I am an awesome girlfriend! And now I will do a horrible job of explaining why!
I'm pretty laid-back, but everyone's profile says that. I think I'm a fun person to be around. My sense of humor seems to be fully intact. I love live music in bars or parks. I like to go out with my co-workers or friends for drinks and/or dinner and occasionally some karaoke. When I'm spending an evening at home I'm usually catching up on TV shows, watching TED talks, or doing word puzzles. An ideal night for me is hanging out with friends with a few drinks while playing board games and/or Rockband. Wild, I know.
I'm not very Colorado. I don't climb 14ers. I don't have a dog, a bike, a Subaru, or a beard. I almost got a bike once but the guy at the store made me ride it in the parking lot and it was terrifying, so I didn't buy it. I might be willing to try it again. I don't drink beer, let alone brew it in my basement. However, I was recently introduced to lambic, which I enjoyed. Baby steps, right? I don't like hiking unless it's more walking than hiking. I enjoy camping as long as there are restrooms and showers available. I don't ski or snowboard but I love visiting the shops and galleries in ski towns! It is more than okay for you to love any of these things. I'll participate when I can and keep myself entertained when I can't.

text: Hi guys, I am writing the interface communication between our ISP software and ISPConfig and I have a little difficulty to understand the client_add method declaration. At the moment I am developing the creation of the client in the ISPConfig but I am trying to understand how have I to add it just the first time and then update it using the client_id parameter. The problem is the declaration not so clear for me. Code: //* Set the function parameters. $random_rs_id = 1; $params = array( 'company_name' => 'awesomecompany', 'contact_name' => 'name', 'customer_no' => '1', 'vat_id' => '1', 'street' => 'fleetstreet', 'zip' => '21337', 'city' => 'london', 'state' => 'bavaria', 'country' => 'UK', 'telephone' => '123456789', 'mobile' => '987654321', 'fax' => '546718293', 'email' => [email protected] What is $random_rs_id means?!

Thoughts on Clutter and Junk
Posted on 5th Jun 2011 at 11:50 by Joe Martin with 31 comments
It's been hard for me to pin down exactly why Jedi Academy feels so dated, as the graphics actually hold up very well for a seven year old game using the twelve year old id Tech 3 engine. Lately, I've come to think that it's the sparseness of the levels that makes it feel archaic. There are too many empty desks in the cantinas, too many barren walls; there's not enough clutter in the world.

Providing accurate customer histories, diagrams, maps, switch information, repair instructions and other necessary documentation to utility crews on a timely basis has always been problematic. Sending crews out with handhelds and laptops has helped, but the last mile has been printing those documents quickly and efficiently so crews can address issues on-site rapidly and safely.
Aging infrastructure buried decades ago is prone to disruption from natural causes, but also from very active construction crews and contractors. So distributing timely information on locations of underground or overhead transmission lines or pipelines is increasingly critical, not only for a utilities' own service personnel but for others working on or near those sites.
The highest priorities for utility crews remain maintenance of this infrastructure and responding to service interruptions; but many public utilities now also provide enhanced services such as energy audits, repairs, device sales and hook-ups and more, which require field techs to not only fix problems, but sell products and services.
Brother™ offers a variety of printing and labeling solutions for the public utilities industry that can meet these challenges and more. Its mobile printing solutions are ideal for full-page and small format printing practically anywhere, and in virtually all kinds of weather. Brother™ also offers handheld and desktop labeling solutions to mark and identify almost anything – with text, symbols, and barcodes – indoors or outdoors, with durable on-demand labels that remain affixed and clearly readable for years.
Brother™ offers a wide range of mobile printing and labeling solutions for the utility industry, including:
Print detailed maps, diagrams, service and repair instructions and other documents up to 8.5" wide with high-resolution pictures, text and graphics from compact and easily mounted units that are simple to use, connect wirelessly to laptops and handhelds, require only one consumable, and feature technology proven reliable from the scorching heat of Arizona to the frigid cold of Alaska.
Learn More
These mobile printing solutions for utility field techs from Brother™ quickly and wirelessly print receipts, invoices, customer notifications and labels from handheld computers and laptops with rugged, reliable mobile thermal printers designed to withstand the bumps, drops, and often harsh weather utility crews experience in the field, and keep performing.
Learn More
Produce durable laminated labels with crisp text and graphics that withstand extreme conditions indoors and outdoors – harsh UV, boiling, freezing, even microwaving, as well as high-pressure steam, abrasion, grease, grime and industrial solvents – yet wipe clean and remain affixed and clearly readable for years.

