I know this story arouses a lot of hard feelings, but the Americans reasonably believed that unless we dropped this bomb, the war would never end. Three of my uncles were on ships in the South Pacific when they got news of this incident; they cheered wildly, because they knew it would bring peace.
#2 Aug 6, 2008
My grandpa (a World War II veteran) was on a ship from Europe to Japan when he heard about the bomb. I still remember him telling me how thankful he was that wouldn't have to finish that journey. He always talked about "those poor souls" whenever he spoke of the war.
#3 Aug 6, 2008
My father always said the same thing. He was in the Navy, in the South Pacific, and to his dying day believed that we should be grateful to the bombs for ending the war. An interesting modern parallel is that at the time, we were afraid that if we didn't bomb Japan, they'd do something worse to us...

It saved Jap lives too.
#5 Aug 6, 2008
Loss of life is always terribly tragic but it might have been the only way to end the war.
#6 Aug 6, 2008
has anyone had any success on J-date?
#7 Aug 6, 2008
John Hersey's book "Hiroshima" gives an excellent account of life shortly before and after the bomb was dropped.
#8 Aug 6, 2008
Robin, I am not entirely sure what the historical parallel is here... fighting an organized state with a standing army vs. fighting a global philosophy of anger and desperation does not strike me as the same thing.
#9 Aug 6, 2008
I read Hiroshima. It is devastating. It is easy to say, looking back, that it needed to be done to the end the war, but how does anyone know for sure? Pretend for a moment that your grandparents were on the other side. Pretend for a moment that you're Japanese and never wanted the war in the first place.
#10 Aug 7, 2008
Pretend for a moment that your grandparends were on the receiving end of Japanese atrocities, pretend for a moment that you're Korean, Chinese, Indonesian, American.... pretend for a moment that you never wanted to be on the receiving end of Japanese atrocities, never wanted the war in the first place... Now pretend that had the war continued, Japanese atrocities would have killed 200,000 more innocent Koreans, Chinese, Indonesians, Americans... who never asked to be invaded. Now pretend that the ending of the war requires the loss of exact number of innocent Japanese civilians, including women and children. This is a variation of the trolly problem in philosophy: pretend, by a flick of a switch, you can redirect Japanese atrocities by causing the exact number of loss of life in Japan that they themselves would have inflicted on their innocent neighbors, keeping in mind that Japan is the initiator and aggressor. The answer in my mind is very obvious.
#11 Aug 6, 2009
I did not have grandparents who lived through WWII, so I don't have the obviously deeply emotional association with hiroshima that others have, but I hope if that a president anywhere in the world ever had to make that choice again, there would be a better option.

Korean gangsters need woman spies to service Sex for Japanese soldiers. After that they said Japan pushed them. Funny !
If there were not Korean spies, it would had not happened nuclear bomb.
Who can understand Japan clearly except Korean ? Who did kidnap Japanese and many foreigners to teach language for Korean spies ?
Who are running Bars, Karaoke, Pachinko ... business in Japan except Korean ?
Korean government is the Business men in War. They pull the reaction communist VietNam government to do this business together. Also they are pulling the poor Western countries such as Euroupe, Germany, DenMark,... go same way.
Who could attack Japan except porn star spies that are paid by Korean and War Western Business ?
Do not hide your dirty mind ! Only you want to rob profits and be King of the World.
After Middle East, Iraq, Afganistan, Pakistan,... you are changing to attack Asia, Japan, China by porn star spies, young childrens, poor peoples who have no choice to live with cheap price. For Korean and War Western Business, it is only the Profits and Power show !
Why are you noisy ? Because in fact, you do not have anything. Your mind is just zero !

Time to panic. Somewhere out there is a country that has massive stockpiles of weapons of mass destruction- and has used them to devastate large cities. Oh. wait. Yeah. It's us. That's okay then.

Who are us ?
We are not them. We are Human.
Who can accept that ? Human never accept it.
Human were born by clean and safe conditions.
Look, this time, there are many sickness and virus grow up, H5N1, H1N1, AIDS, cancer,... Dirtiness is the source of sickness and death. They eat dirtily, play dirtily, live dirtily and infect many virus to other peoples. Only they are animals, the undevelope countries like animals. They do not want to change. They do not want to develope. They want to be animals so they can do anything they want like animals that bigger animals eat smaller animals in hundred thousand years ago.
They just want to kill Nature, kill Human and rob all for thier family living.
What a selfish country !

New Copley fire captain sworn in
|Chris Bower, at left, who has been with Copley Fire Department for 12 years, was promoted to captain at the Copley Township Board of Trustees' Nov. 6 meeting. He is shown with Chief Michael Benson, who swore him in.

