Pulmicort Flexhaler
(budesonide) Inhalation Powder 90 MCG, 180 MCG
Budesonide, the active component of PULMICORT FLEXHALER (budesonide inhalation powder) , is a corticosteroid designated chemically as (RS)-11β, 16α, 17,21-Tetrahydroxypregna-1,4-diene-3,20dione cyclic 16,17-acetal with butyraldehyde. Budesonide is provided as a mixture of two epimers (22R and 22S). The empirical formula of budesonide is C25H34O6 and its molecular weight is 430.5. Its structural formula is:
Budesonide is a white to off-white, tasteless, odorless powder that is practically insoluble in water and in heptane, sparingly soluble in ethanol, and freely soluble in chloroform. Its partition coefficient between octanol and water at pH 7.4 is 1.6 x 103.
PULMICORT FLEXHALER (budesonide inhalation powder) is an inhalation-driven multi-dose dry powder inhaler containing a formulation of 1 mg per actuation of micronized budesonide and micronized lactose monohydrate which contains trace levels of milk proteins [see CONTRAINDICATIONS and Post-marketing Experience]. Each actuation of PULMICORT FLEXHALER (budesonide inhalation powder) 180 mcg delivers 160 mcg budesonide from the mouthpiece and each actuation of PULMICORT FLEXHALER 90 mcg delivers 80 mcg budesonide from the mouthpiece (based on in vitro testing at 60 L/min for 2 sec). Each PULMICORT FLEXHALER (budesonide inhalation powder) 180 mcg contains 120 actuations and each PULMICORT FLEXHALER (budesonide inhalation powder) 90 mcg contains 60 actuations.
In vitro testing has shown that the dose delivery for PULMICORT FLEXHALER (budesonide inhalation powder) is dependent on airflow through the device, as evidenced by a decrease in the fine particle dose at a flow rate of 30 L/min to a value that is approximately 40 - 50% of that produced at 60 L/min. At a flow rate of 40 L/min, the fine particle dose is approximately 70% of that produced at 60 L/min. Patient factors such as inspiratory flow rates will also affect the dose delivered to the lungs of patients in actual use [see PATIENT INFORMATION and Instructions for Use]. In asthmatic children age 6 to 17 (N=516, FEV1 2.29 [0.97– 4.28]) peak inspiratory flow (PIF) through PULMICORT FLEXHALER (budesonide inhalation powder) was 72.5 [19.1 – 103.6] L/min). Inspiratory flows were not measured in the adult pivotal study. Patients should be carefully instructed on the use of this drug product to assure optimal dose delivery.
What are the possible side effects of budesonide inhalation (Pulmicort Flexhaler, Pulmicort Respules)?
Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.
Call your doctor at once if you have any of these serious side effects:
- weakness, tired feeling, nausea, vomiting, feeling like you might pass out;
- wheezing or breathing problems after using this medication;
- worsening respiratory symptoms;
- ear pain with fever;
- vision problems; or
- changes in the shape or location of body fat...

Hey friends! I know things have been rather quiet around here lately, as I try to find balance in my hectic-but-fun freelance life. I actually have some changes in the works that will (hopefully!) be coming soon, and inspire me to be more present in the blog world. But I'm back here right now because I want to share our amazing experience at our Croatia workshop last fall, aaand announce our return to this beautiful country in October!
Early last year, Eva and I were tossing around location ideas for a fall workshop, and Croatia made it onto the list of possibilities. I knew nothing about this country. It seemed intriguing but foreign, and if the decision had been mine to make in the moment, I probably would have chosen Greece or somewhere that felt a little more familiar. But during a conversation with a chef friend of mine, I happened to rattle off a few of the countries we were considering visiting. Without hesitation, he said, "dude, definitely go to Croatia." He went on to talk about the amazing forests and foraging there, and I was pretty much sold. I excitedly relayed all this to Eva, and it was decided: Croatia here we come.

Ubisoft boss says next-gen platforms are 'coming soon'
Sony and Microsoft will roll out their next-generation consoles a lot sooner than anticipated, according to Ubisoft big cheese Yves Guillemot.
Apparently weve Nintendo to thank for it too, as Guillemot believes that the arrival of Wii U next year will put pressure on the competition to make the transition to next-gen earlier than they had hoped for.
I think its sending the message that the new transition is going to happen and were going to have new machines coming soon, he told Gamasutra.
Furthermore, the executive pledged that Ubisoft will continue to support new consoles at launch, as it plans to do with Wii U and has previously done with Xbox 360, PS3 and Wii.
"Were going to continue to take this approach, said Guillemot. We feel this console is coming with very innovative features that will change the video game industry and we want to be a part of that.
since everyone has been complaining abt too much of next gen news...thought will make one thread where all related news and rumors can go in..

Where can I buy Unpasteurised Milk
Hi folks,
Anyone know where I can get unpasteurised milk nr Windermere in the Lake District, UK?
I have been reading evidence that it is extremely healthy and can even reduce many modern illness's such as asthma - the law says that unpasteurised milk cannot be sold in the shops because unhealthy grain fed Holstein cows routinely have high levels of pathogenic bacteria in them.
What I want to buy is some good old fashioned milk from good old fashioned cows that have had their correct diet of grasses, clover, wild herbs and flowers... Anyone else feel like this, or should I just shut up and accept the govenments view that we should all have processed milk and suppliment our diets with Yakult?
In the US they have The Campaign for Real Milk (based on ours for real ale) and their website makes interesting reading.

Re: Where can I buy Unpasteurised Milk
Your best option will be to find an Organic Dairy Farmer and try to buy direct from him. Whether or not he's allowed to sell it to you or whether he will is another story.

Re: Where can I buy Unpasteurised Milk
Welcome to the forum Baron Weasel
The raw milk verses pasteurized milk debate has been going on for ages.
Personally , although I drank it as a child ( and still had asthma !) I feel happier now we have pasturised milk.
It is not only Holstein cows that can contain bacteria and the milk is pasturised for a reason. Salmonella, ecoli 0157 , Brucellosis , Campylobacter , Tuberculosis ,
Q fever , can sometimes be caused by drinking unpasteurized milk and can be caught from any cow........not just Holsteins .
#4 Mon 20 Dec 10 2:03pm
Re: Where can I buy Unpasteurised Milk
Hi Mummza,
you are right, I shouldn't make Holsteins the scape 'goats'. I simply mention them as they form the bulk of the UK dairy herd, the bulk of which are grain fed instead of being allowed to eat what cows eat naturally which is species diverse pasture land.
My reading suggests that the factory techniques used to produce ruminants such as cows makes it not only more likely, but quite probable that they will be affected by diseases that can pass into milk... making pasteurisation necessary... (I came across the figure of 1 in 4 factory cows in the UK needing antibiotics at some stage in their life?)
You say that "Salmonella, ecoli 0157 , Brucellosis , Campylobacter , Tuberculosis ,
Q fever , can sometimes be caused by drinking unpasteurized milk"
Personally I think that I should have a free choice in a democratic society to decide if I want to take a risk which could have great health benefits too - after all, I am free to go and buy tobacco products which may cause cancer, emphysema, death et cetera...

