Much is written today about the effective, or lack thereof, of the traditional Okinawan Tsuki, thrust, which is the main weapon of the Karate styles. Some say that the punch is in reality only a weak method that was used for teaching children, and not effective at all. Some say that the Okinawans taught a false punch to the Japanese so that their 'conquerors' would never know the true Okinawan skill. Others say that the punch is purposefully over rotated in order to keep it from being effective, unless one knows the three quarter secret.
The truth is that the Gyaku Zuki, 'reverse punch', the fully twisted thrust of Okinawan martial arts, is exactly as it should be, if one understands the actual use of the technique. But there are two aspects of the punch which most practitioners do not understand.
The first aspect is the power of Shin, mind. People have made the mistake of thinking that since Mushin, no mind, is the central teaching of most Oriental martial arts, that literally the person strives to have 'no mind' in their techniques. However, Mushin refers to the absence of extraneous thoughts. This has nothing to do with mental presence in fighting skills, but rather the concept of not allowing other thoughts to enter it when involved in something else. In regard to combat, it means to be totally focused on the fight. If in the middle of a battle a fighter starts thinking about what he will fix for supper, he will create a Suki, or gap, in his defense, allowing the opponent to defeat him/her. This principle is universal, in that it applies to all aspects of life. If a student is taking a math test and thinking of his English homework, then s/he will make mistakes on the test due to distraction. If a person is driving a car and thinking of their destination and what they are going to do once they get there, then it is possible that they will not see potential accidents in the making.
But the Oriental martial arts have always focused on having mind in technique. This means that the weapon, whether empty hand, such as in the Tsuki, or when holding a weapon, such as a sword, the mind extends into it. It was the belief of Japanese swordsmen that their Ki, spirit, literally extended into their sword, due to their mind. The spirit of the sword thus was a composite of the swordsmith, as he created the weapon, and each person to wield it.
In regard to body techniques, the spirit too should be focused in the weapon, such as the fist, through the presence of the mind. A way to test this presence of mind is to have a person hold their arm out in front of them as in a punch. Then, even while allowing them to resist the pressure, push their arm down. One should find that easy to do. Then have the practitioner execute a fully focused punch and maintain that high level of focus. Once again try to push the arm down. This time it should be much harder to do.
It is from this presence of mind that the power of the Okinawan Tsuki derives. Next it is important to have good technique, and this is the most debatable aspect of the punch. However, it is due to a lack of understanding of Shin that has lead to all the misunderstandings. In the ancient past it was important that the martial arts were effective. In regard to power, they were effective because each technique possessed mind and they were physically sound. In the traditional Tsuki, the whole body was directed into the punch.
But the aspect that is misunderstood, is that for a technique to be really good, both from the presence of mind and in regard to proper physical form, the skill must be practiced thousands of times. In the multiple repetitions is found the key to putting mind and form together. The body and the mind become unified so that the technique becomes effective.
Once this mind and body union is achieved, then it is possible to have power and effective technique in a multitude of similarly based skills. In example, the teaching of the basic reverse punch, Gyaku Zuki, here used to mean the full twisting punch of most major styles of Okinawan and Japanese Karate, as well as, Kempo, is in actuality the practice of three punches.
Each technique works according to range. When an attacker is close, the first punch is Sakasa Zuki, an inverted punch. This means that the punch is delivered straight from the load without any twist. If the attacker is slightly farther away, the punch is a Tate Zuki, vertical punch, meaning that the punch only rotates until it is palm in before it strikes. Finally the third punch is the Gyaku Zuki, or reverse punch, referring to the full rotation of the palm from up to down. Each punch is effective according to the proper application of the technique at the correct distance. Change the distance, and the technique will either be jammed or fall short.
What then imparts effectiveness of each punch at the correct distance? Shin, mind. What causes the mind to be effective and power to be properly transmitted? Kime, focus. If a technique is focused at the point of contact, then it does not matter if the punch is throw palm up, palm down, or anywhere in-between. And this is what has caused such commotion in the discussion of proper Okinawan punching of late.
There are some Okinawan stylists who have begun to insist that only the three quarter punch is effective and actually traditional. They say that this can be proved by punching a Makiwara or a person, and noting that the punch is most effective at the three quarter point of rotation. But what they are actually doing is standing at a distance so that the fist can only effectively rotate three quarters before it hits it's target. What they are actually showing is proper distancing for the punch, not the lack of effectiveness of the full rotation. If they would have the Makiwara or person one extra inch away or so, they would find out that the full rotation is just as powerful as the three quarter punch.
And actually this is one of the 'secrets' of Okinawan martial arts, a fist should be able to be held in any position, launched at an opponent and with some twist, no twist, or a full twist, be effective. If mind and spirit are present in the technique, it will be effective. The main reason that Okinawan martial artists use the full twist is in the ability to practice multiple techniques in one.
In Okinawan Bujutsu there are literally thousands of techniques. It is impossible to practice thousands of techniques, thousands of times daily. But if a person is taught how to interrelate techniques, then in the practice of key movements, literally hundreds of techniques can be practiced at one time. The best example is the Gyaku Zuki. As mentioned earlier, in the practice of the Gyaku Zuki one finds also the Sakasa Zuki and the Tate Zuki. But also found in that one movement are grappling techniques such as Kote Gaeshi and Kote Mawashi. There are even variations of the throws Sumi Gaeshi and Uki Otoshi, as well as, certain variations of Aiki Nage. All of these techniques and more are part of the practice of the simple one technique, Gyaku Zuki.
One great Okinawan Bujutsu master has said that the Okinawan martial arts have endless techniques. But when we start forgetting the full movements of traditional practice, it is possible to loose some of those endless skills. The Okinawans were geniuses of martial arts development. They combined the striking skills of their indigenous art of Te, with the various techniques they absorbed from Chugoku Kempo (Chinese Chuanfa), and the throwing skills of Japanese Jujutsu, which entered their countries at different times during their history, to develop an incredible method of combat. Their form of punching is probably the single most effective method in existence. Yet in modern times it has come under scrutiny as possibly less than effective. And yet it is not because the skill is ineffective, but because most simply do not understand proper Okinawan punching.
Many people note that when full contact Karate was formulated, the fighters found that the classical punches of Karate were ineffective in the ring when wearing gloves. But what was actually discovered is that a sword (the fist) when covered with a sheath (gloves), is not effective. It would be like trying to fight a battle with a Katana (Japanese sword) still in it's Saya (scabbard). The Okinawan method of punching was designed for use with a bare fist against flesh, a glove requires entirely different principles to be effective. And while there is nothing wrong with full contact Karate fighters, or kickboxers, learning how to throw punches with gloves on from boxers, it is a serious mistake to discard Karate punches because they are ineffective in the ring and with gloves on. Proper Okinawan punches were never intended for sport, they were designed for serious self defense and are extremely effective when applied with proper form, focus, and mind.
It is time to stop criticizing the technique, and time to start practicing. For years Okinawan and Japanese masters have taught and practiced the full method of fist rotation as the main form of punching. Some of these masters, being involved in law enforcement, have proven the techniques on the street. Many Karate practitioners who have had to defend their lives on the street have found the punch highly effective. In the repetitions of proper practice, involving thousands of punches, and practice in Kihon Kumite to develop good applications, one will find the true potential of the Okinawan method of punching.