Trustees approved the promotion following an executive session Oct. 16.
Bower has been active in emergency services for about a quarter of a century, serving with the Copley Fire Department the past 12 years, said Benson.
Following an assessment in which all Copley firefighters participated, Bower "came out on top" to be awarded the promotion, said Benson.
Bower attended the meeting with his wife, Crystal, father and three daughters.
"We are still on the record pace we've been on all year," Benson told trustees during his regular report to trustees regarding his department's activities in October.
He expects the Fire Department to have another "highest-year-ever record" for call volume, he added.
According to his monthly report, his department responded to 197 calls for assistance in October. Year to date, the department has responded to 4 percent more calls than at this time last year.
Police Chief Michael Mier said his department recently worked with safety forces countywide to catch a ring of individuals breaking into cars and restaurants.
"We experienced many thefts in the Montrose area," he said, "and those individuals were actually caught in Montrose.
"We think that arrest probably brought an end to this series of thefts" taking place in several communities across Summit County, he added.
Also at the meeting, trustees opened six bids received for the Janwood Drive culvert replacement project. The nearly 50-year-old culvert is undersized, and its replacement is expected to help improve drainage problems, according to the Summit County Engineer's Office.
The lowest bidder was Rudzik Excavating, of Struthers, whose bid was just less than $64,000.
In other business, trustees approved spending $4,815 for design services needed to upgrade the township's website, continuing with Copley company InfoTeam. The website will be go from Joomla 1.5, which is no longer supported and subject to bugs and security issues, to Joomla 3.x, according to trustees.
"We concurred we like what we have, but we do need the upgrade," said Trustee Helen Humphrys.
Also at the meeting, Service Director Mark Mitchell said the CUE (Community University Education Purchasing Association) has signed an agreement with Cargill for road salt for this season, resulting in a reduction in price from $44.81 to $39.84 per ton. Copley still has to purchase 253 tons on last year's contract before the new pricing will take effect, he added.
In other action, trustees:
- approved orders to remove vegetation and/or debris from properties at 3352 Brenner Road and 4836 Ridgewood Road. Both landowners were sent certified mail requesting maintenance, but the township received no response. If the cleanup does not take place within 10 days, trustees will hire a contractor, with costs entered on the owners' tax duplicates, according to resolutions approved by trustees;
- approved Benson to be a panelist on the Local Government Innovation Fund at the 2014 Ohio Township Association conference next February at no cost to the township;
- accepted donations to the township's Police Department, including $1,950 from the Ohio Attorney General's Office as an initial payment for a drug-use prevention grant; $1,170 from Presentation of Our Lord Orthodox Church for the Share-A-Christmas Fund; and $1,000 from Fairlawn Rotary Foundation Inc. for Safety Town;
- approved spending $4,240 with Ziegler Tire for 10 truck tires, eight rear tires and two steer tires for two 5-ton plow trucks;
- approved a resolution to not object to vacating 0.6 acre of unimproved roadway on Reserve and Fineview avenues; and
- noted the township's Architectural Review Board approved developer Pulte Homes' plans for tree preservation, landscaping and buffering for the Miller Farms subdivision, after four months of planning, according to Planning Director Matt Springer.
Following an executive session, trustees made a conditional offer of employment for part-time firemedic Jonathan Smith.
The board's next meeting is set for Nov. 20 at 6 p.m. at the township offices, 1540 S. Cleveland-Massillon Road.

We did it.
Me. Mom. Two canvases. 6 paint brushes. One large bottle of fine Franciscan wine (thanks for donating to the cause, Dad).
The scene? Pinot's Palette – a tiny artistic oasis nestled amongst a jumble of wine bars, antique shops and vegan eateries in the heart of the Montrose community. (Perhaps this sounds familiar – if so you probably admired my work in this previous post. ;-))
The setup? It is Mom's birthday. She is painting their 10-year old extra-long brown dachsund, J.P. Morgan (like the bluegrass song, not the bank). Morgan and I share a birthday. I'm not sure who feels more, um, honored by this.
And I, of course, am painting the avian king himself, Sir Pearl.
Check. It. Out.
Of course the critical mass moment arrived when it came time for the world famous art critic to inspect our work.

How to Take Pleasure from the Little Things
Reader Comments (56)
LOL!!!! i do the exact same thing when i get an awesome shave. its nice to know that i'm not the only one who does it. unfortunately, none of my co-workers want to touch my baby smooth skin either.
Did you spend all week drawing yourself rubbing your face and moaning?
"By shunning me but good." I cannot make any sense of this sentence.
I can't wait to see how the "Scott rubbing his face" graphic will eventually be reused.
The perfect shave rule: If you rub it more than twice, it's facesturbation.
I like how he gets that last word, even if they're not exactly words.
I foresee facial rubbing and moaning becoming a useful meme in my household.
I do the same thing after a really good shave. Now I realize just how creepy it is. Thanks, Scott!
That last panel is excellent, sir.
Oh yes, I can totally relate. I hardly ever get a truly smooth shave, and it is really one of the greatest little things you can get pleasure from.
Oddly reminiscent of that one painting by the artsy guy.
I tried not to giggle out loud, but panel 4 snuck up on me! Couldn't help myself.
That's just crazy enough to work!
thanks again for an excellent strategy, er.. comic.
I love the comic but in the last frame the line "By shunning me but good!" doesn't make sense to me.
Oh, pure gold! I'm still laughing out loud over today's strip.
And my cubicle mates are shunning me! Even better!
Gee, my good shaves never last all day. Even when I use the technique Scott taught us.
Rob, you mean that your cubicle mates are shunning you, "but good", surely?
I find it a little strange that so many people don't understand "but good"
In the context of the panel, it adds to the "By shunning me" part, turning it from "They shunned me" into "They shunned me greatly" or something like that. It's similar to adding "And how" at the end of a sentence to add emphasis.
Hilarious! Another masterpiece. Also, I think I'm gonna try that rubbing my face and moaning thing.
I can read the line "By shunning me but good" just fine. My mom used the "...but good" phrase quite frequently, as in "I'm gonna tan your hide but good!"
Also, this rubbing and um, moaning, isn't gender specific. However, it's even less appropriate to ask your coworkers if they want to rub your legs. Especially if you know they'd say yes...
The whole thing had me chuckling, but panel 4 made me laugh out loud! Nice way to introduce face-rubbing-Scott, too.
Long time fan, first time poster just saying: Great Comic!
Also wanted to let the folks who don't understand the "By shunning me but good!" line know that it makes perfect sense so long as you don't over think it & understand basic American slang-talk. Adding a "but good!" to something just means that the something was done very well.
It's really just another (less "refined") way of saying that he was shunned by his co-workers, as saying "My co-workers did a really good job shunning me!" or "I was quite impressed with the shunning ability of my co-workers!" would have sounded a lot stuffier & lacked the zing of the "but good!" line.
I think I'll stop now, as I seemed to have rambled on this but good!
"By shunning me but good!" does not read as well as it sounds when spoken with proper tone. The "but good" part would be drawn out ... "but gooooooood". Hmmm, my explanation is not working for me either. I usually here that phrase without the "but".
Basically, the coworkers did an excellent job of shunning him.
they shunned me good
For those confused, "...but good" is an idiom that expresses something to a greater extent. Essentially the same as saying "Boy, did they ever!". See also: "...and how!".
It is a slightly unexpected usage, but trust me, that just makes the sentence even funnier.
i totally got it but good.
Damn it, now I have to shave.
Awesome comic. I recommend all men get a profession hot shave at least once in their life. mmm smooooth.
The "but good" thing must not be an Arizona thing, because I have never heard that in my life. But whatever. Excellent comic.
The first frame alone had me laughing, both for its usual banter between Scott & Missy, and for my ability to relate to the shaving thing. I also liked the way he shut her down in frame 4, though that doesn't mean he's doing himself any favors.
As for the "but good" thing, for a split second, I thought there was a missing comma before "but," but when I read the whole sentence through, it made perfect sense to me. Can't add anything to the definition of the term that hasn't already been said!
I've got to get more people at work to start reading this strip... I make references to it, and nobody gets them! I don't want anyone I work with to think I'm even more nuts than usual when I try the face-rub-moaning thing.
Yer darn tootin!. I bet they shunned ya something fierce! .... get it, huh?
I enjoyed this comic but good!
HSUAHSAUHSAUHSA Laughs from Brazil!
facesturbation. ............ mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I thought the phrase meant "other than the fact that they shunned me, their reaction was good" (I think I mentally put a comma between "me" and "but"). Apparently I'm not as good as Americanese as I thought. Let me try to use what I learned today:
That last panel was awesome! It made me laugh... but good!
"but good" is not a phrase used in the UK, and would be seen as bad English; thus the high number of people not understanding. I was thinking that a comma was missing meaning "I was shunned, but it was good". Thanks to those who explained it.
Imma teach you english but good!
I thought the but good meant it was a good thing they were shunning him, it was another way of him saying he doesn't want to talk to his co-workers....
I must say, I feel the same way about my freshly shorn scrotum. Never tried to get co-workers to feel the smoothness, though.
Oh come on. Why would it be any more creepy/satisfying to rub your smooth face than to rub/stroke/pull/chew your beard or mustache? Or to wipe your nose/upper lip/chin a few extra times to get the snot out of that beard/mustache after sneezing? Or get shunned "but good" if you don't get it all?
I'm sure it was a lovely shave, but you missed a spot, mate.
Have had many similiar experiences trying to avoid talking to the wife.The other thing after being at the pub half the day to run in and grab a beer straight away, throws the smell of the breath straight away
I'll have to try this. My coworkers are annoying. Too funny!