I have a Steady Betty and I hand wash it and let it air dry.
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I have a Steady Betty and I hand wash it and let it air dry.
Got fabric?
I saw (somewhere) a little ironing table made from a wooden tv tray. I used some dark polished chintz that someone gave me and layered cotton batting and Insubrite and covered the top of it. Just lay the fabric face down, then the "fluffy" layer and turn the tv tray upside down on it. Use upholstery tacks to fasten the folded edges of the fabric to the underside of the tray. When the top gets yucky, I just pull out the tacks and redo the top. Super easy, cute and most handy by my machine.
"You have enough quilts made when your soul is filled, your creativity satisfied and your fingers just won't work anymore."
Just buy a cheap light weight plastic table pad or white/light tablecloth and spread it out on your ironing board, table or wherever and spray away. All you need to do is wipe it off with a damp cloth or throw it in your washer on the rinse cycle, let it dry, roll it up and you're ready for the next round.
A bed without a quilt is like the night sky without stars.
I cover mine in muslin ... Haven't tried washing the original. It's a board I bought way back when for pin weaving ... remember that ladies? It has wonderful gridded fabric but the back is a single layer of fabric and feels like there's some kind of board in there so I don't want to risk warping anything.
I cover my ironing board in muslin too. I'm lazy so I just safety pin it to the original cover and when it gets dirty I unpin and pin on a clean one while the dirty one goes in the wash.
What a ton of grand suggestions! Thanks everyone for all the great tips and ideas. The ironing cushion is a Tailor (Taylor?) made - with the grid and some type of board inside - I have nothing to lose by trying to scrub it clean with a damp rag, brush and some elbow grease. IF I get it clean, I will do something for a removable washable cover. I have ordered me another one in case I don't succeed or cause other damage. My ironing board cover is in great shape - I try to use it and its iron for clothing... plus it's at the other end of the house lol. I do get up to press today but I don't want to go to the other end of the house every time ... Thanks again.

[Article]-Book Review: Coding for Penetration Testers
The guy doing the review ain't no slouch either!
Let us know what you think of the reviews, the book itself if you've read it and any of the participants in this book review.
Permanent link:[Article]-Book Review: Coding for Penetration Testers
With a title as ambitious as Coding for Penetration Testers, it's important to set expectations properly at the onset. In this context, coding is synonymous with scripting, and the content primarily focuses on Bash Scripting, Python, PERL, Ruby, PHP, SQL, PowerShell, and scripting related to various scanners such as Nmap and Nessus. Compiled languages such as Assembly, Java, and the C variants are not within the content's scope.
This Syngress published book by EH-Net Columnists Jason Andress and Ryan Linn strives to remove the mystery surrounding the development of security tools and scripts by presenting dozens of easy-to-follow examples. The ultimate goal is to alleviate the reliance on pre-built security tools and create more versatile and effective penetration testers. With this resource, readers will gain the knowledge to start such a journey that will likely have numerous, "That's all there is to it!?" epiphanies as they progress through the book.

Reviews of this property
Reviews for this host's other properties
It was a good quality apartment.
The only thing was that the guy was suspicious about me having a new bank card with me, although I payed the money to wimdu weeks before. In the end he wanted to have 200 zloty (around 50 euro) in the case it wouldn't work with paying. If my friend wouldn't have payed it I would have left in that moment. Well, can be, but doesn't have to be.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
Amazing! In the middle of Jewish district, 20 minutes on foot from the center. The apartment was clean and the owner very kind. Five stars!!
All okay, Was nice in Krakow. Nice flat, friendly contact
The location was excellent for me. Everything was within walking distance - if you like to run longer. So I could even do without the tram.
All around the streets buzzing life. Because of the many local people and the noise level is high until late evening. Before that, the sound proofing protects pleasant. Also there are many shops, etc., so that a self-catering is easy.
The property itself is clean and functional. It's all in the description. I did not miss anything and I would take the roost again. The shuttle from the airport is very pleasant.
Die Lage war für mich ausgezeichnet. Alles war zu Fuss zu erreichen - wenn man gerne länger läuft. So konnte ich sogar auf die Straßenbahn verzichten.
Ringsherum in den Straßen brummt das Leben. Wegen der vielen Lokale und Leute ist der Geräuschpegel bis spät abends hoch. Davor schützt die Lärmschutzverglasung angenehm. Auch gibt es viele Läden usw., so dass eine Selbstversorgung einfach ist.
Die Unterkunft selber ist sauber und funktional ausgestattet. Es ist alles wie in der Beschreibung. Mir hat es an nichts gefehlt und ich würde das Quartier auch wieder nehmen. Der Transferservice vom Flughafen ist sehr angenehm.
Very nice host, nice place and good location in jewish centre, near old town.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
Nice room in the center of Kazimierz. City Centre (Wawel, etc.) to achieve in less walking distance. Tram stop around the corner.
Owner very helpful.
Schönes Zimmer im Zentrum des Kasimierz. Stadtzentrum (Wawel, etc.) in geringer Laufweite zu erreichen. Strassebahnhaltestelle um die Ecke.
Vermieter sehr hilfsbereit.
Kracovia a wonderful experience, thanks to the full facilities of the apartment, its location, and the friendliness of Mauriusz after waiting at the airport on arrival even if there is a delay from the plane.
All necessary advanced technology. A whole taste.

