'s careers, she defies NYPD brass and Homicide legend Patrick Lowry to secretly pursue her own investigation.
A Desperate Chase—and a Chilling Twist
Following a deadly trail that leads from NYU's ivory towers to Brooklyn tattoo parlors, from a skanky strip club to a whitewashed boutique run by a Korean madam, O'Hara closes in on her prey. But she has to move fast, because Lowry and the NYPD are about to make a devastating mistake that will leave the real killer free.

"A hectic, witty and emotionally satisfying thriller. . . . [O'Hara is] a terrific character, fresh and funny and infuriating. . . . A stunner." — Chicago Tribune
"First-rate crime fiction. . . . The book is alive with the sounds and smells and sins of New York. . . . When the crime-fiction aficionados set out to pick their best first novel of the year, SHADOWS STILL REMAIN will be a contender." — Washington Post

"SHADOWS STILL REMAIN is a killer of a thriller with a wonderfully human, perfectly rendered heroine at its center. You can't help but fear for her and root for her in equal measure. A terrific read." — Dennis Lehane

According to Buck (this could include Aspas) we are going to be signing 4 more players - a striker, 2 cb's and an attacking midfielder. This is good but I am certain we need another left back as well.
Has anybody else read this the same as me, and do you think we have other priorities?
I've not seen any direct quotes suggesting what our priority list is, however I'd doubt anyone at the club (anyone who actually knows that is) is likely to publish the shopping list, even with names left off.
For me its one thing to identify what we need right now, but we also have to consider who is going out the door to raise funds, because we're looking to upgrade, because they need loan to improve, or because they want an exit themselves.
If everyone stays, then for me, one CB, one LB, and one striker, in that order is the priority. If Skrtel goes then we'll need a 2nd CB to come in. If Downing and or Assaidi go, then a winger, and if we're shopping for an attacking midfielder, then someone is likely to be moving on, either for good, or on a loan period.
As I said in the other thread, these quotes are from Rodgers.

About the Book
"Wild, mesmerizing, perversely witty….A Valentine from hell."
—<?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Janet Maslin, New York Times<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
The publication of Joe Hill's beautifully textured, deliciously scary debut novel Heart-Shaped Box was greeted with the sort of overwhelming critical acclaim that is rare for a work of skin-crawling supernatural terror. It was cited as a Best Book of the Year by Atlanta magazine, the Tampa Tribune, the St. Louis Post Dispatch, and the Village Voice, to name but a few. Award-winning, #1 New York Times bestselling Neil Gaiman of The Sandman, The Graveyard Book, and Anansi Boys fame calls Joe Hill's story of a jaded rock star haunted by a ghost he purchased on the internet, "relentless, gripping, powerful." Open this Heart-Shaped Box from two-time Bram Stoker Award-winner Hill if you dare and see what all the well-deserved hoopla is about.
Judas Coyne is a collector of the macabre: a cookbook for cannibals . . . a used hangman's noose . . . a snuff film. An aging death-metal rock god, his taste for the unnatural is as widely known to his legions of fans as the notorious excesses of his youth. But nothing he possesses is as unlikely or as dreadful as his latest purchase, an item he discovered on the Internet:
I will sell my stepfather's ghost to the highest bidder . . .
For a thousand dollars, Jude has become the owner of a dead man's suit, said to be haunted by a restless spirit. But what UPS delivers to his door in a black heart-shaped box is no metaphorical ghost, no benign conversation piece. Suddenly the suit's previous owner is everywhere: behind the bedroom door . . . seated in Jude's restored Mustang . . . staring out from his widescreen TV. Waiting—with a gleaming razor blade on a chain dangling from one hand . . .

If they pay for a ticket? I don't know how it works at that point. But it's really interesting how much money is tossed around when none of the bands are getting paid. Quite the racket. I wonder if anyone's investigated how all of this works. Lastly, who are these people paying for SXSW badges? Might need to start a new thread to see if anyone can testify to buying one.

