Atlanco/Tru-Spec Sizing Information
Please Wait - Updating Your Shopping Cart
TRU-SPEC is the wardrobe standard for the female public safety professional. Engineered dimensional fit with a lower rise is tailored made to give a woman a more precise fit. Unique 14-pocket design and configuration allows for a completely casual appearance while providing secure storage for duty gear. Two cargo pockets come with hook-and-loop closure and bellowed side gussets. Slider waistband eliminates the need for gathered elastic or adjustable side tabs; accommodates either paddle style or inside-the-trousers holster. From the ripstop fabric to the tactical construction, TRU-SPEC is the soldier's solution for 24/7 wear, on duty or off duty.
TRU-SPEC Women's 24/7 Polyester-Cotton Ripstop Pants features:
These pants are perfect for work. Multiple pockets that are actually useful and not just decoration. The sizing runs VERY small, be forewarned. I wear a size 16 and had to order the biggest size they have (24). That's the gap you're looking at.
These are GREAT pants. Great fit. I'm small, but the waists are always too big on pants that fit my hips. These are a perfect fit! I ordered one pair, loved them, and ordered more. Just figured I'd found the best and no reason to look elsewhere. Have people asking where I got them so they can get some. They WILL shrink a little in length if you use a dryer.
I'm 5'8", 155lbs, bigger legs and hips, smaller waist and these pants fit great. I where them 10 hours a day while walking, running, climbing stairs, and kneeling. Finally a pair a pants that fit!
Very frustrating!!! ordered size I normal wear, tried pants on couldnt get them up. size runs small and not made for curvy women with a rear-end. plus side, love the look and pockets
Need better sizing chart for 24/7 tru spec
I'm a dog trainer at a shelter, and needed a durable pant with tons of pocket room. I tried on women's tacticals by Duluth Trading, 5.11, Propper, and Dickies, and these were the only ones that didn't make me look like I was in diapers--most of them are too relaxed in their fit for my tall, lanky body (5'9" 120lb). The Tru Spec 24 7s fit me well around the waist and aren't too baggy. Make sure you buy a belt - with a few pockets filled, they tend to slide down plumber-style. The reinforced knees have stood the test of time (I kneel on concrete daily) where all my other pants have holes. The material is easy to wipe off if I get mud/slobber/other grossiness on me. You may want to order down: I am usually a 4 or 6 in pants, but I take a 2 in these.