Out of business. Personally after several
attempts to contact them I gave up on
trying to order smokers.
Out of business. Personally after several
attempts to contact them I gave up on
trying to order smokers.
Closing in on retirement.......
Good that you did. More than one has gotten taken by him.
I placed an order for a Rauchboy II smoker just after the going out of business ad appeared here last spring. After a couple of weeks and a couple of E-mails my smoker finally arrived. I really like it. It is easy to get it started and it keeps on going without any intervention from me. It is now my favorite smoker... That said, I am a hobby beekeeper......Sundance, as a commercial beekeeper, you may find it a little on the small side, especially if you are burning something like cedar chips as opposed to the longer lasting wood pellets. You may be better off inserting a can with holes in it into the large bingham type smoker as has been mentioned previously on other threads....Come to think of it as resourceful as you are, you're probably already doing that!
One other thing to ponder... the Rauchboy has a leather bellows. I used to dump the ashes and coals from my bingham smoker into a bucket of water and hang the smoker on the side of the bucket to cool off. Sometimes it would stay outside in the weather for weeks like that. I don't think the leather bellows would take that kind of treatment. I cork it and store it outside in a metal trash can now.
Just something to ponder before you plan your next vacation around a trip to Germany to pick up a Rauchboy smoker! [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img]
You cannot move a grain of sand upon the beach that you do not effect the entire universe.
"...you may find it a little on the small side.."
They make a big Rauchboy as well. I still
drool over getting one. I do the can
insert now and it's OK but I can't find a
big can to fit my big smoker. They are
either too small or too big.
Closing in on retirement.......
Too big is not a problem. Cut it up the side, compress it to the size you want, and shoot a screw through the overlap. Or where it overlaps, make two short cuts close together and bend the tab over.
Bullseye Bill in The Scenic Flint Hills , KS
Good idea..... I had been worried about
keeping the bottom intact. But it shouldn't
matter if you use the existing bottom. It's
the sides that need the ventilation.

1. Buy your beans in bulk from a co-op or health food store. If you let your beans sit for too long in your cupboard or pantry they will have a difficult time cooking and may never cook thoroughly. Tom and I did this once with some black beans we had in the cupboard for too long. I had soaked them overnight and then cooked them the next day but after 2 1/2 hours they still were not cooked, just slightly crunchy in the center. So I composted them and threw the rest of the bag into the garden. Pretty soon we had black bean plants popping up everywhere! That Autumn we enjoyed our first crop of fresh black beans! Lily was 2 years old at the time and had so much fun shelling the beans!
2. Sort though the beans and pick out any rocks or shriveled, discolored beans. Place them into a bowl, rinse them and fill the bowl with water. Let them soak for at least 8 hours but no more than a day.
Elimination Diet modification: If you are on Phase 1 of the diet then you can have this recipe as long as you use either mung or adzuki beans in place of the pink beans. For the sauce, omit the lime and peppers, you may need to add extra water.

… check your pulse. VisitScotland has just released a new video featuring two adorable Shetland ponies named Fivla and Vitamin, standing on a barren winter hillside in cozy-looking wool cardigans. The video was shot to promote the Year of Natural Scotland, a celebration of the region's glens, lochs, mountains, wildlife and other natural attractions. Check it out:
After watching this, the first thing I wondered was just how they got the ponies into those stylish sweaters! Luckily, VisitScotland has provided a video of that too.
Now I want to do two things: Book a trip to Scotland — and figure out how to get a Shetland pony as a pet.

Communication Professor Receives The Alumni Association Award for Distiguished Teaching
Springfield, Ohio - Thanks to secret nominations from students, colleagues, and alumni, Dr. Catherine Waggoner, Professor of Communication, received the Alumni Association Award for Distinguished Teaching at the 2014 Honors Convocation. This award is presented in recognition of superior classroom teaching and contributions to the academic life of the students and faculty of Wittenberg University, and it is the highest teaching honor a Wittenberg professor can receive.
Former students Eric Rusnak ('00) and Kristen Mathias ('00) presented the award, drawing from their own experiences and from the many nominations that were received. In their remarks, they noted Dr. Waggoner's initiative to create the Communication major. Even before the major existed, however, she created innovative Communication courses and inter-departmental majors to meet students' interests. Later, she collaborated with administration and faculty members to propose and create what is now one of the biggest and most popular majors on campus today.
"Dr. Waggoner is a visionary, a role model, and a dedicated servant to the students of Wittenberg. She made a lasting impression on me, and on countless others," said Rusnak. "Dr. Waggoner served as an advisor on my senior thesis in the Business Department, and she taught me many of the effective communication and presentation skills I use today as a litigator."
Waggoner, who began her career at Wittenberg in 1995 in the Department of Theatre and Dance, has broadened students' opportunities within and beyond the classroom. In 2012, she created an alternative spring break service trip to the Mississippi Delta, an area that is near and dear to her home and heart. In the classroom she continues to "pass the light" and create unforgettable experiences with her students.
"Dr. Waggoner ranks in my top professors because her teaching style fit, encourages, and expanded my learning style. I learned early on that I could succeed in school with very little effort, but I always loved and worked hardest for the professors that made me want to put in the effort," said Kristen Mathias ('00). "Dr. Waggoner is one of those professors. I wish I could encapsulate her better, but if you want to know more, sit in on a class of hers. Her strength as a teacher is unmistakable."
Congratulations, Dr. Waggoner on your award, and thanks for all you do.
You can view a photo slideshow (including some shots of Dr. Waggoner) and read more about the Honors Convocation at http://www5.wittenberg.edu/news/2014/04_11-2014-honors-convocation.html

