text: After the Mexican War, the question of whether to allow or prohibit slavery in the new western territories threatened to rupture the Union. Slavery's extension to new states could give the slaveholding South a majority in the Senate; its prohibition would favor the North. In the Compromise of 1850, Congress admitted California as a free state; settled boundaries of Texas and New Mexico; created a territorial government for Utah; upheld the rights of slaveholders over escaped slaves; and banned slave trading in the nation's capital.

First group done with their SD and holy moly what a score from Hawayek/Baker! 60.72. Way past A/E's score from last year!
I'm not watching..but will catch the in-demand later.
ETA: Also it's by far the highest junior SD score at Nationals. Granted it's only three years. But still it's a record.
ETA 2: A/E obviously haven't gone yet, so the record could still be broken.
ETA 3: And Lorraine McNamara and Quinn Carpenter just broke the record with a 63+ score. Do we have a lenient tech panel or what?

My name is Christopher and I am located in Rowan County, KY. I have been lurking here for a few days and reading for the last few weeks everything I can find. I suppose I should introduce myself by now, so Greetings.
I have never had any experience with bees or the keeping there of. It is a tad bit overwhelming, the amount of information available. I am interested in starting and maintaining just 2-4 hives for self supply and pollination. Still reading and thinking (maybe somewhat to analytical).
I believe it may be getting too late in the year to get a hive situated to winter well in this area. My intention is to start fresh next year and see where it goes.

English undergraduate majors develop a broad base of literary, cultural, and personal knowledge. The major's classes cultivate skills essential to any future profession, including concise writing and the ability to make oral presentations with ease.
This major focuses on significant works of American and world literature, while emphasizing interdisciplinary study, to expose you to a cross-section of historical and cultural contexts. The curriculum, placing equal weight on theory and practice, encourages you to participate in research, pursue independent study, and develop relationships with faculty and professional mentors so you can grow as a scholar and a professional. You will be able to develop your writing, research, and communications skills through the first-year writing sequence, 3000-level research-focused courses, and the culminating senior seminar project.
As an English major, you'll benefit from more than 270 hours of internships beginning your freshman year, which are ideal for exploring work environments and career pathways. Internship sites in this major have included The Harvard Review, Teen Voices, and the Museum of Science.
Study abroad sites have included London and Spain, with visits to Shakespeare's Globe, the National, and the Orpheum Theatres.

Drama Track: Provides a firm foundation in dramatic literature. Majors also focus on the practical theater skills needed to perform on stage or work behind the scenes.

New MacBook Pro
I currently work as a network admin with the view to become a pen tester, and at the moment I don't have a portable rig.
The pricetag is massive (especially when you account for the fact it needs an extra £30 for a thunderbolt ethernet adapter) but the stats, for a mac are really impressive, with great resources for coding, cracking and footprinting at the same time. It even has a gorgeous retina display for watching movies in those long hotel stays.
The machine is clearly aimed at the photo/video editing market, but is it a viable option for us? has anyone here used a mac for pen testing/networking before?
It's worth mentioning that it would be a huge upgrade on my home and work pc.

Got an aluminum Range finder stalk from Rich's Armor today. It's pretty nice but I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to installing it. Looks like I'm gonna have to drill out a slot on the resin RF, keep it rectangular and insert the stalk in place.
Is this typical for a metal RF?
Man, I'm learning all new modeling things around here.

Russia's Oil Induced Plunge: A Blessing in Disguise?
Gold gets the attention, but the market has been cruel to oil as well. Brent crude futures have dropped 10.8% to $98.19 in April, according to Fact Set, while WTI Crude, the U.S. benchmark, has dropped 10.9%, only three percentage points behind gold's 13.7% drop.
Capital Economics' Julian Jessop expects oil to end the year under $100 and to fall further in coming years. He writes:
We remain relatively bearish for three reasons. First, past experience shows that the current high levels of oil prices are a major constraint on demand. Second, the financial backdrop for oil (and other industrial commodities) should remain poor. And third, the scope for additional global policy stimulus is now limited.
Russia has been among the bigger losers, at least in the short term. The Market Vectors Russia ETF (RSX) has dropped 6.3% this week, while iShares MSCI Emerging Markets Index ETF (EEM) has dipped 2.1%. Shares of OAO Lukoil (LKOD.L) have dropped 3.6% in London and Sberbank (SBER.L) has plunged 5.6%.
Capital Economics' Neil Shearing surveys the situation:
...the drop in oil prices has understandably rattled Russian financial markets. Energy firms account for around 50% of Russia's stock market capitalisation and the drop in the price of Brent crude from $118pb in February to less than $100pb has coincided with a fall of over 15% in Russia's benchmark RTS equity index.
Russia's economy is clearly worse off as a result of lower oil prices. After all, it is the world's second largest oil producer (just behind Saudi Arabia) and oil and gas accounts for 60% of total exports. A rough rule of thumb is that for every $1pb that oil prices fall, Russia loses around $2bn in annual export revenues.
Don't expect Russia's economic stability to get called into question, however. That would take Brent crude below $80 a barrel, Shearing says. In fact, it could ultimately help Russia. Shearing writes:
...history suggests that reforms to tackle the cause of the slowdown in trend growth are more likely to happen when oil revenues are low. Paradoxically, then, a larger fall in oil prices may actually be good news from the point of view of Russia's growth prospects over the longer term.
The Market Vectors Russia ETF has dropped 2.9% to $25.44 today.