Re: Where can I buy Unpasteurised Milk
There are directories of raw dairy producers here:

http://www.naturalfoodfinder.co.uk/unpa … aw-milk-uk
We get Demeter milk at home in Switzerland. It's raw milk from bio-dynamic/organic farms, and really delicious. Really miss that stuff! Hope you find a source.
#6 Mon 20 Dec 10 2:29pm
Re: Where can I buy Unpasteurised Milk
That's great Anna!
How often do people get ill from the Demeter milk? - I bet it's pretty rare!
Really enjoyed the video on the natural food finder link you posted - I'd recommend it to anyone who is interested in exactly what happens to the food we consume!

Re: Where can I buy Unpasteurised Milk
It's quite the handy link.
I have no idea how often/whether people get ill from the milk. I doubt it's very often, as the product would have been pulled otherwise. So saying, the usual precautions apply (same as with raw eggs): I wouldn't necessarily feel comfortable giving it to someone who's never had raw milk before, for example. It also doesn't keep as long as the usual supermarket variety. In summer it will turn sour within two or three days - which is probably normal for milk, and expecting it to last a week is a recent development.
At any rate, we always had raw milk as kids and are still here to tell the tale.

Re: Where can I buy Unpasteurised Milk
Hi Baron
I buy unpasteurised buffalo and cows' milk from my local farmers' market (www.lfm.org).
As far as I know the cows are all grass-fed, which is how you should buy your meat, too.
There may be some health risks, I don't know - I haven't experienced any or heard of anyone else who has. On the other hand there is no evidence to support humans drinking cows' milk full stop - it's not what cavemen did.
My motto is always if it's natural, then it's more than likely to be better for you. The less adulterated food is, and the closer to it's natural state the better.
I believe that conditions such as asthma and eczema are modern conditions caused by altered food. People who are often 'lactose-intolerant' are, in my opinion, intolerant to milk that is heat-treated which causes the milk to turn into nothing but sugary (lactose) water, with few nutrients.
If I cannot obtain unpasteurised milk, then I opt for organic soya milk - although I do question whether this is good for us or not.
It's also worth noting that many of the best cheeses are made from unpasteurised milk, and people don't seem to get ill from eating those cheeses.
I hope this helps.
#9 Mon 20 Dec 10 6:50pm
Re: Where can I buy Unpasteurised Milk
Leila, your link doesn't work.
Not sure I agree that asthma, eczema etc. are caused by modern foodstuffs. Personally, my eczema flares up when I consume too much milk or dairy products - raw, organic, pasteurized, goat, cow, whatever. There are plenty of traditional remedies for these illnesses, suggesting people have been afflicted by similar conditions for a very long time indeed. I have a late Anglo-Saxon recipe for treating skin conditions that involves boiling a goose down to mush.

Ask in your local farm shop, they will know if there is a dairy farm near you. I buy "at the gate" from a small farm 2 miles from me, they make the best ice cream too.

Debbie was nice and helpful, she stayed in contact with us from beginning to end. She provided all materials and resources in the apartment and it was a nice space and convenient given its key location near King's Cross. Thanks for your help, it made our stay in London fun and pleasant!
super fin og ren lejlighed, rigtig god placering. Venlig og meget kommunikerende vært. Alt fungerede som det skulle. Kan varmt anbefales til andre.
L'appartamento corrisponde alla aspettative presenti nell'offerta, è curato, ha dotazione completa, la posizione per chi vuol visitare Londra è perfetta data la vicinanza ad una delle maggiori stazioni della metropolitana così da poter raggiungere ogni zona di Londra in pochi minuti, la strada è silenziosa e nelle vicinanze ci sono negozi e supermercati. L'unica cosa mancante è un tavolo da pranzo perché quello in cucina non ha posti a sufficienza se si è in più di due persone e così ci siamo visti costretti ad utilizzare il tavolo da salotto che ci ha costretti a mangiare seduti a terra. E' una casa che ci sentiamo di consigliare!!!
Superbe séjour, appartement très bien situé dans le Nord du centre ville (gare de st pancras) , avec des liaisons métro idéales pour naviguer et visiter.
Debbie notre hôte vous envoie des messages d'explication généraux pour la réception de l'appartement ainsi qu'un programme de visite.
Je recommande.

Ideal location, really close to St Pancras (Eurostar) and King's Cross (metro) but in a very quiet street, small supermarket nearby. Nice apartment, the bedrooms, the living and the separate bathroom are indeed spacious - only the place to eat breakfast in the kitchen is a bit small for four persons. Friendly and helpful owner!
Really great apartment, the location is very convenient. I recommend highly.
It's a lovely apartment near King's Cross station. Debbie has been very responsive and helped us with any queries posed. The bedrooms are adequately size and rooms are clean.
The ensuite bathroom is a bit small and the sofa bed is not too comfortable. However overall I would rate the place highly and recommend others.
Had a really great time in this great position apartment. Debbie was very communicative and the flat was well provisioned with lovely linen and bedding.
Debbie's apartment was very cosy. It's very close to Kings Cross station. We were five people and there was enough place for us, although the beds were not that big. We really felt home.
We stayed for 1 week at this location.
Positive aspects were:
- cleanness of the apartment
- good quality of beds
- close to city center, underground and supermarket
- quiet street.
Negative aspects were:
- "bed bench combination" in the living room is a nightmare. During day time you cannot sit on it, during night time you cannot sleep on it. Very poor quality. The owner could have spend some money on this.
- although everything is quite new, the general impression is the owner saved a lot of money on furniture, dish washer, utensils, ...
- move the 2 furniture in the basement to the living room
- parking cost are high, I parked at http://stratfordintl.co.uk/getting-here/cars (UK pounds 25/week); 30 minutes travel to appartment.
- I took into consideration the price (+- Euro 2500/week).
- Qualidade do alojamento garantida

There are so many health benefits for taking D3 that you can check in vitamin books and do research. But since my ND doctor recommends this brand as one of the better brands using the higher quality ingredients and standards, I usually stick with this brand.