Target: Dr. Thomas R. Frieden, Director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
Goal: Investigate the H3N8 virus now present in harbor seals to gain better insight of the virus and ways to protect against it.
From September to December of 2011, 162 harbor seals were found either dead or dying on the New England coastline. While it isn't unusual for the occasional unlucky sea animal to beach itself on these shores, the vast number in which the seals collected (4 times the amount expected) was enough to leave residents wondering just what was going on.
Five of these seal specimens were tested, and each was found to have had pneumonia and ulcers on their skin. Further genetic testing revealed that all five also had suffered from influenza A. Now, after an in-depth investigation, researchers from Columbia University believe they have an answer to the mystery surrounding the mass deaths: a mutant variant of the flu virus brought to the seals by birds infected with the avian flu.
We've seen it before in dogs, horses, pigs and birds. Now, this seal flu may be a result of the well-known avian flu virus (H1N1) mutating and adapting to life inside a mammal, much in the same way it has with pigs. Once the virus was isolated from the seals, scientists were able to conclude that this mammalian variant (H3N8) was able to able to spread from seal to seal. This flu dramatically affected the animal's airways, damaging lung tissue and allowing greater access for ancillary fatal infections to take hold.
"Our findings reinforce the importance of wildlife surveillance in predicting and preventing pandemics," explained W. Ian Lipkin, MD, of Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health, who headed the study—pointing out that past viruses originating in animals have had a devastating impact on human populations. HIV, West Nile, and influenza "are all examples of emerging infectious diseases that originated in animals."
Because the H3N8 bug has already been seen in horses and dogs and does not infect humans, it is unlikely that the virus found in seals will have any affect either. The worry, however, is that the mammal-adapted H3N8 strain will combine with the avian H5N1 (both capable of existing simultaneously in seals) and create an unrelenting deadly virus. To keep this threat low, U.S. institutions of health need to continue their work researching and inhibiting the seal flu.
Dear Dr. Frieden,
Researchers as part of Columbia University, as well as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, have found that seals dying off the coast of New England had fallen ill due to a specific strain of the flu virus—particularly, one that resides in seals (H3N8). In the past, viruses originating in animals have proven to be devastating to human population. HIV, West Nile virus, and the flu virus have all taken a toll on humans after each virus mutated to be able to inhabit humans.
Viruses like these have the potential to cause tremendous harm to populations around the world, and to better understand the risks that may be inherent in viruses like the seal flu, research must be continued. The threat that this seal flu could merge with the avian flu to form an even more powerful virus is real and altogether dangerous. I urge you, as the head of the CDC to continue looking at the seal flu. By understanding the bug, we can better formulate ways to eliminate it or protect ourselves from its harm.

I seriously don't see what this guy is talking about. He just repeatedly says that RG3 will be better than Cam. Some college kid that is barely 6 foot that has never played an NFL game will be better than Cam freaking Newton because apparently he is "a better passer". Cam could possibly be the most dominant player in the league in 2-3 years. By the way sorry for this.

From multi-million copy best-selling novelist Jerry Jenkins comes a compelling international thriller that conveys you from present-day Texas to a dank Roman dungeon in A.D. 67, then down the dusty roads of ancient Israel, Asia, and back to Rome.
A young seminary professor, Augustine Knox, is drawn into a deadly race to save priceless parchments from antiquities thieves and discovers a 2000-year-old connection with another who faced death for the sake of the truth. I, Saul consists of two riveting adventures in one, transporting you between the stories of Augustine Knox and Saul of Tarsus.
Filled with political intrigue, romance, and rich historical detail, I, Saul is a thrilling tale of loyal friendships tested by life-or-death quests, set two millennia apart, told by a master storyteller.

