By Rams Nation's Mike Franke
Position by position:
* QB: If "The Terminator" can become governor of California, then Kurt Warner, another relentless offensive machine, should think about running in Missouri. Warner was a beyond-sharp 13-of-15 for 125 yards in one half of play, for a Warner-of-old QB rating of 123.6. He went 6-for-7, including 16 to Marshall Faulk to beat a London Fletcher blitz, on the first TD drive. He tied the game at 14 with a SWEET TD pass to Faulk. Warner dropped the ball right over the LB's shoulder and into Marshall's hands. Pretty vintage Kurt. Kurt and Marshall are clicking, Kurt read the field extremely well and threw accurately, with NO interceptions again tonight. Warner even scrambled twice for 18 yards, the second time faking Fletcher onto his butt. Warner's lone minus was that he held the ball much too long on two of his sacks. Funny how Warner hasn't wound up for a long pass yet this preseason, but as soon as Marc Bulger (9-15-139) gets in, it's bombs away, including a 66-yard TD to Kevin Curtis early in the 3rd, although that pass was well underthrown. Bulger hit Shaun McDonald for 22 on 3rd-and-13 on the Rams' FG drive, and came back in with 2:00 left to guide the Rams 50 yards to the Bills 18 before the offensive line fell to pieces for the final time. Kirk Farmer didn't get much of a chance to pass even though the running game wasn't getting anywhere behind him. But Warner's second turnover-free night should give fans great reason to feel confident.
* RB: A healthy Marshall Faulk is going to take this team a long way, kind of like tonight, which saw him tally 11 rushes for 43 yards and 7 catches for 60 more in only one half of play. He's the same player as ever; Warner's go-to guy, a patient runner and a big factor in TD drives. Faulk ran on the Rams' first four plays and showed he's ready for the workhorse role. Twice, including his 6-yard rushing TD, he went up the middle where the play was designed to go, then patiently bounced it outside to the right for a nice gain. He had a 16-yard catch and a 10-yard run leading up to that TD and scored a 2nd TD receiving. The NFL's best all-around weapon is getting warmed up for some strikes. Rough night for Arlen Harris, 18 rushes for 18 yards, behind almost no blocking. A key sequence of the game came in the third when the Rams couldn't score from the 1. Harris had two rushes for -1 down there, but again, no blocking. Brian Natkin got most of the work at fullback, with mixed results. He certainly doesn't blast anybody like James Hodgins did.
* WR: Beyond Faulk's seven catches, the Rams really spread the ball around. Two each for Torry Holt, Isaac Bruce and Shaun McDonald. Mike Furrey caught a clutch 15-yarder during the Rams' final drive. But the receiving star was again Kevin Curtis. For the second straight week, he turned a CB absolutely inside out en route to a long catch, this one a 66-yard TD in the 3rd. He left the game with reportedly a strained calf muscle, but Curtis runs routes so well he is clearly the #3 receiver and is going to give nickelbacks trouble all season long. Those who want to criticize Troy Edwards (3-18) for taking too long to get up after his second catch of the final drive should get the wind knocked out of them sometime. Edwards also drew an interference penalty in the end zone in the 3rd, and I wouldn't call him dead just yet in the last-WR-in race.
* Offensive line: Little did I realize that by halftime of this game I would be BEGGING the Rams to put John St. Clair back in at LT. Grant Williams was five kinds of awful out there, getting whipped by Aaron Schobel – Aaron Schobel? – repeatedly and getting his QB killed. Even St. Clair doesn't get flat out beaten as often as Williams did. What ever impressed the Rams so much about this guy? And if he's off because he's still injured, then why even play him? Andy McCollum had some rough moments, also nearly getting Warner killed once, but his play looks farther along. St. Clair played center all game. Warner bobbled a couple of snaps, but they can't have worked together much. The reshuffled line appeared discombobulated at times by CONSTANT Buffalo blitzing, although the first time Warner was sacked, the blitz was picked up pretty well. The second time, Kurt held the ball way too long, and the blitz wasn't picked up well. The third sack was all Williams. Good news, though, from the solid right side of the line, where Adam Timmerman was a dominating run-blocker. The second-string line was pathetic. They rarely opened any room for Harris to run at all. Travis Scott's lost-in-space blocking nearly led to a safety late in the 3rd, and Robert Haws got whipped twice for sacks, including the game-ending sack/fumble. And St. Clair committed a crucial illegal use of hands penalty to move that drive backward after it got to the Bills 18. But the starters look OK as long as they can come up with somebody to fill that LT position competently. Hmmm….
* Defensive line/LB: The defense did absolutely nothing but watch the Bills go up 14-0 the first two drives. There was no pass rush AT ALL, so Drew Bledsoe got all day to throw and picked apart the Rams' young secondary. Travis Henry broke off runs of 19 and 20 yards, although the second was called back by penalty. As usual, Jamie Duncan (starting for injured Robert Thomas) got tied up easily by just about any blocker and was not a defensive factor. The run didn't get stopped at all except for a good play by Grant Wistrom to stop Henry for -4 from the Rams' 4. Lovie Smith got caught blitzing in the first as WR Bobby Shaw beat Pisa Tinoisamoa for a TD. Pisa's fast, but that's probably still not a great matchup. Pisa left the game in the 2nd with a sprained left ankle. The defense rebounded somewhat in the 2nd. Tommy Polley picked off Bledsoe to end one drive, and the defense followed that with two more quick stops to get the Rams in the game. The pass rush got better, but no Ram registered a sack for the night. Kerry Collins is going to look awfully good (again) Week One if the pass rushers don't pick up their game. Jimmy, no, it's Teddy now, Kennedy, has pretty much drowned my high expectations for him. He got manhandled again and finished the game without a tackle. He badly overran Joe Burns' winning TD run at the point of contact. So I'll crank my expectations way back for now and hope he bounces back like the defense did in the 2nd quarter.
