IT should be so easy, but ain't!
There was a knock on the door this past Sunday morning. I opened it
to find a young, well-dressed man standing there who said:
"Hello sir, I'm a Jehovah's Witness."
So I said "Come in and sit down."
I offered him a fresh cup of coffee and asked "What do you want to talk about?"
He said, "Beats the shit out of me, I've never gotten this far before."
I swear, by my life and my love of it, that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another man to live for mine. - Ayn Rand
IT should be so easy, but ain't!
"If God had not intended for us to eat animals, how come He made them out of meat?" - Sarah Palin
New Member of the Busted Box Club
Do ya know why so many Jehovah's Witnesses have inverted nipples?
Because your index finger is poking them in the chest saying,"You get off my porch!"

Standard(s): [SS2010] USS6 (6) 9: Critique major social and cultural changes in the United States since World War II.
Title: See Me, Hear Me, Understand Me: Franklin D. Roosevelt's Pearl Harbor Address
The viewing goals for this lesson were for students to use a visual text, Franklin D. Roosevelt's "Day of Infamy" speech (played first without sound), to identify visual cues & understand why he may have chosen to use certain gestures, facial expressions, & body language to communicate his message. I wanted students to view & identify what an effective speaker does when speaking formally. By noticing & analyzing visual cues, I wanted students to infer the purpose of his speech & intended audience.
The listening goals for this lesson were for students to listen to FDR's "Day of Infamy" speech (after watching it first with no sound), and discriminate, through his chosen words, the purpose of his speech & point of view. Students were asked to listen to FDR's use of voice & tone to understand his message. In the group conversations that followed, my goal was for students to listen to & consider the perspectives/ideas of others & work together to analyze what they heard that made this a formal speech.
The speaking goals for the lesson were for students to react through speaking to the video clip & apply characteristics of FDR's formal speaking to their own formal speaking by considering gestures, facial expressions, body language, voice, tone, & specific vocabulary to communicate purpose & point of view. In segment one, my goal was for students to notice how, through listening/viewing, FDR communicated his message & viewpoint, not simply the topic of his message.

Title: Childhood Through the Looking-Glass
This lesson from EDSITEment explores the vision of childhood created by Lewis Carroll in Alice in Wonderland. Students begin by looking at Carroll's photographs of the real Alice for whom Carroll imagined his story and compare the image of childhood that he captured on film with images of children in our culture. Then students read Alice in Wonderland with special attention to the illustrations that Carroll made for his book, and explore the relationship between words and pictures by creating an Alice illustration of their own. Next, for contrast, students compare Carroll's vision of childhood with that presented by the Romantic poet William Blake in his illuminated Songs of Innocence and Experience. Finally, students consider the interplay of image and text in their own favorite children's literature and how the vision of childhood presented there compares to their experiences as children. Several pieces of literature appropriate for use with this lesson are suggested.

The Art of Japan At The Textile Museum and the National Gallery
When taking on the art of an unfamiliar cultural tradition, it's difficult to know where to start. There are immediately questions—namely, Do I understand what I am looking at? The aesthetic terrain, symbolism and subject matter are foreign, often incongruous to our own knowledge. For instance, as far as everyone in America and Europe is concerned, a hexagram is synonymous with the Star of David (the Jewish Star). However, in ancient Indic lore, the hexagram was a symbol of creation, the overlapping triangles representing "the divine union of male and female."
When dealing with a culture as deeply rooted, multifaceted and intricate as Japan's, there is almost no way to take it all in. Japan has a cultural and religious system of symbols and an artistic tradition as unique and fascinating as any in the world, and to know it would require years of time and effort. However, in the same way Picasso found revelation in African tribal masks for their raw aesthetic radiance, it is sometimes enough to admire the beauty and facility of cross-cultural artisanship.
Right now, The Textile Museum and the National Gallery of Art are hosting monumental exhibits of Japanese art, both of which expose the sheer beauty of the country's sophisticated craft and artistic traditions.
The Textile Museum's "Woven Treasures of Japan's Tawaraya Workshop" (Mar. 23 – Aug. 12) display the Japanese textile traditions of the Tawaraya, a still-operational silk workshop over 500 years old, that has woven fine silk garments for the Imperial Household for centuries. The National Gallery's "Japanese Bird-and-Flower Paintings by Itō Jakuchū (1716 – 1800)," on view only through the end of the month, exhibit Jakuchū's thirty-scroll series of nature and wildlife, proving him to be an unprecedented innovator in style, technique and aesthetic. Both exhibits are a master class in composition, color and design, and both beg to be viewed live. In photographs they are impressive, but in person they are breathtaking.
(It must also be noted that the Sackler Gallery, on the National Mall, is hosting an overwhelming exhibit of printmaker Katsushika Hokusai (1760–1849), perhaps the most acclaimed artist in Japanese history, titled "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji." However, this exhibit demands coverage all its own, and thus is not included in this article.)
Based in Kyoto, Japan, the Tawaraya silk workshop is perhaps the oldest and most illustrious workshop in the country. While popular among the public for producing fabrics used in traditional theatrical costumes, Tawaraya is renowned for their production of yusoku orimono—garments of fine silks in patterns, weaves and color combinations traditionally reserved for the Japanese Imperial Household. On display in The Textile Museum, they read like an installation work, speaking of harmony, balance and serenity.
In a peculiar way, they are reminiscent of Sam Gilliam's hanging fabric installation at The Phillips Collection, which closed almost a year ago. The Japanese fabrics of vibrant and subtle colors and ancient symbols, whose aesthetic is rooted in a centuries-old practice, become suddenly and hugely contemporary. This is a little ironic, as the man behind Tawaraya's operations today, Hyoji Kitagawa, is the 18th-generation successor of this family-run workshop, who has painstakingly maintained silk weaving techniques passed down over a millennia, right down to dye recipes from the tenth century.
One remarkable aspect of these designs is the length that is taken in pursuit of subtlety and understatement. Where it is more familiar in the Western tradition for the elite to be wearing louder, flashier clothing, in Japanese aristocracy it would seem that bold symbols and wild colors are considered crass and unsophisticated. The Emperor's yusoku orimono is composed of but pristine white and earthy brown ochre silks.
The patterns and symbols are similarly more nuanced. On the garments of a regular citizen, the symbol of a tortoise—which represents long life—would likely be a large, obvious and rather literal interpretation. On a yusoku orimono, the creature is represented by a pattern of hexagonal blocks, each one an individual shell, that stretch monochromatically across the silk. You will see cherry blossoms, cranes, pine trees, phoenix, bamboo and butterflies, each of which carry their own meaning and significance, but all of which are independently beautiful.
These symbols carry over to the National Gallery, where the 30 scrolls of 18th century Japanese painter Jakuchū might actually bowl you over. The expansive scrolls are intricate and effusive: a pair of chickens embroiled in a dynamic mating dance, feathers ruffled in exacting detail and eyes wild among a craggy hibiscus plant; an adumbrated landscape of seashells, crabs and starfish on the ocean's floor; a wild goose in the reeds, hurtling toward a pond's icy surface; a rooster amidst a plant of small, piercing red nandina berries. Yet within the paintings there is a fluidity of composition, a pristine sense of geometry and an unquantifiable harmony of color that link them to the same tradition as the Tawaraya silks.
Both offer an otherworldly glimpse of tradition, discipline and aesthetic near-perfection. The Japanese history is rich in artistic life, and Washington is lucky to have such resplendent exhibitions of their works to appreciate and compare.