USA, 2012, 89 Minute Running Time
Genre/Subjects: Documentary, Horror, Mystery, Religious
Screens Friday & Saturday, March 22nd & 23rd at 10pm in The Watching Hour!
Digital presentation - In 1975 the Lutz family vacated their home of 28 days at 112 Ocean Avenue in Amityville, New York. Leaving behind all their belongings, the family claimed to be the victims of a terrifying haunting in their new home, which had just been the site of a grisly family murder. The Lutzes penned a book that was later turned into a classic horror film (which will screen alongside this one at SDFF) that shocked America and led to many explorations into the validity of their story, keeping the sensational tale not far from the front of the public's consciousness.
In the documentary My Amityville Horror, a new voice emerges after years of silence. Oldest son Daniel Lutz, now in his 40s, seems to have been affected for life by the incident in Amityville. He offers his firsthand account of the haunting, reunites with the various mediums who took turns investigating the case, and even returns to Ocean Avenue for another peek at the house so badly burned into his childhood psyche. Daniel not only discusses the paranormal but dips into his caustic feelings for his now-deceased stepfather, George, and presents a picture of a family duress just as terrifying to a child as levitating beds and bloody walls.
Along with Daniel's story, My Amityville Horror presents new interviews and archival footage with many involved in the original investigation, and explores with a fresh set of eyes a tale that left generations wary of home ownership.

DOHA, Qatar — The 18th U.N. climate-change summit is taking place in the small but immensely wealthy Gulf emirate of Qatar, the largest per capita emitter of greenhouse gases in the world. Delegates, press, dignitaries and the legions of low-paid, foreign guest workers here at the opulent Qatar National Convention Center all pass under an enormous spider, a 30-foot-high cast-bronze statue called "Maman," by the French-American sculptor Louise Bourgeois. It was chosen by the emir's wife, and snapped up for a reported $10 million.
The Obama administration has been accused, rightly, of derailing the U.N. climate negotiations in recent years.
Here at the summit, referred to as the COP 18 (18th Conference of Parties), I met up with climate scientist Bill Hare, one of the lead authors of a new World Bank report, "Turn Down the Heat: Why a 4 Degree C Warmer World Must Be Avoided." With the U.S. media focused on the so-called fiscal cliff, I asked Hare how the world's historically largest emitter of greenhouse gases, the United States, could be expected to contribute to a global fund to combat climate change:
"We have a climate cliff. ... We're facing a carbon tsunami, actually, where huge amounts of carbon are now being emitted at a faster rate than ever. And it's that carbon tsunami that's likely to overwhelm the planet with warming, sea-level rise and acidifying the oceans."
Just a day after I interviewed Hare, a powerful typhoon hit the Philippines. I spoke with the lead climate negotiator from the Philippines, Naderev Sano, just minutes after the news of the typhoon broke. "It is sobering for us to know that a typhoon like this normally doesn't hit that part of the country," he told me. "In half a century, this is the first time that a typhoon that has crossed as far south as Bopha has." I asked Sano what he was hoping for in Doha:
"The single biggest measure of success in Doha is, first and foremost, the second commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol."
The Kyoto Protocol is the only legally binding global treaty that forces nations to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions. Unless action is taken, it will lapse at the end of this month. Sano explained: "When we reach the first day of 2013, if we don't have any success here in Doha, then we end up with nothing. We end up with a ... system where climate change faces a world that has not found the political will to address the climate crisis."
Another participant at the summit is Kumi Naidoo, the executive director of Greenpeace International. Naidoo wrote before coming to COP 18: "Doha is already infamous for dead-end trade talks. One more failure and it will be forever known as the place where global deals go to die."
At a press conference held here, Naidoo directed his own rhetorical fire hose at the Obama administration. Noting Barack Obama's reference to climate change in his Nov. 6 victory speech, Naidoo said, naming Obama's climate negotiators, "Todd Stern and Jonathan Pershing have come to Doha with their needle stuck in the groove of obstructing the U.N. process, an art they have perfected. It is disrespectful of President Obama to inflict on us two negative negotiators who act as if the comments he made after his election were never made. He should either pick up the phone and tell his delegates to follow his lead or alternatively call them back to Washington." When I asked Pershing to respond to Naidoo, whether he was following President Obama's wishes, he replied, "No comment."