Tomlin, not knowing what a reporter might've seen from his seat in the press box, said: "We are going to comb through this with a fine tooth comb, as we should. And those people who are lacking effort won't be playing."
Well, I went through the tape Monday with said "fine tooth comb" and came away doubting Tomlin will announce any changes at his press conference today.
Any minor changes? Well, I might consider activating the true nose tackle, Loni Fangupo, and maybe taking a look at Steve McLendon as an end. I might consider giving Cortez Allen back his starting cornerback job and making William Gay the nickel. And I might consider easing Shamarko Thomas into the free safety spot in relief of Ryan Clark. But, really, I would have to be certain that Thomas has a grasp of the position, which has been a position for older veterans since the days of Brent Alexander.
I realize most fans -- and even the fans in the media -- are demanding changes for what they feel was an unforgivable breakdown in New England, but what I saw on tape was a team getting whipped by a superior quarterback who's made a habit of kicking the Steelers when they're down, and even when they're not, re: a 2007 team that was a year away from a title and a 2010 team that was months away from an AFC title.
Brady looked healthy, his receivers were finally maturing and understanding their QB, and dominating TE Rob Gronkowski was in the game. Also, the Patriots' running game that had been carrying Brady with Gronkowski out, and with those receivers learning, showed against the Steelers why it had been the offense's main asset to that point in the season.
And throw in the fact that Brady absolutely despises the Steelers and Pittsburgh and it added up to a quarter-and-a-half of annihilation as the Patriots gassed the Steelers and kept the pedal to the metal.
Pittsburgh fans demand better, and they're demanding retribution for being embarrassed like that, but I doubt it will happen. The tape shows willingness, hustle, even enthusiasm on the part of the Steelers. Of course, that won't be believed by Steelers fans (and their fans in the media) who won't bother to review the tape. If they do, they'll realize it had more to do with a lack of talent than anything else.
Earlier in the day I watched the Chiefs and Bills and marveled at the talent and high draft picks (and health) making up both of their lines. But the high-pedigreed talent at the skill positions -- other than quarterback -- on both teams made me realize just how difficult it is to build a winning team. Both of those teams are jam-packed with talent that will take the Steelers some years of drafting to match.
But it can happen, and did happen back in 2000 when Kevin Colbert was hired to replace Tom Donahoe as the head of the personnel department.
Let's see, the Steelers went to the Super Bowl in 1995, hosted an AFC title game in 1997, and then sputtered for two years with 7-9 and 6-10 records. The bottom fell out in the second half of the 1999 season when a 5-3 first-half team finished 1-7. Donahoe was fired and Colbert stepped in.
The timeline is quite similar to the 2008 championship Steelers who then hosted the 2010 AFC title game and sputtered last season (8-8) and this season (2-6).
But instead of firing the very capable -- and easy-to-work-with -- Colbert, it's time for him to party like it's 2000 all over again.
Instead of filling holes, he must draft superstars, regardless of position. And that will be possible, since the Steelers are headed for their first top-10 pick since Colbert drafted Plaxico Burress No. 8 in 2000.
It's the longest stretch without a top-10 pick of any team in the NFL by at least three drafts.
The Ravens -- who drafted fifth in 2000 -- have the second longest top-10-free drafts since picking 10th in 2003. The Giants and Chargers, of course, drafted top-4 quarterbacks in 2004.
From that dreadful 1999 team, the Steelers that went on to form the nucleus of their next Super Bowl team were Alan Faneca, Jerome Bettis, Hines Ward and reserves Aaron Smith, Joey Porter and Deshea Townsend. Let's match them with David DeCastro, Le'Veon Bell, Antonio Brown, Cameron Heyward, Jarvis Jones and Cortez Allen/Shamarko Thomas.
The key will be to draft superstars going forward, and I have every reason to believe Colbert is up for the challenge of repeating his own history of identifying talent.
Having some extra draft-pick firepower would certainly help the Steelers get back to the Super Bowl in the six years it took those 1999 wretches, so that naturally brings up the question of whether to trade Ben Roethlisberger after the season.
The following questions would have to be answered in the affirmative before it could even be considered:
* Would there be a partner willing to trade a couple of first-round picks?
* Would the cap be sufficiently relieved?
* Is there a capable replacement?
The answer to the first question is an obvious yes. Roethlisberger will turn 32 next March, is throwing the ball as well as ever, and a team trading for him wouldn't be responsible for the cap hit of previous bonus money it took to sign him to his contract.
And that's another attractive point: He has two years, not one year, remaining on his contract and would certainly be amenable to a contract extension with his new team.
The answer to the second question isn't quite so affirmative. According to our cap expert at SteelCityInsider.net, Ian Whetstone, the Steelers would only realize $5.31 million in cap savings by trading Roethlisberger. If they were to trade him after June 1 -- which probably wouldn't be feasible to his new team -- the Steelers would realize $12.1 million in cap savings, but would still be on the books for $6.8 million in 2015.
If a new direction, a pair of additional first-round picks, and $5.3 million is enough for the Steelers to continue this exploration, they need to answer the third question with confidence:
Is there a capable replacement -- an Andrew Luck-for-Peyton Manning caliber of replacement -- available to them?
Well, I don't know if Marcus Mariota is Luck, but Roethlisberger's not Manning, either, so perhaps the answer could be yes; if the Steelers know they can get high enough to draft Mariota.
While Teddy Bridgewater of Louisville reminds me of a bigger Russell Wilson -- a guy I liked coming out -- Bridgewater, like Wilson, throws a high number of looping passes off a three-quarters flick. Yes, that's a Wilson trademark, but I liked Wilson as a fourth-rounder, not a top 5 guy. I just have some questions about Bridgewater's arm in that regard, and really don't know anything about his intelligence and ability to read defenses.
I have no such reservation about Mariota, who seems to have Luck's arm and intelligence, but is more comparable to Colin Kaepernick, physically, with his exceptional mobility and read-option experience.
Could you imagine the Steelers going pistol and read-option?
In spite of Tomlin's comments about that offense in the off-season, I can imagine it. The Steelers have the makings of an extremely mobile offensive line and have already begun phasing in the necessary zone-blocking schemes. And they have a back in Bell who would complement Mariota and help turn this offense back into the physical northern outdoor running team that it must be.
The 49ers run the ball 55 percent of the time, and Kaepernick seems sturdy enough and his ballhandling deft enough to make it work.
Mariota's out of the same mold, and so I'll be watching him in particular late this season, as will, I'm assuming, Colbert.

We have developed a high-throughput sensor for the all-electronic sizing of synthetic and biological nanoparticles suspended in a fluid. We have demonstrated detection of unlabeled particles with diameters ranging from 50 nanometers to 1 micron, and the rapid response time of the sensor permits detection of particles at rates greater than 200000 particles per second. Our current efforts focus on developing the sensor to detect single virus particles suspended in complex cytoplasmic fractions.