Paul Theroux's New Novel: 'A Dead Hand'
Travel Blog • Jim Benning • 11.18.09 | 1:50 PM ET
Paul Theroux's new novel isn't scheduled to be released in the U.S. until February 2010, but it's already getting mixed reviews in the British press. It's a mystery of sorts set in Calcutta and featuring a down-on-his-luck travel-writer-protagonist named Jerry Delfont.
Intriguingly, writes Doug Johnstone in The Independent:
Midway through the book, Delfont meets a fictional veteran US travel writer called Paul Theroux, a more successful and famous version of Delfont, whom he despises. The next 20 pages amount to a diatribe by Delfont about the act of travel writing, describing it as an emotionally stunted, puerile and selfish pastime, and brutally denouncing anyone who is stupid and arrogant enough to do it. This remarkable interlude is compelling, like rubbernecking a psychological car crash - but the rest of the novel is distinctly patchy, the bad points eventually outweighing the good.
Apparently the sex writing in the book leaves something to be desired. Once again, Theroux has been nominated for the Literary Review's annual Bad Sex in Fiction award.
2 Comments for Paul Theroux's New Novel: 'A Dead Hand'
ron 11.21.09 | 3:39 AM ET
Sounds like an interesting novel.
Paddy O'docharty 12.01.09 | 4:54 AM ET
Theroux is without question a analyzing genius from the point of view of a mid 20th century American North eastern voyeur traveler type. A very rare breed indeed. To even come close to understanding his rail dribble it is absolutely necessary for one to have experienced some form of overnight Train clatter before senility pickles the bones. Pauls insight into third world despotics and Hemmingway bullies forgives his lack of conservative views. Perhaps his extensive exposure to the teaching profession underminded his otherwise open intelect as to the strenth of Americans Free interprise system. His children will surley miss it when its passed. Bad Sex Award? Is it really possible for a voyeur to have bad sex???

The Lancaster Village Board on Monday held its annual reorganizational meeting, making personnel reappointments, re-establishing meeting times and approving everything from the official newspaper to the mileage reimbursement rate.
Political newcomer Russell W. Sugg took his seat on the board at Monday's meeting, replacing Trustee Edward M. Marki, who was defeated in last month's village election.
The upstart Sugg, 49, a real property analyst for the state, ran on the Integrity of Choice Party line with Marki, who formed the party after he lost the endorsement of the Citizens Party in his re-election bid.
"It's unfortunate. I'd like to have Ed here," said Sugg, the only non-Citizens Party member of the five-person board, after Monday night's meeting in the Municipal Building.
Sugg told The Buffalo News he thinks he spent about $750 of his own money on his election campaign. He said that he was grateful for the support he received in the race and that he looks forward to getting to work serving the residents of the village.
Mayor Paul M. Maute and Trustees William C. Schroeder and Dawn M. Robinson won re-election last month.
While most of Monday's agenda was straightforward, Sugg did abstain from voting on several items, saying after the meeting that he received the materials just 15 minutes ahead of time and didn't feel he had had enough of an opportunity to review them.
A few resolutions were tabled by the Village Board, including the appointment of a village prosecutor to a one-year term. The current prosecutor, Yvonne Tripi, will continue in that role until the board decides whether to reappoint her or name a replacement.

Halve your chicken and eat it, too
For years, out of pure squeamishness, I bought chicken breast meat and dumped it from the package into the pan to cook. I had no desire to touch it, cut it, pound it or even trim it if that meant touching the meat with my bare hands.
Well, as you might imagine, this treatment of chicken breast meat created a few problems. It frequently came out overdone, or raw in the middle. Or raw in the middle first and overdone five minutes later.
I'm almost past this aversion. I've figured out that if you're going to cook, you're eventually going to have to touch raw chicken.
So I finally learned to pound it, trim it, cube it and slice it, all while running the hot water tank dry trying to keep my hands clean.
I'm still not a huge fan of boneless skinless chicken breast, especially the way it's sold, sometimes 3 inches thick on one side, and 6 to 8 ounces total -- utterly impossible to cook as is.
Well, last week I finally got smart. I sliced a chicken breast horizontally into a "cutlet" and my chicken troubles are over. It cooks more evenly and more quickly.