A sincere plea for NT password hash help
I posted this in another room then realized it was off topic
I have been lurking this site for a few days now reading old posts and trying to educate my self. Looks like a fine place.
I am writing asking for your help and or advice. Heres my story.
Recently my wife left me and with her she took my almost 3 yo girl. She didnt actually leave me but rather kicked me out.
In doing so I lost my business (organic farm) and am now unemployed with no house to furnish for visitation w my girl.
She is leveraging me legally on those grounds calling me an "unfit parent". Their is plainly a lot of pain and resentment in this separation.
I am a good, caring father and wa a faithful husband. But, such is life.
I recently learned through a mutual friend that she has started seeing her old boyfriend from her early 20's and he has been spending time w my girl.
Also such is life except he has a very violent past and she left him because of that and his drug habit. Not someone I want to expose my girl to.
I am not going to lie and say I lost my password or some other bullshit story like that. I didnt, but I did manage to get her NT password oph crack was unable to
decode it any further.
I know the ethics here and I respect them, really. I am though pleading that if anyone knows where I can find some help decoding this hash for me, please please step
forward. I have tried the rainbow table thing but my computer is to old and I am not savvy enough to make it work (have tried several times) it just crashes my computer.
This is the hash 531f5b4ed008d8a90e1af385a6781544 I really hope I coppied it down right off of ophcrack. I realize that ophcrack only furnishes the password to get into the computer but she ALLWAYS uses the same password for her email. If anyone can help with advice or more please feel free to contact me here or @ email@example.com I do not want to take her away from herr mother but rather have some leverage of my own that will buy me some time to get a job and an apartment.
This may sound fishy to you and if you would like I am happy to show you my facebook account which would largly back my story up. ANY insights would be GREATLY appreciated.
Many thanks

This will be my 3rd spring as a beekeeper. I started with a package and last year I split that hive (rather awkwardly). My initial bees were Italians. I added a Carniolan queen to half the split. Going into the winter both hives were strong. Unfortunately my Italian hive now shows symptoms of Nosema. I am attempting natural beekeeping. Obviously I need more knowledge. Jim Miller spoke at our bee club and I have ordered his book. If I lose this hive I will start over. I am going to try a bleach drench but it may be too late. I look forward to hanging out here and learning from all of you.

This has been an interesting progressive thread from start to finish.
Your Moores are soooo cute! Black Morres have always been my favorite in the goldfish species. I used to have a gravel bottom tank, planted just for our goldfish. They were great fish and didn't eat the plants. They did however kick them out from under the stones I used to anchor them weekly. I had Anubias varieties, crypts and Lemon Swords in the tank with them...oh and some Water Wisteria which they snacked on. The plant put up a good fight, but eventually, the goldfish won.
Anyway! Great Thread!
|Gold Finger
The End
Well, it has been a fun and informative endeavor but my dirt tank is no more. The sand cap on these dirt setups cannot be vacuumed all the way down to the mud. Normally that is fine; the detritus ends up being eaten by the plants. The problem was that I had goldfish in there and the waste production was just too much for the system. The technique is great but won't work with too high of a bio load i.e. goldfish. Messy buggers. It isn't a total surprise. I fought the poop all the way.
Its back to bare bottom for me. We will see how rooting plants do without a substrate. Fine, I imagine.

|I may be having trouble with Nitrate too. I think I may have too little, which was partly to blame for a Cyanobacteria outbreak I recently had. I may have to consider dosing it, but right now I'm looking further into using fish food alone as a complete nutrient source. I hope I can just more. Lord knows the moor will eat everything I throw in there. He's around six inches now. I credit the low Nitrate for what I think is pretty good growth. I was hoping to get him over 10" someday, but I have come to think that kind of size may only be possible in green water ponds.
The tank is looking good!
Im still having troubles with nitrates, but im always trying to fix those!
Your moor is looking huge too!!

Update Sept22/2012
Have Moved the tank to my new apartment ( I snuck it in at 3am).
I had to separate and remove the layered substrate and had to top off the cap, so I used plain ol' sand which was all I had on hand.
There are some new plants and I have upped the light to 3-4 shoplight bulbs. I am adding excell. I had some BGA and wonder if the substrate caused it when some dirt got released during planting???
I'm off to europe for a week.

Anyone reading this thread to learn about low maintainance/water quality issues should note that this tank has ZERO nitrates after months of no WCs. I strongly believe that it is due to the soil base. The plants may well have been able to achieve this without the soil but my experience (quite limited) is that they don't tend to get it all all the time without soil. The anaerobic soil allows them to easily convert the nitrate back (with the help of some anaerobes) to a nitrogen form they can easily consume.
If there has been an issue (and I think there has) it is dissolved organic solids. In the future I will do water changes or, if I wanted to avoid the WCs, experiment with seachem's Purigen, which claims to deal with this issue.
I will stick with the soil base because it is a simple and effective, automatic, low maintenance, denitrification system. I am glad I tried this before one of those complex denitrifiers you read about people fussing with forever. This is a way better way to go.
This was an experiment and my tank won't stay like this. I quite enjoy some elements and will retain them while advancing the aesthetic value of the tank in the future. It is, likely to retire from the experimental arena and become a display tank.
|interesting thread. I'm planning to do something similar when I upgrade my sister's goldie tank, but sans stems. goldies, love them or not, are just little bulldozers. cute ones, but still.
Go for it!
It's looking good for you!
I personally like the jungle look though!
Good luck!