Driving in Portugal
If you decide to drive in Portugal (and it uses to be a good idea, since everything is near and public transport is here and there inefficient), give a special attention to some details:
1 - The roads are usually very good and often jammed, or very bad.
2 - Most of the roads have no shoulders, so you may encounter a pedestrian, a cyclist or an animal in your way.
3- Though improving their behaviour in the roads, the Portuguese are "nervous" and competitive in their cars. If you're Latin, it will be easy, but if you come from a calmer country you may feel uncomfortable.
4- The road signs are acceptable in highways and the new roads, but absent or confusing in most of the old roads, and inside cities.
5-To leave a car unattended uses to be safe in the small towns, but increasing the risk as the town grows, specially with goods seen through the windows.
6- Don't hesitate to ask for help in any circumstance. Locals are friendly and always willing to be useful and nice.
7- AND REMEMBER: THE BEST SIGHTS ARE ALWAYS IN THE SECONDARY ROADSRelated to:
- Eco-Tourism
- Historical Travel
Most Portuguese walkways are made of small stones/tiles.
Be aware that walking these can be a challenge.
Even with the great weather better wear some good walking gear when you ar planning to explore these streets.Related to:

Watch out for the coastal plants. They have a natural defence: PRICKLES!

Taxis stories
Maybe you are alerted to the risks of dishonest taxi drivers (If you weren't, you are now!), charging in excess. They exist, and specially when exiting from the airports you must be careful.
However, if you set the fare before leaving, you will discover that the taxi driver is a nice and friendly guy, that, in the expectation of a small tip, will assist you far beyond his obligations. And remember, no one knows better the towns and their secrets than taxi drivers (well, in the villages without taxi drivers, you have the barbers).
Anyway, the common advice applies: be careful!Related to:
- Budget Travel
- Arts and Culture
Taxis at Lisbon Airport
Be weary of the taxi drivers at Lisbon Airport. Two years ago a taxi driver charged me 25 euros to get from the airport to the train station ( a 10 minute drive). Fares for this route should not cost more than 10 euros. Some taxi drivers that do not have the counting meters in their cars might overcharge tourists, thinking they can earn a quick buck. Not all taxi drivers are dishonest, however. Just make sure you don't get "taken for a ride".Add to your Trip Planner
tap water and mosquitos
tap water in the south of Portugal, especially in the villages, is not suited for drinking, got really sick after teeth brush with it. smells like pure chlor and tastes strange. be also aware buying of the known marks of the water in the bottles and take some antihistamines with you! got an intensively blue hematoma on my hip as an allergic reaction to a mosquito bite! you can really predict all these failures and save your vacation!

Worst nightmare!
Fires are the worst nightmare of any Portuguese citizen living in the country. On summer, there are many fires all over the country. So, never make fire on a forest not even drop a cigarrete out. Altought it's danger is also a crime punished by the Portuguese law.
Any information about a fire should be give to national fire number: 117.

I managed to get robbed 15 minutes after leaving the Airport in Lisbon on the public bus. His name is SANDOKAN*
Some may say he is a magician. He has been making tourists money and wallets disappear for 20 years. I have seen the photos going back to his youth in police files. I even knew he was a pickpocket, that's why I have 10 photos of him. He still got my wallet and money. 2 old guys (about 60 years old each) came on at another stop and blocked my view of him. I had even moved my wallet to a tighter pocket with a zip. This bastard has hands like a surgeon. When I went to the Tourist Police in Lisbon, they called in the undercover Transport Police. They knew him. So my whole first day of going to the VT Meeting in Cascais was spent with the Police in several locations making statements. Lots of them and signing them. He got about £35 from me, but cost me a whole day of sightseeing.
How does he and others work? Sandokan has a loose jacket over his shoulders. This keeps his hands free and hidden when he is in your pockets. He then uses 2 others guys to move close and touch you. They actually push against you. Sandokan then reaches past them and grabs your wallet. He is good. Too good. He makes 400-800 Euros a DAY.
My advice? Do what I do and use Credit Cards, Debit Cards and Travellers Cheques. Try never to carry large amounts of cash on the public busses, especially from the airport. That's where they work. Crowded confined areas full of people who just arrived. Please take care.
* Sandokan is his nickname used by the Police in Lisbon. Sandokan is a fictional Pirate from a book written over 100 years ago. Unfortunately for me – he is all too real.
The Lisbon Central Police have a special Tourist Police Unit in Lisbon. They are helpful, speak many languages and will provide contact details of your local embassy. They are located at Esquadra de Turismo, Palacio Foz, Praça dos Restauradores, 1200-000 Lisbon. Their telephone number is 213 421 634. If you need directions to the office, ask at ANY Tourist Information Office. I did. You can also dial 112. If you have been a victim of crime – report it! Also take any photos. I have donated 2 digital card scanners to the unit which can download from any digital memory card made.
The Tourist Police are located next to the Tourist Information Office just outside of the Restauradores Metro Station and not far from the Rossio main train station (Estação do Rossio).Related to:

TAP Portugal stands for Take Another Plane
TAP tops lost baggage tables
TAP Air Portugal is the worst performing airline in Europe when it comes to baggage delays, with British Airways in second place, according to data from European airlines for 2007.
Figures published by the Air Transport Users Council (AUC) revealed that the Portuguese airline had a delayed bags ratio of 27.8 for every 1,000 passengers using its services.
Top that off with snobby staff, paper thin pillow, metal sticking out of the seat, terrible food.