September 23rd, 2010
It's been one of those weeks… too much wind blowing through here, too many disruptions, interventions, and complications, and so I am exploiting this blog space to send a few notes.
To Tom Hollett, the owner of Jiffy Cabs who wrote a thoughtful letter to the MUSE editor this week– nicely put. Your graceful apology to the offended MUN community is well received, at least by me. I only hope you understood my sarcasm when I said in my earlier blog that it was socially acceptable to circulate misogynist ads. Of course, I meant it was a scandal that it would be acceptable to anyone in society. Wish you hadn't highlighted me as for the ad, which completely misses the point. Anyhow, I now believe we are on the same page about all this—right? I hope your own employees and the editors at the MUSE learn from your example. I am rethinking whether I'll ever step foot in a Jiffy again. Give me some time to think about it.
To Eye-Gore, or do you call yourself EE-Gore, thanks a lot for wreaking havoc on our island. If you were (only) a category 1 or 2, what the hell does a 5 feel like? Never mind. Please don't show me. You blew a crater in the Trans Canada Highway and prevented dozens of trucks from depositing their precious cargo in our fair city. Some of that load included my scheduled film for the MUN Cinema Series, Ajami. Last I heard, the canisters of film stock were still aboard the van, somewhere west of Gander. There go the best laid plans for about 300 people on a Thursday night. We're all sick about the trees. Hope you're satisfied.
To Purolator, whom I had to call about the aforementioned film, why oh why couldn't you have given me accurate information when I dialed to locate the missing cans of reels? Is it because you don't have an office in this province? That I had to speak to someone who was answering from a cubicle in Moncton or Bangalore? Someone without a clue that the TCH had been closed, that Igor had swept through here, that trucks were stacked up higher than Grand Falls? That I had to schlep to the local Purolator office where I was pitied like an orphan for my hopefulness, and then told the harsh truth: no trucks, no film—ergo, no popcorn?
To NL Power, I feel for you. Igor was predicted, but no one could have prevented the 30-50,000 or so homes from going black and cold in the aftermath. I hope you're not getting too much abuse. There is only so much a bunch of well-trained, yellow jump-suited guys in hard hats can do in a single day. Driving through major intersections without traffic lights in the last few days has been both surreal and terrifying. Anarchy is lurking just under the asphalt. You can feel it at every corner. I felt like sending a thank you card when the red-amber-greens came back on Kenmount Road this afternoon, one of our busiest thoroughfares. It's like Lord of the Flies out there.
To Jack Layton, leader of the NDP, I love the way you nailed the divisive politics of the federal government around the gun registry debate this week. Someone had to say it and I am glad you did, sounding ever so much like a guy with a PhD in social science, which wears well in moments like this. The government's pitting of rural against urban Canadians is shockingly demoralizing, a cheap and offensive way to rouse the masses into fiery indignation. The whole so-called debate has been insulting to anyone with half a brain. It's not about whether one is for or against a registry (I'm for it, but never mind); it's the shallow way government has been whipping people into red-neck frenzy, Glenn Beck style. Sometimes I am embarrassed by our political leaders. Not you, not this week, Jack.
To Danny Williams, who will allegedly be helicoptering it in a day or so with the aforementioned federal Canadian political leader. As you survey the hurricane damage, our fearless premier, please try to chill PM Harper on the CBC coverage of the gun registry. His attack dogs are claiming the public broadcaster was 'biased' and misled Canadians. Donnez moi un break, boys (and girl, notably Jenni Byrne, Tory director of political operations for the Party). Don't be sore losers. Democracy is messy but it's the best thing we've got. They need to channel their rage about losing the vote over the gun registry to helping out Newfoundlanders who have been stranded and left homeless. Mr. Williams, see what you can do.

a slow game with characters that have big heads. the characters are ugly, and are all girls. sometimes boys try to play it, but they just end up looking like girly men because all of the characters have skirts on. the object of the game is to tear up your competition (5-6 "girls") by "scratching", "teasing", "grabbing", "licking your lolly", "cowering", and "tattling". there are many strategies to win this game, but all are meaningless and the game is easy to play.

On My Mind
A series of thoughts from the mind of a tired and overworked (yet reasonably paid) graphic designer:
- The whole thing with Michael J. Fox's ad is intriguing me right now. Was the ad manipulative? Certainly. But that doesn't mean that he doesn't have a passionate and honest belief in his cause. Debate the issue--the focus on Fox just seems misplaced.
- I just watched the movie September Tapes--an uninformed impulse rental that was so far from being good that I have to question my own sanity. The movie is so arrogant, the characters so unlikable, the mix of real footage with Blair Witch-inspired hideous script and plot go far in explaining why I had never heard of the film. What remains confusing is how anyone ever thought that this derivative, self-satisfied piece of crap was worth making.
The central concept is that a man is driven to make a documentary a year after 9/11. He, a cameraman, and an interpreter go on an unsanctioned trip to Afghanistan to find Osama and the rest of his terrorist crew. The reality is that these guys did go to Afghanistan to film, they probably saw a lot of interesting things, and captured some compelling footage. If they'd left it at the reality, it might have made a good flick.
What they did was dress up the thing with poorly written dialog, some credibility-shaking re-shoots, and ended with a blatantly manipulative bit of audio that left me not so much disappointed as honestly pissed.
Just don't do it.
- I hate politics.
- That's obviously not true, but I am getting awfully tired of the political ads, the inflating of small issues into giant arguments, and the creepy faces of the candidates--overly scripted, rarely honest, always opportunistic--continually crawling along on my TV screen. Just make it stop.
- If you happen to be at a certain local industry show at the Denver Convention Center on November 8 or 9, look me up. I'll be there babysitting a couple laptops.
- Barbershop is my chosen antidote for the sin of renting September Tapes. In case you were wondering.
- Mark Lanegan continues to expand his musical vision. He guests on Baldwin Brothers--a kind of electronic, jazzy, eclectic funk group that plays something far more dance-oriented than Lanegan's usual rock music. He sounds good on the track, "The Party's Over" (available on iTunes). His voice sounds well-rested and strong. Good stuff.
- For another iTunes hit of Lanegan, check out the new Twilight Singers, A Stitch in Time. It features two covers--Massive Attacks "Come Live With Me" and the Fat Freddy's Drop tune "Flashback"--with Lanegan on lead. It's a great little five songs with catchy rock and the Twilight Singers' usual attitude and bravado. The last song, "The Lure Would Prove Too Much", is one of those strange little gems that you'll find it playing in your head over and over again as you fall asleep at night. If the mythical Gutter Twins album (a Lanegan-Dulli collaboration) sounds this good, then it is going to be mighty good. Screaming Trees good, if you take my meaning.