* Secondary: Unlike last week, a far-from-promising performance from the secondary tonight. Eric Moulds beat Travis Fisher over and over, including a 16-yard TD to put the Bills up 14-0. He gave the Rams' lead CB a ton of trouble, even getting physical with him successfully. Moulds caught 9 for 115 in under three quarters, my God, what will T.O. do to Fisher, who also blew a good half a dozen tackles? Jerametrius Butler fared better against Josh Reed, but blew a couple of tackles himself. Shane Walton was pressed into action after Kim Herring broke his left forearm on the opening kickoff, and had a very rough evening, also blowing a mess of tackles. He should have broken up an inexcusable 28-yard completion to Reed that set up an end-of-first half FG attempt (missed). DeJuan Groce didn't impress at all, getting beaten a lot and especially abused by a #14-wearing scrub WR for Buffalo's 3rd TD. Shades of Taje Allen at the end of the Detroit game in '99. Nick Sorenson was the only DB who had a decent night, intercepting a tipped pass late in the game. He's way ahead of Steve Bellesari, who had an INT, but foolishly lateralled it badly to Walton. Lucky they didn't lose the ball. Bellesari's special teams play was poor to boot, so he could be battling with Walton for a roster spot. Some battle, judging from their terrible tackling on Burns' TD run. NFL-quality tackling needs to be a focus for this secondary in coming days. Lucky thing the Rams have a 35 in the hole.
* Special teams: Special teams loses the game for the second time this August, as the Bills had punt returns of 27, 37 and 34 yards in the second half. I'll take heart that there were a lot of scrubs out there that won't be around on Monday. And in fact, Courtland Bullard WHACKED the returner at the end of the 27-yard return to get the Rams the ball back. The next play was Curtis' TD. Bullard and Scott Shanle played well on STs; write Shanle's name down on the roster sheet in ink. The kickers were disappointing. Owen Pochmann did all the kicking and once again was only ordinary on kickoffs. Sean Landeta looked like Ray Guy last week; this week he just looked like an older version of Mitch Berger, putting two punts into the end zone and plonking a couple of 34-yarders. Harris had 18- and 27-yard punt returns in the 2nd quarter.
* Coaching/discipline: I guess we can count Mike Martz among those goofball coaches who go all-out to win preseason games. How else to explain putting Marc Bulger back into the game with 2:00 left, after Bills coach Gregg Williams put Alex Van Pelt back into the game to get his team the lead? If Martz was that intent on winning the game, he should have had Farmer throw more earlier in the 4th, instead of dooming Harris to a series of unsuccessful rushes. That was an unnecessary risk to take with Bulger. Williams really showed his stripes as a Jeff Fisher disciple, with the Van Pelt move and blitzing the Rams on damn near every play. They've faced each other once, and I'm guessing Martz and Williams already don't like one another. Lovie Smith needs to get in his defense's face a bit; the starters really seemed to take the night off. There was a lot of terrible tackling, and the Bills beat a rare Lovie blitz for their first TD. The schedule, three games in 10 days, certainly doesn't help, but the defense's execution is really dropping off.
* Waiver bait: The Rams web site has 83 players on the current roster, counting Orlando Pace. The player limit is 65 by Tuesday, with NFL Europe exemptions for James Broyles, Todd Howard and Robbie Robinson. So the minimum that can be voted off Rams Island is 15: WRs Dedrick Dewalt, Desmond Kitchings, Steve Battle, Michael Coleman (leaving 7 WRs), QB Greg Zolman, DE Roderick Stephen, LB Jason McWilliams, RTs Robert Haws, Curry Dawson and Matt Anderle, C John Romero, FBs Maurice Rodriguez and Chad Kuhns, K Owen Pochmann and RB Leon Johnson are my nominees.
* Upon further review: The crew led by the verbose Ron Winter did well until they completely BLEW an OBVIOUS block in the back that set up Buffalo's 37-yard punt return on the 4th. I'll still give them a pretty-good grade. Excellent call on Polley's fumble after the first INT, and the pass interference calls were good. Nate Clements hammered Torry on the shoulder well before the ball got there on the call in the 1st.
* Cheers?: Congratulations to two-bit UHF station WRBU for the WORST Rams preseason broadcast EVER, as the ENTIRE first quarter was the victim of technical difficulties, suffering from what looked like a bad horizontal-hold problem. Jackie Slater's stupid telestrator sure worked, though. You know, Jackie, if you circle EVERYTHING, people are going to stop paying attention. Over on radio, Curtis' TD occurred during a commercial break. So no matter where you went, including the Internet, where a game broadcast was harder to find than certain members of the Hussein family, live coverage of tonight's game was the pits.
* Who's next?: YOUR Governor's Cup goes back on the line Thursday night when Dick Vermeil brings the Chiefs to town. The Ram offense should have the opportunity to keep humming against a dreadful K.C. defense that I just don't see as much improved over last year. But that's moot if the left side of the Ram offensive line can't get settled. That's something to focus on Thursday, as well as the starting defensive line, which seems to have taken a couple of weeks off after a super outing in Oakland. The young, banged-up secondary is sure to be tested by Trent Green and company, so it's time to step up. Key roster battles appear to be #6 WR, #3/4 DE, fullback and safety. There'll be a lot to watch in what should be a good offensive shootout like tonight's. Some players will have their dreams dashed, some players' dreams will come true, and the fans will start dreaming about the start of the regular season and * real * games.