|The move to my new apartment may well trigger a new stage for this tank. I would like to get the upper hand on the algae, perhaps by upping the light over 1 WPG, and maybe even scape the tank a little. Perhaps even experiment with some "real" plants (stems are all I have had to date).
|Gold Finger
Well its been ??? months since my last post so I guess Its time for an update...
The tank is super stable. No WCs, no vacuuming and absolutely no filter cleanings. All I have done is top off evaporation and pull plants when they get overgrown. I don't even have to feed the fish if I don't want to, they do fine on plants, algae and baby snails. So I guess its a success.
I never got on top of algae. Its still beyond me
Ambulia gets munched a bit sometimes. Hornwort and vals never.
Am moving into an apartment next week. I am guessing they don't allow tanks. Will sneak it in at night
|Gold Finger
Ambulia has to go
Well... The hornwort is a real star in an ultra low light setup. It grows like a weed, especially if it gets long light hours. Those long hours promote excessive diatom growth, though. The Diatom has never died off in this tank. I think the dirt bottom is providing an endless source of silicate. I may scrap the dirt.
The ambulia grows so densely it makes cleaning the bottom too difficult. It won't do for a gold tank. I'll be moving in a month or two, so the tank will be torn down and the experiment will be over. The growth has nearly kept up with the nitrate production after two months without a water change, but the bottom has proved too hard to clean. The FBS is too hard to vacuum properly, too. The next time I set this tank up it will probably be with a simple, inert cleanable substrate and stems which don't need to root. Hornwort, and I don't know what else... Perhaps the "wort" alone could keep up with the nitrates in a plain gravel (or inert sand like PFS) setup. Neither the dirt, nor the rooted plants work well in trying to achieve a zero nitrate creep, no WC tank with golds... IME.
Hey goldfinger!
Whats the word on this tank?
|I think i get diatomes, i noticed if i have my second bulb on i grow them in a few days time, so i only have the second bulb on for a few hours every other day or so....

Intro to me
Last year I inherited a package and starter kit from my brother (who, by the way, has moved back into the state and will be collecting his hive and taking it to northern Utah with him). This was my introduction to beekeeping! I learned a lot and didn't kill the colony all summer or over winter. In fact, they look pretty darn good, if I do say so. My daughter (age 12) has been the primary beekeeper in the family and LOVES it, so she's getting a new package in a couple of weeks (weather permitting).
Today's question
I just inherited a couple of really stressed hives. It's my second year of beekeeping, so I'm really new at this. These are the 2 surviving hives out of 10 that were really bungled by a neighbor over winter.
They smell a bit sour -- not a good sign -- I'm thinking I should rehive the bees with new frames and boxes (the colonies will be a year old in May, but the hives and comb are old and nasty looking). I ordered some fumagilin-b to feed them. Will these steps be helpful?
Also, is drumming really the best "quick" way to rehive in this case?


text: We have a 30ft Winnebago Lite Five, it's a fifth wheel, we already had the truck to pull it. We did not want a Class A (the bus type) and have to tow a car. We have 3 slides and that really opens the place up, one of the slides is in the bedroom. We have a dining room table with a leaf and 4 chairs. We leave 2 chairs at home and I sew on the table. We are both retired, no one goes with us except our cat. I try to have my project cut out ahead of time and labeled and put in ziplock bags. There have been times when I've used the picnic table to cut fabric and most RV parks have a community room with tables that anyone can use. We have never had any problem getting into a spot in an RV park, many have pull through spots if you're not good at backing up. Plan your trip, do the homework and call the RV parks and ask them how long the sites are. I like the RV lifestyle, no bed bugs and you can still cook your own food or go out. We have met many wonderful people on the road. Everyone always seems so helpful. We've made many friends, learned new things, seen a lot of places we wouldn't have seen. We have met several people from Canada who have come to Calif. for the warmer winters. We like the ocean and when we are there I sew outside, doesn't get any better than that. My husband likes to read and he watches TV, we have a satellite dish on the RV. We usually only drive 200 miles a day, by the time we get up, pack up and check out of the RV park and drive 200 miles, set up in the RV park, it's a full day. We do have a home, and we are home two weeks out of every month and gone the rest of the month. I leave the RV packed, clothes, linens, dishes etc., I have a second set of everything for the RV. As far as backing up into a spot in the dark, no problem, we always use walkie talkies and in the dark I use flashlights to see and I lay those glow sticks that kids use on the ground where I want my husband to air for and then I just keep talking to him and give directs while he backs up. I'd say go for it, life is too short, have fun and enjoy yourself.

Details - The Emergency Fix
When a last-minute invitation leaves you no time to get professional help, use this three-step at-home routine. Face Mask: in a pinch, a hydrating mask with ingredients like amino acids and vitamin C can stand in for a facial. Your face will look rested and your skin less sallow. If you don't have a mask, use a face scrub and a moisturizer that contains vitamin E or chamomile. 1. Malin + Goetz Detox Face Mask ($38).


text: Ugh, we were down for the count, the whole family. ALL of us got sick over a period of about 24 hours. There was no one to take care of anyone else, because if we weren't throwing up, something else was happening (if you catch my drift) and it ended up being mama taking care of us. I'm sure I'll hear about that for a long time too, I should reward her with a trip to get a massage and a mani/pedi as well. Anyhow, I've got a backlog of emails and private messages to get back to people on. If you wrote to me in the past few days and I've not responded, please be patient.

ARSC T3E Users' Newsletter 144, June 12, 1998
MPICH for the T3E
A preliminary release of MPICH for the T3E is now available.
MPICH is a portable, public implementation of the MPI standard, written jointly by researchers at Argonne National Labs and Mississippi State University, and has been ported to a wide variety of computing systems. The Cray T3D port was first written by Ron Brightwell of MSU, and later modified to conform to MPICH's second generation Abstract Device Interface (ADI-2) by Shane Hebert, also of MSU.
The T3E port was implemented by Shane Hebert, who is making a preliminary release available for final user testing.

Quick-Tip Q & A
A: {{ The following snippet of Fortran code fails on the "write" because it would output 40*7, or 280 characters per line. It turns out that the maximum allowed is 267 per line, and that there is a corresponding restriction on "reads." open (unit=5,file="test.out") do j=1,5 write (5,100) (out(j,i),i=1,40) 100 format (40(i6,' ')) enddo close (unit=5) [ ... ] What if you *really* needed to read or write lines in excess of 267 characters? What could you do? }} # # Many thanks to the reader who sent this response: # Just change the open to open (unit=5,file="test.out",recl=1024) where "1024" is any large enough record length in bytes (I typically use 4096, since then I almost never have to worry about extending it again). This example is a little confusing because by default stdin is connected to unit 5. When you issued the open with a filename, the connection to stdin gets lost. On MPPs stdin isn't very useful (and I never use it), but I still avoid unit 5 because someone reading the program but not seeing the open will assume stdin (in this case they should realize that a "write" isn't going to stdin). The default record length (without a recl) is machine specific. There is no standard way (so far as I know) of changing the record length for stdin or stdout (unit 5 and 6 without an open). It is possible to issue an OPEN on an already open file (just leave out FILE=), but RECL isn't one of the keywords that is allowed by the Fortran 90 standard in such cases (it might be OK with Cray F90). An example is: OPEN(UNIT=6, DELIM='QUOTE', IOSTAT=IOS) which changes the delimiter for character strings on stdout from the default 'NONE' to a quotation mark. Q: [[ This question submitted by a reader. Thanks! ]] Since you mentioned the totalview debugger in the last newsletter, I have a combination factoid/question: In C, you don't need to specify the size of arrays at compile time (ie. pointers are basically arrays). So you could have a code fragment: double* x; double* y; for(i=0;i<SIZE;i++) { y[i] = alpha*x[i] + y[i]; } ie. the usual _AXPY loop. However, since SIZE is variable (say changeable at run-time), the totalview debugger won't display this as an array by default - ie. you don't get the nice scrollable display of all SIZE components. How can you view C arrays in totalview?