Post subject: implantation or just before period bleeding?
im quite new to this, ive never had a ovulation pain till this cycle which was about cd 16/17 also had a tiny amount of pink cm with a few wee cramps. the following week ive had cramps & uncomfy feeling in my stomach/ below my belly button. exactly a week later ive got a light brown colour in my cm.
ive also had quite sore boobs since the date i think i ovulated, their now a cup size bigger, worse at night & ive noticed more blue veins that seem to keep going up my boobs.
weve been ttc for about a year & ive fooled myself into hoping im pregnant quite a few months now, much to our disaapointment when i get my period.
i had a miscarriage last june, only a day after i got a +. ive had some tests ran & now know i have a cyst on one of my ovaries. i bleed for near a week before, but this was dark brown cm not the light im experiencing. im just wondering if anyone else has had the same symptoms & found out their expecting or could this just be my hormones/cysts playing up. its driving me nuts with all the waiting & i cant really test until my period is due in a week. i fly as cabin crew aswell so many girls, including myself, struggle to get pregnant with the levels of radiation & crazy hours we work.
any information or stories would be great, sorry for the really long post but just need something or someone in the same situation to help!

Busy schedule as local teams make runs
13 locals alive in state tournaments

Entering tournament play Tuesday there are 13 local teams still alive in the various brackets, and that's not counting the swim teams who will have their state championship meets this week. In volleyball three local teams are already at the semifinal stage, while the Cheshire field hockey team will also play its next game in the semis.
Six girls soccer teams will battle in the quarterfinals on Wednesday, including NVL champion Watertown and Class M No. 2 seed Woodland.
And how about the Litchfield girls, who last year made a magical run all the way to the Class S state final (which they lost, 3-0, to Immaculate) as the No. 7 seed. The Cowgirls are back deep in the Class S mix, and host the No. 23 seed on Wednesday for a shot at the state semis.