Despite being struck-off, embattled lawyer Barry Hart was back at the Auckland High Court today - this time fighting to keep the last of his rural properties from being sold by the bank.
The ANZ Bank has sold all but one of Hart's rural properties to pay-off the lawyer's $30 million debt.
Lawyers for the bank are asking the court to order Hart and any livestock off the property. If the bid is successful, the 71-year-old will have 14 days to get out.
Hart's 46-year career in criminal law ended last month when the Lawyers and Conveyancers Disciplinary Tribunal found him guilty of three charges of misconduct and struck him off.
Today he sat next to his lawyer Monika Porner who told the court that the bank had not followed due process when it sold the farmland and lifestyle blocks in Waimauku, 25km north of downtown Auckland.
She also argued that a six-week marketing campaign by real estate company Bayleys was not long enough.
Hart himself told the court his sister had offered to buy the last of the properties for "more than the property's worth", but the bank had not responded to the offer.
"It's a big deal to be kicked out of your home, particularly when you're doing your best and when a family member is offering to buy it, which gives the bank security and which gives us something to look forward to."
In response, ANZ lawyer Laura O'Gorman said the bank had received a "significantly higher" offer for the property than the offer from Hart's sister. She said the sale was conditional on the property being vacated by Hart.
Ms O'Gorman said there were sensitivities about revealing the identity of the potential purchaser "because they're concerned about harassment".
Responding to criticism about the Bayleys' marketing campaign, Ms O'Gorman pointed to other cases before the court where less time had been taken by real estate companies to market properties. She also listed a series of publications where advertisements for Hart's properties had appeared.
She said Hart refused to allow Bayleys onto the properties to do appraisals, and did not supply information on them despite a representative saying that he would.
Ms O'Gorman said Bayleys was forced to gather its information using aerial photographs and from the roadside.
She told the court the bank had made every attempt to get the best possible price for the properties.
Associate Judge, Justice David Abbott has reserved his decision.
Hart was recently in the news after it was revealed his fleet of luxury cars, including an Aston Martin and a 2011 Ferrari California, had been seized by debt collectors and were put up for auction last month.

If you needed another reason not to break the law, here's one: Last week, the New Jersey Supreme Court ruled that expungements are no longer available for individuals with multiple convictions for a "single spree" of crimes. Expungement is the process of erasing a criminal conviction from a person's record. The way it works is, typically, after a first-time offender is convicted of a crime and successfully completes the sentence ordered by the court, they are made to wait a 5–10 years during which they must not commit any further crimes or offenses, and at the end of that period they can apply to the court for an order of expungement. The theory behind expungement is that it is available in limited circumstances to people who made just a single mistake, a single lapse in judgment, or Continue Reading
You know you can go to jail for stuff you post on Facebook, right?Posted in First Amendment, New Jersey, Social Media Law