Former Bethune-Cookman College Employee Sentenced for Fraud
Orlando, Florida - Today United States District Court Judge Patricia C. Fawcett sentenced King Ade Olowu, a former accountant employed by Bethune-Cookman College in the Fiscal Affairs Office. Mr. Olowu was charged with stealing student financial aid refund checks worth approximately $107,000 from December 1995 to December 1997 from the financial aid office at Bethune-Cookman, then having others cash the checks at banks in the area of Daytona Beach.
The Court sentenced Olovu to fifteen months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release, 75 hours of community service in lieu of a fine, and mandatory restitution of $70,143.29.
Evidence presented to the Court demonstrated that Olowu, who graduated from Bethune-Cookman in 1984, had worked for 11 years in the student financial aid office at Bethune-Cookman. Many studlents who received financial aid had left due to graduation, transfer, or dropping out, and they were entitled to a refund of their unused aid. But the school had failed to identify these students and send them their refunds, according to a United States Department of Education audit conducted in 1995. Olowu was assigned the job of getting refund checks out to these students. Instead, he stole many of the checks and handed them off to his confederates, who cashed them at local banks. Olowu paid his confederates $50 to $200 to cash a check, and they paid him the rest. The amounts of the checks listed in the indictment returned against Olowu varied from $586 to $2000.
The case was investigated by the Daytona Beach Police Department, special agents of the United States Department of Education Office of Inspector General, and the United States Secret 5ervice. The case was prosecuted by Bruce S. Ambrose, Assistant United States Attorney in the Orlando Division of the Office of the United States Attorney, Middle District of Florida.

For the first time since 1990, Disney Animation has created an animated short to accompany a feature release (the last time was Mickey Mouse in The Prince and the Pauper, released with The Rescuers Down Under). The film, titled Paperman, which will screen with Wreck-It Ralph, is an incredibly charming little film that also showcases a revolutionary animation technique. Told entirely in pantomime, Paperman is slightly reminiscent of the beloved classic The Red Balloon in the seemingly-sentient actions of inanimate objects.
The story concerns an ordinary guy who works at an ordinary job, schlepping himself into and out of the city on one of the daily commuter trains. One windy day, he has an accidental encounter with a nice young lady, who then boards her own train and vanishes out of his life almost as soon as she entered. Saddened by this near brush with what-might-have-been, the man later sits dejectedly at his desk looking at the huge stack of forms the boss has just dropped in his in-box, until he happens to glance out the window and discovers to his surprise that his dream-girl is at that moment sitting near the open window in the building across the street. He waves, to no avail. She hasn't seen him. Desperate to get her attention, he turns to the stack of paper in front of him, quickly crafting one paper airplane after another and hurling them from the window, hoping to get just one of them across the street and into her hands. What happens next is wonderful, sweet, charming and magical in the best sense of the word. Continue Reading "Disney's Paperman Is a Perfect Short Film" »

First - this isn't meant as a question whether using gotos is appropriate to use in an OO langauge. That's been overdone, so please don't let it degenerate to that type of discussion.
I DID however use a goto recently in a nested loop to escape it, and it got me thinking about the variables used in a loop, and the flow.
I tested the following minimal, working, c++ code:
#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main () { if (true) { for ( int i = 0 ; i < 3; i++) { looped: cout << i << " "; } } cout << "\nexit loop\n"; int j = -1; // cout << i; // does not compile, obviously as expected goto looped; }
This actually ends up printing:
exit loop
exit loop
exit loop
exit loop
And so on, forever
So... I expected i to be popped off the stack once the loop exited naturally (the first time), and the declaration of j to replace it on the stack.
I'm using Visual Studio 2012 Express to test this. I haven't tested it on anything else yet. Why does it look like the declaration of i isn't popped off the stack at all?
This also makes me wonder what happens when I use a goto to escape the loop - does the variable declared in the loop's header stay on the stack? It seems like it should, but after this experiment, I'm not feeling too confident in how I know the stack to work.
Anyone have any comments?

A couple staffing changes worth noting over at Morrissey Boulevard: First, the paper has hired Jenifer McKim to take over the residential real-estate beat previously covered by Binyamin Appelbaum. McKim is currently a Nieman Fellow at Harvard; she previously worked at the Orange County Register, where she led an investigation into lead-tainted Mexican candy that was up for a Pulitzer in 2005.
Second, photographer Dominic Chavez is leaving the paper to work on several book projects related to global public health. Chavez has worked on a number of big stories for the Globe, including September 11 and its aftermath, the Iraq War, the drug war in Central America, and AIDS in Africa. (You can see his work here and here.)
When I asked Chavez if his departure stems from the Globe's diminished foreign presence, he said no. "The Globe has been a family to me, and I've been very proud to wear this badge of honor around," he said. "And I've loved being a photojournalist. But I've been doing global health for at least 15 years, and every year when I take a vacation, I do some sort of global health-related project.... For me, being a journalist comes down to one word: responsibility. And over the years, global health has just touched me in a different spot. So why not focus on the passion and step up to the plate and be responsible?"