text: So I was at the range with a buddy of mine, shooting his new CW9. I loved how the gun shot, my only problem is its a tad small for my hands. At my local gun shop, they have a TP45, which fit my hand much better. My question is, since they only have one round difference in the magazine, should I just pick up the TP45, or should I order the TP9? It wont be for carry, just home/range use. I have not shot a kahr .45, but I loved the 9mm.

I don't have the link. Someone mentioned it on here yesterday. Hopefully a rumor is all it is
I don't have the link. Someone mentioned it on here yesterday. Hopefully a rumor is all it is
I love Cruz but if he wants too much money, he has to understand that other good receivers helped him get his extra yards. If you look at all of the plays or most of them when the offense pass, look at how many defenders be around Cruz. Less defenders and he has a lot of room to move about. I have seen a lot of receivers in my time catch the ball then try to run after the catch. There be too many defenders around him and he can't get around them. That is experience you keep in your head especially when it happens majority of the time and happened to even the best players. More talented receivers we have, and Eli has more choices.
Why would I lie about that? It wasn't a thread, it was a comment someone made on one of the 25 conversations started about Cruz. Like I said, hopefully it's just a rumor. I wasn't trying to lend any credibility to what I read, I was merely stating that I hope what I read wasn't true
Im confused.
Now I agree that $10 million dollars would be a hefty price to pay and think the Giants may not even entertain something that high. But, Cruz has become an integral part of the team and deserves some compensation.
Yup. Cut Diehl and Webster. Save about 13-14 mil and help create contracts. And resign who else we need.(
2017 Mock Draft
1st: Forrest Lamp, OG Western Kentucky
2nd: Caleb Brantley, DT Florida
3rd: Gerald Everett, TE South Alabama
4th: Dont'a Foreman, RB Texas
5th: Damontae Kazee, CB San Diego State
6th: KD Cannon, WR Baylor
7th: Jalen Reeves-Maybin, LB Tennessee
No way they tie up that much cap space for 2 WRs. They clearly have targeted Nicks and will tender Cruz who will probably start to make some noise in the media after being underpaid for 3 years. Question is whether a team like Miami will Cruz his money and surrender a #1. Mara publicly talking about Cruz was for the purpose of preparing the fan base for his eventual departure.

And so was our first day on the famed Danube River Cycle Path. Despite explicit written instructions (I like to call them "suggestions"), we still managed to take a wrong turn early on. I of course, once again placed my faith in The Garminator who successfully re-trained "the machine" as Peter called it to bring us to our final destination. I highly recommend riding w/ a rocket scientist.
In Sigmaringen, we toured the Hohenzollern Castle. The castle was built around 1000 AD and the Hohenzollern family lived there until 1944 when the Nazis invaded, removed the family and set up HQ for the Vichy government of France (French collaborators in the Third Reich)
So today, we had a second chance to find our way on the Danube path, which we did successfully for 65 miles to reach Ulm, birthplace of Albert Einstein and home to the tallest church steeple in the world. We have a rest day and a chance to explore the town.
So we have 3 people in our group from the Southern Hemisphere.
Cat (short for Catherina) is one of our tour organizers. She makes her home in Johannesburg, South Africa where she was a journalist before taking on Adventure Cycling. She has led 2 tours from Cairo to Capetown as well as the Silk Route from Shanghai to Istanbul. Both tours are 4 months long with much harsher conditions than our current tour so she not only has to have great organizational skills but must be able to deal with emergencies and a group of varied personalities for an extended period of time. She seems to enjoy her work - she's serious about business but laughs easily and has a million dollar smile.
He'll go all the way to Istanbul.
Frosty hails from the Gold Coast of Australia where the ocean is his life source. He can spin a yarn in that thick accent, full of Aussie colloquialisms and have 25 people listening intently, even though he hates the spotlight. He previously owned a dive shop and ran an adventure club (The Bent Boys) through which he took people all over the world to cycle, backpack, hang glide, ski and scuba dive. He currently works w/ kids in Australia on training them for Ironman competitions - not the triathlon but a national competition that incorporates paddling, swimming, running and surf-skiing. He showed up with a Bike Friday and has been pedaling it like a madman!!! He is definitely one of the stronger cyclists!!
I am really enjoying Germany. It is a beautiful, very clean country and the people have been friendly and helpful. And the roads are fabulous as are the plentiful bike paths. My photography skills are suboptimal but at least I've been able to capture some memories...

PYONGYANG, May 20 (Xinhua) -- All detained Chinese fishermen and their vessels had been freed, the foreign ministry of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) said Sunday.
Counsellor Jiang Yaxian with the Chinese embassy to Pyongyang told Xinhua that the DPRK foreign ministry had notified the embassy of the latest development.
The vessels and the crews have been on their way back home, Jiang said.
Jiang said Friday that the detained Chinese fishing crews were in "sound health condition with sufficient food and healthcare," and that "part of the detained vessels and crews have already been back to China."
Ambassador Liu Hongcai and other Chinese diplomats have been working actively on the detention of the Chinese fishermen along with their vessels "through negotiation and close contact."
On Thursday, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei said China had been staying in close communication with the DPRK through relevant channels to push for a proper resolution to the issue at an early date.
China demanded the DPRK ensure the safety and legitimate rights and interests of the Chinese fishermen, he said at a daily news briefing.
It was reported that the fishing boats and their crews were held in custody by the DPRK on May 8.

One Step Forward for Mental Health and One Step Back
Progress in mental illness is slow as victories are often offset by large failures as was demonstrated by recent events in Hamilton, ON. It was almost a year ago that I wrote about a group of eight young women with various mental illnesses who were being blocked by the City of Hamilton from moving into a new group home in a different neighbourhood from the one they currently live in.
The residence, Charlton Hall, was originally founded in 1919 by the Big Sister Association and is housed in a beautiful old house just west of Hamilton downtown. The young women it treats are struggling with a variety of problems such as eating disorders and self-harm. For some reason, the beautiful old mansion that housed them and is owned by the city was allowed to deteriorate to the point where it required over a million dollars in repairs. The only alternative was for them to move to a new building but that was opposed by the city and by the residents of the area they wanted to move to.
The matter was taken to the Ontario Municipal Board and at the end of August, the OMB decided in favour of the group home and are allowing the teenage girls to move into the new group home against the objection of Hamilton City Council. After blocking the move for well over a year, the city has decided to accept the decision and not appeal.
But, despite that victory, the shooting death by police of a man on leave from the psychiatric wing of St Joseph's Hospital remains shrouded in mystery and refusals to talk.
Steve Mesic was a voluntary patient in the psychiatric unit at St. Joseph's Healthcare for a few days when he signed himself out on the morning of June 7 to go for a walk. Police were called because of reports that a man, identified as Steve Mesic, was seen walking in traffic of the busy Lincoln Alexander Parkway. Officers who arrived escorted him off the road and onto a wooded berm beside the highway. This wooded area actually bordered his home.
Witnesses soon heard shouting and then anywhere from between three to eight gunshots and Mr. Mesic was dead. And, as is the case with police shootings, the provincial Special Investigations Unit is looking into the matter but no one is talking about what happened. Mr. Mesic left behind a very supportive family, friends and a pregnant fiance all of whom are devastated by his death and upset at the lack of transparency from city officials.
The shooting of Sammy Yatim in Toronto received considerable publicity largely in part to the video taping of the shooting. There was a very fast resolution in that the officer was quickly charged with second degree murder. That shooting was on July 27 and the officer was charged on August 19. But, in the Mesic death that occurred on June 7, no information has been released and the SIU continues to investigate. According to Monica Hudon, the communications co-ordinator for the SIU, the Mesic investigation is still ongoing and is taking longer that the Yatim case because there is no video. The SIU has gathered forensic evidence in the Mesic case, she said, that needs to be evaluated and that takes time.
But, another interesting comparison with Yatim is that Toronto Police Chief Bill Blair has publicly spoken on the case and with the family. The Hamilton chief, Glenn De Caire, has neither met with the Mesic family nor even offered his condolences. Hamilton mayor, Bob Bratina who chairs the police board, has also made no comments whatsoever or offered his condolences.
And, according to the Hamilton Spectator, Chief De Caire refuses to participate in the review of police procedure to be conducted by the Ombudsman, Andre Marin. De Caire is quoted as saying that he will cooperate with Marin only if the government tells him to. The government, however, will not do that according to Craig MacBride, press secretary for Minister Madeleine Meilleur. Meanwhile, dozens of motorcyclists and cars took part in a memorial ride for Steve on Friday 13.
The Hamilton Police Board will be meeting on September 16 and a group of family members who have lost loved ones shot by police will be attending. Sharon Dorr, Steve's fiancée, will be at the meeting although she is shortly expecting to deliver their child. As reported in the Spectator, she said "I want to send a message to Chief De Caire that his attitude in dealing with me and the public needs to change. The police need to give some kind of recognition. They owe it to me and Steve and his family."
And they owe an explanation to the citizens of Hamilton.