1 MR IRVING: Very well, my Lord. Mr Rampton may very well wish
2to point to one or two things in it.
3 MR JUSTICE GRAY: Let us see.
4 MR IRVING: The next document, page 9, is the actual
5memorandum. Page 10 is something that I did not have
6before me yesterday, my Lord. It is a translation of the
7following page, page 11 or part of it. If your Lordship
8were just to turn to page 11, I draw your attention to two
9things: first of all, the number at the top, 2653, where,
10at the beginning of the notes or near the beginning of the
11notes to the second volume of my Hitler biography, namely
12Hitler's War, and we are already on manuscript page
132,653. This will give your Lordship an idea of the
14magnitude of the task and I would therefore pray your
15Lordship's indulgence if I have occasionally got a word
16wrong or mistyped a word.
17 MR JUSTICE GRAY: I do not underrate the magnitude of the task
18at all.
19 MR IRVING: I am indebted to you. I have translated note 63.
20Your Lordship will notice that the notes are not in the
21book in this form. Quite simply, the publisher said,
22"Mr Irving, that would add an extra 500 pages on to the
23text", so it went. It is helpful because note 53 refers,
24in this context, to the Schlegelberger document. The staff
25evidence analysis sheet, which is also in this bundle, we
26referred to yesterday. The copies were notarised by
1Dr Robert Kempner, which is not really important, unless
2we get on to the question of who found it first and when
3should he have used it.
4 Then I continue: " Before the International
5Military Tribunal (at Nuremberg) Lammers testified that
6Himmler had told him that he had received from the Fuhrer
7the task of bringing about a Final Solution of the Jewish
8problem, i.e. that 'the Jews were to be evacuated out of
9Germany'". That part is in quotation marks. "Lammers
10wanted to find out for himself, he said, and fixed an
11appointment with Fuhrer whereupon the Fuhrer told me that,
12yes, it was quite right that he had given the evacuation
13order to Himmler, but he did not want to hear any more
14briefings about this Jewish problem during the war".
15 MR JUSTICE GRAY: That is undated.
16 MR IRVING: This is from the transcript of the international
17military tribunal.
18 MR JUSTICE GRAY: No. What I mean is there is no indication in
19the document as to when that was said by Hitler. For all
20we know, it may have been said in 1940 or '41.
21 MR IRVING: I will deal with that point very shortly, my Lord,
22when we skip a page, and we now come to page 12. Your
23Lordship or Mr Rampton might quite well object that it is
24unsatisfactory, that I should produce the quotation from
25the transcript in that form, of course, the Military
26Tribunal transcript. I objected, of course, in exactly
1the same terms yesterday but, if your Lordship is
2interested, I am sure we can obtain the precise page from
3the transcript.
4 Page 12. Two or three years ago, I went to the
5national archives in Washington and looked at the detailed
6verbatim interrogations of the number of people who were
7present at the Wannsee Conference and at the subsequent
8conference, my Lord, which your Lordship will remember was
9on March 6th 1942.
10 MR JUSTICE GRAY: Do you mean Wannsee?
11 MR IRVING: Wannsee on January 20th 1942 -- W-A-N-N-S-E-E
12-- and the subsequent conference, which was held at the
13headquarters of Heydrich on March 6th 1942. I wanted to
14find out what the participants said, what they recalled
15immediately afterwards, after the war. They were
16interrogated in detail by the Americans. We have the
17verbatim transcripts in German and English. I did not
18copy the transcripts, but I typed extracts on the filing
19cards which you will see on pages 13 and 14, my Lord, the
20relevant parts. I have translated them on page 12 which
21I think is all we need to look at today.
22 Cabinet counseller, Dr Hans Ficher of the Reich
23Chancellery (Lammers department) stated that from the
24invitation it was evident that evacuation or sterilisation
25were on the agenda." I skip on to the next
26sentence: "Lammers took this minute to the Fuhrer and
1returned with a memorandum. The discussion of the whole
2affair is to be postponed until after the end of the
3war". That must have been in March 1942. That is the
4opinion of Bohle. "To our horror", and I rely on this
5sentence, my Lord, "we learned that that then continued
6behind the scenes. We learned that that then continued
7behind the scenes".
8 Although Hitler had given this order, leave
9everything until the end of the war, to our horror, they
10learned that it went on behind the scenes, rather like the
11Bruns business, your Lordship will remember. The order
12comes down from Hitler's headquarters.
13 What we are looking for, I would submit, is any
14indication that I have been perverse in putting on this
15kind of document the meaning that I did in my various
16writings and utterances. If I continue now to the next
17statement by Mr Gottfried Bohle, who is also at the Reichs
18Chancellory Department, he testified that he had been
19interrogated about this on more than one occasion. The
20conference, he recalled, was at the headquarters of
21Heydrich's department, the RSHA. Eichmann opened, and
22I am relying on this purely to show that it was not just a
23discussion about the mixed race, my Lord. It was a
24discussion about the Jews as a whole.
25 Eichmann opened with the need for a quick
26solution of the Jewish Question. Bohle told his wife
1afterwards that they had talked of Jews being supplied
2like cattle. One man had objected, one cannot proceed
3against Jews who had behaved correctly, Eichmann's No. 2,
4that was SS van Fuhrer Gunter, said "that comes under our
5police judgment".
6 MR JUSTICE GRAY: I do not at the moment see what bearing that
7has on the issue we are concerned with.
8 MR IRVING: It is an indication where the kind of decisions are
9being taken, my Lord.
10 MR JUSTICE GRAY: I see. Anyway Bohle again?
11 MR IRVING: Bohle in another interrogation said, and I draw
12attention only to the second two sentences, Hitler wanted
13postponement until after the war. "Whether the security
14police knew about the different orders from Hitler,
15I cannot say." In other words, different to what they
16were doing.
17 MR JUSTICE GRAY: Yes.
18 MR IRVING: My Lord, your Lordship may attach no significance
19whatsoever to these documents. I am a historian looking
20at these documents. I submit that it is perfectly proper
21for me to pay attention to them, and it is not perverse
22for me to attach the significance to them that I did and
23the meanings that I did.
24 MR JUSTICE GRAY: Yes.
25 MR IRVING: That is all that I have to submit on this
26Schlegelberger memorandum, my Lord.