Greene County, located in the Coastal Plain region of east central North Carolina, was formed from Dobbs County (which no longer exists) in 1791. Tuscarora Indians originally inhabited the region, but after a period of conflict with English settlers culminating in the Tuscarora and Yamassee Wars (1711-15), they were forced out. Greene County is the site of Fort Neoheroka, scene of the decisive battle of the Tuscarora War in March 1713. The site has been investigated by archaeologists in recent years. The county was originally named Glasgow County, for North Carolina secretary of state James Glasgow, but it was renamed for Revolutionary War commander Nathanael Greene after Glasgow was indicted for fraud in 1799. Communities in Greene County include Hookerton, Walstonburg, and the county seat, Snow Hill, incorporated in 1828.
Greene County agricultural products include tobacco, corn, soybeans, swine, and chickens. The county has several lumber mills. The population of Greene County was estimated to be 20,000 in 2004.

This notion that its a matter of "perspective" is nonsense. My life priorities are just fine. But I take it hard when we lose and I get pissed off if we lose because we do something dumb on the field.
Am I depressed after we lose? Of course not. Am I disappointed? Absolutely.
Do I stress over every play? Yes I do. Do I think the Giants are as important as my wife and my kids? No one does.
I love some of you guys. You argue your ***** off, call me a hater about Eli and then you lay this "Its just a game" crap on me.
What a bunch of hypocrites.
"Typical Morehead!"..................and he didn't even mean that as a compliment..
When the giants lose, I can't watch anything football for half a week because I'm so pissed. That being said, I'm not going to come home and beat my kids because of it. lol.
Entire Team Let Eli down today - NYG4l
i personally disagree with ur premise about not having an affect on ur life (the giants)...for me, im a bit insane with my fandom, i can admit that. when we lose, it lingers and bothers me. but to each his own
I get pissed, def don't watch highlights, but I watch every other game I can because I realize how fast the season goes.
And on days like today, so far away from football, helps me appreciate it.
God what i'd do to watch a Jags - Raiders week 11 game right now

Town Square
Respect your food, and know from whence it came
Original post made by Tom Cushing, Danville, on May 2, 2013
Two recent articles caught my eye, in ironic contrast. The first was Time magazine's The Mystery of Animal Grief (April 15 issue). It discusses recent research into various rituals among horses, elephants, whales, dogs and even some birds, that look very much like mourning. Crows gather around a fallen comrade, for example; in silence (remarkable enough for a crow), they pile sticks and other offerings around or atop the corpse, (as if?) paying respects. Elephants have been recorded as they attend the body of a herdmate for a week or more after her passing.
Dogs, as every pet partisan knows, have been observed grieving in many contexts, over centuries. In Homer's Odyssey, Argus the hound was the only one to recognize his master after his long absence. More recently, an akita was documented over an entire decade, visiting the local train station in hopes of greeting its departed master. And the famous Man's Best Friend speech includes the lines "… there by the [master's] graveside will the noble dog be found, his head between his paws, his eyes sad but open in alert watchfulness, faithful and true even in death."
This science is young and its practitioners are careful in their conclusions, almost to the point of timidity. There is, apparently, nothing worse in their community than to be accused of sentimentality, or so-called anthropomorphism. But the findings are becoming irresistible, and directionally, they continue the work of those who have demonstrated clear evidence of what we would call "morality" among animal behaviors.
I had the opportunity to review Marc Bekoff's excellent, eye-opening book 'Wild Justice' for The Bark magazine a few years ago. The moral behaviors there are explained in terms of evolutionary theory, as being important in improving each species' success chances. I have been unable to shake the revelations of his work, or its implications: we humans and those beasts are a lot more alike than we've been led to believe, by religion and philosophy (the benighted Rene Des Cartes, in particular).
The other article, running in the polar opposite direction, concerns legislative proposals in a dozen states (CA's bill was recently withdrawn after it received unwanted attention) to enact so-called Ag-Gag laws. These purport to ban undercover investigations into conditions at slaughterhouses and other food producing operations. They are in response to horrifically effective videos produced not only by everybody's favorite whipping-radicals at PETA, but also the mainstream Humane Society of the United States.
Already enacted in seven states, Ag-Gag bills are intended to supplement laws that turned animal rights vandals into 'terrorists,' in the wake of several fur farm break-ins that foolishly liberated hundreds of the next season's fashion outerwear. In their most draconian versions, the laws criminalize any such investigation and its products (like videos), and render the investigators liable for any economic damage to the enterprise – regardless of the truth of the assertions made! Those damages can run into the multiple millions – the HSUS video in 2008 led to the largest meat recall in US history, and the eventual shuttering of the offending meat packer. Imagine, if you will, any other industry – say, defense contractors, casinos or stock exchanges -- exempting itself from whistle-blowing.
Supporters claim that abattoir operations are necessary, and inherently gruesome – one lobbyist compared them to open-heart surgery, which is more than a bit of a stretch. As such, the claim goes, they are easily miss-represented on film, to the possible detriment of legitimate operators. In fact, however, the practices shown – baby chick grinding, chicken bashing, piglet tossing, veal and sow cages, impaling downed cattle on forklifts come to mind -- have been gratuitous and indefensibly cruel.
Moreover, despite Big Food's preference that we believe our steaks grow in shrink wrap, it is hard to think of another industry where conditions are more bound-up with the public interest – even if you don't care about the animals whose flesh sustains us. Food-borne illness (certainly not all of it from pre-market processing, as many a fridge will attest) sickens 48 million Americans each year, and kills 3,000 of us. That sobering reality argues for no-free-passes, especially in these days of smaller government at all levels, including food inspection.
It is nearly certain that the Ag-Gag laws recently enacted will not pass First Amendment muster, as the Supreme Court has generally taken at least an intermediately dim view of government interference with news gathering. But until the issue is litigated, we won't know (especially with this mediocre crop of Supremes) and there will have been an interim "chilling effect" on this form of undercover investigative work. It's an act of real courage to put both freedom and financial future on the line for a story, however well-meant, and however likely is your ultimate vindication.
Indeed, returning to the first article, shouldn't we be demanding More transparency, on both safety and, now, moral decency grounds?
California famously passed Prop 2 in 2008, which provides for better conditions for food animals raised within our borders. Perhaps instead of banning video in packing houses, there should be mandatory cameras at critical stages of the operation, with real-time posting to the internet? That sort of transparency, together with certification of particularly humane operations – like that won by Foster Farms of-late, would serve to ensure safety, and fail-safe humane standards.
I have no conceptual problem with human consumption of food animals – as long as they are really allowed to be animals while they are living, and their deaths are swift, sure and otherwise humane (who among us could ask for much more for ourselves?). Our industrial ag system is very, very far from that concept at present. And we have more and more reasons – selfish and selfless – to change that. We need to respect our food, and know its story.
Synopsis: Ag-Gag laws fly in the face of new science that suggests we're closer cousins of our food than we may have realized.