Dustin Garis, former Chief Troublemaker, Procter & Gamble
According to a shocking study, "over 99.7% of employees and consumers are human." Assuming this is true, how could our approach to innovation be more human? To find out, Dustin Garis embarked on an around the world expedition, and what he uncovered was an innovation revolution taking place at global megabrands and entrepreneurial startups, fueling market disruptions that go beyond whitening teeth or quenching thirst, to innovate on the full human experience. Garis made this a priority while leading global innovation at P&G Futureworks, responsible a billion-dollar portfolio of new brands, business models, technologies and entrepreneurial ventures such as Tide Dry Cleaners and Shazam. The success of these inititives come not from practicing innovation - it came from living innovation. For Garis, that means converting an elevator into his office, riding an 1,800 pound bull in a rodeo, eating lunch blindfolded, fetching well water in rural India, and other life experiments that ignited an organizational movement.

David S. Duncan, co-author with Clayton Christensen
of the forthcoming book, Competing Against Luck: The Story of Innovation and Customer Choice
Why is innovation so prone to failure? One big reason is the lack of an effective lens for understanding what really drives customers to pull new solutions into their lives. The theory of "jobs to be done" provides a powerful set of tools to understand customer behavior and a new way to look at the intersection of marketing and innovation. Going beyond traditional approaches to developing customer insights and segmentation, this approach shifts the focus from solutions that customers use to the fundamental problems they can't adequately solve. This talk will describe how jobs thinking can be used to shape innovations that have a greater chance of success and how the approach can be institutionalized in your organization to create enduring competitive advantage.

Chris Sanderson, who passed away in June 2012 after a long battle with cancer, touched the lives of many lacrosse players. Evan Kirk, the second-year goaltender for the Minnesota Swarm, knows that from personal experience, and this season the former Hobart standout is paying tribute to Sanderson with a custom-painted goalie mask from Sportmask, with unreal work from Kyle Langlois, who runs Auto Tattoo.
Kirk, a longtime OLA netminder (suiting up for the Orangeville Northmen and Kitchener-Waterloo Braves in Junior A and then later for the Kitchener-Waterloo Kodiaks in Major Series play), says that he wanted to pay tribute to Sanderson, not because Chris was Kirk's idol growin up — which he was and still is — but because when Evan had a chance to get to know him and back him up as a member of Team Canada at the 2006 world games, Sanderson's character stood out above the rest.
"Chris was one of the wittiest and funniest people I have ever met and he was the type everyone swarmed around," Kirk says. "He has done so much in and for the game of lacrosse, as well as influenced thousands to love the game. Chris gave back and I feel that it's only fair to give back."
At the end of the season, this unbelievable work of art will be auctioned off via the NLL website (NLL.com) and the Swarm's site (Swarm.com). Kirk wants to use the effort to raise money for another Canadian goaltender who is also battling cancer: Kyle Miller, who played lacrosse at Cornell and later also suited up for Team Canada. He's also the brother of Philadelphia Wings netminder Brandon Miller. It just so happens that, after a great career at the University of Virginia, Sanderson suited up for the Wings and later was a member of the Philly bench.
"Kyle is going through a tough battle with cancer and he needs it more than anyone right now, so it only seems right to make this happen," Kirk says. "Kyle is part of a special club Chris runs called the 'Goalie Union' and I know Chris would have wanted him to have it."
Kirk wishes to give tremendous thanks to Kyle Langlois for his work here, some of the most detailed we've ever seen. Kirk also hopes readers will take a look at Kyle Miller's blog — KyleMiller35.com — so you can follow his journey and, if you can, help him by making a donation or picking up something cool from the Beat It Shop.
For more on Chris Sanderson, visit our archives. To see all of the goalie masks featured so far in the NLL Goalie Showcase, get caught up here. Also, check out Evan's mask from 2012 here.
And stay tuned, as we'll be bringing you more info on how you can try to win this helmet and help a great cause in the process.
Kirk wears number 35, and that's a tribute to Kyle Miller. It's painted on the front of the mask pays tribute to Kyle Miller.