Lagos in the summer has can be a downer!
Lagos is glutted with tourists in the summer, and the town becomes unbearably crowded in August. The street 'entertainment' has improved over the past four years: In addition to English dressed up in cowboy gear and affecting nasal American accents as they whine out U.S. pop folk ballads and dated protest music, there is now a variety of entertainers on the street with genuine talent -- and a far, far different repertoire of music. Tip them generously, please, and maybe those hideously untalented "cowboys" will starve to death.
Central Lagos after midnight is given over to mobs of English, and now also American, young 'adults' in their twenties and thirties, getting snot-flying drunk and puking and urinating in the streets and leaving piles of plastic glasses outside the expat-run booze holes. Skip central Lagos at night June through August, it's a mess and definitely not the place for families or people looking for a quality environment.
Local hostility toward these types of bars and the problems they create has grown over the years, and the city is aiming to put the squeeze on these places and the type of people they attract.
Drive to the west coast near Aljezur (above) to get away from all this. If you want to spend your vacation falling-down drunk stay home or go to Albufeira.Add to your Trip Planner
Pickpockets on Lisbon transit
Footstool, my wallet was in my front left pocket. My GPS was in the front right pocket. I also carry a "man bag" when I travel. Usually, I don't use my GPS when I am on foot but we were lost so I pulled it out to get a fix of my position. I then slipped it into my front right pocket. I think the thief saw me put it in my pocket.
When I entered the bus, the old man got ahead of me, between me and my wife. He gestured that I should go ahead to join my wife. As I did so, he pretended to stumble and grabbed a pole with both hands, wrapping them around me. I immediately pushed him away, aggressively.
I checked my left pocket (wallet) and my bag and both seemed to be untouched. I noticed that he left the bus before the doors closed so it was obvious to me he was trying to rob me. I had a similar incident in the Paris subway which was thwarted by my wife pushing the guy away and screaming.
I thought all was well until I got off the bus only two stops later. I checked my right pocket and the GPS was gone. I entertained the notion of going back after him to wring his neck (I am trained in martial arts) but my wife talked sense into me. It was the end of the trip and I wrote the GPS off as part of the vacation cost.
The silly thing is, the GPS is probably useless to the thief. He doesn't have the charger, the manual or the windshield mount. I doubt he can read English to try to figure it out and the battery would run out before he could anyway.
A damper on the vacation but a good lesson learned. My advice is to enter any public transit vehicle with the assumption that someone is going to try to rip you off. If someone pays any attention to you or acts strangely, push him away, hard with both hands and scream "Policia" at the top of your lungs. Don't worry about what anyone else thinks. You are protecting yourself and your family.Add to your Trip Planner
Portugal Travel: Regarding the question of safety
Portugal is quite a safe country to visit. I was fine during my visit there in 2003 as a solo female, traveling from the northern part of Porto all the way to Lisboa. I felt safe the whole time.
As to "safety" and "danger," well, both are relative concepts after all. It depends on circumstances, who's telling the story, and who's depicting the narrative of a particular place.
Danger will follow you no matter where you go in the world, whether it's Timbuktu, Antarctica, the boondocks or whichever corner it is. It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy after awhile.
Of course, it helps to be positive and keep an open mind, yet also have the "street smarts" and commonsense so as not to fall prey into the hands of dubious characters or be in less wholesome places at an inopportune time.
Goodluck & Safe Travels!!!Related to:

Pickpockets are at work all over the world on crowded vehicles and this is something every traveler should be aware of. Some people candidly sport wallets, money or valuable objects in a very inviting manner. Never do this! At least, if you really don't care for your valuables, keep your documents properly tucked away.
What surprised me are warning signs posted aboard several historical and modern trams and buses in Lisbon. A useful reminder to avoid unpleasant inconveniences.Related to:

Downtown Cascais beach is declared unsuitable for swimming. Despite this, plenty of people were seen in the water. I assume this area is forbidden because it's a fishing beach and waters may be polluted other than dangerous for sharp propellers.
Needless to say, nearby beaches should be preferred.Related to:

Meanwhile, the unemployment rate rose to 6.7, up from a five-year low of 6.6 percent in January.
Experts said the increase in unemployment is likely do to more people looking for jobs.