I'm Vlad and I love books.
"Loved it!"
Loved the story. Finished the book in about 3 days. The book goes about 2 stories at a time. One in the present day and one in the days of Paul.
"On the edge of my seat!"
I felt as if I was a spectator watching everything the writers wrote because of their ability to bring the words to life--Paul's prison cell, every character had a face, every place was clearly seen (though I have not traveled there).
I recommend the book to everyone who loves a good historical novel.
Loved the narration, too.
I will definitely listen again and again.
"So so thriller"
I doubt I will recommend this. There are three stories going on simultaneously. The first is a standard thriller of a guy being pursued by crooked cops. The second is the story of Luke trying to comfort Paul as he awaits execution. The third is the story of Paul. Of these it was the third that I was most interested in. Unfortunately, that story is mostly about his youth. It is only 90% through the book that Paul has his conversion on the road to Damascus. I wanted to see the political machinations of the early church and that is barely mentioned.
I found the potential story line intriguing, but had a great deal of difficulty identifying with the characters due to the poor reading, and poor sound quality. There was some background sound, and the recording stopped repeatedly necessitating rewinding to the previous chapter break, and restarting numerous times.
I am not certain.
The voice quality did not enhance the story in anyway. I found the narrator difficult to listen to, unlike many other recordings I have downloaded from Audible.
maybe. as I said the story was intriguing.
"Worth the listen"
I thought the multiple plot lines between modern day and the first century kept my interest in a way any one of them alone could not have. The accuracy of the story with what is historically known was very well handled extremely well and the portrayal of Paul made me think about aspects of his life I had not considered before. A solid story with a good performance.
"Great concept, great execution"
I'm writing a few weeks later, so I'm left with overall impressions at this point. I found this compelling and plausible, so if the idea intrigues you, I think you'll enjoy it.
"Saul, a novel."
Wow! Truly wonderful combination of Scripture and imagination.
Two stories intertwined into this epic.
A great read that captivates you and keeps you listening, especially at the end of each chapter.
Alternating story lines keep it fresh.
The story was okay. The characters were very shallow. Stuff happened and I was supposed to care, but I didn't. Even the supposedly original writings that they were protecting didn't excite me at all. The author didn't really give me a reason to get invested in the story except to say the writings were really important.
"Good story over the centuries"
This was a nice story and was kept me excited throughout. I would have preferred some who spoke better Italian to read because this narrator did not speak Italian well. Overall it was a good story.
"I kept listening into the wee hours of the morning"
It's like a book you just can't put down. I loved it, especially the ending.

ECLAIR SURPRISE has the Singapore International Cup in his sights after posting a third straight win at Sandown on Saturday.
The five-year-old was guided to victory in the group 3 Eclipse Stakes (1800m) by Dom Tourneur, who eased the gelding across the line 1¼ lengths ahead of Tai Tai Tess.
Going into the final feature meeting of the Melbourne spring carnival, Eclair Surprise had won two listed races - the Murray Bridge Gold Cup and the Diamond Jubilee Plate at Flemington.
Adelaide trainer Phillip Stokes said the Hong Kong-owned horse would be spelled before being prepared for his main target in Singapore over 2000 metres next May.
''The horse is in super order,'' Stokes said.
''We took him home after he raced on Tuesday and it turned out to be the right decision.
''He'll go straight to the paddock now and we'll try and get him to the Singapore Cup. That's our goal in May.''
Stokes said Saturday's win would make a Singapore bid much easier.
''This will help him a lot and get his rating up … he's going in the right direction,'' he said.
Stokes said he was confident of clinching a start in the Singapore race and that the horse would be competitive.
''I think the 2000 metres will be ideal,'' he said. ''He travels very well so that won't be a problem.''
Eclair Surprise will run in Adelaide and again in Melbourne in the lead-up to his May target.

NORTHFIELD, IL -- Kraft Foods Inc., which owns Maxwell House and Yuban coffee brands, is lowering its wholesale prices by about 6%.
The cut will trim roughly 20¢ off each pound of Kraft's roast and ground coffees, while making instant coffee about 2¢ cheaper per ounce. Retailers will set the final prices seen by consumers.
Kraft's price cut, announced Aug. 21, follows that of competitor J.M. Smucker, which a week earlier slashed the cost of its Dunkin' Donuts and Folgers packaged lines 6% because of a drop in coffee bean prices. | SEE STORY
Unfavorable weather conditions for growing coffee and high energy costs have pushed prices to multi-decade highs earlier this year. Kraft raised its prices more than 50% over a 15-month period.
But improving conditions led to better harvests. The price cut by Smucker and Kraft is likely to put pressure on rivals such as Starbucks Corp. and Nestlé to follow suit.
Kraft's price cut doesn't include its Gevalia brand or its Tassimo coffee sold in discs used in single-serving machines, a Kraft spokesperson said.

(The Hosting News) – With the Wikileaks hoopla a few years ago and the recent leaking of government documents concerning President Obama allegedly targeting American citizens for assassinations, a lot of attention is now being paid to how and where reporters, bloggers, etc receive the information they use to inform their reports, posts and articles. Nowhere has this been more paralyzing than in the current events/news blogging niche.
It's natural, as a blogger, to worry about what will happen to you if you write a blog post about these leaks or the information contained within them. The reaction to the Wikileaks scandal, in particular, has made more than one news blogger pack up his pixels and run for the pop culture hills. Don't think, though, that you need to follow suit.
Before we go into precedent and legal statute, a cautionary note: if you want to write about something but are worried that writing about that something will get you into some major legal hot water, talk to an attorney. Getting your legal questions answered by a professional prior to publishing is the best course of action when you aren't sure about the legality of something you want to do. Better to ask in advance than be sorry and pay for it later, right?
That said—from what we could find, as long as you come by the information for your blog post legally, there's no reason you can't write about that information. You can speculate, you can offer your own opinions or even just regurgitate the facts as you find them.
This means that it is absolutely legal to, say, read about the Wikileaks scandal in the news and then write a post about it on your own blog. It is okay to offer an opinion about the confidential memos being circulated through the press regarding drone strikes and the targeting of American citizens. Just make sure to properly cite your sources so that, in the event your post does raise a flag somewhere, the flag waver can see exactly where you are getting your information.
Where it gets tricky is if you aren't sure whether or not your source material is legally obtained or not. For example—can you write a blog post about a conversation you heard between two people without those peoples' consent? This is where having a legal expert or attorney from whom you can seek advice is very helpful.
Remember, the First Amendment applies to bloggers too! As long as you haven't broken any laws yourself, you are more than likely allowed to write about whatever you want.