Seems to me prints done once don't count! Most annoying she has this delay.
I did the (ink) prints card at my local SO to send to get my FL non-res ........ so they were done and on file.
Later than that tho, at vast expense - I had to drive to Pittsburgh and back to get an INS electronic prints scan done prior to achieving my citizenship. 250 mile round trip - $70 for the ''process'' which took less than 20 minutes - $5 for parking that short time ... add up all my costs, gas and time etc and the deal was probably taking $150 out of my pocket!
Hopefully I will not have to ever get them done again - tho would hardly be surprised!

The woman, who lives in Los Angeles plush Beverly Hills district, says she can offer no rational explanation for her actions.
Knight has pleaded not guilty to charges she bombarded the British-born actress with threatening letters and phone calls.
She remains in custody in lieu of $1.45 million bail pending a July the 26th hearing.

Lobos Welcome Grand Canyon for Senior Day
Jan. 9, 2013
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - After two weeks of rest that were undoubtedly filled by mom's home cooked meals, the Lobo swimming and diving team is back in action this weekend as it welcomes the Antelopes of Grand Canyon University this Saturday at noon for the final home meet of the season. The event will also serve as senior day and five athletes will be honored.
The Lobos are coming into this meet still riding high after they claimed the title at the UNLV Invitational by a wide margin. New Mexico's final score of 987.5 was a full 176 points higher than Pacific University who came in second with 811.5 points.
"The team has been training hard and we're coming off of what was a great first half of competition," said Kunio Kono. "After the UNLV Invitational the team will go into this meet with a lot of energy, they've seen what they can do and the potential they have and they're very confident. This is senior day and this is their show."
The seniors may be in the spotlight this Saturday, but that doesn't mean that the Antelopes will go down easily. At 3-3 the members of the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference share the same record as New Mexico, but they are currently ranked 6th in the NCAA's Division II poll. The `Lopes are coming off of one of their more successful seasons last year when they won the conference championships and finished fifth at NCAA Championships.
This however, doesn't intimidate Kono or the team who is taking things one meet at a time leading up to the Mountain West Championships, which are taking place Feb. 20-23 in San Antonio, Texas.
"We're going to take the meets one at a time," said Kono. "Each contest will serve as a mini training trip where we can work on what needs to be done and not get too ahead of ourselves."
Getting ahead of oneself is indeed something that can happen for the five seniors swimming in front of a home crowd for the last time, but they've put in four years of hard work, and they intend to shine for the Lobo faithful one last time.
The five seniors that will be honored this weekend include: Alyssa Keill, a native of Fairbanks, Alaska, Aubrey Bush, senior diver from Eaglecrest, Colo., Lindsey Morris, another product of the Centennial State, Hayley Martin from Essex, Vt. and Marissa Campbell, a native of the Duke City.

Take one part Southern history, one part outdoor concert, one part carnival, and a smidgen of the Fourth of July. Mix well and you have Savannah's River Street.
At the time of the city's founding in 1733, the cobblestone street was a stomping ground for pirates and rogues, until cotton became king and Savannah its queen. Worldwide cotton prices were officially set on Factor's Walk, just above the River Street cotton warehouses.
Today, the thoroughfare boasts 20-some restaurants, four art galleries, 84 shops, and six hotels. "River Street is 'New Orleans lite'―all of the culture, minus the raunch," says Carol Hixson, who moved here to attend the Savannah College of Art and Design (known locally as "scad").
Any weekend from March through December, you're likely to find a celebration on River Front Plaza. Take St. Patrick's Day, when the population swells by the thousands for a party bested only by New York's. "Our St. Patrick's Day is everything you have heard―and then some," says Kenny Hill, associate director of the Savannah Waterfront Association. Or consider Oktoberfest, when almost 200 canines compete in weiner-dog races.
The fun extends to smaller festivals as well. The Waterfront Association plans more than 20 events, including First Friday (of the month) celebrations capped off by fireworks over the river. First Saturday festivities feature music and artwork made and sold by juried artists. All the events are free, but a portion of proceeds from sold items goes back to the community through nonprofit groups such as Second Harvest, a hunger-relief group.
Just walking around on a festival weekend is an invigorating experience. You can sample fish on a stick, watch pottery being made, and listen to a mariachi band play "Blue Suede Shoes." The pirates of old wouldn't recognize today's River Street, and they probably wouldn't know what to make of the street performers. But they'd still have a good time―and they'd definitely enjoy the fireworks.

Re: Engine Replacement question
Now that i'm done being a dick, all I was trying to get at was that you probably hear a lot more about any issue with the 3.6 engines because they have been made in such mass quantities and used across GM's entire fleet. Wasn't bashing your (or anyone else's for that matter) V6 on here. Congrats on your 137K miles, may there be many more to go.

Re: Engine Replacement question
I remember looking at one of the chains used on the 3.6. Most chains on a mountain bike look more durable. Very poor design... the engineers and the managers who approved that design need a public Flogging
7 northstars have gone through my family 1 had hg issues.
1 3.6 is in my family and the thing drinks oil worse than that n* with a bad hg blew coolant.
The 3.6 non di is junk. The problems of them are documented and well known. Did gm ever issue a recall for Hgs? Nope. But you bet your ass there's a recall on the 3.6 timing chains.