The fear of Iraq and the rest of the middle eastern world due to the mishandling of their home soil. Iraq is simply the poster child. People tend to be afraid of what they don't understand.
America has a severe case of iraqniphobia. America is afraid of Iraq and it's practices because that's what the media spoon feeds them to believe. Sure there's problems, but how many of these problems we're caused by the "mishandling of their home soil?" Granted, there have been improvements since the Iraq "war" began, but all you'll ever hear or read about in the news is "bad news." No one want to report "good news" anymore. It's bad for ratings.

Andrea Nill: Palin informed O'Reilly that she would do "whatever it takes" to secure the border, including "militarizing" the border with 10,000-15,000 National Guard troops and building a wall.

Oh, Bill O'Reilly — It's "Our" Country, Too
Tanya Acker: There are many among that celebrated group of "We the People" who are opposed to the Arizona law but who nonetheless remain deeply troubled by our broken immigration system. I am one of them and, frankly, I do not need to be lectured about the consequences of illegal immigration by Mr. O'Reilly or anyone else.
Why CNN Fails
Randy Shaw: CNN's chief problem is not a lack of partisanship. Instead, it is that CNN's "news" primarily consists of opinions from partisan political hacks. Most work for CNN because no candidate wants to hire them, and it's an easy gig because they don't have to know much about the subjects they pontificate about. Does CNN really believe viewers are still interested in the opinions of the corporate-funded James Carville? Or that CNN will steal viewers from FOX News by hiring Erick Erickson of Redstate.com, who publicly threatened to shoot census workers? CNN is failing because it's selling stale conventional wisdom, which viewers are rejecting.
What Does Rupert Murdoch Want?
Jim Fuller: This is your duty as a citizen: Take a deep breath and try to watch and listen to Fox for a half hour or so at a time, at various times of day. More if you can stand it. You'll rarely catch even a single story that is not twisted to fit an extreme right view of the world.
Glenn Beck Has 'No Problem With Immigrants,' Likes Them More Than 'Most Americans'
Andrea Christina Nill: Perhaps for the sake of sense of consistency, Beck has essentially drawn a line in the sand between immigrants who emigrate to the U.S. legally, and those who do not. Yet, what Beck either ignores or doesn't realize is that the "front door" is slammed in the face of most people who would like to live and work in the U.S.

Anyone do it yet? Love my sons mini Summit when we take it out in the woods. My Merv is better on the flat hard stuff so I'm looking at doing a conversion. I already have the rins and tires from a Summit. I'll need purple springs and what else.
Rocker arms. what body u gonna run?
No you cant drive it
my RC is owner operated only
rockers, you can leave the same a-arms or get the extended a-arms on rear, lower your motor pinion down to 16t, can leave the same body or get the body mounts and get the body, pretty much that's it.
I'm going all the way, body, Rear A-arms, Rocker Arms, Bumpers, and body mounts. Dang I should just look for a Summit roller and have spare diffs and all. Love the look of the Summit but couldn't pass up the deal on the Merv I got, $200 cash NIB off of Craigslist.
Looks like the rolling chassis on eBay fetch around $110 to $140 shipped. Some have bodies and some don't. Body on eBay is about $40-$50, might just look at the brushed version from Tower.
Or just get what i need and covert. I'll keep a look out for a roller with body for about $100.
I did it with mine and it is much better on road. I bought the MERV rockers, a set of the traxxas dish wheels, dirt hawg tires, and a baja body plus a 23T pinion. Looks killer with the baja body and the mini summit bumpers. Looks real "baja" ish.. I put the MERV wing on and you can still use both summit bumpers so you can add the lights. Just take off both body mounts and use velcro on the body to hold it on. Worls great and now when I go strictly offroad it is about a 15 minute swap back to the Summit.
Well I picked up a new Summit rolling chassis on CL for $100 for my Merv to Summit conversion. Not really a conversion as I'm just going to swap electronics, already have Summit tires just need a used body. Anybody??
MERV to SumV conversion in progress:
Shock oil & springs, wheels & tires, LT rockers, & pinion installed...
and then with the very limited edition black plastic pushrods & toe links...
The exocage is on-hand, and the bumpers and body have just arrived. The body and exocage need painting before I bother installing the body posts and bumpers.
Alt-248 on the number pad = °
I'm almost done converting mine. Got the summit front and rear bumpers on, LT rockers, summit body with cage, summit tires and wheels. Have some purple springs at the post office I need to pic up Abd then have to change the diff and shock oil. Can't test it cause the ESC is pouched like my other merv. Both had like 4 runs on them and now the ESC's only turn on for a second then turn off. If I turn it on and quickly squeeze the remote it cogs like crazy and as soon as I let go of the trigger the ESC turns off. I have no clue what's wring with the ESC's. Both my MERVs are down with the same issue. I'm stumped. Pm me if any of you know what's wrong with them.
SUMMIT- DeWalt, 4S
Teaxximus where did you find the purple springs, thanks.
I got the springs from eBay from the seller toadztoyz. They were $3.28 per pair with free shipping.
SUMMIT- DeWalt, 4S
i would say they are fried...ive had mine do that in my merv and slash 4x4 ult. gota love that lifetime warranty...
???Why so serious???
I don't have either of my MERV's registered(I'm dumb and lazy) so I'm up a creek without an ESC
SUMMIT- DeWalt, 4S
I converted mine. Changed to Summit tires,wheels,16 tooth pinion,long travel rockers,shocks and springs.
Everything else is stock Merv spec. except for preveiously added Traxxas aluminum push rods and turnbuckles, RPM front a-arms, GH axle carriers(4), wheelie bar and T-Bone full skid plate(no TB bumpers).
Works great! Light snow, winter grass(dead) and even asphalt. With 3s it wheelies on demands
Last edited by sfiery; 01-23-2011 at 01:50 PM.
I'm looking to do the same thing. Why are there different rear a-arms than front?
They have a hummer body for these now! Im picking one up for my summit project. exotec makes them. Just some advice on a new look!