Ask Computer Networking Questions and Get Answers ASAP
Hello and welcome to JustAnswer! My name is XXXXX XXXXX thank you for giving me the opportunity to help you with your networking question.
When you attempt to connect to your network, are you prompted for a password? If so, how many characters in length is the password XXXXX are using?
It certainly shouldn't take that long to connect.
What is the model number of the Actiontec router? It should be printed on the bottom...
I spend a few hours offline in the evening with my family - sorry for the delay.
Let's verify the password...
Use a computer that is connected directly to the router via cable - not a wireless computer. Click this link: http://192.168.1.1
A login prompt will appear. When the router was installed, this was likely written down somewhere - you may also try the default login:
username: admin
password: password
Once logged in, click Wireless Settings at the top of the screen, then Basic Wireless Settings on the left. Rename the SSID - this will be the name of your network - you can name it anything you would like. Save the settings.
Click Advanced Security Settings on the left side of the screen. Change the first option to WPA. You should now see an option labeled PreShared Key. This will be your new wireless password. Enter a password XXXXX at least 8 characters, then save the settings.
The router is now ready - connect your iPad to your new network name and enter your password XXXXX prompted. This will also need to be done with any other wireless devices you use.
If you get stuck or have questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
Okay - when you signed up with Verizon, they should have given you a username and password XXXXX access the internet. This may be called your PPPoE settings.
Do you have this information? If so, I only need to know you have it - please don't post it online...
Perfect - let's reset the router and set it up with a new password. This will also remove the password XXXXX is currently set on the router so you can log in.
Press and hold the reset button on the back of the router for 15 seconds, then release. Restart the computer that is connected to it via ethernet cable.
After the restart, log into the router by opening your browswer and entering this address: http://192.168.1.1/
You may be asked to change the name and password.
Once logged in, click Wireless Settings at the top of the page. Enter a new network name into the SSID box - this will be your new network name. Use something you have not used in the past, then save the settings.
Click Advanced Wireless Settings on the left side of the screen, then change the Level 1 option to WPA. In the Pre-Shared key box, enter a password XXXXX at least 8 characters, then save the settings.
The router is ready - connect your iPad to the new network name you made, then enter the password XXXXX prompted to connect. Any other wireless devices you have will need to connect to the new network as well.

Most records created by Texas state agencies are not copyrighted and may be freely used in any way. State records also include materials received by, not created by, state agencies. Copyright remains with the creator. The researcher is responsible for complying with U.S. Copyright Law (Title 17 U.S.C.).
The Texas Criminal Justice Council was created by an Executive Order of Governor John Connally on October 18, 1968, and later reorganized by Governor Preston Smith, on October 8, 1971, Executive Order 71-5. It was established as a result of the federal Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968. The state needed a planning agency to administer the provisions of this Act in Texas, including state-wide planning and coordination of law enforcement activities, and development of a comprehensive law enforcement or criminal justice plan for the state. The Council was composed of the Governor, who served as chair, several ex-officio members--state administrators in criminal justice related agencies, and several representatives of local governments. These latter members were appointed by the Governor for three-year terms. An Executive Director was also appointed by the Governor. In the mid 1970s, the name of the Council was changed to the Criminal Justice Division Advisory Board.
Duties of the Council were: develop a comprehensive plan for the improvement of criminal justice throughout the state; assist the Governor in criminal justice related matters; develop, review, and recommend criminal justice programs and projects for the state, regional, and local government units; oversee the administration of all programs enacted under the provisions of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968; and assist staff in preparation and passage of criminal justice legislation. A principle component of the Council was its Executive Committee. This committee was composed of ten members from the Council, appointed by the Governor. Duties of the committee were to recommend the funding of planning and action grant applications, recommend the annual criminal justice plan of the Council, appoint subcommittees, and provide support and assistance to the Executive Director and staff of the Council. This staff was administered by the Council's Executive Director, who later became the Executive Director of the Criminal Justice Division.
The Criminal Justice Council/Advisory Board was provided staff from the Office of Criminal Justice Planning, now the Criminal Justice Division, of the Governor's Office. This Office/Division was administered by an Executive Director, appointed by the Governor for an indefinite term. In addition to his administrative duties, the Executive Director provided interpretations of statutes, both for state agencies and the general public involved in law enforcement and criminal justice. In October 1973, the Executive Director appointed an individual as General Counsel, to assist him in providing statute interpretations and in other matters relating to policies and procedures.
Duties of the Criminal Justice Division include or have included: assist the Governor in developing policies, plans, programs, and proposed legislation for improving the criminal justice system; prepare the comprehensive state criminal justice plan; administer the Criminal Justice Planning Fund; administer federal funds (grants) to state agencies, units of local government, and other eligible applicants for programs and projects recommended by the Criminal Justice Council/Advisory Board; and provide assistance, through a federal grant, to parolees seeking employment.
Types of records include correspondence, memorandums, copies of executive orders, executive pardon proclamations, copies of deeds and easements, legal records, studies, reports, and clippings, dating 1973-1990, mainly 1987-1990. The majority of the records are from the office of Rider Scott, Executive Director of the Criminal Justice Division and General Counsel to the Governor during most of Governor William P. Clements' second term. These records include Mr. Scott's general office files as well as specific subject files. The Executive Director files concern policy and administrative procedures of the Criminal Justice Division/Office of the General Counsel. The General Counsel Executive Clemency Files show the governor's and General Counsel's roles in considering requests for pardons, paroles, or commutations. Tort Claim Settlements document the pre-trial agreements reached by the State of Texas with plaintiffs suing the state for damages. Deed, Easements, and Land Patents are types of legal records that involve land transactions between the state and private parties. Grant award correspondence was sent out from Rider Scott informing legislators and their constituents of grants to be awarded them under crime-fighting programs administered by the Criminal Justice Division. The Blue Ribbon Commission on Criminal Justice was a civilian panel created and appointed by Gov. Clements in 1982 during his first administration to study the Texas criminal justice system and the prison overcrowding issue and make recommendations for improvement. Finally, the Criminal Justice Summit was a special forum of criminal justice professionals held in February 1988 and organized by Rider Scott to consider the prison overcrowding crisis. Also diverse are the many topics touched on in these records. Some of the criminal justice issues include prison overcrowding, crime-fighting grants and programs, executive clemency, and analysis of the criminal justice system of Texas. Correspondents include Governor Clements, various state and federal agencies, staff of the Criminal Justice Division and General Counsel's Office, and many other parties involved in legal activities. For related records see other entries of the Texas Criminal Justice Division.
To prepare this inventory, the described materials were cursorily reviewed to delineate series, to confirm the accuracy of contents lists, to provide an estimate of dates covered, and to determine record types.
These records are organized into seven series, and three subseries.