Feature #16103
Night-time lighting effects on RPGs in flight
|Start date:
|Due date:
|% Done:
|Target version:
|Affected Version:
|Close Reason:
ACE has made a visual change to RPGs, M136s, Carl Gustavs and several other types rocket launchers that I bitterly dislike.
When firing warheads from any of these weapons at night, the rocket motor gives off light, illuminating the ground beneath it.
ACE changes the color of this light from a believable shade to one matching the color of the burning exhaust. In this case: red. Flat, pure, bright red.
The effect is somewhere inbetween a strange sort of flare gun and a Las Vegas casino flying through the air. The world simply doesn't turn that color in real life, not unless the designer of some sort of firecracker is determined to get an incredibly strong tint. It looks jarring, distracting, and downright ugly.
Now, it is true that RPGs appear as a red glow in-flight, but simply because the overall color is red does not mean that the light given off would turn a 50m swathe of ground the exact same shade. Unless someone can post a video showing this phenomenon, I can't believe that even a purpose-built flare could create an effect like this.
The lighting for rockets in flight is perfect to begin with in vanilla OA.

The new Voter ID laws solicited by Conservatives aren't balancing out well for some. One such individual, Ruthelle Frank, is also a leading member of her community and now she cannot vote for the first time in her 48 year history of voting.
Supposedly this law was enacted to prevent fraudulent voting, however, it's disenfranchising those legally allowed to vote, who are typically elderly, poor and or minorities.
Ms. Frank, born on Aug. 21, 1927 in her home, was visited by a doctor during her mother's complicated delivery. The delivery resulted in Frank being paralyzed on the left side of her body.
Wausau Daily Herald reports:
Her mother recorded her birth in the family Bible. Frank still has it. A few months later, when Ruthelle was baptized, her mother got a notarized certificate of baptism. She still has that document, too.
The one document she's never had, or needed was a birth certificate and without it she cannot get a state ID card which is necessary to vote according to Wisconsin's Voter ID law. Ms. Frank has actively voted since 1948.
"It's really crazy," she said this week, sitting at her kitchen table with evidence of her identity spread out before her — the baptism certificate, a Social Security card, a Medicare statement, a checkbook. "I've got all this proof. You mean to tell me that I'm not a U.S. citizen? That I don't live at 123 First St. in Brokaw?
The state Register of Deeds in Madison has a record of her birth which it can generate a birth certificate for her but at a cost to her. That cost is $20 and Ms. Frank states, "I look at that like paying a fee to vote."
To further complicate matters, the attending physician at her birth misspelled her maiden name, which was Wedepohl. This means it will be necessary for Frank to petition a court in order to have the document amended, resulting in costs amounting $200 or more.
This is not an isolated case:
A 2005 study by the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's Employment and Training Institute found an estimated 177,399 Wisconsin residents 65 and older do not have a driver's license or state photo ID — 23 percent of that population. The study estimated that another 98,247 residents ages 35 through 64 lack IDs. Disparities were especially pronounced among racial minorities.
Sen. Jim Holperin, D-Conover (I like the name of that county), has circulated a bill which would waive the state's birth certificate fees for people who are trying to vote. Only one cosponsor out of the 11 is a Republican.
"I feel for other people out there" who don't have IDs, she said. "I think they just won't vote." And that's what the other Republicans spreading this bill across America are counting on. Unless, we are to believe that in order to prevent someone from possibly voting fraudulently, they must ostracize other groups in the voting ranks.
This is but another reason to recall Governor Walker. Democrats are fighting, trying to keep our voting rights intact by pushing back on these new laws which disenfranchise voters.

Sedona Rouge Hotel & Spa in Sedona, Arizona
With the mystical rust-red rocks as a backdrop, elegant Sedona Rouge Hotel & Spa is at home in a contemporary adobe-style building. Completely devoid of kitschy clichés, interiors of this intimate boutique hotel pick up on the modern aspects of Southwestern design meshing it with traditional Moorish flair. A mod burbling fountain anchors the lobby while the courtyard is covered in green desert-hardy plants - an inviting pool at its center. The 72 guest rooms and suites are sleekly furnished following along the lines of the Spanish-Moroccan theme sporting splashes of eye-catching dark reds with luxurious bedding and private patios or balconies. Among the standard plush amenities are flat-screen televisions, complimentary wireless Internet, a petite fridge, and gourmet coffee service. The spacious bathrooms are kitted out with super soft cotton towels, large walk-in rain showers and dual showerheads.
Catch some rays while lingering in one of the chaises lining the deck around the heated pool and Jacuzzi. Looking to stay active? Join the al fresco chakra yoga class in the mornings. Or indulge in a visit to the resort's sizable spa where the earthy color palette mirrors Sedona's natural surroundings. The cutting edge wellness center features a Tranquility Room, steam rooms, and, in light of Sedona's famed vortex sites, intuitive services such as Tarot readings and spiritual acupuncture. Expert therapists administer detoxifying herbal wraps, invigorating scrubs or healing massages like myofascial bodywork and Hawaiian-inspired Lomi-Lomi. On balmy nights savor panoramic canyon views from around the fire pit on the hotel's rooftop terrace. Get there early to glimpse the dramatic color spectacle at sunset. Later, arrange for a table in the bamboo garden area at locally popular on-site REDS Restaurant & Bar where Executive Chef Ron Moler prepares upscale comfort food hailing from his native Tucson. Tuck into braised pork Kahrabi ribs with Burgundy fig risotto or butternut squash ravioli to the subdued sounds of live music on select evenings. Sedona Rouge Hotel & Spa defies the stereotypical rules of style for luxe desert dwelling like a trendsetting breath of fresh air with a comprehensive list of amenities to boot.