Avvo Ruling Doesn't Create a Green Light for Anonymous DefamationPosted in Cyber-defamation, Defamation, First Amendment, Internet & Media Law
People are making much ado about this week's decision out of a Washington state appellate court surrounding a negative online review on the popular lawyer website Avvo.com. But it's really much ado about nothing. The Avvo decision didn't change the law; its chief holding is that people who post to the Internet anonymously can remain anonymous under protections granted by the First Amendment, that you cannot unmask the anonymous poster unless you show the court evidence to support the underlying defamation claim. The holding does not give a green light to Internet trolls everywhere to engage in malicious cyber-defamation campaigns at will.
Über Policy Updates Raises Privacy ConcernsPosted in Privacy Law
I'm a huge fan of Über — the mobile app that gives you instant access to a chauffeured Town Car, SUV, or eco-friendly hybrid vehicle, 24 hours a day, in over 300 cities worldwide. As an Internet & privacy law attorney, however, I've had to convince myself to look the other way regarding its privacy policy, which permits the company to collect massive amounts of data about its customers. I was able to do so because in my own personal experience I've always found the company to be very responsible — i.e. in every city I've used them (except Chicago) Continue Reading
Answers to 10 Common Questions About EmailPosted in Email, Internet & Media Law, Litigation & Appeals, Privacy Law
This is part two of a two-part post addressing ten of the most common questions new clients ask about email.
6. When is it not okay to delete emails?
On the other hand, if you suspect that a lawsuit could result over something that was discussed in an email, then you have an absolute duty to preserve the data. If you intentionally delete that email, in an attempt to "destroy the evidence," you are likely to wind up in big trouble. And this applies regardless of whether your last name is Petraeus, Cheney, or Clinton.
7. Some people say email isn't secure, that true?
Yes, it's true. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't use email. It just means that certain kinds of data, or sensitive subject matter should not be send using email (unless it's encrypted, of course). (This is just a very simplified, short answer to a very complicated issue, by the way.) Continue Reading
Answers to 10 Common Questions About EmailPosted in Email, Internet & Media Law, Privacy Law

In a lot of ways, it's like Dropbox, but far better, and infinitely more secure. And just like Dropbox, all we need to allow a new client access to our portal, is their email address….

First Amendment Doesn't Cover Jokes About CopsPosted in First Amendment, Internet & Media Law, New Jersey, Social Media Law
The First Amendment is like that unwritten rule about the things you're not supposed to discuss in a bar — politics and religion — because that's what it's really about. This is probably why the government isn't in the bar business. Because of the First Amendment, the government can't stop you from supporting the political candidate or issue of your choosing, and they can't tell you where to go to church, or even whether you should go to church at all. But the First Amendment only applies to the government — not your parent, your teacher or professor, and unless you work for them, the government isn't your employer either, which means that the First Amendment doesn't protect you from being grounded, sent to detention, or, for us grown folk, from getting fired for saying you hate your job, you're way overqualified and underpaid for the position, or even that your boss's new toupée looks goofy.
But what about if you do actually work for the government? Does that mean you have carte blanche, that you can say whatever you want? Continue Reading
Two Rules for Representing Yourself in Legal ProceedingsPosted in Litigation & Appeals, New Jersey
Everybody's probably heard the old adage, "He who acts as his own lawyer has a fool for a client," but apparently people either don't believe it, or they believe they're the exception to the rule. I say that because the percentage of "pro se" (i.e. self-represented) litigants continues to rise year after year. Why do people represent themselves in court? Generally there are two reasons: (1) you feel like you know the facts of your case better than anyone else, including the lawyer that you hired; or (2) you say you can't afford a lawyer. Okay, there may be a third reason, too—you're insane. Continue Reading
World Backup Day: Are YOU Prepared for a Total Data Loss or Breach?Posted in Internet & Media Law
Today, March 31, 2015, marks the fifth annual World Backup Day. Before you physically step back from wherever you're standing, that's not the kind of "backing up" that was intended by the founders of World Backup Day, who were simply a group of concerned Internet users, posting their thoughts and ideas about data security to the international Internet chalkboard Reddit. This backup is a noun, in this case meaning a second (or third, fourth, fifth, etc.) copy of all your digital files, which you store in a different location that the one where the files primarily live (i.e. you don't keep a backup of your computer on that same computer; it must be stored on another machine or disk drive, whether that be a tangible drive that's physically located in your home or office, or in the cloud).
Perhaps you've already stopped reading, because you thought to yourself, "This is ridiculous—in this day and age, who doesn't backup their data?" But simply having a backup plan in place isn't good enough anymore. To guard against the potential catastrophes caused by a total data loss, you also need to test your backup plan, to make sure it works the way it's supposed to. A recent survey conducted by a well-known IT company revealed that 71% of those surveyed (mostly businesses) have a backup plan in place, but despite having a plan, data loss continues to be a vexing issue. Don't just dismiss World Backup Day as something for geeks, or something that doesn't apply to you or your business because you own an external hard drive, and already have your files backed up to it at least daily or weekly. Even worse, don't think that World Backup Day doesn't concern you because you use Dropbox… Continue Reading
Do You Control Your Smart TV Using Voice Commands?Posted in Privacy Law
For the superstitious, and conspiracy theorists, an Orwellian revelation on this Friday the 13th of February. As reported last week by the Daily Beast, Samsung, the world's no. 1 manufacturer of HDTVs, is warning customers who use voice commands to control their smart TVs that if they speak "personal or other sensitive information, that information will be among the data captured and transmitted to a third party through your use of voice recognition." So, "What's the big deal," you ask? Essentially, Samsung has given notice that their smart TVs have the capability of capturing and transmitting every word that is spoken within range of the device. Although this is something many of us knew, or at least suspected, now it's out it in the open.
So be advised: If you're too lazy to pick up the remote, you may want to keep your conversation with the TV as direct and non-incriminating as possible. Don't talk about tax evasion, drug use. And definitely don't try out your Violet Crawley impression.