These records were transferred to the Archives and Information Services Division of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission by the Office of the Governor on January 15, 1991.
Paul B. Beck, May 1991
Types of records include correspondence, memorandums, copies of executive orders, studies, reports, copies of laws and regulations, printed materials, clippings, and notes. Records are the general files of Rider Scott, Executive Director of the Criminal Justice Division and General Counsel to the Governor during most of Governor William P. Clements' second administration, 1987-1990. Knox FitzPatrick became General Counsel in 1990 but his files are not included. Mr. Scott also held the position of Executive Director of the Criminal Justice Policy Council during this time period. Files of Deputy General Counsels and staff of the Criminal Justice Division are also present in these records. Files concern the establishment of policies and procedures, interpretation of statutes, existing and proposed legislation, budgets and audits, federal funding, grants, gubernatorial appointments, contract analysis, deeds of cession and easements, and requests for pardons and other acts of executive clemency. Specific topics include alcohol and drug abuse block grants, criminal justice, crime-fighting campaigns, emergency management of environmental disasters, energy surveys and management, prison overcrowding, juvenile justice, open records requests, and the pope's visit to Texas in 1987. Correspondents include Governor Clements; his chief of staff, Mike Toomey; heads of various state and federal agencies; and staff of the Criminal Justice Division and General Counsel's Office. Included in these files are copies of executive orders from Governor Dolph Briscoe from 1973 to 1979 and Governor Mark White from 1983 to 1987.
Files are oriented by either subject or proper name and are arranged as received, in a very rough alphabetical sequence. Researchers are strongly advised to look at all the box and folder listings when searching for a specific topic.
Records present in this series include correspondence, executive orders and proclamations, and legal records, covering the years 1978-1990. These records concern the roles of the governor and the Office of the General Counsel in the criminal justice system. Most records involve the use of executive clemency: the governor's powers, or lack of, to pardon or commute criminal sentences. Others concern the execution of death row inmates.
These records are organized into three sub-series:
Records consist of original incoming correspondence received by the Office of the General Counsel and copies of its outgoing replies, dating 1989-1990. Most of the correspondence comprises requests to the governor for pardons and paroles. The General Counsel staff replied that requests for pardons or paroles begin with the Board of Pardons and Paroles and that the governor acted on their recommendations. Therefore, the correspondents were referred to the Board on Pardons and Paroles, which in 1990 became the Department of Criminal Justice-Parole Division. Other correspondence on criminal justice topics addressed to the Governor and handled by the General Counsel include protests against specific individuals getting paroled, use of the death penalty, the location of parole halfway houses in neighborhoods, crimes committed by parolees, victims of domestic violence being imprisoned, and the rising crime rate. A small portion of the correspondence concerns other legal topics such as civil judgments against state universities, proposed legislation aiding crime victims, and transferring the responsibility for the care of the Alamo from the Daughters of the Republic of Texas and placing it with the State.
Correspondence is divided chronologically and then arranged alphabetically by name of correspondent.
Records consist of the pardon files submitted to the governor from the Board of Pardon and Paroles and maintained by the Office of the General Counsel from 1987 to 1990. People convicted of crimes who sought pardons and/or restoration of their civil rights initiated such a request with the Board of Pardons and Paroles. The Board examined each request and made a recommendation to the governor. If the governor approved of the Boards' recommendation for a pardon, he would then issue a pardon proclamation. Approved pardon files include recommendation forms from the Board of Pardons and Paroles which usually contain a synopsis of an applicant's arrest and imprisonment record, a copy of the cover letter from the governor to the Board announcing his decision, and copies of the governor's pardon proclamations. These records date from 1987-1989. There is a separate file from 1990 of letters from the governor to the Board rejecting pardon applications.
Record are arranged by last name of the applicant.
Records are the case files of prisoners executed by the State of Texas, Texas Department of Corrections, kept by the Office of the General Counsel, Governor's Office, dating 1978-1990. The General Counsel kept track of each condemned prisoner's case for the governor as it moved through the judicial process including all appeals to the governor for commutations or stays of execution. All prisoners represented in these files were eventually executed. These case files concentrate on the facts and legal history of each case. Records include memos in the Office of General Counsel covering the status of reprieves and commutation requests, legal appeals, recommendations for execution, and execution summaries. Legal records include copies of trial court judgments, appellate court opinions, stays of executions, and denials of writs of certiorari from the U.S. Supreme Count. Some files include execution case summaries prepared by the staff of the Board of Pardons and Paroles that give a detailed history of the case and may contain copies of arrest records, confessions, and other police reports. Other background materials may include correspondence from the prisoners and newspaper clippings on their cases. There are no medical records or psychological profiles present. Additional execution case files, dating 1954-1964, can be found in the records of the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles.
Records are filed alphabetically.
Records include correspondence, memos, court records, and copies of the vouchers paying the settlements that range in date from 1978-1982 and 1990. Records document settlements reached with plaintiffs who had filed lawsuits based on tort claims against the State of Texas. Frequently, the Attorney General would negotiate with the plaintiff before going to trial to reach a proposed settlement. The governor had to approve the payment of each settlement. To assist the governor, the Office of the General Counsel reviewed the proposed settlements from the Attorney General, made its recommendation to the governor, and retained copies of some of the records for their files. Correspondence and memos include incoming correspondence from state agencies informing the Attorney General about tort claims; from the Attorney General to the Governor analyzing pending cases and judgments rendered; from the General Counsel to the governor's Chief of Staff recommending courses of action and payment; and from the General Counsel to the Comptroller authorizing payment. Records from 1978-1982 mostly include cover memos and vouchers. Records from 1990 have more detailed legal materials and settlements packets that include Attorney General's correspondence, General Counsel Office memos, and signed vouchers.
Settlements from 1978-1982 are in chronological order; settlements from 1990 are in alphabetical order according to the name of the state agency.
Types of records include copies of deeds and easements; certified copies of the minute orders approving the transaction by the Texas State Highway and Public Transportation Commission; correspondence and memos of the General Counsel with the Governor's Office, Attorney General, Highway Department, Department of Corrections, and General Land Office; and sketches and maps of the property, dating 1978-1983. Deeds, easements, and land patents are types of legal instruments that convey an interest or title to land. In this series these types of records document land transfers involving the state of Texas. If the state was receiving, granting or transferring a land title, or allowing access across public land, the governor had to sign and execute a deed, easement or patent. Before the governor signed, however, the Office of the General Counsel received the paperwork, reviewed it, and arranged for the governor's signature. Land transactions represented in this series originated in various state agencies including the Department of Highways and Public Transportation, the Department of Corrections (now part of the Department of Criminal Justice), and the General Land Office. For example, in a quitclaim deed situation the state of Texas, acting through the Department of Highways and Public Transportation, relinquishes, or quitclaims, the state's interest in parcels of land or right-of-way. The Attorney General then prepares a cover letter for the governor that states the number of quitclaim instruments, the grantees, and the county in which the land is located. Frequently included is a memo from a highway department engineer describing the transaction and the reason it is recommended. The General Counsel verifies this information, prepares a summary of the transaction, and makes a recommendation for the governor to sign. Other types of deeds and legal instruments related to land have a similar paperwork trail. The General Counsel coordinated the signing by the governor of all of these types of documents. Patents are not included in these records.
Records are arranged chronologically.
Records consist of outgoing correspondence from Rider Scott, executive director of the Criminal Justice Division, notifying recipients of crime-fighting grants awarded under programs administered by the Criminal Justice Division, dating 1987-1988. Award notices were sent to Texas state senators and representatives notifying them of approved grants for criminal justice projects in their legislative districts. Statements of awards were also sent to agencies and local officials impacted by the grant. Grant programs were intended to address a broad range of concerns: from working with juveniles to crime-prevention projects to training of law enforcement officers. Particular programs include Victims of Crime Act (VOCA) Assistance, Child Abuse Counseling, Crime Prevention/Neighborhood Watch, Rape Crisis/Women's Centers, and the Texas Narcotics Control Program. Much of the funding for these programs came from federal grants. Award letters are divided into statements of awards sent to local officials and award notices sent to representatives and senators.
Records are arranged chronologically.
Records consist of minutes, agenda, meeting materials, correspondence, memos, draft recommendations, and copies of the executive order creating the Blue Ribbon Commission for the Comprehensive Review of the Criminal Justice Corrections System. Most of the correspondence is outgoing from Chairman Lipshy. Correspondents include Governors Clements, other members of the Commission, state agency officials, and organizations invited to address their concerns to the commission. Records cease in January 1983. No copies of the commission's reports on prison overcrowding or its long-range recommendations are present in the records.
The commission was created by Governor Clements via executive order WPC-45 on June 10, 1982 and charged to 1) develop a master plan to carry the state's corrections system into the twenty-first century; 2) conduct a comprehensive review and evaluation of the state's criminal justice system including prison overcrowding, review of criminal laws, deterrents to criminal behavior, pre-trial and pre-sentencing alternatives, and confinement and release alternatives; and 3) make recommendations to the Governor's Office for necessary legislation or action to promote the purpose of the commission. The commission was to consist of not more than twenty members, all appointed by the governor. Governor Clements appointed Bruce A. Lipshy as chairman. The working title of the commission was the Blue Ribbon Commission on Criminal Justice. The commission held regular meetings and several public hearings to identify issues in its evaluation of the Texas criminal justice system. Four functional committees were established: Classification and Facilities; Diversions and Inmate Programs; Laws, Courts and Governments; and, Release and Linkages. The Commission made an initial report in January 1983 on ways to relieve prison overcrowding. A long-range report with recommendations on the entire criminal justice system was due later in 1983.
Records are arranged chronologically.
Records include correspondence, memos, lists of participants, program brochures, press release, background materials, and a summit packet from 1987 to 1988. The Criminal Justice Summit was a forum held in February 1988 and designed to address jail and prison overcrowding in Texas. It was made possible by a grant from the Bureau of Justice Assistance, United States Department of Justice. The summit included all state criminal justice agencies and was assisted by the Governor's Office, the Board of Pardons and Paroles, the Texas Department of Corrections, and the Criminal Justice Policy Council. The purpose of the summit was to assess the impact of corrections policies in Texas in relation to the overcrowding in state and local correctional institutions. The summit focused on developing short-term and intermediary strategies to relieve prison overcrowding. It also considered long-term solutions which would require action by the Texas Legislature. The summit participants considered fact finding reports, heard technical assessments from criminal justice and public policy experts, and met in focus groups to deliberate and reach a consensus. The resulting recommendations were printed in a final report. Records are from Rider Scott, head of Criminal Justice Division, Governor's Office, one of the key organizers of the summit.
Records are arranged chronologically.