Reviews for Sedona Rouge Hotel & Spa
A very disappointing visit to this overpriced motel masquerading as a boutique hotel. Towels and bed linen were old and worn. Our room which apparently was deluxe had a side view of nothing much and was dark and gloomy. The carpet was not seemingly cleaned during our stay. The swimming pool was full of leaves and was not at all inviting. The mattresses on the sunbeds were so worn they were stained with all the previous occupants' body secretions. The toilets located closet to Reds restaurant were not cleaned over 2 days, the toilet bowls were dirty and the bins not emptied. Not somewhere you will want to stay if you have even moderate standards of personal hygiene

My hubby and I celebrates 5 years here. Great service, BEAUTIFUL rooms (and I mean gorgeous) fun, outdoorsy activities around and free delicious breakfast and appetizers every day. can't beat that! I would totally come again. the housekeepers had our room spotless every time we left (how do they,do that?). the pool was a perfect retreat from the desert heat.

My wife and I have been to Sedona numerous times but this was our fist stay at the Sedona Rouge. I am constantly amazed at some of the negative reviews. We booked through Expedia and were told upfront there would be a deposit of $50 for our dog. No problem. The hotel is great for pets. We had a very nice room on the first floor in back. It had a great shower, comfortable bed, and a door to a patio. There is a large lawn with pet poop bags and disposal, and two fire pits. The service was excellent. We had a problem with the remote at syncing to to monitor. After we called the front desk it took 5 minutes for maintenance to come and explain the system. Red restaurant was great. Breakfast was comped with my registration through Expedia. Dinner was very good and reasonable for the quality. Service is not rushed but leisurely. We ate there two nights. They had a new wine that they let us try before ordering which was excellent . The manager came over to ask our opinion of the whole experience and discussed why he chose the wine.There's also a great wood fired pizza place across the street. This was a perfect West Sedona location with easy parking, great service and food, and an excellent room. We'll be back!

We were staying in the "Spa" building with private Jacuzzi etc. After being out all day on Saturday June 17th, we returned at 4PM to find the room uncleaned with wet towels still by the Jacuzzi and shower . A desk clerk said rooms were normally cleaned between 4-5 PM but no housekeeper ever showed up. The Hotel manager was on vacation that weekend and the supervisor accomplished nothing. Sunday morning after a call to the desk and a trip to the desk . coffee and water replacements were eventually brought to the room but no one ever showed up to take wet towels etc. Apparently the hotel is privately owned and the staff refused to provide any way to contact the ownership.
Phil W - Miami, Florida
Nice rooms that were kept clean. Lots of towels, nice robes, great location. They have a nice spa and a great outdoor pool. The cleaning crew did a nice job and you received vex 2 bottles of water daily.

Despite a lot of talk to the contrary, the Bears shouldn't even consider cutting Cedric Benson until training camp and, if he's healthy, they shouldn't cut him regardless of the outcome of last Saturday night's arrest for boating while intoxicated and resisting arrest.
The Bears should treat Benson's arrest as what it is – a misdemeanor. Regular people don't usually lose their jobs over a misdemeanor, even if they're coming off a bad year. And in this case, there is considerable difference of opinion as to whether Benson resisted or was the object of overzealous police work. He has denied that he was drunk and that he resisted arrest.
Keep in mind, Benson has not been arrested since he was drafted by the Bears in 2005.
The fact that he's had only one arrest in three years doesn't make him a model citizen. But as general manager Jerry Angelo said last weekend after the Bears drafted two players with arrest records in college, "This isn't an angelic game, as we all know, so we certainly aren't going to get all angels."
And Benson is not a repeat offender in the NFL, although he was arrested for trespassing in college five years ago when he attempted to recover a TV set that had been stolen from him.
As of Friday morning, Angelo, who was said to have been out of town Sunday, had yet to make any comment on the situation.

The knee jerks who want Benson released immediately point out that he averaged just 3.4 yards per carry last season, which is admittedly a putrid performance – especially for the fourth-overall pick in the draft.
But no one on the Bears averaged more than 3.4 yards per carry last season. Adrian Peterson had the same average as Benson, Garrett Wolfe managed just 2.7 yards per attempt and Devin Hester netted minus-10 yards on seven attempts behind an offensive line that struggled to create holes big enough for an anorexic midget to slip through.
Second-round pick Matt Forte may well be capable of replacing Benson as the Bears' featured ball-carrier, but Smith and Angelo have always insisted that the team that "gets off the bus running the football" needs two starting-caliber runners.
It's debatable whether Benson qualified last season as "starting caliber," and he's coming off a fractured left ankle that required surgery, screws and a plate to fix. But who didn't believe Benson was a serviceable NFL running back during the final seven regular-season games of the 2006 Super Bowl season, when he averaged 4.9 yards per attempt while splitting carries with Thomas Jones? Jones is the guy who all the revisionist history buffs pine for while ripping Benson. But in 2006, when they both were running behind the same, solid offensive line, they had identical 4.1-yard averages. If Benson had a similar season last year, no one would be calling for his head.
It remains to be seen if Benson is healthy enough to duplicate that 2006 effort. If he is, he can still be a valuable contributor whether he's starting or not. If he can't contribute, he'll be a candidate to be released.
The Bears have already paid Benson $14 million in bonus money, the lion's share of what he'll make on his five-year rookie contract. Cutting him would cost millions of dollars in salary cap money that could go toward a new contract for Hester, or Tommie Harris, or Robbie Gould, or even an extension for Brian Urlacher.
If Benson can't help the Bears win, get rid of him and get someone who can. But let's wait for all the facts, all sides of the story and for the legal system to run its course before crucifying a player just because he hasn't lived up to expectations on the field.
If the Bears canned every player and coach who didn't get the job done last season, they could print their roster on a matchbook cover.
QB Caleb Hanie