On a dirt road in Tucson I saw a dead crow, probably the victim of an automobile. Above it, sitting at the top of a telephone pole, was another crow, apparently looking down at the dead one. A day later I noticed that the dead crow was still in the road. I looked up, and the crow on the pole was still there. That crow was grieving.

Two hundred years ago slavery was accepted in this country. Many leading citizens owned slaves and almost all believed Africans to be naturally inferior to Europeans. The idea of women voting was laughable. I have often wondered what we consider natural and acceptable now that our descendents in another century or two will consider deeply immoral. Surely we have not yet, even in America, arrived at perfection.
One of the most likely candidates for our (in the future) very immoral behavior is our treatment of our cousins in the animal kingdom. Eating them perhaps, but certainly treating them with horrible cruelty.

Hi Dirk -- There's a book called "For the Love of Animals" by Kathryn Shevelow that recounts the founding days of the animal protection movement in England. Web Link
She indicates that there was much overlap with the abolitionist movement. A BARK review of that book is here: Web Link

Tom needs to connect the dots between his love of animals, his love of the environment, and his desire to lower healthcare costs (Obamacare notwithstanding). Consider the following:
One acre of land can produce 20,000 pounds of potatoes. One acre of land can produce 165 pounds of beef.
It takes 1 pound of grain to make 1 pound of bread. It takes 20 pounds of grain to make 1 pound of beef.
It takes 23 gallons of water to produce a pound of tomatoes. It takes 5,214 gallons of water to produce a pound of beef.
Livestock production is the #1 cause of water pollution in the U.S.
The countries with the diets highest in animal products are also the countries with the highest rates of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, etc.
a resident of Alamo
on May 4, 2013 at 7:35 am
Somebody's a lot better a growing tomatoes than I am -- but point taken. I'm just trying not to alienate the Entire readership, all at once.
There's no Q that eating patterns are going to change (or return to earlier habits), and that much of that change could have a health pay-off. But only a central-planning-loving, suburban lifestyle-hating, birkenstock-wearing, pony-tailed socialist would have the temerity to suggest it in a blog.

This is a very interesting concept. :) My opinion is that this view should be expanded from a higher elevation. I am in agreement that humans and animals are very closely related. However, rather than saying animals are like us, I would argue that we are like them.
As a matter of fact, among the few things separating humans from animals is our ability to use logic, language, and learning. Although we know nothing when we are born, humans have a large propensity to absorb information. This is why learning and education is so important for humans (especially children).
Without it, I believe we fall back to our natural state which is that of the animal kingdom. We are at the top of the food chain. Where other species find balance, we are still fighting among each other...