SAN JOSE -- A once-moribund power play led the Sharks' offensive resurgence on Thursday night, as San Jose scored twice with the man advantage in the second period and barely held on for a badly needed a 4-3 win over the Los Angeles Kings at HP Pavilion.
Defenseman Matt Irwin scored from outside the circle with 12:53 left in the second period, and Logan Couture followed that with a blast from the point that beat screened Kings goalie Jonathan Quick, as the Sharks won in regulation time for just the second time in the last 11 games.
Midway through the second period, Sharks center Andrew Desjardins changed the game's complexion when he leveled Kings center Colin Fraser with a shoulder check right behind the Los Angeles net. Kings defenseman Jake Muzzin took exception to the hit and started a fight with Desjardins, resulting in a four-minute Sharks' power play.
Muzzin lost the fight and received two minutes for instigating, two minutes for fighting with a visor, a five-minute major for fighting and a 10-minute misconduct. The ensuing power-play goals gave the Sharks a 3-0 lead.
"It's always a positive when you make a play like that. It's just like making an assist," said Desjardins, who watched the goals from the training room as he received repairs to his hands. "Just something to try and get the boys to feed off of, and it worked."
"He turned the game totally around with that hit," Sharks captain Joe Thornton said of Desjardins.
Couture finished with two goals and an assist, and new linemate Brent Burns had one goal and one assist to help the Sharks score four goals in a game for the first time since they beat Vancouver 4-1 on Jan. 27.
Burns played on the wing for the second straight game and did not look out of place on a line with Couture and Thornton. He scored with 8:51 left in the first period, as a shot from the point by Patrick Marleau deflected off Couture right to Burns, who had the empty net right in front of him for a 1-0 Sharks lead.
"It's just a different game, and when you're playing with those two guys, it's pretty fun," Burns said.
Burns, Couture and Thornton generated three of the Sharks' scoring chances in the first period, when they were outshot 16-6 by the Kings. But Burns' goal helped get the momentum back in San Jose's favor.
"He's an animal out there," Couture said of Burns. "He's reckless, but in a good way. He really doesn't have to think. He just goes in there and plays his game."
Goalie Antti Niemi, who will receive the bulk of the workload as the Sharks now embark on a five-game road trip, made 34 saves -- including 16 in the first period and 12 in the third.
The Sharks now have scored four power-play goals in their last four games, which follows a dismal stretch in which the team had four power-play goals in 14 games.
"If you can put one power play goal after another on video and watch it, they're not very pretty anymore," said coach Todd McLellan, who earned his 207th career win with the Sharks, surpassing Ron Wilson. "They're garbage-type goals, and that's how we got them."
Irwin, 25, attempted 10 shots on net in the last two games before Thursday, and his eight shots on net on Sunday against Colorado marked only the 10th time in Sharks history that a defenseman had eight or more shots in a game. Irwin has 18 shots on net in seven games since he was recalled from Worcester, compared with 14 shots in nine games with the Sharks at the start of the season.