Saudi Arabia Says No to UN Security Council Seat
Latest update: October 20th, 2013
Just a day after having won a seat (for which it had lobbied) for the first time on the United Nations Security Council, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia rejected the coveted seat.
The reason?
"Saudi Arabia … is refraining from taking membership of the U.N. Security Council until it has reformed so it can effectively and practically perform its duties and discharge its responsibilities in maintaining international security and peace,"it said in a Foreign Ministry statement.
What is really going on seems to be that someone at the highest level in the kingdom is furious over international relations with respect to the Middle East.
Saudi Arabia is particularly disgusted by U.S. failure to halt Iran's move towards hegemony in the region. Close second and third concerns are the failures, in its view, of the U.S. to support the overthrow of the Muslim Brotherhood government in Egypt and to conclude the ongoing civil war in Syria. Both of the latter two conflicts are also seen as proxy wars for Iranian control.
Although nearly every nation expressed some level of surprise over the Saudi Security Council seat rejection, the kingdom had sent a strong signal of displeasure last month when the Saudi Foreign Minister, Prince Saud al-Faisal cancelled his speech at the U.N. General Assembly. The reason given at the time was displeasure over the body's inaction on vital matters in the Middle East.
The only other time anyone can recall that a member nation of the U.N. rejected a seat on the Security Council is back in 195o, when the Soviet Union boycotted its permanent seat for half a year in protest at Taiwan's occupation of the Chinese seat instead of Beijing.Lori Lowenthal Marcus

BROWNSVILLE - Census statistics are more than just politics for the Brownsville Community Health Center, a ramshackle ward known as a last resort for thousands of sick, dying and poor border dwellers.
The pharmacy shelves are bare, patients crowd the waiting room for hours and doctors run from one examination to the next. The clinic draws more than half its budget from the federal government.
"We're at our wits' end, at each others' throats because of underfunding," said clinic director Emily Alpert. "It's a mess."
Clinic administrators will be watching closely as the government decides whether to adjust its census numbers to account for households that were missed in 2000. The decision is crucial to thousands of community centers, social programs and hospitals that depend on government money.
The population of the surrounding community is a heavy factor in attracting government grants, said Paula Gomez, the clinic's executive director. A boosted count could also ease the patient load by leading to the creation of more clinics for the poor in the border city.
The clinic blames some of its financial woes on misleadingly low population counts of the transient Mexican-American households scattered throughout Brownsville. It is a complaint echoed along the border, where constant migration, fear of government and language barriers can affect the count.
"There are a lot of people here who don't want to be found or counted," said Ileana Hinojosa, a community educator in Weslaco. "There's a very real fear of the government, of where the information will end up."
That is why some advocates want the U.S. government to do what it decided against in 1990: adjust population counts to include people missed by census takers. Others, though, say adjusting census numbers is unfair and ignores basic constitutional law.
By Thursday, the Census Bureau must issue a recommendation on whether to adjust the numbers to Commerce Secretary Don Evans, who would follow with a final decision within five days.
The adjustments would be a fairly simple statistical alteration.
Once the census is taken, a second count is done of 314,000 households across the nation. By comparing the difference between the two counts, statisticians devise an undercount estimate for specific groups.
Say, for example, black men ages 20 to 25 living in urban rental housing were undercounted, on the average, at a rate of 3 percent. The raw census totals then could be adjusted by the same percentage.
"But clearly lots of decisions are political more than statistical," said Steve Murdock, chief demographer for the Texas State Data Center.
The question of whether to adjust raw data goes to the heart of government: To what extent are members of a democracy responsible for standing up and participating?
The largely Republican opponents of adjustment say the census should be nothing more than a big head count. They say that every household had a chance to be counted, and warn that changing the numbers could set a troublesome precedent.
"It would open up a Pandora's box. Every ethnic group, every city, would be jockeying for different numbers," said Marc Levin, vice chairman of the Young Conservatives of Texas. "It would create an incentive to exaggerate."
But Democrats and civil rights groups say census adjustments are the only way to make sure every neighborhood gets its due. As many as 3 million people - mostly minorities, the poor and children - stand to be undercounted, they say.