I know you said you don't like reading articles on Salon.com because it's too liberal for you. But you really should consider making an exception this one time.Web Link
The article says when you account for feed production, deforestation, and animal waste, the livestock industry produces up to 51% of all global greenhouse gas emissions!
All we need to do stop climate change is to stop eating cheeseburgers. NO JOKE!!
The U.S. could impose a meat tax that could be used to stop global warming and fund Obamacare at the same time!
a resident of Alamo
on May 7, 2013 at 5:38 pm
Hi s-p: he did write 17-51%, which puts a bit of a different spin on it, for me, than "up to 51%" does (see, I did read it).
And then there's this guy Allan Savory: Web Link, whose TED Talk contends that we need More grazing herds, which might mean either more, or at least healthier grass-fed meats, to restore the planet's grasslands as a mammoth carbon sink that would counteract global warming.
Similarly, in The Omnivore's Dilemma, Michael Pollan writes that Polyface Farm rejuvenates its pasturelands in three phases: grass grows, then cows eat the grass, then chickens distribute the cow manure and add their own, so grass grows better (rinse, repeat).
Lots of possibilities; somebody ought to write a column about sustainability.
a resident of Alamo
on May 23, 2013 at 10:19 am
For anyone who's interested in reading a thoughtful article on animal rights/welfare issues, I came across this one in a compilation called "Michael Pollan's Greatest Hits." It's from 2002 and remains at least current, if not more so. Ultimately, it's about living consciously.
Web Link
Folks who've read his best selling 'Omnivore's Dilemma' will recognize Polyface Farm. The interests he discusses are quite consistent with Bernie Rollin's notion of 'telos' -- respect for the essence of the animal during its lifetime. Pretty good guiding concept, it seems to me.

Playboy.com's Exclusive Interview with Contraband's Ben Foster
We chat with the action star about his intense new film, working with Marky Mark, & the ever sexy Kate Beckinsale.
Born and raised in Boston, Ben Foster started his acting career in his late teens with roles on hit TV series Flash Forward and Freaks and Geeks. After a season portraying troubled art student Russell Corwin on HBO's critically acclaimed series Six Feet Under, Foster went on to major roles on the big screen in Hostage, 3:10 to Yuma, & X-Men: The Last Stand.
In his latest thriller Contraband, Foster stars alongside Mark Wahlberg and Kate Beckinsale as Sebastian Abney: the lead character Chris' (Wahlberg) longtime best friend and confidante. In the film, ex-drug smuggler Chris is drawn back into the line of fire when his wife's (Beckinsale) brother becomes indebted to the mob after losing a shipment. Wahlberg must run contraband bills out of Panama to make amends or risk losing his family.
In what can be described as a well-acted but incredibly slimy characterization, Foster's Sebastian brings to light the moral dilemma of loyalty vs. responsibility, and asks how far would you go to save your own skin if it came down to it? Foster sat down with Playboy.com for a quick Q&A on Sebastian, getting to know Marky Mark, and his upcoming film 360.
Playboy.com: Prior to filming did you watch the Icelandic film Contraband is based on?
Foster: I did not. If I'm being brought on to do the remake, and I haven't seen the original I try to avoid the original material—it becomes almost impossible not to, even subconsciously, steal. You open yourself up when you're working and have to be careful what you put in the blender. You never want to repeat or rip something off.
Playboy.com: It must have been interesting having Baltasar Kormákur, who starred in the original, direct you guys in the remake?
Foster: It was a successful first version of the film and Balt is a very ambitious director. He was excited to reinterpret his material with his new cast. It was a benefit, because you don't want to repeat the same movie.
Playboy.com: Tell us about Sebastian in your own words?
Foster: Well Sebastian is a man who works night and day to support his presentation to the world of success. We all know people like this, who have the right car, have the right clothes, have the right apartment, charming, but their personal life behind closed doors is falling apart. I based it loosely on a producer I once worked with who had a tendency to push a little too hard to hide his weaknesses.
Playboy.com: Your and Mark's characters are pretty close in the film. Did you guys hang out off screen as well? Did you know each other before?
Foster: We'd met a couple times; I've been a big fan of his for many years. We just hung out, shooting shit hanging out as boys. That was very easy; he's such a talented man and a level headed fella. One of the most loyal people I've met working in Hollywood—very true to his roots and friendships. It didn't feel hard to feel like Mark's best friend [laughs].
Playboy.com: Your character Sebastian is explained by the director as sort of a "consummate pleaser;" a guy who tends to avoid confrontation which ends up making things worse and usually screwing up a situation on all sides.
Foster: I suppose that he doesn't lean towards confrontation. It's addict mentality and addict mentality in my own understanding is based on living a lie. Behaviors and actions which are not life supporting. Insanity is described as doing the same thing over and over again when you know the outcome to be negative, and you expect it.
Playboy.com: He's a fairly complex character. Did you find it a challenge playing Sebastian?
Foster: Each role presents its own challenges. The challenge with this was, initially in the script, me and Mark's character weren't very good friends, we were business associates. Balt was supportive of encouraging my take which was, "If we make this a familial friendship, a deep and dear history—a past that means something—then the betrayal," and I don't want to give away any spoilers here," means more."
Playboy.com: What was your favorite scene to shoot?
Foster: I think Kate is one of the most underrated actresses working today. I think she's just absolutely terrific and I took great pleasure in working with her. Particularly near the end of the picture where she and Sebastian are talking through a door, which was mostly improvised. She's a doll; I really enjoyed working with Kate.
Playboy.com: Do prefer playing good guys or bad guys?
Foster: I don't really prefer, it's really story specific.
Playboy.com: What can you tell us about your upcoming film 360, what's it about?
Foster: Another charmer; a sex defender (Foster) has just been released and he's stuck in an airport during a snowstorm. It's a huge ensemble cast, a tremendous cast: Fernando Meirelles directed; Jude Law, Anthony Hopkins, and Rachel Weisz—terrific cast. It was a joy to work with Fernando.
Playboy.com: Last thoughts, what makes Contraband worth checking out?
Foster: It's entertaining. I hope they have fun watching it. (Contraband) could be your traditional run-of-the-mill smuggler film, but it has a bit more depth to it than people might expect.
Contraband is available in-stores and online tomorrow on BLU-Ray, DVD, Digital Copy, & Ultraviolet. Buy it on Amazon: Here.