DENVER – The No. 3/3 University of Denver men's lacrosse team defeated Marquette 15-4 in front of a crowd of 2,029 Friday evening at Peter Barton Lacrosse Stadium. The win brings the Pioneers to 8-2, while Marquette falls to 2-6.
Senior Eric Law (Centennial, Colo.) scored four goals to tally his 10th career hat-trick and his fourth game with four goals or more. He now has 22 goals on the season. Sophomore Wesley Berg (Coquitlam, British Columbia) recorded two goals, bringing his tally to 31 on the season. He also added an assist.
Senior Cameron Flint (Georgetown, Ontario) and junior Harrison Archer (Washington D.C.) tallied two goals apiece, while senior Taylor Young (Littleton, Colo.) added two assists.
Four Pioneer goalkeepers combined for 10 saves in the contest. Starting keeper sophomore Ryan LaPlante (Fort Collins, Colo.) made four saves and recorded his sixth win of the season, while junior goalie Jamie Faus (Lakeville, Conn.) made five saves in 21 minutes of action. Junior goalie Erik Carter (Tucson, Ariz.) made one save in five minutes of action, while freshman goalie Joey Gigantiello (Shamong, N.J.) recorded four minutes of action in his first collegiate game.
"Most importantly, we got everybody involved in the game, and we got some contributions from guys who haven't had a lot of playing time this season," said head coach Bill Tierney. "I really feel like it was a good team win tonight. Eric performed really well. He was on the end of some great plays from his teammates, but he had a great game. He's a steady presence for us, he's a great player, and he's our leader."
Tyler Melnyk led the Golden Eagles with two goals, while Phil McFarland and Jerry Nobile both finished with a goal each.
Law opened the scoring for the Pioneers, finding the net 1:16 into the contest on an assist from senior Colin Scott (Ridgefield, Conn.). The Golden Eagles leveled the score less than six minutes later on a goal from Nobile. The Pioneers responded with back-to-back goals to take a 3-1 lead at the end of the opening period.
Denver stretched the advantage to four on back-to-back goals from Law, taking a 5-1 lead with 4:30 remaining in the first half. Senior Tyler Simmons (Belvedere, Calif.) recorded his first career assist off Law's third goal of the game. Marquette cut the edge to three on a goal from McFarland, but Law answered with his fourth goal of the game to give the Pioneers a 6-2 lead heading into the intermission.
Denver scored three-straight goals to bring the lead to six at 9-2, just over three minutes into the second half. Melnyk found the net six minutes into the third quarter, cutting the lead to six, but Flint answered just over a minute later. Senior Chase Carraro (Louisville, Ky.) and junior Bailey Dodds (Eden Prairie, Minn.) added goals to close the period, and DU carried a 12-3 advantage into the closing frame.
Archer stretched the Pioneer lead to 10 less than a minute into the fourth quarter. Melnyk brought the edge back to single-digits with 10 minutes remaining. Freshman Hunter Gore (Plano, Texas) recorded his first career goal with three minutes left to play, before sophomore Tyler Ekeroth (San Diego, Calif.) found the net to bring give the Pioneers an 11-goal lead to finish the game.
Denver will return to action on Sunday as it takes on Eastern College Athletic Conference opponent Bellarmine at 12 p.m. at Peter Barton Lacrosse Stadium. The game will be live on Pioneer Vision and 102.3 ESPN Radio. Live Stats will also be available at DenverPioneers.com. Fans can follow the action on Twitter at @DU_MLAX or by using the #DUGameDay.

Why I Relay: To celebrate survival of family, friends
Relay For Life is the American Cancer Society's biggest fundraiser. Everyone relays for different reasons.
For the fifth year, I and my teammates, the Crosslake Curettes, will celebrate survival of family members and friends, remember loved ones lost and fight back beside others who have been touched by cancer.
We have much to celebrate this year! That's what we all will be doing along with the survivors.
Dad has survived 12 years with prostate cancer and my niece is celebrating 23 years since her first diagnosis of leukemia right before her 6th birthday, then her second, 15 years later. She is a two-time survivor!
Also, her brother survived melanoma.
It's also the 100th anniversary of the American Cancer Society, the 10th consecutive year for the Pine River-Backus Relay, and that day, June 21, just happens to be my 27th wedding anniversary with my husband, Ted!
April 29 marked five years since I lost my mom to kidney cancer.
My teammate, Julie, will light a memorial candle and walk in memory of an uncle who passed away this last year. Memorial candles are placed on a special table and we light one for each person lost within the last year, whether it was from cancer or if they had it in their lifetime.
We do this during the Lighting Ceremony at dusk. We then light the luminaries all around the track.
We walk to fight back with those in their battle right now. The relay is an overnight event because cancer never sleeps. Once you hear the words, "You have cancer," you become a survivor and start fighting. I stay all night in remembrance of Mom's fight and the precious time spent with her in her last days.
Relay For Life has free admission and is open to the public. There's a variety of silent auction items and great food for sale, so come hungry.
The money we raise goes to the American Cancer Society.
Come see what it is all about. You don't need to be a cancer survivor, a team member or stay all night. Just walk and enjoy the food, silent auction, ceremonies and luminaries (especially after they're lit).
It is an awesome, moving experience for the whole family.