Kingsmen Nearly Take Down Redlands
CLU falls 1-0
REDLANDS, Calif. -- The Cal Lutheran men's soccer team ripped off 19 shots against Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) first place Redlands but couldn't find the back of the net as the Bulldogs escaped with a 1-0 victory Saturday night.
Despite the barrage of shots, Jack Duncan kept CLU in the game throughout, coming up with seven saves on 24 Bulldogs shots.
The Kingsmen nearly broke through in the 33rd minute when Jimmy Carter, who was playing in his first game for Cal Lutheran, fired a shot on goal that Redlands goalkeeper Dylan Ochoa was able to deflect out of bounds for a CLU corner-kick. Salvador Orozco sent in the corner and Ivan Sanchez was able to get a foot on it but his shot sailed wide right and Redlands remained unscathed.
After finishing the first half tied at 0-0, Redlands got the eventual game-winner from Matej Kustara 15 minutes into the second half.
Nick Baldi, Jorge Galvan and Sanchez all got shots on goal in the final minutes but Ochoa came up big in the end, finishing with eight saves and help Redlands to a crucial conference win.
Sanchez led CLU with five shots while Logan Cone and Orozco each had three. Kyle Fleming had a shot on goal as did Thiago Gaglianone.
With the win, Redlands improves to 8-2 overall as well as in the SCIAC.
Despite the loss, Cal Lutheran (8-3-2, 6-2-2) remains in third place of the SCIAC standings. The Kingsmen will be back in action next Monday, Oct. 14, when it squares off with second-place Claremont-Mudd-Scripps. Kickoff in Claremont is set for 7:00pm.