I was sort of in the same position. I went and looked at a school in Santa Fe for college and, while I had other problems with the school, the fact that I'd have to drive an hour to get to a decent academy threw me off. (I outranked the BJJ "instructor") on campus and when I rolled with him, I kicked his ass.
Now I'm going to Fresno State (I start in the fall) and I'm going to train at either New Era Martial Arts or Pacific Martial Arts. I'm going to check out the programs there pretty soon, but I was up for a day a little while ago and looked at the facilities, and both have nice setups. (new era has a cage, which is awesome)
Frankly, MMA wasn't a huge factor in choosing where I went to school, because it's something I felt like I could do anywhere, but now that I'm going somewhere where (at either academy) I'll get to train with pro-fighters (though not the top tier guys, honestly) I'm sure I'll be much happier.
It's a nice security thing for me to have. Even if I have issues with roommates and sh*t, I can still go to the gym and workout. Training is a great relaxer for me.
Anyway, we'll see how it goes. I'll say this, the fitness center at Fresno State is the best conditioning gym I've ever been in.
Also, you should see if the CC has wrestling. It's a good thing to try out, especially because it's not so competitive that they're going to force you to learn those details that are detrimental to MMA (they do that to alot of D-1 guys, and it's actually the one advantage Tito had over alot of the top wrestlers, though they tend to beat his ass for other reasons).
Still, keep up the training. Plus, staying at home will save you money and you can focus on your training a little more instead of having to worry about money. That's not a thing I'm seriously looking forward to in college.

Don't let it get away!
Keep track of the stocks that matter to you.
Help yourself with the Fool's FREE and easy new watchlist service today.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJINDICES: ^DJI ) was up more than 52 points as of 11:30 a.m. EST, but a few tech stocks were outperforming the index. Dow component Intel (NASDAQ: INTC ) was having a great session, rising more than 0.50%, while Twitter (NYSE: TWTR ) was up better than 6% and Marvell Technology (NASDAQ: MRVL ) rallied more than 5%.
Chicago PMI falls short of expectations
The Chicago Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) came in short of expectations: a reading of 59.1 was worse than the 61 economists had anticipated. The report is a measure of manufacturing economy in the Chicago region; any reading more than 50 indicates expansion, while a reading under 50 shows contraction.
The 59.1 figure suggests that the manufacturing economy, at least in the Chicago region, is strengthening, yet still not strengthening as much as economists had expected. Nevertheless, investors didn't seem to be putting too much stock in the number early on Tuesday.
Intel revenue could come in strong
Intel jumped early on Tuesday after a note from analysts at Maxim Group painted a positive picture of the chip maker. According to Maxim, Intel's fourth-quarter revenue should come in at the upper end of its guidance range when it next reports earnings. Intel has said it expected revenue of $13.2 billion-$14.2 billion.
Maxim Group cited an improving market for traditional PCs, both among businesses and consumers. Although Intel has begun to branch out into mobile, it is still largely dependent on the market for traditional PCs, making the processors that power the vast majority of the computers.
Twitter bounces back after multisession beat-down
Social media giant Twitter continues its post-IPO roller-coaster ride. The Tuesday stock surge occurred despite a lack of any positive news. Investors may have simply been bidding up the stock in the wake of a recent, relatively severe, sell-off.
Shares of Twitter plunged on Friday and again on Monday after a downgrade at Macquarie sparked concerns about the stock's valuation. Last week, trading near $74, Twitter had nearly tripled from its IPO price of $26 per share. Even with Tuesday's rally, Twitter is far removed from its high, but is still up better than 100% from its IPO price.
KKR plans Marvell shakeup
Unlike Twitter, there was reason for Marvell Technology's upward move -- in a regulatory filing, KKR disclosed that it had acquired 6.8% of the chip maker.
That alone would normally be enough to prompt a rally, but KKR's purchase was all the more noteworthy because of what it said it planned to do. In addition to disclosing its stake, KKR said it may engage Marvell's management, possibly pushing for a merger or reorganization of the company. Such a radical transaction could result in a lot of additional shareholder value.