The X6 Active Hybrid was BMW's first foray into hybrids- a joint development with Daimler, Chrysler and General Motors. Entering foreign ground and jumping into an increasingly competitive hybrid market, BMW set about making a vehicle that was more powerful and just slightly more efficient. This created an even more limited client base than the base X6 was targeted at. The original price for the X6 Active Hybrid at launch in late December 2009 (2010 model) was just shy of ninety-thousand dollars. One of the most expensive vehicles in the BMW lineup. Sales were limited to say the least. And as of today, the era of BMW's lone two mode, nickel metal hydride hybrid has come to a quiet and abrupt end.Dave Buchko, a spokesman for BMWNA recently confirmed to BimmerFile that the X6 Active Hybrid has ended production. Additionally, there are currently no plans to upgrade the system or offer the current X6 in another hybrid form. He also revealed that the 5 Series hybrid, powered by a six cylinder gas engine and featuring lithium ion battery packs, will be the next Hybrid in BMWNA's lineup alongside the 7 Series Active Hybrid.The X6 Active Hybrid was BMW's way of entering the hybrid market with limited research and development costs compared to going at things all on their own. The initial problem was that, at the time of launch, the technology was already dated and the vehicle was too expensive during a time of tightening wallets. Where other brands went for all out efficiency with their hybrids, it would seem that BMW decided to make hybrid technology about performance first and efficiency second. While BMW's hands were tied given the technology that was part of the deal, the fact is that the six cylinder X6 was dramatically more efficient (not to mention the X5 35d).The X6 Active Hybrid achieved robust performance gains but only about a 12% improvement in efficiency. For the price, many just opted for the X6 ///M and its significant performance and lived with its relative efficiency.Maximum system output of the X6 Active Hybrid was 480 hp, with peak torque of 575 lb-ft. Powered by its 4.4 liter twin-turbo V8 and two synchronous electric motors the X6 was impressive in a straight line. It made the BMW ActiveHybrid X6 the most powerful hybrid vehicle in the world; with acceleration from a standstill to 60 mph in just 5.4 seconds. As a two-mode hybrid it was able to run exclusively on electricity supplied by the nickel metal hydride battery pack for nearly two miles with a top speed of 37 mph.With the additional hood bulge and 20? aero spoke wheels there was little mistaking it for anything else but a special model. At the time of launch we had some serious concerns with this vehicle and as time ticked on, the X6 Active Hybrid began to show its age in technology and function. Now is a good time as any to set it out to pasture.http://www.bimmerfile.com/2011/09/19/exclusive-x6-active-hybrid-ends-production/

____________________________Edgy, Controversial, Dangerous...
The X6 is the most useless vehicle on the face of the earth. It tries to be a tall riding SUV, but it can't go off-road. It sacrifices whatever practicality it could have had for the sake of looks, and terrible looks at that. Plus, it's a sports activity coupe. The only one in the world because NOONE LIKES THE IDEA OF A SUV THAT TRIES TO LOOK LIKE A COUPE.
If I had the money I would buy one though. Its one of those cars that will be worth something in like 30 years.

I for one think it looks bad a$$. At first i thought it was a monstrosity but if you seen or drove an x6m or the x6 50i, with the widest tires ive ever seen; i fell in love with it.The x6 hybrid on the other hand is just plain stupid and the only reason they built it was to have the most powerful hybrid. i look at it as an inexpensive way to get in the market and get some first hand experience with that tech.
FYI, X6 was one of the badass hybrid. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04DSXRelWlg

Volume II
California Outreach to Private Schools
What's New
Grant competition to select a group to manage the D.C. School Choice Incentive Program announced; Secretary Paige discusses 2005 budget proposal for education; OII releases Benefits to Private School Students and Teachers; and three charter schools are semi-finalists for "Innovations in American Government Awards."
Innovations in the News
The website, http://www.ExplorePAhistory.com, provides history resources to Pennsylvania teachers; plus information on technology, charter schools, and virtual schools.
California Department of Education Collaborates with Private School Community
In some corners, it's not widely known that federal funds can provide services to students and teachers in private schools. Eligible private school children and their teachers, for example, may participate in programs under the Reading First Program, just as public school children and teachers may.
Unfortunately, many private school officials are unaware of their benefits under the law. That's why the California Department of Education has undertaken an ongoing outreach program. In August 2003, State Superintendent Jack O'Connell sent a letter to key leaders in public and private schools that explained the equitable participation requirements of NCLB and urged meaningful consultation.
As part of this consultation, the state department, as represented by its Private School Advisory Committee, teamed up with the California Association of Private School Organizations (CAPSO), a consortium of pre-collegiate, independent, and religious school organizations. The goal of this collaboration was to educate the private school community on both the opportunities available to them, as well as on the obligations of the local school districts in implementing these programs.
The California Private School Advisory Committee, with the California Department of Education and CAPSO as co-sponsors, coordinated a series of workshops to bring together education officials from the public and private sectors. The three workshops, held in January 2004 for approximately 300 California private school officials, State Department of Education officials, and local school district personnel working on federal programs, aimed to make sure that all groups involved with implementing NCLB programs for private school students and teachers hear the same message. The workshops also helped to better inform these groups of the law, regulations, and guidance, so that federal programs could be implemented for students and teachers in private schools to the fullest extent.
Regarding the usefulness of a three-hour workshop, one public school district attendee commented:
"Not only were our private schools thrilled with the options we discussed, and grateful for the organized materials, but we discovered many ways we could be working together that had no additional cost ... [the workshop] gave us confidence in understanding our obligations, the responsibilities of our private school partners, and the benefits to all students."
In addition to the workshops, the California Department of Education has posted online documents, including guidance for private school participation in NCLB, provisions for equitable participation of private school students, data from private school affidavits, and other resources.
OII's Office of Non-Public Education (ONPE) conducted workshops in January as part of the California State Department of Education's outreach effort. ONPE represents the interests, activities, and needs of the private elementary and secondary school community at the U.S. Department of Education and consults with the private school community on the participation of students and teachers in the Department's programs and initiatives. The office has also published a guide, Benefits to Private School Students (see "What's New").