As the Blaze offense continues to work out the kinks, it's been the defense that has kept the team afloat. In fact, it's been the defense that has dominated offenses over the course of the last four games.
Nineteen turnovers. Eight turnovers on downs. The Utah defense, after being torched early on in the season, has finally figured it out.
"I felt we've had that ability," said Blaze coach Ron James. "If we can get the offense on track on the way it was last year, those landslide wins can return."
But, per usual, the defense has its hands full this week as the Blaze (4-4), head to the Bay Area to take on division rival San Jose (6-2). It is the first of a three-game road trip that Utah must win to get its division record, currently at 1-2, back to .500.
"It's going to be a game that is really going to test us," James said.
Since handing the quarterback reins over to Russ Michna, the Sabercats have won four straight games. Michna's numbers during the streak include 20 touchdowns on 949 yards passing and just two interceptions.
But James said the defense will be ready.
"I think we're finally at a point where the front line and coverage group are playing together," he said.
Utah's defense will be tested. Linebacker Joe Mortensen is out with a hamstring injury and defensive line star Caesar Rayford recently signed with the Indianapolis Colts.
"I'm nothing but excited for him," James said, "but those are big shoes to fill."

Para Cord Sling
3 Attachment(s)
Over on the 458socomforum a member makes slings out of para cord. I hadn't gotten around to getting a sling for my AR's and I really don't have any retail stores close enough with a selection to check some out. So I ponied up a few bucks and bought one and it came in the mail today.
I have to say it is well worth the money. The cord weaving is tight and the hardware is very stout. I installed it on my AR15 and the fit was excellent. Here's a few pics of the new sling,

Today I presented at the Argentine Library Association Conference about ebooks in US Libraries, thanks to an invitation from the American Embassy (in Buenos Aires) Information Resource Center. Â I offered information about purchasing and accessing eBooks and about lending eReaders in libraries. Â But, I learned quite a bit in return! Â For example, no one who attended my presentation (about 80 librarians) offered ebooks in their library. Â Also, only 2 of the attendees owned an eReader (one Kindle and one iPad if you are counting). Â Why? Â There just are not many Spanish language eBooks available for libraries and the format has not become as popular yet. Â I expect this will change soon, as more publishers offer eBooks and US publishers move into the South American market. Continue reading Argentine Library Association Conference -eBook Highlights

Print alive and well at the Buenos Aires Book Fair
Today I had my first glimpse of the Buenos Aires Book Fair (Feria del Libro). I've never attended a book fair, so it was very exciting to see the rows and rows of publishers and other information providers with their booths and offerings. It is similar to an ALA conference exhibit, but the focus here is truly on books! Publishers have shelves and boxes of printed books for sale during the book fair and are expecting over 1 million visitors during the 3 week event. According to my local host, Jorge Rodriguez, Director of the Information Resource Center (IRC) at the US Embassy in Buenos Aires, the fair attracts the people of Argentina and surrounding areas, not just publishers.  It is such a cultural event for the people of Argentina, who are very attached to reading and books.  The love of books is apparent while walking around the city of Buenos Aires – independent bookstores are on every street!
The IRC of the US Embassy in Buenos Aires also has a booth at the fair and their theme is the evolution of the book. They have a variety of print sources, but are also displaying ebook readers and tablet devices as well. Their booth is all white, with flowing white canvas pieces hanging from floor to ceiling. From a distance, it reminds me of book pages turning in the breeze.
More to follow, including pictures!
NSR is headed to the 33rd Buenos Aires International Book Fair
On Sunday I'm headed to Buenos Aires to attend the Buenos Aires International Book Fair, and in particular, the Argentine Library Association Annual Conference. I'm very excited to have this opportunity to learn more about libraries, publishing and eBooks in Argentina and South America. While there, I will be presenting a couple of session on ebooks in US libraries and reference services in academic libraries. I hope to share some of what I learn about ebooks in South America on the blog, particularly information on the US Embassy Information Resource Centers. Stay tuned for more information, photos, and perhaps an audio interview.