North Kerry, flat, rich farming land that runs as far as the Shannon estuary, feels quite different from the rest of the county – and they've even been known to play hurling rather than Gaelic football up here. Instead of the remote, spectacularly set coastal villages of the peninsulas, you'll find – or avoid – the traditional, kiss-me-quick resorts of Ballyheigue and Ballybunion, while the county town of Tralee seems quite anodyne if you've just come up from Dingle, for example. It is worth making time, however, for Listowel, a characterful small town that's a hotbed of literary activity.

LISTOWEL is a congenial market town in a leafy setting on the north bank of the River Feale. It's best known for its literary associations, boasting an annual five-day festival of literary workshops and events, called, with due poetic licence, Writers' Week and taking place over the bank-holiday weekend at the beginning of June (wwww.writersweek.ie). Listowel's most celebrated literary figure is probably the late John B. Keane, author of plays such as The Field, a dramatization of a shocking murder that took place in this region in the 1950s.

By Sgt. 1st Class Manuel Torres, U.S. Army North PAOJuly 30, 2010
BUTLERVILLE, Ind. - In the chaotic mix of realistic training, a team of individuals donning orange vests can be seen flitting throughout the area as they jot down notes and observations; their mission is to prepare detailed observations on the steps taken while units perform life-saving measures during a mass casualty and decontamination training exercise.
After the mission is complete, it is then up to the observer controllers to compile those notes and to provide the valued feedback to the units and commands conducting operations during the Vibrant Response 10.2 field training exercise July 11-21, at the Muscatatuck Urban Training Center, which is located near Butlerville, Ind.
Such is the mission for the OCs from U.S. Army North's Joint Task Force - 51, which is headquartered in San Antonio and serves as the command and control element for the national emergency response FTX.
"Observing units allows us to ensure they are meeting the standards," said James Barkley, observer controller, ARNORTH. "They use the skills they have been taught to complete the mission, and we are here to validate that the training is to standard."
While watching the South Carolina Army National Guard's 413th Chemical Company perform decontamination of a large group of casualties, observer controllers see the process from beginning to end. They observe how units set up the site and deploy its Soldiers to perform their mission - it is all part of the validation process.
"In a mass casualty mission like this, you have to maintain the safety of the people who need help as well as the safety of the units performing the mission," said Barkley. "We ensure the times where units must conduct their rotation with other team members to avoid dehydration and heat casualties."
Temperatures in MUTC have been in the upper 90s throughout the week of training. With showers and thunderstorms throughout the afternoons, it makes the area more humid and potentially dangerous for Soldiers performing in their Mission Oriented Protective Posture gear, which can result in heat casualties in a matter of minutes. While being encased in air-tight suits from head to toe, as well as wearing their protective gas masks, the Soldiers stand in the sun - protecting themselves from the notional nuclear contamination area - for up to an hour at a time.
"This is real training; this is as real as possible; every hour, Soldiers must rotate, get water, perform life-saving measures on civilians who were effected in the blast," said Barkley.
Included in the scenarios and evaluation processes is that units must know how to properly evaluate casualties, how to control the flow of the wounded casualties they are providing aid to, and how to provide oversight and control of the decontamination and records process.
"The 413th chemical company is doing really well today," said Joseph Ussery, observer controller, U.S. Army North, a contractor for the Advanced Technology Education Program. "We ensure they have the live role-playing casualties, the mannequins, the time and place of the training, and we give them the realism that they experience during the training."
During the exercise, Soldiers must assess and process the injuries of mannequins, which are labeled with specific injuries, in addition to the live role players, who suffer from the symptoms of dehydration, starvation, burns, radioactive contamination and hysteria. The Soldiers are evaluated on their ability to process the live role players, and the mannequins, through the decontamination sites.
After processing through decon, all notional casualties must then be cleaned, washed and processed through the medical aid stations, where they will be provided medical attention and treated for their injuries.
The added realism of training aids and live role-playing casualties provide Soldiers with an added measure of realism.
"I'm learning a lot here; this is very different than our mission overseas," said Sgt. Westly Linder, infantryman, 4th Battalion, 118th Infantry Regiment, South Carolina Army National Guard. "The controllers are here, and they help us communicate to use our skills to help the civilians get to where they need to go for help. Every drill, we practice our mission; this helps me and my team to accomplish our mission."

The Psychiatric Examination's emphasis is the understanding and proper performance of the mental status examination. Five of the nine chapters are devoted to this portion of the psychiatric interview. Some confusion results because the author uses the term psychiatric examination interchangeably with mental status examination. There is no attempt to discuss the anamnesis in this book.
At several points in the book, but primarily in the introductory chapter, we are faced both with studies quoted by the author which are of questionable merit, as well as statements which seem to represent the author's personal psychology. These examples will illustrate (a) In describing the reliability of the psychiatric examination, the author quotes a study comparing the examinations of a group of senior psychiatrists with a group of resident psychiatrists. The author only partially apologizes when he says "Reliability might have been higher if experienced

Suicide Squad Comes to Lego Batman 3, Without the 'Suicide'
Quick, what's the name of the DC Comics super-team made of villains who go on potentially fatal missions? Yup, it's the Suicide Squad. Only that's not what they're going to be called in the Lego Batman 3 add-on coming early next year. There, they're going by The Squad.