so im gonna scrape about 1/2-3/4 of an acre this spring to plant something for my bees. i want to have 5 hives by the end of the season and a couple nucs. when reading about this topic i heard a lot of people suggesting to plant yellow sweet clover. but when i looked into it i found that it is an obligate biennial and an invasive species, so as an ecologist i simply cannot plant that plus it would be 2015 before it flowered. so i went back to my original idea which was to plant canada goldenrod (Solidago canadensis) which is native in these parts, grows really well here too, and is the source for our largest annual honey flow as well. but seeds are about $200 per pound!!! that pound probably wont come close to planting the proposed plot.
does anyone know where i can find cheaper canada goldenrod? or know of another native plant that is easy to grow, cheap, and is a good source for honey production?

Lyrics no
Now that the madness of Christmas is over its time to get serious. Acquired P&D and The Lore of Running for Christmas for a bit of light reading between now and Easter.
Evening all.
Much alcohol consumed, many calories devoured, all waist bands have shrunk.
Following the DOMS that I got as a Christmas present for not running on a regular basis, I scaled back my ambitions. The Boxing Day 20, which was my usual penury got replaced by the Tri Club Boxing Day Bimble. It was very pleasant, only 9.5 miles, and at nothing more than 9m/m. This was the first time that I'd been out with them and there was the classic comment that I ran better than I swam. That's not hard. Even as rough as I am, 9m/m is the slowest I've been for ages.
Today, assembled the new Chrissy Pressie, and did 45 minutes on the turbo-torture-trainer. I have also taken both of the children's broken DVD players and made one that works. A feature film is a good length training session.

The Survivors of the Chancellor HTML version
An Attempt At Mutiny
DECEMBER 2 and 3. -- For four hours we have succeeded in keeping the water in the
hold to one level; now, however, it is very evident that the time cannot be far distant
when the pumps will be quite unequal to their task.
Yesterday Curtis, who does not allow himself a minute's rest, made a personal inspection
of the hold. I, with the boatswain and carpenter, accompanied him. After dislodg- ing
some of the bales of cotton we could hear a splashing, or rather gurgling sound; but
whether the water was enter- ing at the original aperture, or whether it found its way in
through a general dislocation of the seams, we were unable to discover. But, whichever
might be the case, Curtis de- termined to try a plan which, by cutting off communication
between the interior and exterior of the vessel, might, if only for a few hours, render her
hull more water-tight. For this purpose he had some strong, well tarred sails drawn
upward by ropes from below the keel, as high as the previous leak- ing place, and then
fastened closely and securely to the side of the hull. The scheme was dubious, and the
operation difficult, but for a time it was effectual, and at the close of the day the level of
the water had actually been reduced by several inches. The diminution was small enough,
but the consciousness that more water was escaping through the scupper-holes than was
finding its way into the hold gave us fresh courage to persevere with our work.
The night was dark, but the captain carried all the sail he could, eager to take every
possible advantage of the wind, which was freshening considerably. If he could have
sighted a ship he would have made signals of distress, and would not have hesitated to
transfer the passengers, and even have allowed the crew to follow, if they were ready to
forsake him; for himself his mind was made up -- he should remain on board the
Chancellor until she foundered beneath his feet. No sail, however, hove in sight;
consequently escape by such means was out of our power.
During the night the canvas covering yielded to the pres- sure of the waves, and this
morning, after taking the sound- ing, the boatswain could not suppress an oath when he
an- nounced, "Six feet of water in the hold!"
The ship, then, was filling once again, and already had sunk considerably below her
previous water-line. With aching arms and bleeding hands we worked harder than ever at
the pumps, and Curtis makes those who are not pumping form a line and pass buckets,
with all the speed they can, from hand to hand.
But all in vain! At half-past eight more water is re- ported in the hold, and some of the
sailors, overcome by de- spair, refuse to work one minute longer.
The first to abandon his post was Owen, a man whom I have mentioned before as
exhibiting something of a mu- tinous spirit. He is about forty years of age, and altogether
unprepossessing in appearance; his face is bare, with the exception of a reddish beard,
which terminates in a point; his forehead is furrowed with sinister looking wrinkles, his