This was a wonderful beverage, served both hot and iced. I made a double batch early and refrigerated it. I heated some and served it warm, which was delightful. Then I also poured some in glasses with ice, which was just as delicious. Tastes like a winter holiday! Thanks for sharing.
Great for anytime of the year, not just at the holidays! I've been drinking tea almost every night and this was an easy way to add sizzle to normal tea-more citrusy and fruity than spicy though. In fact, this reminded me a little of Theraflu, the lemon tea for sore throats, which I love!

Spring Semester informationJennifer Everett
209A: Tps:Animal Ethics
Are humans the only animals with moral rights? Does the suffering of a pig or a chicken matter more than, less than, or the same, morally speaking, as the suffering of a dog, a chimpanzee, or a human? Is it wrong to eat meat? Should animals be used for research? What should we think about hunting, zoos, or rodeos? This course examines theories concerning the moral status of nonhuman animals, the ethics of certain practices of using animals for human purposes, challenges to the legal status of animals as property, and/or questions of ethical activism.
Claudia Mills
209C: Tps:Immigration Policy: Boundaries and Birthrights
This course will examine a series of ethical questions involving immigration, citizenship, national identity, and cultural belonging, with special attention to recent controversies raised by U.S. election rhetoric and the refugee crisis in Europe. Isn't freedom of movement, including movement across often arbitrarily drawn national boundaries, a fundamental human right? But how can a nation-state exercise its right to sovereignty if it can't control its own borders and regulate access to the privileges of citizenship? Drawing on social science literature regarding the causes and effects of both historical and contemporary migration, as well as normative principles from leading ethical theories, we will assess the case for open borders as well as the case for limits on immigration. If we do open our borders, what do we owe to those who cross them? Is it morally permissible to establish different degrees of political membership: from citizen, to permanent resident, to temporary guest worker? Is there a moral duty to admit refugees fleeing war and persecution? On whom does this duty fall, and why? How can we best address involuntary migration through human trafficking? What role do race and gender play in migration patterns, and what special ethical issues do they pose for immigration policy? These are only some of the timely and challenging questions we will explore together in this discussion-based class.
Fall Semester informationJeffrey Dunn
209A: Tps: Darwin
In The Origin of Species, Darwin presents a compelling argument for the the theory of evolution by natural selection, a theory with tremendous explanatory power. This theory is critically important to understanding the biological sciences. But Darwin's ideas have been influential in other areas, including politics, ethics, computer science, psychology, and religion. In this course we will consider Darwin's arguments, his theory, and the controversies and impact of Darwininan ideas both inside and outside of biology. Requirements for this course include active participation, writing assignments, and exams.
Marcia McKelligan
209B: Tps: Ethics Bowl
In this class, we will prepare for the regional Intercollegiate Ethics Bowl competition at Marian University on November 12, 2016. I hope to have two teams of 5-6 enter the competition. To prepare we will cover the basics of ethical theory and then explore the particular moral and social policy questions raised in the 15 cases that will be made available in early September. Each student will take the lead on three cases, doing appropriate research, formulating a position and constructing a solid argument for that position. All cases will be discussed in detail by all members of the class. We will meet as a group for 3 to 6 hours a week (perhaps more once in a while). Students will write several drafts of papers that will form the basis of their case presentations. Those drafts will be energetically (but charitably and in a friendly way) critiqued by other members of the class. One goal will be for a DePauw team to win or place highly enough in the regional competition to earn a bid to the national competition in Dallas in February. The more significant goals will be to learn in depth about timely and important moral issues, hone your argumentative skills, and gain experience and confidence in the oral presentation and defense of your ideas. Some of you may already be familiar with the Ethics Bowl competition. This is the first time that participation is being offered as a full-credit course. Please see me as soon as possible so that I can answer your questions and we can determine if this class is a good option for you. You can learn more about Ethics Bowl at http://appe.indiana.edu/ethics-bowl/ethics-bowl/.

In the publication field several important events are to be recorded. A new journal has been launched; in January 1942 appeared the first number of the Journal of Neuropathology and Experimental Neurology. It is a quarterly, and the three numbers at hand show a high standard of work and bookmaking. The editors are to be congratulated on their production and on their courage in starting such a new project in wartime.
Another event of importance is the appearance of a book by Penfield and Erickson entitled "Epilepsy and Cerebral Localization."1 This book contains more good information on fits, what they are and where they come from, than any book ever published. The point of view is that of a neurophysiologist using surgery as the chief tool, but the medical and psychologic aspects of the subject are well discussed. Experimental data in the form of careful case material are freely