Both rookies struggled with their accuracy in last Friday's first day of the weekend rookie minicamp but both were more accurate Saturday, when the Bears hopefuls were able to practice outside despite intermittent light rain.
"I thought the quarterbacks threw the ball better," head coach Lovie Smith said. "Both have a fairly good arm, and both have played at a pretty high level. Both have good leadership ability and all that, and this is a great opportunity for them. We have two quarterbacks on our roster right now, so there's a good chance one of them will be our third quarterback. There's an opportunity, and they seem like they're going to make the most of it."
Hanie, a two-year starter who led the Mountain West Conference with a 144.6 passer rating last season by completing 64.2 percent of his passes for 2,455 yards with 18 touchdowns and 15 interceptions, has demonstrated a stronger arm than Hill, who also started two years, during which he threw 43 TD passes and just 11 interceptions.
"Guys like John Lynch and Roy Williams, guys who come up and hit," Steltz said when asked who in the league he admires at his position. "And Mike Brown. That's three tremendous safeties that get to the ball and get to the ball in a bad mood. Good things happen when you get around the ball, whether it's an interception or it's a fumble recovery."
Steltz, who also forced three fumbles last season, is expected to be a leading contender for playing time at a position where the Bears have lots of depth but also plenty of questions because of Brown's injury history and other players' lack of experience.
That was good news for Benson after a weekend of bad publicity that came with a late Saturday night arrest for boating while intoxicated and resisting arrests, Class B misdemeanors which each carry a maximum penalty of six months in jail and/or a $2,000 fine. Benson is disputing both charges, claiming that he was pepper-sprayed and dragged ashore without cause.
Benson spoke with Smith and Angelo on Tuesday, but the Bears did not comment on those discussions or release any statements on their continuing investigation of the weekend incident – which occurred on Lake Travis near Austin, Texas.
Benson, the fourth-overall pick in the 2005 draft, has battled injuries and ineffectiveness throughout his NFL career, averaging a career-worst 3.4 yards per carry last season. He also suffered a fractured left ankle that ended his season five games early and which he is still rehabbing. Two weekends ago, the Bears used a second-round pick to draft Forte, who could be the heir apparent to Benson.
"I felt like our running game obviously was one of the weak spots on our football team." – Bears general manager Jerry Angelo on the 2007 team.

Gooodness! I have been tagged by Jubilee and Abby! O.K, I'm game for the game! Here goes:
The rules of the MeMe Game: Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Cats who are tagged need to write these seven things in their own diary plus these rules. Then you get to tag seven other cats and list their names. Then, leave each of your tagged cats a comment that they have been tagged and to read your diary.
1) I adored my mommy and would not wait for her to pick me up. If she was taking too long to shower me with attention, I would simply jump into her arms! Sometimes I would catch her off guard, but she still never failed to catch me!
2) Even though I was "fixed," when I was permitted to go outside, I would still "squirt" the yard. Not just anywhere, but systematically. I would work my way around the edge of the backyard, giving every 3rd boxwood a squirt!
3) I loved bird!! One Thanksgiving, grandma had the turkey soaking in salt water in the sink. I tried to drag it out of the sink!!
4) I also loved ice cream and would gobble it up so fast that I would get "brain freeze." I would have to stop and stand there with my mouth open for a minute or so before diving in again!
5) I loved to have my ears rubbed...hard! I would purr and my eyes would roll to the back of my head to show my appreciation!
6) I always let Isaac think he was tougher than me. I outweighed him by 7 pounds...or a whole cat...and could have put the Queen in his place anytime...but I never did.
7) I hated to be brushed. This was the only time I would not display undying affection to mom. When it came to brushing time, I hissed!! But my mom even misses the battle of the brush. I miss my mom too.
Here's the next 7 players:
Hairy 78000

I love architecture drawing. Maybe it is because I am so bad at it myself, but I am completely seduced by dense lines pointing to impossible forms and spaces, to Prismacolor pyrotechnics, and even to slavishly accurate classical renderings. Luckily, we seem to be undergoing a Renaissance of drawing, despite—or perhaps, perversely, because of the prevalence of computer and communication technologies.
The recent exhibition of the late Lebbeus Woods's work at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (through June 2nd) reminded me of beauties of pencil on paper (full disclosure: I oversaw the collection or commissioning of many of those works when I was curator there in the late 1990s). The drawings, which are much smaller in real life than their reach indicates, are gorgeous and troubling at the same time, indicating Woods's unease at the current state of our reality.
The architect never built anything beyond a few installations, though he very much wanted to. I would argue that is because his "experimental architecture," as he called it, drew us beyond what was possible to visualize the implications of what we were making out of our world. See, and wonder, he showed us, or be afraid, very afraid.
Another recent exhibition explored the possibilities of drawing in Europe. Aedas, the redoubtable architecture gallery in Berlin, just organized "New Frontiers: Experimental Tendencies in Architecture: Zeichnen (Drawing)." I am afraid it is now closed, but somebody should bring it to the United States; the catalog is a wonderful record. In the book's opening by Dieter Ronte, "Manifestatement" you can find a rousing call for drawing: "Think in pictures, not the husk of economic words. Liberate architecture from constrictions … Give your imagination room, imagine the room. …"
The more scholarly essay by Florian Medicus ends with a quote from the late Raimund Abraham: "…all you need is a piece of paper, a pencil, and a desire to make architecture." Some of the works, such as Sebastian Heinemeyer's plans on tracing paper, are abstract indications of such possibilities. Others, such as those of either Dietmar Franz or Franz Riedl, are collages that combine images of a decaying or empty world with drawn implications.
I love the more exuberant imaginings of Lukas Goebl, entitled Cities of Beautiful Bodies, or the sprawling explorations of urban conditions Constantin Luser spins out over the page. Florian Unterberger's Endless Drawing imagines a skyscraper city dissolving into colored blocks. In all these images, the essence and the end of built form are drawn out further.
Then there is the portfolio of a student named Henry Stephens, which one of my own students at the University of Cincinnati (James Bayless, himself a mean man with a pencil) found on Issuu. A New Zealander who also studied at the University of California at Berkeley, Stephens has an incredible imagination that he tethers to an ability to combine collage and hand drawing. His early work, done in Auckland, appears all to be pencil or charcoal, and strong at evoking moods. His most recent projects, including Woolopolis and a proposal for an Earthquake Museum, are mainly computer-generated collages with what appears to be some hand drawing. They show forms accreting into enigmatic masses or piles of recognizable form distorted by placement. I especially like A Visual Abduction, which starts from an analysis of the movie "Bullitt" and winds up with machines and cabinets I have to confess I do not understand, but which let me imagine a reality transformed through mechanical vision.
Finally, his proposal for a new home for the Pacific Film Archives in the Marin Headlands shows that mediated view contained in fragments of an almost pure architecture, if we think of that in Adolf Loos's sense as a gravestone found in a forest. I do not know who Stephens is, but if he, as well as some of the Europeans who did work that I saw in the Aedas gallery, and recently at schools in London, are any indication, we might not be able to borrow, scrimp, or build ourselves out of our mess, but we will be able to draw ourselves out of it.