One of the great concerns of our Founding Fathers was a large standing army on American soil. James Madison spoke for all of America's founders when he said, "A standing military force, with an overgrown Executive will not long be safe companions to liberty." I wonder what Madison and the rest of our founders would have to say about the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
John Whitehead, the president of The Rutherford Institute, recently wrote a trenchant summary of the DHS. He began by saying, "If the United States is a police state, then the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is its national police force, with all the brutality, ineptitude and corruption such a role implies. In fact, although the DHS' governmental bureaucracy may at times appear to be inept and bungling, it is ruthlessly efficient when it comes to building what the Founders feared most–a standing army on American soil."
Whitehead observes that the DHS employs over 240,000 full time workers and has an annual budget of $61 billion. Sub-agencies of the DHS include the Coast Guard, Customs and Border Protection, Secret Service, Transportation Security Administration (TSA), and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
Whitehead states, "In the 12 years since it was established to 'prevent terrorist attacks within the United States,' the DHS has grown from a post-9/11 knee-jerk reaction to a leviathan with tentacles in every aspect of American life. With good reason, a bipartisan bill to provide greater oversight and accountability into the DHS' purchasing process has been making its way through Congress.
"A better plan would be to abolish the DHS altogether. In making the case for shutting down the de facto national police agency, analyst Charles Kenny offers the following six reasons: one, the agency lacks leadership; two, terrorism is far less of a threat than it is made out to be; three, the FBI has actually stopped more alleged terrorist attacks than DHS; four, the agency wastes exorbitant amounts of money with little to show for it; five, 'An overweight DHS gets a free pass to infringe civil liberties without a shred of economic justification'; and six, the agency is just plain bloated."
In addition to Kenny's reasons for shutting down the DHS, Whitehead adds the following indictments:
"Militarizing police and SWAT teams. The DHS routinely hands out six-figure grants to enable local municipalities to purchase military-style vehicles, as well as a veritable war chest of weaponry, ranging from tactical vests, bomb-disarming robots, assault weapons and combat uniforms. This rise in military equipment purchases funded by the DHS has, according to analysts Andrew Becker and G.W. Schulz, 'paralleled an apparent increase in local SWAT teams.' The end result? An explosive growth in the use of SWAT teams for otherwise routine police matters, an increased tendency on the part of police to shoot first and ask questions later, and an overall mindset within police forces that they are at war–and the citizenry are the enemy combatants.
"Stockpiling ammunition. DHS, along with other government agencies, has been stockpiling an alarming amount of ammunition in recent years, which only adds to the discomfort of those already leery of the government. As of 2013, DHS had 260 million rounds of ammo in stock, which averages out to between 1,300 to 1,600 rounds per officer. The US Army, in contrast, has roughly 350 rounds per soldier. DHS has since requisitioned more than 1.6 billion rounds of ammo, 'enough,' concludes Forbes magazine, 'to sustain a hot war for 20+ years.'

Surf war still looms large

Longboard memories ... Bernard "Midget" Farrelly surfs at Manly, where he won the first official world title in 1964. Photo: Dallas Kilponen
One of Australia's longest sporting feuds nearly wiped out celebrations to mark the anniversary of the first official world surfing championship.
In a simpler time, more than 65,000 people - some in suits and ties - watched Bernard "Midget" Farrelly defeat the cream of California's surfers on small waves north of the Corso at Manly on May 17, 1964.
But Farrelly refused to attend a celebration 40 years later after he learned that his great rival Robert "Nat" Young had accepted an invitation to attend.
Garry Birdsall, a famed Cronulla surfer from the early 1960s, had to recontact scores of old surfers to cancel the party.
"When Midget pulled out I was gutted," Birdsall said. "He was happy to attend when I spoke to him in early April. Then I thought Nat should be invited because he was there competing as a junior ... and told Midget. He then emailed me saying he wouldn't be available."
However, the Manly Malibu Board Club refused to let the occasion pass unheralded.
It has organised a cocktail party tonight at the Manly Pacific Hotel for many of the surfers involved in the 1964 event as part of the 17th annual Snowy McAlister Winter Longboard Festival. Organisers cruelly expect aged surfers and their sore heads and backs to turn up at 8am tomorrow for the first of the heats.
Farrelly will be guest of honour at the party. Young will not show.
"I had family commitments that I couldn't change. I was stoked to come to the May celebration but it didn't happen," Young said.
Farrelly was not shedding any tears: "I'd rather have Nat as an enemy than a friend."
His 1964 victory gave repressed teenagers a glimpse of the freedom of beach culture and changed surfboard riding from a minority sport to a lifestyle.
But Farrelly's win was soured by a judging controversy involving the American surfer Joey Cabell.
Nat Young later picked up on Cabell's surfing style and won the 1966 world championship in California. One of the 1964 judges, John Witzig, later a surf magazine journalist, then helped turn Young into a rebel icon whose image overpowered Farrelly's continuing competitive achievements. And so the feud began.
Although the Australian women's world champion in 1964, Phyllis O'Donell, will be joined by the second placegetter, American Linda Benson, at tonight's celebration, no American men are coming.

Live updates from Game 4 between Sri Lanka and New Zealand at Cardiff
With their morale sky high after a 2-1 series win over England, New Zealand would look to carry their good form into the Champions Trophy when they clash with Sri Lanka in a Group A match here on Sunday.
Sri Lanka have an overwhelming record of winning 10 of their last 11 ODI matches and six in a row against the Kiwis but the Black Caps would back themselves to reverse the trend, particularly when their batsmen are in superb touch.
Opener Martin Guptill smashed two consecutive hundreds against England, Ross Taylor hit half-centuries in all the three matches of the series and skipper Brendon McCullum on his day can demolish any attack. So, much of the Kiwis' fortunes would depended on how their top-order performs.