Facebook at work: Employers worry about productivity
FARGO, N.D. - Jeff DeLoss, a business analyst at Noridian Administrative Services in Fargo, can't log on to Facebook at his work computer. Company policy does not allow access to social networking sites on company time.
"I guess I don't mind it," he said about the policy, "because I can see room for a lot of misuse on company time."
But at the bottom of work e-mails DeLoss receives from human resources staff, there is a link to "Find us on Facebook," intended for external recipients. When DeLoss tries to click on it from his work computer, he gets a message that access to the site is restricted.
This is just one example of the tough spot businesses find themselves in when it comes to social networking sites in the workplace.
These websites, which include Facebook, MySpace, Twitter and LinkedIn, can be powerful tools for marketing, recruiting and hiring. At the same time, they can be a big time waster for employees.
Companies that allow access to Facebook lose an average of 1.5 percent in total employee productivity, according to results of a study by Nucleus Research Inc., which provides investigative information technology research.
Of those accessing the site at work, 87 percent could not define a clear business reason to do so. The 2009 study also found that some employees used Facebook up to two hours a day at work.
In many ways, though, social networking sites are no different than the break room, water cooler or desk phone: potential distractions that need to be managed.
Productivity a concern
Several local businesses are considering policies and procedures dealing with employee access to social media, said Karen Witzel, president of the Fargo-Moorhead Human Resource Association.
Their biggest concern is employee productivity, she said.
Darrin Tonsfeldt, director of the Village Business Institute in Fargo, understands the concern about wasted employee time. He also can imagine other problems social networking sites could contribute to: cyber bullying, privacy and security concerns and a rift between technology savvy and clueless employees.
But Tonsfeldt increasingly believes employers need to find ways to use social media to their advantage.
"I think it's like trying to hold back tidal water. You're not going to hold it back," he said.
'Anxious discussions'
Some Red River Valley employers already have policies for social networking sites.
SEI, a call center services company in Grand Forks and Fargo, has never allowed access, said Michele Thiel, human resources manager for SEI and Ygomi, its parent company.
"We're looking at balancing productivity as well as bandwidth," Thiel said. "Quite a few people, if they feel they want to access Facebook, they do it on their personal cell phone. As long as they're productive and meet their job requirements, that's the main thing."
The rules are pretty loose at Fargo's Microsoft campus, said Katie Hasbargen, communications manager. Access is not blocked because it can be difficult to separate personal and business use of social media accounts.
"The basic overriding policy is: Be smart," Hasbargen said. "Make sure it's clear you're representing your own views and not the company's when making comments. Be mindful of what's proprietary and confidential."
MeritCare in Fargo allows internal access to social networking sites to employees whose work focuses on communication and collaboration, said Craig Hewitt, a senior vice president and chief technology officer for Sanford Health-MeritCare.
"We've got about 18,000 employees, and we probably allow access to a little under 1,000 folks," Hewitt said. "It's a fairly select group."
MeritCare is currently evaluating its policy, he said. "Those restrictions will be eased as we make sure we can protect the privacy of patients and secure access."
Hewitt said it's a matter of being realistic. Employees with Internet-capable cell phones can already access the sites, which are becoming a more popular way for employees to communicate.
"I think every technology, as it becomes available, probably goes through this same series of anxious discussions with folks who are in leadership positions," Hewitt said.
Harnessing the power
Business leaders and human resources professionals need to understand the influence of social media and how to harness it, said Ryan Estis, a Minneapolis-based speaker and business performance consultant.
Social media was part of a daylong workshop he recently offered in Fargo.
Estis believes companies that ban access to social media are missing out on an opportunity to create more connections.
"The reality is, the way to connect, communicate and collaborate in workplaces is undergoing a significant transformation," Estis said. "Fundamentally, people expect to be able to use these tools to connect and network."
Having a policy will provide employees with guidance on proper use of the sites during work hours.
Estis said 29 percent of U.S. companies have a policy governing social network sites, just as most companies have policies on the use of the Internet and e-mail. Based on anecdotal research, he believes about half of those companies ban access and half allow some or complete access to sites.
Having a written policy is key, said Witzel of the F-M human resource group.
"How can you do any sort of disciplinary action if you don't have your policy spelled out?" she asked.
Sara McGrane, a Minneapolis attorney originally from Fargo, recently gave a presentation to local human resources staff titled "Googling My Facebook Makes Me Twitter." Part of her presentation offered a sample policy that local companies could enact.
"In the last 18 months, we have had a dramatic increase in the number of questions we've gotten about social media," said McGrane, whose specialty is employment law.
The sample policy's wording respects the employee's right to use social media during nonwork hours, but demands that employees protect the privacy and reputation of the employer. Employees should have no expectation of privacy while using their work computers, the policy reads.
"I think a lot of people realize they're going to look at it," McGrane said. "We just have to limit the amount of time."
Social media plays role in hiring, firing
Another place where social media and the workplace intersect is its role in hiring, firing and discipline, said Sara McGrane, a Minneapolis employee who specializes in employment law.
Employers often look at Facebook profiles and other social media sites when they consider a job applicant. This can be a great reference check, McGrane said.
But employers have to be careful not to make decisions based on information the employee set as private, she said.
"If the information is publicly available and the employee puts it out there publicly, then the employer does have the right to use it," McGrane said.
But if the employer gains access to the information through a third party, the company may violate laws on electronic data.
"The person didn't want that information to be shared. In those instances, we tell employers not to consider it," she said.
McGrane's advice to employees: "Be careful who your friends are. If you're going to be friends with your boss, be aware they can use that information. As long as you didn't voluntarily give that person access, you're fine."
Here are some of the popular social networking websites:
Founded in February 2004. Claims more than 400 million active users who "friend" one another.
Launched in January 2004. Has more than
113 million monthly active users worldwide.
Microblogging site founded in 2006. Users post 140-character "tweets."
Professional network with more than 65 million members. Founded in May 2003.

Am I PMS ing or does anyone else find Rachel Ray psychotically perky?
The woman is too freaking happy all the fuckingtime. I understand that it's her job and all to seem friendly, but come on. You know that sometimes she just had a really crappy day and would much rather come out on stage and tell everyone to just microwave some damn popcorn for dinner for all she cares. But she doesn't, and I really don't think it's all the free Dunkin' Donuts coffee or her Yum-O Sammies made with EVOO that are helping her muddle on through.
I think it's something else.
I say there's a recipe she's not giving us.
I say she's got the good stuff and she's not sharing.
I think she's cooking up a little crystal meth in the basement.

South Florida Business Journal, November 7, 2012
A group of 12 physicians at Boca Raton Regional Hospital (BRRH) signed a collaborative care agreement with Aetna's Medicare Advantage that would reward them with financial incentives to improve patient care. Similar collaborative agreements are being established around the country to link medical provider performance to pay. This is one of 62 such deals Aetna has made nationwide. Aetna and the doctors at nonprofit BRRH will share data with the goal of improving patient outcomes and efficiency of treatment. They will use the ActiveHealth CareEngine System to monitor patient information.

Catcher Michael Collins has 67 hits to lead the Quakes and has been among league leaders in average most of the year until a recent slump. The 21-year-old Australian has a .299 average and 15 extra-base hits on the year.
Shortstop Sean Rodriguez, a third-round draft pick in 2003, has a team-high 10 home runs to support a .476 slugging percentage that also leads the Quakes. The right-handed hitter got off to a blistering start in April before cooling down a bit last month.
The Cal League has squared up with the Carolina League in 10 of the last 11 seasons, including the first matchup which was hosted by the Quakes in 1996. This season, the team will be managed by Lenn Sakata, who will have four of his own San Jose Giants players on the roster.