With several airlines planning to increase the number of frequent-flier miles needed for a ticket in 2014, time is getting short to get the most value for your miles.
While different airlines have different programs with different rules, the bottom line in most cases is that free tickets will require more miles, points, or whatever your airline calls their version of what most people call frequent-flier miles. The miles you may have now may soon be worth less than they are today.
Delta Skymiles
Delta has announced two rounds of Skymiles increases for 2014. Each round will raise the number of Skymiles needed for travel in different categories, to different locations.
The good news is that the basic, least costly (though hard to find) award ticket will not change. That's the "saver" economy award ticket for travel within the continental U.S., Alaska and Canada - still 25,000 Skymiles round-trip.
The bad news: Business and first-class awards will be more costly on many routes, as well as economy tickets to Hawaii, the Middle East, and the South Asian subcontinent.
For example, the least expensive ticket to the Aloha State currently requires 40,000 Skymiles. For travel after Feb. 1, you would need 45,000.
When the second round of increases kicks in, June 1, a business-class ticket to Europe will jump from 100,000 Skymiles to 125,000.
If you're planning to fly Delta using Skymiles in 2014, check out the award travel charts on Delta.com to see if these changes make a difference to you that could alter your travel plans.
United MileagePlus
Like Delta, United is hiking the number of miles needed for business and first-class seats on many overseas routes, as well as economy seats to Hawaii. The changes apply to awards redeemed starting Feb. 1.
Also like Delta, United is raising the number of miles needed for an economy seat on a flight to Hawaii from 40,000 to 45,000 miles, round-trip. The least expensive business- class ticket to Europe will jump from 100,000 miles to 115,000. Of course, those "saver" awards have limited seat availability.
Notably, United's mileage rates for travel on its Star Alliance partner carriers, such as Air Canada and Singapore Airlines, are skyrocketing for many tickets from the continental U.S. to many overseas destinations. A ticket to New Zealand that now requires 160,000 miles will require 260,000 starting Feb. 1, for example.
Southwest Rapid Rewards
Southwest's program works differently than programs such as Delta's. Instead of needing different numbers of miles for different flights or routes, and then hoping seats are available, Southwest rewards are used like money to buy any available seat in one of three price categories.
Currently, the exchange rate amounts to 60 reward points per dollar in the lowest-cost "wanna get away" category. But tickets booked in that category starting March 31 will cost 70 points per dollar.
So, for example, a $500 round-trip ticket would require 30,000 points if booked before March 31, or 35,000 after that. That's a big jump, and it's being applied to the least expensive reward tickets.
Southwest posts its fare calendar roughly six months in advance, so by March you should be able to book travel through September.
Southwest customers who have a Southwest credit card can still trade in Rapid Rewards points for gift cards at a rate of $100 per 10,000 points. The "wanna get away" flights are still a better value than gift cards, even with the rate increase, because 10,000 points will equal $143 in airfare after March 31.
US Airways and American Airlines, which are merging, have not announced mile/point increases, and so far they continue to operate separate loyalty programs.

New York City police say white powder contained in several envelopes mailed to various bank branches in the Big Apple turned out to be non-toxic.
Officials said seven envelopes were sent Monday to several Wells Fargo branches, a JP Morgan Chase branch, and an office building.
The suspicious envelopes caused evacuations of several bank branches, but no injuries were reported. Police had no suspects.
The incident came on the eve of May Day protests organized by Occupy Wall Street organizers and and labor groups across the country.
Dan Gainor, vice president of Business & Culture for the Media Research Center, talked about the Occupy protestors and their goals, on CBN News Channel Morning News, May 1. Watch the interview here.
Four of the mailed envelopes contained an identical note, which included the language "Happy May Day."
But Occupy Wall Street spokesman Bill Dobbs insists the movement had nothing to do with white powder prank. He said the incidents distract from the May 1 events.
Since it was launched eight months ago, Occupy has targeted U.S. financial policies it blames for the growing income gap between rich and poor - between what they called the 1 percent and the 99 percent.
On Thursday, International Workers Day, organizers are holding marches across the globe in an effort to breath new life into their movement after a dormant winter.
Websites in Europe, Asia, the United Kingdom, and the United States are calling for a general strike, meaning no work, no school, no banking, and no shopping.
In New York, Occupy's stated aims are to block tunnels and bridges in an attempt to "shut down the city."

In October 2008 the SWISS TEXT CORPUS project will be completed and be made available online (www.schweizer-textkorpus.ch) as part of a corpus of the German language. It contains German texts from a wide range of different text types of 20th century Switzerland. The German seminar of the University of Basel takes stock at the end of this project and is pleased to announce a conference with the title Diversity in language corpora. The aim of the conference is to investigate the different dynamic fields of work that deal with language corpora.
The word "diversity" in the title of the conference refers not only to the diversity of the corpus from a historical or contextual point of view or the diversity of the various kinds of texts and the conditions of their production and reception, but it also refers to the theoretical, technical and practical insights which were gained in the course of the project. "Diversity" also adresses the various academic disciplines with which the language corpus came into contact as well as the various possibilities of use that the corpus offers.
On the one hand, the conference aims to present to the public the SWISS TEXT CORPUS and its partner projects in Germany (Berlin), Austria (Vienna) and Italy (Bolzano). On the other hand it aims to locate the completed corpus within a bigger framework and wants to provide a forum for a dialogue with current debates in related disciplines such as corpus linguistics, computational linguistics, lexicography, digitization and computer science.
The conference will be held at the "Bildungszentrum der mission21" (Missionsstrasse 21, CH-4055 Basel), from 22 to 24 April.
More information can be found on the following website: www.schweizer-textkorpus.ch/tagung
Conference languages are German, French, Italian and English.