We can say it officially now. San Jose has its Hooverville, the modern version of the Depression-era encampments that collected the misery of the homeless.
True, it is a suburban Hooverville, with trash bagged on the street, propane tanks for cooking, campsites distanced from one another. Even the homeless don't like being cramped.
Like the Hoovervilles of the 1930s, however, the encampment rebukes our complacency, reminding us of the fractures in our economic health.
As you drive into downtown on Coleman Avenue from Interstate 880, you can see 70-odd tents blossoming on either side of Spring Street in the city's airport approach zone.
All that is likely to change soon. Located on the city's welcome mat, the encampment is too visible to stay. City officials have scheduled the week of March 4 for a massive cleanup that could cost $40,000.
In the game of "whack-a-mole" that we play with the homeless, the tents and their occupants will migrate elsewhere.
For the moment, the visibility of the encampment off Hedding Street forces us to confront a phenomenon that we'd sooner put out of sight, out of mind.
In his state of the city message, Mayor Chuck Reed noted happily that the Milken Institute had proclaimed the San Jose metropolitan area the best in the country at creating and sustaining economic growth. (The study was actually talking about Silicon Valley, but let's not quibble too much).
Folks left behind
The truth is that there are thousands of folks left behind in that race -- the mentally ill, the drug-addicted, the folks with criminal records.
In the creeks, they were the people who used shopping carts to fish for Chinook salmon. They were the folks who dumped their trash and sewage into the stream. Environmentalists cried foul. The Santa Clara Valley Water District made cleaning up the creeks a top priority. In early January, Caltrans swept the Guadalupe River.
And the homeless moved to the cleared plots of what a half-century ago was a residential neighborhood -- before the jet planes shook the houses to their foundations.
From a not-in-my-backyard point of view, the homeless have landed in a place without too many complaining neighbors.
"The word has gotten out that there's no resistance," said Leslee Hamilton, the executive director of the Guadalupe River Park Conservancy.
I rode my wheezing Nishiki 10-speed past the encampment this week and saw a tired-looking man in his 50s walking toward a tent with a cup of coffee.
"Do they give you any hassle here?" I asked him. "No," he told me, "as long as we stay out of the creek."
Their own code
It struck me that he and his comrades were obeying their own rough zoning code: Stay out off the creek. Protect the field mouse and the fish. Hope for a look the other way.
Just steps away from the developed portions of the Guadalupe River Park, which some saw as our rough-hewn Central Park, the settlement is too visible to ignore.
And many good people are trying to deal with the unwanted settlers. The Emergency Housing Consortium has dispatched its folks. City staffers work hard to find help. It is not a lack of goodwill.
The Hoovervilles of the '30s were political statements, located in places like Central Park in New York City or the shores of the Willamette River in Portland, Ore.
The encampment on Spring Street is a political challenge, too, but one less widely shared than the misery of the Depression.
"It's easy to point fingers at police and just tell them to arrest people," said Councilman Sam Liccardo. "But if you don't have somewhere to push them to, they'll be back."
The Hooverville of the airport approach zone will disappear for a while. The homeless will not. They will gather again under a freeway, or near a creek.
For most of us, they will be out of sight, but they should not be out of mind.

Unspoiled places on Long Island
Despite the development wave that has washed over most of Long Island since World War II, there are plenty of wild places left, large and small -- forests whose timber has never been cut, meadows never farmed, swamps never drained to build houses.