How the AgustaWestland helicopter deal was finalised
Guido Ralph Haschke reportedly offered bribe to the then Air Chief Marshal Tyagi through his cousins and got him to change the terms of the tenders.
New Delhi: The investigations by Italian police have revealed that Finmeccanica bagged the deal to supply 12 AgustaWestland helicopters to the Indian government through Guido Ralph Haschke. According to the 64-page chargesheet, Finmeccanica CEO Giuseppe Orsi appointed Haschke to make sure that requirements were tweaked in favour of his company.
Haschke came in contact with former Indian Air Force (IAF) Chief Air Chief Marshal SP Tyagi's relatives - Juli, Dosca and Sandeep - with the help of his business partner Carlo Gerosa. According to the reports the bribe has given to the former Air Marshal SP Tyagi through his cousins' for the AgustaWestland helicopter deal. However, the amount of the bribe is not yet known. Tyagi was the IAF chief between 2004 and 2007 and the bribe was offered to him during this period.
Haschke came to know through the Tyagi brothers - Juli, Dosca and Sandeep - that the Indian government was planning to buy choppers. He assured Orsi and other company officials that he could swing the deal in their favour. Haschke reportedly offered bribe to the then Air Chief Marshal Tyagi through his cousins and got him to change the terms of the tenders.
According to the report the requirement that the bidding helicopters should be able to fly at a height of 18,000 feet was reduced to 15,000 feet so that AgustaWestland helicopter could become eligible. Bribe was also allegedly paid to add a clause of test flights which enabled AgustaWestland to take part in the tender with a third engine.
The deal with AgustaWestland was finally signed on February 8, 2010 for the supply of 12 helicopters. It has been alleged that Rs 370 crore was paid as bribe in the deal which is worth Rs 3546 crore out of which almost Rs 200 crore was paid as bribe in Italy and India through a defence middleman Christian Michael, who was in London.

Day After Christmas Shopping Deals Draw Large Crowds
SANTA BARBARA COUNTY, Calif. - Christmas may be over but the holiday shopping season is not over just yet.
Up and down the coast, thousands of shoppers hit the mall again on Thursday, but this time they weren't buying gifts for other people. Instead, they were returning the gifts they didn't want and using the gift cards they received on Christmas. There was one major benefit for going shopping on the day after Christmas -- some massive post-Christmas deals.
"I was going to return my Lego set because I already had the same thing, and I returned it for a car. It is much better because I get both the things that I wanted," said Bobby Rodgers.
Retailers are hoping to snag you once you are in the store using the gift cards you received as gifts.
"We decided to go shopping because we got a gift card to H&M," said Tanielle Wolin.
"I am out making the most of all the gift cards that I got, so I am shopping and having a me day," said Janet Carroll.
There are big markdowns after Christmas this year because the pre-Christmas sales were weaker than expected. Sales this holiday season were down more than 3 percent compared to last year. Stores are now hoping people will open their wallets for those wish-list items Santa didn't leave under the tree this year.
"I am shopping for myself, because I didn't get many Christmas gifts from my family. They are back in Virginia. So I am getting back to my roots, got some boot-cut jeans and some flannel shirts," said Jonathan Rufrano.
The best after-Christmas deals are on clothes and several stores are offering 75 percent off every discounted item. Some stores are even offering 30 to 50 percent off every item in the store.
"If I wouldn't have had the special deals that were going on today. I would have spent about $175 but with the discounts that they have today, I saved over $125 so I spent just over $50 on some merchandise today. I saved more than I spent so it was a great deal." said Abbie Olson.
While some people shop til they drop after the holidays, others are still waiting for gifts they ordered online. Bad weather and overloaded systems kept UPS and FedEx from delivering thousands of gifts in time for Christmas.
"My daughters, I ordered some stuff from Kay Jewelers, it was supposed to be shipped overnight on the 22nd, but I just got one piece today (the day after Christmas), which I wasn't really happy about it," said Terri Melody.
UPS and FedEx are apologizing for the thousands of gifts that did not make it in time for Christmas. They said that most of the packages should be delivered by Thursday night.