Media Bites: Why Canadian Politics Isn't Netflix Material
J.J. McCullough | Posted 04.09.2013 | Canada Politics
Read More: Kevin Spacey House of Cards, Boring Canadian Politics, Canadian Tv, Netflix, Political TV Shows, House of Cards, Canadian Entertainment, Netflix House of Cards, American Political Drama, Canada Politics News
The fact that Canada has spent a decade creating nothing comparable to House of Cards, Game Change and many more political dramas is a shame, but hardly surprising. We're a plucky lot -- and certainly no slackers in the world of entertainment -- but this is one realm where we're hopelessly out-gunned. There's never been (and never will be) a compelling Canadian political drama for one simple reason: Canadian politics is not interesting. "Yes sir, we'll get right on that, sir" isn't the sort of dialogue from which compelling scripts are made.

Volume II
Roxbury Preparatory Charter School
What's New
OII and Former Assistant Secretary of Education for Research and Improvement Chester E. Finn Jr. remember former President Ronald Reagan; 650 people from the U.S. and around the world participate in a web-based dialogue on charter schools; Nevada students benefit from an AP Incentives grant; Secretary Paige discusses the link between education and the economy; a study by Mathematica Policy Research Inc. finds that Teach For America's teachers benefit students; the teacher pay plan in Chattanooga brings quality teachers to underperforming schools, according to a Lexington Institute study; and WVSA arts connection is a semifinalist for the 2004 Coming Up Taller Award.
Innovations in the News
KIPP seeks to establish one of the first charter schools in Washington State, plus information on economic education, school choice, and teacher quality.
Roxbury Preparatory Charter School Expects Academic Excellence from All Students
Many parents have dreamed of sending their middle school children to an academic "boot camp," a place where energy and curiosity can be channeled to a positive end, focused on discipline and academic achievement. At what can be one of the most difficult times in a student's life, Roxbury Preparatory Charter School harnesses student and parent commitment and uses it to promote educational excellence.
Seeking to narrow the achievement gap between suburban students and their urban counterparts, while also offering a college preparatory program, the state of Massachusetts granted a charter in 1999 to a team of educators who proposed a middle school in the poverty-ridden Roxbury neighborhood of Boston. Serving students from Roxbury, Dorchester, and Mattapan, the coeducational school formulated a philosophy that emphasizes a rigorous curriculum, character development, and family involvement.
With the approach that all students can succeed in a college prep program—even the 66 percent who enter reading one or more grade levels below the norm—Roxbury Prep requires students to take six academic classes a day, two of which must be in math and two in reading/language arts. The administrators, such as Co-Director John King, believe that if Roxbury Prep students are exposed to such academic intensity, their Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) scores will mirror those of other, more affluent neighborhoods in the Boston area. King says, "We do not shy away from the MCAS, because we believe in accountability. The MCAS provides a standard by which families, communities, and lawmakers can evaluate the quality and effectiveness of education across the state."
In 2003, Roxbury Prep's MCAS scores were the highest of any predominantly African American school in the state on sixth and eighth grade math and eighth grade science, and second best on sixth through eighth grade English assessments. An impressive 82 percent of seventh grade students scored "advanced" or "proficient" on the English assessment.
Roxbury Prep invites family involvement by requiring parents to sign a "Family and School Contract" at the beginning of each school year. When they sign this document, parents agree to communicate with their child's teacher every two weeks. If, however, the parents aren't able to help with a child's progress, students may attend a homework center, run by teachers and community members, that is open both after school and on weekends.
The school is not only demanding of students, but also demands much of its teachers. Teachers often sacrifice their evenings and weekends to work on improving student performance. They also work during the summers on the Curriculum Alignment Templates (CAT). These templates are important, because the school bases its curriculum on the templates rather than on textbooks. Additionally, the teachers participate in meetings on Friday afternoons to help them establish practices across subjects, so that students can use like strategies in seemingly unrelated topics.
The school receives state-funded tuition of about $9,500 per student per year and other state and federal monies for programs such as Title I and special education. Additional funds are raised by the school's board of trustees.
Since receiving its charter in 1999, Roxbury Prep has sent all of its middle school graduates on to high schools with college preparatory missions, and the school's recent graduating class earned over $400,000 in scholarships and financial aid toward tuition in private high schools.
A portion of the funding for Roxbury Prep comes from the Charter School Program, administered by OII.
Resources: Note: Roxbury Preparatory Charter School is one of the case studies in OII's forthcoming publication, Innovations in Education: Creating Charter Schools (see below). The featured school is innovative, but does not necessarily have evidence of general effectiveness from a rigorous evaluation. The success of the program described may not be replicable, depending on unique conditions in differing locations.