Daniel Jackson - Fictions - Opening Friday September 6, will feature new paintings, including several large canvases in Jackson's hyper-realistic often humorous style. The exhibition runs through the month of September in the Hatch Gallery at the Delaware Center for the Contemoprary Arts.
Artist statement:
For most of my life I have been captivated by many different kinds of art, but in my own work I have always been drawn to illusionism. I feel it in my gut. Realistic images draw me in immediately without engaging my filters. It has always been a goal of mine to marry good painting to good ideas. I mostly paint still-life paintings that are constructed to fool the viewer's eye into believing they are seeing something tangible. Still-life painting is rich in tradition and I get inspiration from contrasting historical painting with my own ideas about material culture. Much of the playfulness in my work lies in examining the transformation that occurs when an ordinary object is elevated to an art object. I find it fascinating how the meaning of an object can be altered by how it is presented. For example, if an artist spends the time to lovingly and meticulously recreate a bad painting, can it now be seen as a good painting? It started as something poorly painted but was transformed through the process of re-painting it into something masterfully painted, yet it still looks like the original painting. What is the source of its goodness or badness? Was it transformed from an object of bad taste to an object of good taste? The challenge I enjoy is trying to present both options at once. Are the seemingly everyday and ordinary objects I choose as my subject matter worth painting? Or are they a display of great taste simply because of the fact that they were painted? Is the animal in the painting stuffed or alive? Is the bowl of fruit ripe or a just a photo? I believe art comes to life when it is open to interpretation and many possible meanings exist simultaneously. Still life is particularly interesting to me because it seems to transform the artist's studio into a laboratory. All of the necessary ingredients are present and all that is required is a hypothesis to test. The magic happens when each element of the painting is carefully placed and presented to create unexpected and new results.
- Daniel Jackson

It's the last day for every school in School District 51, but very few can say it's a day 100 years in the making. There was a centennial celebration at Appleton Elementary School this week, making it the oldest consolidated school in the state.
Multiple generations of families have called Appleton home over the years. Whether they attended for elementary school or high school, there's no question these school walls hold memories for many families.
Health assistant Linda Cueva has a long history with Appleton Elementary. She's worked for the school since 1999, and her children went there, but the roots go much deeper.
"I was a student here, my dad was a student, lots of my aunts and uncles, and my grandmother was a student [at Appleton]," Cueva said.
That's how it is for many of Appleton's students.
"It's multi-generational families that have been through here, and they continue to bring their kids here," Appleton principal Corey Hafey said.
"Probably five or six kids out of every class have a relative who went here," Cueva estimated.
That would make sense for a school that first opened its doors to students in 1911.
In the past century, the school has seen changes. Buildings are gone, and new additions have been added. In 1955, the original school building which housed kindergarteners through high schoolers burned down. Cueva says it was neat to see the community come together to rebuild such a beloved school.
"We have kind of some of the new and kind of some of the old," added Hafey.
Behaviors have changed since the school first opened, too, meaning pulling pranks on the principal isn't always allowed these days. Former Appleton student Al Thorpe recalls have an interesting relationship with his Appleton principal. He says his principal would show off his new car to students in the parking lot, that is, until Thorpe decided to put an end to it. Thorpe loosed some of the lug nuts on his principal's tires.
"When he made his left hand turn, it seemed like the wheels fell off for some reason and he ended up in the ditch," Thorpe said.
Though times have changed, one thing has stayed the same.
"There's a lot of community spirit still entwined in the school's history," Cueva said.
Whether it was the school wide carnivals then, or field day and family picnics now, Appleton has always been a place for the community, and generations of students will continue to choose Appleton and the Appleton family.
"It's a very good school, in a good area, and we're very proud to have that opportunity," Thorpe said. Thorpe's grandson now attends Appleton.
At its end-of-the-year celebration, the school sealed a time capsule filled with student memories that won't open until May of 2037.