CBNNews.com - CAIRO - The latest round of Egyptian-sponsored coalition negotiations between rival Palestinian factions, Fatah and Hamas, are nearing collapse less than four days into the scheduled 10 days of meetings.
Egyptian mediators and members of Fatah, the party of Palestinian Authority PA President Mahmoud Abbas, are trying to convince Hamas that it is in the PA's best interest to establish a coalition made up of nonaffiliated people.
"Fatah believes it is in the interest of the Palestinians to have a government of technocrats who do not belong to any political faction," senior Fatah official Ibrahim Abu al-Naja said.
Al-Najah said the United States and European Union, both members of the Quartet, which also includes the United Nations and Russia, have said they will not work with a PA unity government that does not accept the three basic tenets put forth by the Quartet: namely to acknowledge Israel's right to exist, renounce terrorism and accept previously signed agreements between Israel and the PA.
Hamas, which openly refutes Israel's right to exist and considers acts of terror legitimate "resistance," insists that its representatives serve as ministers in a unity coalition.
In addition to the makeup of the government, other stumbling blocks include the timing of presidential and legislative elections and blending PA and Hamas security forces.
Abbas, whose tenure as president ended on January 9, wants to extend his term by a year and hold presidential and legislative elections together in January 2010.
Hamas wants separate elections for the presidency and legislature.
Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum said if these issues aren't resolved in the next few days, the latest round of talks would fail to produce an agreement.
Barhoum was furious with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's recent statement that a PA unity government must accept the Quartet's three benchmarks.
"Who said we are going to form a government just to appease the Americans?" Barhoum asked. "The main reason for the schism in the Palestinian arena is U.S. meddling in our internal affairs," he said.
Hamas government spokesman Taher a-Nunu said the PLO's (Palestinian Liberation Organization) endorsement of a two-state solution was at the core of the failed talks.
"Fatah wants a government that accepts the two-state solution, and this is something that Hamas cannot and will never accept," a-Nunu said.
"We are prepared to accept a Palestinian state in the 1967 boundaries only as a temporary solution, without recognizing the Zionist occupation of any inch of our homeland," he said.

WASHINGTON (AP) - New efforts to protect the wreck of the USS Monitor are getting under way off the North Carolina coast.
A joint National Ocean Service and Navy expedition has begun and is expected to continue for four weeks, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said on Friday.
The Civil War ironclad Monitor became famous for its battle with the Confederate ironclad CSS Virginia, sometimes referred to as the Merrimack, the name it carried before becoming part of the Confederate Navy. The Monitor later sank in a storm.
The vessel lies upside down in 240 feet of water.

Pasadena has bounced back from hard times and is headed for an even brighter tomorrow, Mayor Bill Bogaard said Thursday in his annual State of the City address.
Bogaard's optimistic tone before a crowd of some 450 people at Caltech's Beckman Auditorium stood in sharp contrast to the fairly grim outlook he conveyed a year ago.
At that time, City Hall was bracing for deep cuts to balance long-standing budget deficits and mourning the loss of state redevelopment funds, all while the recession continued to tax a stagnant local economy.
But Pasadena has emerged with a balanced city budget and is riding a surge of private-sector investment from new businesses bringing "hundreds of high-paying jobs with a capacity for more growth," Bogaard said.
As much as $560 million in local infrastructure improvements are also on the table for the next five years, according to the mayor.
Bogaard did not directly address cost overruns in ongoing renovation work at the Rose Bowl, but said a new funding plan adopted earlier this month protects the city's General Fund, which pays for most public services.
"At a time when many cities in California and the nation continue to struggle, Pasadena stands firm as a national role model of excellence," said Bogaard, who is also president of the League of California Cities.
In keeping with high spirits, the evening began with Jet Propulsion Laboratory Deputy Director Eugene Tattini recapping the Curiosity rover's successful landing on Mars in August.
A full-scale model of Curiosity was displayed outside the auditorium.
Science and engineering feats are also helping to drive economic development in Pasadena, Bogaard said.
The mayor praised the work of the newly created Pasadena Innovation Council, a group of technology entrepreneurs working to establish stronger ties between startups in the city and market Pasadena as a destination for tech companies.
"People feel the economy has stabilized, and that has allowed us to be more introspective about what the future holds. We got through [the recession], and we now need to write the next chapter," said council co-founder Andy Williams, who has started or invested in multiple local technology firms.
Assemblyman Chris Holden (D-Pasadena), who left the City Council for Sacramento in November, compared the optimism of Bogaard's speech to Gov. Jerry Brown's State of the State address earlier in the day.
"Both recognize the worrying times cities and the state have been dealing with might be behind us, and there's an opportunity to start thinking positively again about the future," Holden said.
Bogaard did, however, conclude on a more somber note by recognizing recent episodes of gun-related violence in Pasadena and throughout the country.
He said the city would work to expand job training, public health and recreation programs intended to curb violence.
"Our youth and lower-income neighborhoods must share in the benefits of a successful economy," Bogaard said.