Officials at Pulaski Technical College today enthusiastically endorsed President Bush's State of the Union announcement of a new initiative to expand workforce training capacity at community colleges.
Jobs for the 21st Century is a comprehensive plan to better prepare workers for jobs in the new millennium by strengthening post-secondary education and job training and improving high school education. It includes more than $500 million in new federal funding for education and job training programs.
Dr. Dan F. Bakke, college president, said the proposal, if enacted, would help Pulaski Tech and other community colleges meet the workforce training and education needs of the people, businesses and industries of Arkansas.
"President Bush's proposal addresses a pressing problem at exactly the right moment in time in Arkansas education," Bakke said. "We at Pulaski Tech are encouraged to know that the President embraces our essential role in helping workers gain needed skills."
"The positive reaction among members of Congress to the President's proposal was evident," Bakke said. "We hope this initiative marks the beginning of a new federal commitment to community colleges and their role in promoting economic growth and individual development."
Community colleges provide a broad spectrum of programs, Bakke said, delivering high-quality and cost-effective education to those who are unemployed, under-employed, or seeking to enhance their career prospects and quality of life.
Community colleges also play a leading role in meeting extreme labor shortages in such critical career areas as nursing and other healthcare professions, information technology and teaching.
"Pulaski Tech has been identified by central Arkansas industry leaders as one of the most responsive higher education institutions in the state," Bakke said. "With an average annual tuition of about $2,000, we are also one of the most accessible."
The Jobs for the 21st Century plan is designed to expand opportunities for workers to access post-secondary education to get the job training and skills to compete in a changing and dynamic economy and fill jobs in emerging industries - including $250 million to fund partnerships between community colleges and employers in high-demand job sectors and $33 million for expanded Pell Grants for low-income students who complete rigorous coursework in high school.

Recently started SimpleFit as a way to stay active, and hopefully achieve better fitness, as a new dad. Sometimes certain events in life prevent you from going to the gym, or spending countless hours working on yourself, and I believe SimpleFit is an answer to that issue.
So far I have done L1D1 and L1D2. The results are below:
30 rounds in 20 minutes
This was a fast paced cardio workout for sure, and left me panting and sweaty. Felt like a GREAT workout.
5 rounds in 3:45.
Pretty good workout, felt good to do more than one pullup in a set for the first time ever. But I ask you guys, is 3:45 too quick to finish this in?

by Jennifer Harter, Public Relations Specialist, St. Catherine's School
Each Monday morning for the past school year, students in St. Catherine's lower school in Richmond, Va., proudly brought in their pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters and even some paper money. They carried it in sandwich bags, brown paper bags, canvas totes and nearly every container imaginable.
The collective goal of "Make a Change Mondays" was to make a difference in the lives of other children around the world who are in need. Proceeds from the project along with another school fundraiser during the year are being donated to ChildFund International.
The students' efforts remain true to the spirit of the school's sacred motto: "What we keep we lose; only what we give remains our own."
"We made a positive difference in the lives of others by putting our concerns into action and taking on a number of special projects in the area of community service," says Margaret Bloor, lower school director.
The students raised more than $800.
"It took a long time to count," says third-grade teacher Ashley Miller, who coordinated the project. "The kids had helped with some, but, wow, there was still a lot to count. It took me hours and I could hardly carry it over to the business office it was so heavy!"
Beyond just raising money for ChildFund, Miller wanted to tie classroom lessons for each grade level to the project. So she turned to the Gifts of Love and Hope catalog for some teaching ideas.
"I tried to choose things that were relevant to each grade," Miller explains. "For example, the kindergarten hatches chicken eggs in incubators in their classrooms, so I made giving chicks to families for food and income a [fundraising] choice for those girls.
"The second graders study Jamestown, where hundreds of people died of malaria, so I included mosquito nets as one of their choices."
At the end of the year when the spare change was tallied, each grade level voted on which items to give from the Gifts of Love and Hope:
St. Catherine's School is the only all-girls school in the Richmond area for junior kindergarten through 12th grade. An Episcopal school, St. Catherine's offers a rigorous college preparatory education through a community of teachers and staff committed to fostering the development of the mind, body and spirit.
Kudos to the students and to St. Catherine's School. It sounds like every child could benefit from having Ms. Miller as her/his teacher!
Wow! What exciting work to see children helping other children around the world…thank you kids and staff at St. Catherine's School!


text: If you believe everything you read online (which we absolutely advocate - the Internet never lies), then you'll be tickled pink (or red?) to see the correlation between buying sex toys and voting republican. According to a recent infographic, eight out of the ten states with the most sex toy purchases per person happen to be the same states that are leaning toward the Romney/Ryan ticket in November. While we're incredulous about the accuracy of these numbers (the data supposedly comes from "Internal Research"), we are sure that it's entertaining to compare this map to any map that shows predictions for the 2012 presidential race. Another theory - these are also some of the least populated states, so, maybe a vibrator helps pass the time during those lonely days on the farm.

Welcome back to a new and improved TDH!
If you are a frequent visitor to The Dented Helmet and you are reading this post, then you already have seen a piece of our rebranding efforts in the new theme for the board. This change has been a long time coming and is a result of the work of many people. We have wanted a more solidified look for several years but have not had the time or talent to do so. Our acceptance by Lucasfilm to setup a booth at C4 gave us the push we needed to finally do what should have been done long ago.
Below are some examples of the new logo in various uses and a glimpse of what our booth at C4 will look like! I am sure some of you will love it immediately and some will have reservations at first. Some of you might even dislike the new look, but please give it a while and let it grow on you. One of our reasons for showing it BEFORE C4 is to give everyone a chance to see and acclimate themselves to the new look. I truly feel that after years of wishful thinking, we finally have a unified and distinct look and feel to go with our very unique community!
Here are the two variations of our new logo.
Our TDH business card. These can be customized for personal use as well. We will have files available soon to do so.
The new TDH T-Shirt, available soon from Monkey in a Dryer! If you still would like a classic TDH shirt (with the angels logo), they will still be available until May 25, 2007. After May 25, the classic TDH shirt will be retired for good.
And of course, what many have been waiting for; the concept art for our banners for the C4 booth:
I would like to thank the following people for their hard work in helping make this rebrand happen:
First and foremost, Gino Sabatino, known on most boards simply as "GINO" offered his services to oversee the entire project and came up with the new logo and look. Gino is a graphic designer and marketing director and his skills and talent were invaluable. I cannot begin to thank him for his efforts, long hours, and educating us in regard to what we needed to have an effective look vs what we thought we wanted.
Next, I must thank Shockwave for the work he performed in creating the new board themes and icons. He was incredibly patient as we redid and critiqued his work again and again. Our members have been begging for a Boba theme for the past 5 years and Shockwave has finally provided one.
Next, I must thank Count Dookie who singlehandedly rewrote our frontpage in css and javascript, making it incredibly slick, and easy to update. As with Rodney, Rich showed an incredible amount of patience as he was asked to "fix" one thing after another on a page that was already nearing perfection.
I also want to thank all of those who donated to the C4 fund. Your generosity was overwhelming to say the least and helped prompt us to make this change. We truly hope this new, more uniform look helps solidify the sense of community and oneness all the more and gives you a "home" that you can be proud of.
Thanks to the admin staff for their comments and thoughts and patience as we reworked the look again and again!
As you see, we only have images of TDH members in our banners and frontpage, no images of the screen used costumes. YOU are a large part of this rebranding and your efforts in regard to your costume building has helped to provide us with graphical elements unlike any other venue on the net. My helmet is off to those represented and those who will be represented in the future in our banners and frontpage as we plan to add more and more rotating images. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to use your work to help take the look of this board to the next level. As has always been the case, it is you, our members who have made this board what it is. Thank you all.
Finally, this upgrade is still a WIP. There will be minor changes and improvements as we have time. Two of the big things that are at the top of the list are finishing up a light boba and light jango theme. If you have any suggestions for improving any part of the new layout, please post here and we will take your comments into consideration. Thanks again and we hope you enjoy the new board!