Co-hosts Andrea Lowell and Kevin Klein welcomed some moonshine makers, the owners of an oyster joint and a handful of sexy ladies this week at the Mini Mansion.
Missed out on all the sexiness of The Playboy Morning Show? Well, now you can get a weekly recap of what goes on behind studio doors right here on PLAYBOY.COM! The Playboy Morning Show is heard weekday mornings on SiriusXM Channel 102 from 7am-10am PST. Here's what happened this week in the MiniMansion …
We came back from our Columbus Day-off to find ourselves in some legal drama! For starters, we're not allowed to play Gretchen Rossi's "Magic Penis" song anymore (which is too bad – we enjoyed that Ambien-induced lullaby), and an organization called Boobs on the Move claims that OktoberBreast is copyrighted and we can't use it! We've been trying to get to the bottom of it all week, so in the meantime, please continue to email your pictures of boobs and beer to firstname.lastname@example.com or tweet them at us @PBMorningShow.
Tuesday morning Jonathan Ward stopped by…he's the CEO and lead designer of the ICON 4×4 line of trucks. If you haven't seen one of these BADASS vehicles, check out the FJ44 model in the October 2011 issue of Playboy. They're custom-made, and range in price from $140,000 – $195,000. Jonathan has even designed an ICON with a heated shower in the back! If you got some money to spare, download the brochure here and start designing!
We widened the doorways of the Mini Mansion Wednesday so MMA fighter and WWE heavyweight Dave Bautista – a.k.a BATISTA - could fit through them. He's A BIG GUY who used to be 100 pounds heavier when he was a bouncer in Washington D.C. years ago! Unreal! He told us about the time he pulled one of his signature moves the "Power Bomb" on Triple-H and wound up with the guy's nuts in his face. (Funny, that's one of Andrea's signature moves, too!) Dave has a new movie with Russell Crowe coming out next year called, The Man With the Iron Fists. It's on our must-see list.
Bryan Callen returned to the Mini Mansion Thursday after a much-too-lengthy absence. Since we last visited with him, he's gotten a couple of Hangover films under his belt, scored a major show on MTV, and can be seen in the movie Warrior, playing in theaters nationwide. Although secretly, Bryan admits that he wants to be a porn producer. So, Andrea showed him her boobs. Good times.
And members of the rock group Fountains Of Wayne dropped in Thursday to tell us about their latest album, Sky Full of Holes, and to help us give Playboy model Allison Sky a "boobtism." That's right, she has brand new DD boobs and guitarist Jody Porter christened them with holy (ok, unholy) water. We get the feeling this wasn't his first boobtism.
We ended our short week with Friday morning drinking Moonshine and eating oysters! Master Distiller Chuck Miller of the Original Moonshine joined us in studio with Sexy Moonshine Mixologist Heather Storm. Chuck told us how his Moonshine recipe goes all the way back to his Grandfather in the prohibition era when he used to smuggle Moonshine to senators and congressmen in Washington D.C. He even informed us that it's a fact women get horny on Moonshine! Turn on! So in order to prove Chuck right, Moonshine's Sexy Mixologist Heather mixed some AMAZING drinks that even Chuck's grandfather would be proud of.
The party didn't stop at the Moonshine. We went from getting our drink on to getting turned on as Rappahannock River Oysters owners Ryan and Travis Croxton came in the Mini Mansion with oysters in hand. Ryan and Travis are dedicateoysters being an aphrodisiac, we did the only thing we do best: bring in HOT girls to eat oysters to see just how turned on they would get! Beauties Tania and Karla enjoyed each oyster in order to test their horny levels with each swallow. The end results…well we're not sure!