Let's not pursue this line............When seconds count, cops take minutes........
When youre wounded and left on Afghanistans plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Just roll to your rifle and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier.
Rudyard Kipling
I was going to say it took a full, long, six minutes for the cops to show up! Not their fault, but if this guy was more violent or effective there would have been multiple injuries or deaths. You can see where the store owner gains confidence(and the knife) and then becomes angered at this attempted robbery. This criminal really didn't fight like he could have. For so many successful robberies, it is nice to see a botched one.
The Problem: When stupid people do stupid things, smart people end up getting killed.
On response time - a lot of variables to consider. I'm a reserve police officer in the small city I live in. I'd guess 3 min's maybe 4 at the most for ours guys to show up.
Larger city - police probably have further to travel - of course that's gonna take a bit longer.
I like to think our city's fast response time has more to do than just being a small city - we have a good auxiliary\reserve police officer program.
The cities with a good auxiliary or reserve police program have a little advantage in some ways.
With two in a car (full time officer and a reserve officer) you have your backup right there with you.
Without the auxiliary program - you have a lot of situations that call for two officers (two cars) required to handle the call. If they are already on a call and can't leave - another call comes in - say a robbery like the one in the video - and the ones already in that area can't respond then another car or two have to come in from the adjoining area which will take longer.
If they have reserve officers with them - two cars on a call (4 officers total) and the robbery is called in - it's a better chance that one car (two officers) can stay on the first call - allowing the other car (officer with their reserve officer with them) to dispatch to the robbery.
If you live in a city with no reserve officer program and the response time is longer than you think is reasonable - go to your counsel meetings and bring up the need of starting an auxiliary\reserve police officer program.
For God, Family and Country!
I have always heard that if you dial 911 you really should expect a officer to arrive 5 minutes after you give the dispacther your location.
I can see the Police station in Tallassee from my back door, but a lot of nights the 2 officers are out on patrol and only the dispatcher is in the station. So I cannot expect a swift response living as close as I do to the Police station.

Thanks for the video, it was interesting to watch. The BG's are trying to get a little smarter these days, the BG in this video apparently came prepared to lessen evidence by shielding his face with clothing and using gloves on his hands. The weather, though rainy, didn't seem very cold at all, the leo's were in short sleeves.
I did notice something though, the BG seemed extremely slow and sluggish, not even much of a scuffle. Don't get me wrong I'm not trying to take anything away from the store employees capturing him. The BG just seemed like he was on downers, or something, to me?
Helpful hints on pushing back and strengthening the 2A:
Great Link! I think it is fantastic when we see anyone stand up and defend themselves regardless of what weapon they use. I certainly hope the manager of that store was not disciplined for his choice to confront the would-be robber.....
Lets see, I saw one guy stop and help. I saw another come out and get in his suv. another went in the store and came back out w/o helping. then another drove up to the gas pumps then drove in front to watch then left when the law arrived.
if all these people had gotten out and helped this would have ended alot sooner.
Guy in SUV was useless...hope he never needs assistance from people in store...

Yeah one by-stander had sheep dog mentality the rest...sheeple
A real man loves his wife, and places his family as the most important thing in life. Nothing has brought me more peace and content in life than simply being a good husband and father.
I was routing the store owner guy on! That guy was kicking tail from the begging when he was fighting back through the manager office door. I felt as though the LEO did take a long time to get there. As aforementioned, if the attempted robber was alot more violent,or had backup weapons, or if the store owner wasn't so aggresive, this could be an R.I.P. thread, not a success one.
"To blame a gun for a mans decision is to foolishly attribute free will to an inanimate object"- Colion Noir.
that guy's got the heart of a lion...and good stamina to boot. 8 minutes of fighting is long, even with adrenaline. even more incredible was that he managed to not get sliced...at all. kudos to the store guy, and the 2 that helped him.
with that said...woulda been much easier if he were carrying :P
i also found it very disheartening how many sheeple kept their head in the sand, looked the other way, ignored the incident, and refused to help.
War is not the ugliest of things. Worse is the decayed state of moral feeling which thinks nothing is worth a war. A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which he cares for more than his personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free. -J.S. Mill
I hope he gets his carry permit now. (the owner, not he bad guy)
Good video, thanks for posting it.
Now the big question, how many of us would have joined in and helped the store owner beat this idiot down and tie him up? I would have.
I know some will say that if you walked up to this in the middle you wouldn't know who was who but I think you could figure it out since the bad guy was wearing a mask and gloves.