Making Time for Mindfulness
ACE Fit Share
November 13, 2012, 12:00AM
With the holiday season upon us and the year quickly coming to a close, we decided to take a look back at some of the best new fitness DVD's we've reviewed here at ACE over the last few months. From high-intensity workouts to routines designed to strengthen and sculpt the entire body, here are three of our favorite newly released (or soon to be released) workout videos.
In this day and age where everyone seems to be so pressed for time, who wouldn't want to maximize their results by making the most of their time spent exercising? As a follow-up to the wildly successful Breathless Body: The Ultimate Cardio Burn, this second installment in the series, Breathless Body 2: The Edge, provides a challenging 55-minute cardio workout that will work your entire body, pushing you to your limits, while helping you to take your fitness to the next level. Using a cardiorespiratory training technique known as high-intensity interval training (which is personally one of my favorite ways to train) and involving no equipment at all, this workout is divided up into four different sets, each featuring three dynamic drills. Progressions and regressions options are offered for each of the drills, allowing you to customize your experience by choosing the movement option that is best suited for your fitness level. Amy also urges exercisers to pause the video at any time if they need additional time to recover between drills. Each drill is performed for 30 seconds, followed by 15 seconds of rest, and the sequence of three drills is repeated three times to complete one set. Amy ups the challenge in this workout by following the four sets with one final six-minute set that revisits all 12 of the drills featured throughout the video. Given that this workout is high-intensity in nature and involves various plyometric exercises, safety and proper technique is of the utmost importance, this DVD is best suited for those who have an established base of fitness.
Price: $19.99 Where to buy: www.amydixonfitness.com
As a big fan of Chris Freytag's 10 Pound Slimdown Xtreme, which released late last year, I thought I'd be hard-pressed to come across another DVD that offered the same level of quality, detailed instruction and effective exercises—that is, until I got a sneak peek at the new 10 Pounds Down Better Body Blast, which releases on December 4th. With a similar-sounding name and featuring another dynamic instructor, Jessica Smith, this DVDdelivers fun strength-training routines that are conveniently divided into three 20-minute segments (arms, abs and legs), and require nothing more than a pair of dumbbells and an exercise mat. With the option to tackle each workout individually if you're pressed for time, or the ability to combine them together to create one awesome full-body workout, this DVD is jam-packed with innovative, functional exercises that will undoubtedly have you breaking a serious sweat.
Price: $14.98 Where to buy: www.gaiam.com
For those seeking a mind-body approach to health and fitness, STOTT PILATES® Intense Body Blast: Pilates Interval Training Level 1 provides a total-body workout that focuses on quality of movement along with integrity of breath. With a run time of just over 30 minutes, this routine can be integrated into even the busiest of schedule and, requiring only a sticky mat, can easily be performed in a relatively small space. The workout begins with a dynamic warm-up and is followed by an assortment of exercises designed to strengthen the musculature of core and enhance both stability and mobility, while also strengthening the major muscles of the body. Instructor PJ O'Clair does an amazing job cueing each movement, continually focusing on proper alignment and helping to ensure the effectiveness of each exercise. She also seamlessly transitions from one movement to the next, creating a well-rounded, easy-to-follow beginner routine that is sure to work your entire body from head to toe.
Price: $14.95 Where to buy: www.merrithew.com
3 Tips for Giving the Gift of Fitness
If you're choosing to share the gift of fitness with your loved ones this holiday season, selecting the right DVD for that special someone may seem like a challenge. Here are few simple questions to ask yourself before choosing a workout DVD that will help you make the best choice:
Having a hard time choosing the right DVD for you? With advances in technology, streaming fitness videos are another great option to help you stay on top of your fitness this holiday season. With the ability to access them anytime and anywhere, online exercise videos offer the flexibility to access an assortment of fitness modalities, such as Pilates, kickboxing and cardio dance, all taught by a variety of quality instructors and without the need to commit to just one DVD!

Defense Secretary Panetta Discusses Tough Negotiations over Lockheed F-35 Fighters

No contract after nearly a year of negotiations
Negotiations between the U.S. government and Lockheed Martin over the $400 billion F-35 Lightning II program have been tense.
Defense News
reports that one deputy program manager said that the relationship between the Department of Defense and Lockheed is "the worst I have ever seen."
After that comment was made, U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta stated, "I don't know that I would portray it in those terms. These are difficult negotiations, as they always are when you're dealing with the amount of money and the complexity that's involved with the Joint Strike Fighter."
Defense News
reports that last week Deputy Defense Secretary Ashton Carter put his support behind comments made by Air Force Major General Christopher Bogdan. Bogdan had harsh words for Lockheed Martin's failure to sign a contract with the Pentagon for 32 F-35 fighters after almost a
year of negotiations
However, Panetta does not agree that the relationship between the U.S. government Lockheed is the worst he's ever seen.
Lockheed F-35B Lightning II fighters [Source: Lockheed Martin]
"I don't share it, number one, because … I don't know the history of just how much has gone on in the past," Panetta said. "But at least from what I have seen at this point, my view of it is these are very tough negotiations, but they aren't a reflection that either side has given up or thinks that the other side, you know, is in a more difficult state at all."
Panetta is also reportedly unhappy that Congress won't be back in session until after the elections in November. An initial round of budget cuts in defense spending is set to begin in January. With Congress out of session until the elections are over, there is no chance of avoiding or delaying the defense spending cuts.
Panetta said, "I'll take whatever the hell deal they can make right now to deal with sequestration. The problem now is that they've left town and all of this has now been put off into the lame duck session."
"We need stability," he said. "You want a strong national defense for this country? I need to have some stability. And that's what I'm asking the Congress to do: Give me some stability with regards to the funding of the Defense Department for the future."