Five Americans Who Lived and Left America a Better Place for All
Losses sometimes mount up.
In the past few days, we've lost a great American actress, who was, with her husband, also high in the list of eminent Civil Rights leaders, a radio deejay who defied the odds and the meaning of pop and rock popularity, a football coach who became an icon by winning four Super Bowls in Pittsburgh, a much beloved baseball star who spent his entire career in one city, and a jazz singer who never became a huge star but had an unforgettable voice.
So, we pay tribute to Ruby Dee, to Casey Kasem, to Chuck Knoll, to Tony Gwynn and to "Little" Jimmy Scott.
Ruby Dee was an indomitably brilliant actress in television, in movies and most especially on the American stage. Yet, even now, it is almost impossible to separate her from her late husband Ossie Davis, to whom she was married for 57 years, until his death in 2005. They were not only an enduring married couple, but also partners in their artistic, performing arts, in all sorts of venues, live and on film, but also in their highly visible participation in the civil rights movement. They were, if not joined at the hips, passionately united, heart, soul and mind.
They were also two unique sorts of performers. In this, Ruby Dee, who died at the age of 91 last week, was a slight head above her husband. Dee left an indelible impression, no matter what she did, she had the power as an actress to move the heart, disturb the memory and knock you around a bit in her presence on stage.
She was in "A Raisin in the Sun" on Broadway and in the movie version opposite Sidney Poitier. She played Denzel Washington's mother in "American Gangster," for which she was nominated for a Best Supporting Actress Oscar. She bowled over Broadway in her performance as Lea in the brilliant South African playwright Athol Fugar's play, "Bozeman and Lea," about a couple ostracized in Apartheid South Africa. She and Davis appeared together often most notably in "Purlie Victorious," which Davis wrote and two films directed by Spike Lee, "Do The Right Thing" and "Jungle Fever." They also partnered up even more notably and with courage by forging friendships with Martin Luther King, Jr., and Malcolm X . Dee emceed the 1963 March on Washington at which King gave his "I Have a Dream" speech.
They took risks together, risks that could have harmed their careers, including standing up for Ethel and Julius Rosenberg, the convicted spies who were executed in the 1950s.
But perhaps their most enduring work and partnership came as two people who loved each other with great passion, shared their passions for the work and were completely intertwined in matters of justice. According to a Washington Post profile by Will Haygood, she once gave him a note that said, "Dear Ossie, When I think of you let there silence and no writing at all. Ruby."
This writer had the good fortune to interview them as a couple on the telephone. They were straight forward, forthright, and as best I can recall, neither interrupted the other. We saw her in "The Glass Menagerie" at Arena Stage in 1989. While the production had its problems, she was not one of them. She mesmerized. Still.
If you were a commuter, if you rode around in a car, if you like to make a connection with the voices you heard over the car radio in the 1960s and onward through the 1970s and beyond to close to now, and if you liked rock and roll and the softer edges of pop music that would eventually lead you to a karaoke bar, you'd recognize the voice of Casey Kasem pretty much forever.
Kasem, who popularized a show called "America's Top 40" (syndicated nationwide) over decades, passed away this weekend. His voice had already been lost from the airwaves and at 83, he had been suffering from a debilitating form of dementia. Yet, if his voice is still, it's still remembered. He would single out songs and play them for individual listeners, a sometime sentimental ploy that proved to be highly effective. It was personalizing music in a way that shock jocks hardly ever managed. You can have fun with people that make you go deaf, but it's hard to love them. His was an enduring voice, even as radio stations were splintering into genre choices—from jazz, to pop rock, to country, to alt, and every other taste. His top 40s show was consistently middle brow which is to say it was popular with just about everybody but the very edges, the very high brow.
It's hard to argue with a guy who would without fail tell you: "Keep your feet on the ground, and keep reaching for the stars."
Chuck Noll looked like a pro football coach. He had a burly build and a strong open face. He always looked like he was trying either to choke down a smile or a scowl during a game.
Career-wise, the man had a lot to smile about: he was the first NFL coach to win four Super Bowl titles, with Pittsburgh Steeler teams that played really stifling defense and were quarterbacked by Terry Bradshaw. Their biggest rivals in the AFC were the Oakland Raiders, owned by the Grinch-like Al Davis and sometimes coached by him. Watching those two teams go at in the 1970s was a bruising experience, especially if you happened to be standing on the sidelines—Mean Joe Green and the Pittsburgh Steelers would usually, but not always, prevail over Big Ben Davidson, George Blanda and others.
Noll won the old fashioned way. He didn't trade away draft choices. He kept them and nurtured them. He had never coached an NFL team before he got the Steeler job, and he finished 1-13 his first year. He finished on top, in life and in football.
Tony Gwynn died this week of cancer at the young age of 54. He lived a baseball life, he became a Hall of Famer, and he stayed in one town as a baseball player all his life. That town was San Diego, and you just don't see that happening much any more.
But look at those stats from a guy whom his peers described as a happy guy, a good man and a brilliant baseball player, roaming right field for the San Diego Padres. They called him "Mr. Padre," and here's what he did: he played in two World Series, hit a bunch of singles, batted .338 lifetime, had 3,184 hits and eight National League batting titles. In 1997, he was inducted in the hall of fame with Cal Ripken, Jr., who spent his whole career in Baltimore. He was in a class all his own.
If you've never heard of Jimmie Scott or heard him at all, it's still not too late. He's another reason why they created YouTube.
Scott, who died at the age of 88, has described as "star-crossed," "under-rated," "hard-luck" and so on, all of which is true, since he was not a huge star in the crowded firmament of jazz and pop and great song vocalists.
Given all that, he sure shone and shines bright: this thin, frail-looking guy with a high and tremulous voice who sang with the greats, including Lionel Hampton, who recorded a memorable album called "Falling in Love Is Wonderful" and had a hit with "Everybody's Somebody's Fool," which could just about slam-dunk you with emotion and feeling.
Check out him out on YouTube. Listen to him. "Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child." Try "Nothing Compares to You." That's "Little Jimmy Scott." See if he just doesn't break your heart.

Houston Wedding In September
"Yum. The best pizza in Houston."
Sean and Jaclyn's Wedding
"Location of the Rehearsal Dinner. Wed August 6th at 7pm."
Sean and Jaclyn's Wedding
"We had our rehearsal dinner here. It was laid back and fun. In fact, we couldn't believe how well it went off, cause we really put little planning into it. We called ahead to reserve the room, and called the day before to confirm. They had everything set up very nicely with our own waitstaff. There were a few other tables in the corner of our room, but it just made us seem like movie stars with a fan club. We called ahead and ordered pizza cause they take a while to bake. Just get a variety. Guests could order apps or salads from the menu and few did. If I had more energy I might have reprinted their menu with just those items in cute wedding paper - but I didn't. Everyone got drinks like tea or coke, and few pitchers of beers went 'round. They turned the sports off while we were there, but right at the end a few folks requested it from that table, and the complied happily. I can't rave enough about it. I don't know how many people think pizza for a rehearsal dinner. We wanted something very Houston, Houston only, and this budget friendly. In fact it was friendlier that we planned. It think it was less than $15/pp and that's after tax, tips, drinks."

Internet connection
In 2011, 81% of homes in Epping had a broadband internet connection.
A fast Internet Connection is increasingly required for accessing essential information and undertaking domestic and non-domestic business. Households with dial-up or no internet service are being left behind in the digital divide as both government and the private sector are increasingly conducting their business, or aspects of it, on-line.
Internet connectivity in Epping can be affected by availability of connection, Education, Household Income and Age Structure.
Derived from the Census question:
'Can the Internet be accessed at this dwelling?'
Source: Australian Bureau of Statistics, Census of Population and Housing (opens a new window) 2006 and 2011. Compiled and presented by .id (opens a new window), the population experts.
(Enumerated data)

Republican Beck writes letter to Muse's Bellamy after right-wing comments
US republican commentator Glenn Beck has written an open letter to Muse's Matt Bellamy after comments the singer made against right-wing conservatives.
On Sunday, Bellamy told The Observer that he felt uncomfortable with right-leaning US conservatives, like Beck, hijacking the band's music to "try to take down people like Obama and put forward right-wing libertarianism".
Responding to the comment, Beck has written a lengthy open letter to Bellamy explaining why he loves the band – in the past, he's described the lyrics to Uprising as being "just dead on about what's coming our way" – and insists he'll continue to play their music, NME reports.
Beck wrote: "As uncomfortable as it might be for you, I will still play your songs loudly. To me your songs are anthems that beg for choruses of unity and pose the fundamental question facing the world today – can man rule himself?
"In the Venn Diagram of American politics, where the circles of crimson and blue overlap, there's a place where you and I meet. It's a place where guys who cling to their religion, rights, and guns, connect with godless, clinched-fist-tattoo, guys."
He said: "You seem to have a pretty good grasp of comparative US and European politics, but maybe there's a pattern that you're underestimating. Throughout history, leaders have used music to lull young people into a sense of security and euphoria. They've used artists to create the illusion that they can run a country that keeps all the good and wipes out all the bad. Think Zurich 1916. Think artists getting behind guys like Lenin and Trotsky. Think of pop culture's role in the Arab Spring. The youth rises up, power structures crumble, and worse leaders are inserted.
Beck closed his written statement by saying: "Matthew, I realise that converts are pretty hard to come by when the stakes are so high and the spotlight so bright, but I thank you for singing words that resonate with man in his struggle to be free. Good luck on the new record."
Muse released their sixth studio album The 2nd Law this week. It includes new singles Madness and Survival as well as dubstep-influenced track The 2nd Law: Unsustainable. The 13-track album is the follow-up to 2009's The Resistance and has been recorded in London.
The band is well-known for their anti-establishment lyrics and conspiracy theories relating to world powers.