Can a 0.5 percent tax on Wall Street and the wealthy narrow the deep poverty divide in NYC and other parts of America?
As Occupy Wall Street gather Tuesday on their second anniversary, rallies were held at Zuccotti Park in New York City where it all started. A later rally is also scheduled for 5 p.m. at the United Nations.
One of their chief battle cries is poverty and the growing income disparity in NYC and nowhere is deep inequality more highlighted than in areas affected by Superstorm Sandy.
On Oct. 29, 2012, Sandy raged through the northeast, leaving parts of the Far Rockaways in Queens, deeply devastated.
It is almost a year later and the residents of this community say they were treated like an afterthought following the storm and are still dealing with the financial toll caused by the destruction.
But many will tell you that the ferocious storm did not cause all of their pain, just exacerbated it. The stunning inequality which exists had already crippled many communities in that peninsula and other parts of the city, including Brooklyn, Staten Island and the Bronx.
Hospitals continue to close; resources are limited, joblessness, poor performing schools collide with all the other neglect that are usually present when neighborhoods are treated as unimportant and resources funneled elsewhere.
Residents in the Rockaways will tell you how they were left without electrical power for more than a month, some longer, while Wall Street went without power for only one day. They will tell you how many are still homeless since the storm destroyed their homes. How the only hospital in the area was closed.
This kind of abandonment, which leads to crushing poverty, doesn't have to be and one group is fighting hard to remedy this.
To bridge the inequality chasm, they propose a 0.5 percent "Robin Hood" tax on Wall Street trades, which they say will net $350 billion annually. The benefit of such a small tax will be hugely significant. [Click on video above for more].
For the revenue garnered from a mere half a percent tax can rebuild communities, re-open hospitals, improve schools, and provide jobs and health care. And not just in Far Rockaway but all across America, for growing inequality is a national problem.
We have to think long term and a truly successful, rich productive country takes care of all of its citizenry, not just a few. A healthy population is a productive population and a productive population leads to increased revenue.
It's not rocket science but simple logic. Wasn't it Winston Churchill who said the most important asset of any nation is its healthy citizens?
So while we currently debate whether to flex our military might over Syria to show the world how dominate we are, a large portion of the American population lives in poverty; children go hungry because their parents are jobless or paid wages that are impossibly low and cannot sustain them.
Many of our public schools simply warehouse our children and turn them loose with a substandard education. This in turn can lead to neighborhoods infested with crime, robberies and murders, as gun violence dominate entire communities across America.
Before we invade Syria our leaders should a take a look in our backyard and count the number of deaths from gun violence. Sarin gas is lethal and a horrific way to die and so are our children and youths dying in inner cities across this nation. How can we propose to fix another country when we ignore the plight of ours?
Contrary to what some may loudly spew on television and talk radio, we are all interconnected and to neglect large sections of the population, while a few horde most of the money and resources, will have catastrophic results—that is if we do not deal with the gaping problem.
It is not "those lazy, lawless people's" problem, for society is growing more interconnected. The way we travel is a testament to that as urban cities' modes of transport throw us all together.
How your neighbor lives will impact your life sooner or later and for those who believe that living in the "rich zip codes" far removed from the madding crowd, insulates them from the ills of those communities; think again. See how long you remain "insulated" if a pandemic breaks out from lack of health care or hospitals for those who may be sick.
The plight of your maid, nanny or gardener who may have no health coverage and take the subway to and from pruning your hedges, cleaning your house and looking after your children, will certainly matter then, wouldn't it?

A SEVEN-year-old boy sparked a security scare after discovering a Second World War bomb with a metal detector he was given for Christmas.
Sonny Cater was exploring fields near his house when the £30 National Geographic metal detector led him to a mud-caked metal capsule.
Sonny unearthed the object and took it home. His father, Jem, became suspicious after rinsing off the mud under the kitchen tap. He contacted his father-in-law, a former RAF armourer, who advised Mr Cater to call the police.
A bomb disposal squad, from RAF Wittering in Cambridgeshire, was dispatched to the family home in Kings Lynn, Norfolk, where experts identified the device as a 10lb British practice bomb and removed it.
Yesterday Sonny's mother, Tracey Cater, said: "We are dumbfounded that he discovered this on his first go. We are going to go out again to see if he can find something Roman. It has made our Christmas.
"It was caked in mud and Jem just thought it was a lump of metal and took it home.
"Sonny did become a little nervous with the arrival of the emergency services."
Sonny was enjoying a walk with his parents and brother Marley, nine, on Boxing Day when his metal detector started bleeping.
He dug up the treasure but could not make out what it was so hurriedly bundled up the muddy object and took it home to wash down.
Mrs Cater explained why Sonny had the metal detector. "Kids always love looking for treasure so we thought it would be a fun random present for his stocking.
"When it started buzzing, we all thought it would be some two-pence pieces or something like that. I never thought it would be anything this serious.
"It was all very exciting, the kids and Jem started digging and then our crazy dog started digging, too.
"It was a big muddy lump when it came to the surface so we stupidly thought, 'Let's take it home'.
"We feel a bit silly now we know it could have potentially been dangerous but it's not often we go exploring and end up with a bomb in a bucket of water at the end of the garden. I should imagine there were a few curtains twitching."
Practice bombs were used in the first and second world wars to allow military to rehearse without causing the same excess of damage as they would with regular bombs. They were also cheaper to make.
RAF Wittering spokesman Flight Lieutenant Donald Earl advised people to call police and not move suspicious items.
He said: "We find a lot of bombs in Afghanistan with metal detectors but we don't tend to find them in the UK. We would urge members of the public to leave suspicious items in situ."

HUNTSVILLE, Alabama -- A DNA expert testified this afternoon that blood found in three places at the scene of a 2008 Huntsville double-murder is a match with defendant Wilbert James Smith's DNA.
Crystal Kissell, who headed the DNA lab for the Alabama Department of Forensic Sciences in Huntsville, testified this afternoon in meticulous detail about the DNA testing process and analysis.
Kissell testified that testing showed blood from the scene that matched the victims' DNA, Bertjenski "B.J." Peterson and Ronnie Pugh Jr., who were shot in their home at 2802 Hester Lane on Aug. 23, 2008.
Some samples were inconclusive, Kissell said, but blood samples from three different areas matched Smith's, whose name was in Alabama's DNA database.
Smith, 32, of Montgomery, was arrested in January 2009 and charged with capital murder in the killings of two people and also on the basis that he had been convicted of another murder in the past 20 years. He pleaded guilty in 2000 to a murder charge in Montgomery and received a 20-year sentence that required him to serve five years in prison.
The prosecution also featured testimony from Huntsville Police Department investigator Dave Mullins, who helped process the crime scene. The house was ransacked, with couches turned over, cushions cut and drawers flung open.
Mullins testified about locating blood samples in different rooms -- which ultimately proved a match with Smith's blood - but said they were unable to successfully lift any fingerprints at the scene.
Madison County Assistant District Attorney Randy Dill, who is prosecuting the case with Assistant DA Jonathan Hubbert, told the jury Monday that the victims were involved in the drug trade.
Smith's attorney Bruce Gardner has stressed to jurors that the only link to Smith is the blood found at the scene and that shell casings indicate more than one gun was used in the fatal shootings. The victims were bound with duct-tape before they were shot, according to Dill.
Gardner also pointed to testimony this morning from Trinyell Coats, a friend of the victims. Gardner said Coates' account that the men were selling marijuana -- 20-pounds at a time -- matched testimony from Monday that said there was occasionally large amounts of money in the house.
The case resumes at 9 a.m. Wednesday before Circuit Judge Karen Hall.