The Taylor County Commission recognized retiring Historical Society President Wanda Cash Monday, May 6, for her 17 years of service to the commission.
Cash, who has served as president since 1999, has "worked and made a great impact on collecting and preserving the history of Taylor County," stated a resolution the commission unanimously approved.
In 2007, Cash received the Dr. Peacock and Dr. Hendry Award, and in 2008 she was named "Lady of the Year." After the resolution was read aloud during Monday's meeting, the commission and audience joined together to give her a standing ovation.
"I love what I have done with the Historical Society," Cash said. "Though without help, I couldn't have done it."

I would need to be able to use this function in the WHERE clause instead than in the SELECT clause. Is there a way to do this? Meaning, to find the maximum value of a column used in the WHERE clause?
is there a way? possibly, but probably not
you can use the MAX function in the HAVING clause without problems
:rofl:ya...... Is the way to calculate the maximum value
SELECTc.idCharities,c.charityName,COUNT(g.idGreetings) AS totalGreetings,MAX(cp.paymentToDate) AS lastPaymentToDateFROM Greetings gINNER JOIN Charities c ON g.idCharities = c.idCharitiesLEFT JOIN CharityPayments cp ON cp.idCharities = c.idCharitiesWHERE ( (g.sendDate > ( SELECT MAX(cp2.paymentToDate) AS lastPaymentToDate FROM CharityPayments cp2 WHERE cp2.idCharities = c.idCharities )) OR ( SELECT MAX(cp3.paymentToDate) AS lastPaymentToDate FROM CharityPayments cp3 WHERE cp3.idCharities = c.idCharities ) IS NULL)GROUP BY g.idCharitiesORDER BY c.charityName;
select * from my_table having my_date = max(my_date)
select something , anything , but , please , not , the , dreaded , evil , "select star" from my_table where my_date = ( select max(my_date) from my_table )
select something , anything , but , please , not , the , dreaded , evil , "select star" from my_table where my_date = ( select max(my_date) from my_table ):D:rofl:
Thank you
I'm going to ask this question here, since it's connected to my last one. I have a table "users" with columns ssn (key) and others, and a table "donations" with columns user, amount and date. To help you in this example, suppose that we have 3 users, USER1, USER2 and USER3 in the first table, and 3 entries in the second table:
I want to return all the users who wither have never made a donation or have made a donation, but the last one was made more than one year ago (so, USER2 and USER3).
This is my query:
SELECT DISTINCT ssn
FROM users LEFT JOIN donations
ON users.cf = donations.user
WHERE donations.date IS NULL
OR '" . $year_ago . "' > (SELECT MAX(date) FROM donations)
$year_ago contains the current date, moved back of one year.This query return only USER3, instead that both USER3 and USER2.
i'll bet it's the same one
okay, this is progress, but your subquery selects the latest date by any user
here, try this --
SELECT users.ssn
FROM users
JOIN ( SELECT donations.user
, MAX(donations.date) AS latest
FROM donations
BY donations.user ) qual
ON qual.user = users.cf
AND qual.latest > CURRENT_DATE - INTERVAL 1 YEAR
WHERE qual.user IS NULL
Nope, this is a new one, I had already solved the problem connected to my first question
> here, try this --
Of course it works, but I don't understand why
never seen a subquery in the FROM clause before?
it's called a derived table, and in this query it has an alias, qual, which is used in joining it to the users table
the rest of it is a basic "unmatched" left outer join
Yes, but I have two questions:
if there's a way to achieve this using a subquery in the WHERE clause instead than in the FROM clause
I don't understand is this part of the query:
ON qual.user = users.cf
AND qual.latest > CURRENT_DATE - INTERVAL 1 YEAR
WHERE qual.user IS NULL
specifically the WHERE clause. The nested SELECT statement returns the ssn of the users who have made donations, together with the date of their last donation, so qual.user can't be NULL. Why do you ask for it to be NULL in the WHERE clause then?
Also, I was thinking about doing something like this (probably won't work):
ON qual.user = users.cf
WHERE qual.user IS NULL
OR qual.latest > CURRENT_DATE - INTERVAL 1 YEAR
Meaning make the WHERE clause more specific and the ON clause less specific.
that would be a NOT EXISTS subquery, yes
Why do you ask for it to be NULL in the WHERE clause then?because you want an unmatched left outer join
the left outer join specifies what you don't want to find, and the WHERE conditions filters out the ones where you did find it
i realize that the combination of negatives there might cause confusion, especially if this is your first encounter with an unmatched left outer join
I'm getting a headache XD
Edit: I understand now.
Since we're here, here's one more thing Suppose that I want to build the "opposite" query, i.e. find the users who have made a donation in the last year, is this query OK?
SELECT ssn
FROM users INNER JOIN donations
ON users.cf = donations.user
HAVING MAX(donations.date) >= CURRENT_DATE - INTERVAL 1 YEAR
no, it's not
use HAVING only with GROUP BY
try this --
SELECT users.ssn
FROM users
JOIN donations
ON donations.user = users.cf
AND donations.date >= CURRENT_DATE - INTERVAL 1 YEAR
BY users.ssn
where, i can hear you asking, did the MAX go?
ah, sql, let me count the ways...
I guess you don't need it in this query because you just need to find if a user has made a donation in the last year.
What about this query then
SELECT ssn
FROM users INNER JOIN donations
ON users.cf = donations.user
WHERE donations.date >= CURRENT_DATE - INTERVAL 1 YEAR
that's almost the same as the query i gave you in post #16
i suggest you run them both and compare output results
Right, I forgot to add the DISTINCT keyword in my last example