An Egyptian radio host who calls himself the official voice of Donald Duck on Disney Middle East was fired after sending anti-Israel tweets.
Wael Mansour tweeted the news of his firing on February 6, six months after his tweet against Israel.
"Disney decided I am no longer the official voice of DonaldDuck in it's middle-east dubbed cartoons because of an anti Zionism tweet. Proud!" he tweeted on February 6.
He then retweeted the tweet that got him into trouble in the first place:
"I truly wish #Israel is demolished, I hate Zionism, I have so much hate inside me with every single child they murder or land they seize!" Mansour tweeted on August 4. As of Wednesday it had been retweeted more than 1,700 times.
Mansour responded to some critics at the time by tweeting: "I don't know why insulting #Israel & #Zionism is "Anti-Semitic"?! They are just a bunch of Polish/ Ethiopian immigrants roughly 70 years old"
Mansour reportedly was not employed directly by Disney, but came to the work through a dubbing company.

'They don't know us, what we are': an analysis of two young adult texts with Arab-Western protagonists
Lampert, Jo (2006) 'They don't know us, what we are': an analysis of two young adult texts with Arab-Western protagonists. Papers: Explorations into children's literature, 16(2), pp. 51-57.
Accepted Version
(PDF 74kB)
Since 9/11, when Arabs in the West found themselves under suspicion, the way Arabs could be portrayed in Young Adult fiction has become complicated. This paper will look at two examples of this fiction to explore the difficult position characters in these texts now find themselves in. The short story 'Alone and All Together' (Geha 2002) is written by an Arab-American author. In it, Labibeh and her sister must negotiate their relationship with America both by maintaining their Arab identification in the days after 9/11 whilst at the same time proving that they are real and loyal Americans. Similarly, in the Young Adult novel Does My Head Look Big in This (Abdel-Fattah 2005) authored by a self-proclaimed 'Australian-born-Muslim-Palestinian- Egyptian-choc-o-holic' writer, a young Muslim girl must contend with racism and misunderstanding at her private school in Melbourne when she decides to wear the hijab. As in the first text, she too must prove her status as a 'normal' Western girl while at the same time proudly maintaining her commitment to Islam. This delicate balance does not come easily for any of these characters, nor is it without sacrifice as the protagonists negotiate their cultural identities in acceptable ways.

I need a hand. My boss has approached me to have a look at one of the computers at work because someone has been searching some pretty obscene and disgusting things on google. They still appear in the google toolbar in Internet Explorer when you press down to see the recent searches.
my questions is, is there a way of finding out the date and time of these searches as to narrow down to who it could possibly be.
I was thinking it should be stored in cookies, but they may have deleted them.
Any help or input would be awesome!

WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker John Boehner says he's confident congressional leaders will be able to come together to avoid a government default in the wake of the collapse on budget talks with President Barack Obama.
Boehner accused Obama of "moving the goal posts" by demanding $400 billion in tax increases on top of about $800 billion in revenues that would have been reaped through a comprehensive rewrite of the tax code.
The Ohio Republican said he'll be attending a White House meeting Saturday morning aimed at coming up with a fallback plan to raise the government's borrowing cap — but he said spending cuts of a commensurate size will still have to be attached.

Not much has missed Ali Williams in his lengthy career.
He's been around the rugby block more than most, suffered major injuries, fallouts with coaches, serious form fluctuations and ploughed his way through 77 tests and more than 100 Super rugby matches.
He was tapped by Blues coach John Kirwan to help lead a revival at the franchise and will be the only forward to start every match when he trots out tonight in Dunedin against the Highlanders.
He's had a dozen games at the helm, picking his way through leadership ideas as he bedded into his role. Williams is an emotional bloke who has a zest for life. You figure he would be an excitable and expressive leader. That is his natural inclination but he has worked hard to find a better balance about his stewardship.
"I am enjoying this because it is not something which comes naturally to me," he confided.
Nor does the need to withdraw slightly which has been necessary with the passionate John Kirwan guiding the Blues. "There is no point in both of us going at them and ending up giving them no direction.
"My emotion is about getting the Blues to a better place and that is what I have to do. If I didn't care about that I wouldn't be here. Sometimes you do things that fit for the good of the team.
"It may not be natural but it is necessary."
It's been only a week since Ali Williams shed his All Black cloak, publicly. In that time he can reflect and admit he underestimated the turmoil his decision and explanations would bring.
Then there was the defeat to the Brumbies in awkward conditions at Eden Park. "I was all over the place," he said.
"I did not play too badly, I think I just made the odd mistake which cost us.
"I am comfortable with what I have done and bloody excited to be around this Blues environment and the positive changes you can see now and in the future.
"We can do better. When we attack we are good but it is about stepping up from average to good and learning how to win when that does not happen through natural ability."
During the summer section of the Super 15, players could attack and chuck the ball around but as winter approached, sides had to tighten up or slow down and those traits did not come easily for the Blues.
It was an unremitting process.
Tonight, the exuberant Blues are indoors in Dunedin after a week of training in the Auckland slush. They would need to adapt once more and work on that tactical awareness.
Both sides had endured another tricky week with senior players at the All Black training camp in Mt Maunganui so the winner was likely to be the side who reacted best to those interruptions.
The Blues were not twitchy, they were unaffected by the match stakes.
"Even in a game they make you feel at ease. We have had some hard decisions but we get on with it," said Williams.
"I don't like bossing them every second, I like to harness them and say; "this is what you do and you do it well so you have my confidence and trust to do that.
"Take control, be your own man and we will back that up in the team."