Trader Sets Up 'Massive' Options Bet Against Facebook
Ahead of Facebook's earnings Wednesday, one investor has a placed a huge bearish bet in the options market against the company's stock.
Options experts were quick to say that the trade appeared to be by an investor looking to protect against losses in the social networking company's stock, rather than speculate on an outsized decline.
Still, the trade drew attention.
The player paid about $8.3 million for a "massive" chunk of put options, "one of the largest FB trades this year," according to Henry Schwartz, president of Trade Alert LLC, an options data provider.
Buyers of put options tend to profit from declines in the underlying stocks. Traders generally use options to hedge against, or speculate on, stock tumbles.
Monday's trader purchased a fresh slug of 30,000 put options that grant the right to Facebook's shares at $45 by January 2015. With Facebook's stock at just north of $60, the options trade is most profitable should the stock tumble 25% over the next eight months.
Brian Overby, senior options analyst at brokerage TradeKing, called the trade "bullish but nervous," since the options trader appears to be hedging the stock position but still holding on to the shares.
Facebook's stock price rose to all-time highs in early March, but has since skidded about 16%. Shares languished for over after the social network's bungled initial public offering in May 2012, climbing back above the companies $38 IPO price last summer. Facebook rose 3.4% to $61.97 recently.
"If this person owned Facebook stock since inception, it's nearly doubled," he said. "You can kind of understand [a protective options trade] with the run that Facebook has had and the recent volatility," he said.
Investors cheered Facebook's January earnings report that showed its mobile business for the first time made up more than half of Facebook's advertising revenue, which helped to offset a decline of desktop computer usage.
Investors will be watching for the impact of Facebook's recent buying spree: The social network in the first three months of 2014 spent $19 billion on messaging service WhatsApp and bought goggle maker Oculus VR for $2 billion.
Facebook is set to post earnings after the closing bell on Wednesday.

Plus size jeans can take you from family picnics to the clubs when you choose a versatile style that fits just right. Alight scours creations from the best designers, in the latest fashions, to offer you a gorgeous selection of great-looking plus size denim that looks and feels like it was custom made for you. You don't have to sport a muffin top or rock mom jeans anymore. Alight has the materials, sizes, and cuts to flatter any body type.
Have you been disappointed when your online purchases arrive? Maybe you have felt frustration in department store dressing rooms when nothing looks right. Alight understands that plus size jeans are a wardrobe staple, so we make sure you have options for every occasion. With our selection and our guide to choosing the plus size denim that showcases your best features, you will be runway-ready in no time.
Choosing Plus Size Jeans to Complement Your Curves
Finding plus size jeans that complement your body's shape begins with understanding your body type. Now is the time to get brutally honest, so you can look your best. Your curves are more beautiful when you celebrate them, instead of trying to hide them under the wrong fabrics or fit. Designers that work with plus size denim are committed to making sure you love what you see in the mirror, so they have created a variety of styles to accommodate the many differences in women's bodies. From low-rise waists to boot and straight cuts, boy jeans to classic plus size denim, Alight offers you choices that complement your curves.
If your figure is full, you can flatter your curves when you choose Lycra-based materials for your plus size jeans. Classic, stiff denim bulges in some areas and flattens in others, typically in a pattern that is the opposite of attractive. Select a boot-cut leg to give slight flare around the ankles, which will balance out the width of your hips so your whole leg looks long and slim. Darker colors in plus size denim work well, but black jeans are to be avoided. There is nothing that will ruin your look faster than the fade you get after just a few washings.
Tips for Wearing Your Plus Size Jeans in Style
You can be sure your rear will turn heads when you are careful about the cut of the seat in plus size jeans. Choose a triangular design for the yoke, the area between your waist and your rear, so that it will stay snug on your lower back rather than leaving big gaps. Look at the pockets sewn into the seat of the jeans – are they close together or near the side seams? Pockets that are too spread out unnecessarily add the illusion of a wider backside.
A big problem for women who have a petite stature but lots of curves is that the perfect cut up near the waist is matched with legs that drag on the floor. If that's the case when you find gorgeous plus size jeans, go ahead and buy them. It is easy to have plus size denim hemmed, but the waist cannot be changed.
Don't spend another minute in ugly mom jeans. Trust Alight for a complete selection of plus size denim that fits comfortably and looks great.

Proceeds from the concert — the seventh since Hurricane Katrina — benefit Sweet Home New Orleans (www.sweethomeneworleans.org) and Gulf Restoration Network (www.healthygulf.org), two New Orleans-based nonprofits working to support and sustain the region's unique musical and cultural traditions and to protect and restore vital environment and community resources for future generations.
