Adapted from SSA Publication No. 05-10153, January 2008, ICN 480165.
This is a very good article which explains, in common language, the reason for the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP). WEP may be called "double dipping" in common terms.
The article also gives an overview of how Social Security provides a better "rate of return" to low income workers.
Excerpts :
But in a nutshell, I can tell you that Maria's $1,150 benefit represents about 90 percent of her average lifetime monthly wage. Whereas Frank's $2,400 Social Security check is probably about 40 percent of his average monthly pre-retirement income.
Here's a good overview of Social Security disability which answers the following questions :
Who does the SSA consider disabled?
What is the SSA's definition of disability?
What evidence does the SSA require to prove my medical condition?
What if my medical condition is not in the Blue Book?
Does the SSA have any other requirements for disability benefits?
What if I am able to earn a small income?
If I am unable to work, am I guaranteed disability benefits?
In the 1970s and earlier, prisoners were able to receive Social Security benefits. However, nowadays, people convicted of a crime and doing time in prison in general can not receive Social Security benefits.
Excerpt :
Or to be more precise, benefits are suspended if someone is convicted of a criminal offense and sent to jail or prison for more than 30 continuous days. Notice that conviction is the key. Lots of people end up in jails while they are awaiting trial or pleas. But until there is a conviction with prison time involved, benefits will continue.
New Medicare cards will replace your "old" Medicare number, which was most likely your Social Security number, with a new 11-digit Medicare number.
You should receive your new card by mail by April, 2019.
Social Security Disability back pay is an amount owed to you which was not paid during your disability determination period. This is a one-time payment which you'll generally receive 3-4 months after your regular disability payments start.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 4/8/2014 (1109 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
MICHAEL Johns, the rock 'n' soul singer and Australian heartthrob who was a fan favourite on Season 7 of Fox's American Idol, has died.
The Hollywood Reporter and other news outlets say Johns, 35, died Friday from a blood clot in his ankle.
"Our family is devastated by the passing of our beloved Michael, a wonderful husband, son, brother, uncle and friend," the singer's family said in a statement Saturday. "We appreciate the outpouring of love and support we have received from all corners of the globe. Please keep Michael in your thoughts and respect our need to grieve privately in this difficult time."
Johns is the first Idol finalist to die since the Fox show launched in 2002.
In 2008, he finished eighth on the singing competition in a shocking elimination that was cited by producers as one of the reasons Idol introduced the "judges' save" the following season.

text: NIKE, Inc. (NYSE:NKE) today released its FY12-13 Sustainable Business Performance Summary, providing an update on performance against current business, labor and environmental goals as the company works toward its goal of decoupling profitable growth from constrained resources. The report, which outlines both successes and challenges, shows NIKE is making progress across key impact areas of climate and energy, labor, chemistry, water, waste and community. Evidence of the company's progress includes an absolute reduction of carbon emissions of close to 3 percent across the whole value chain from its FY11 baseline, while revenue grew 26 percent over the same period. Production also grew while the company fulfilled its strategic aim to source from fewer, better-performing contract factories, with a 14 percent reduction – from 910 to 785 factories over the last two years. Some of the challenges in the industry include the rate at which environmentally preferred materials are becoming available at competitive pricing in the market and the rate at which the market adopts new green technologies. In addition, NIKE continues to focus on ways to drive ongoing improvements where significant previous reductions have already been realized. The report also outlines the company's approach to understanding and addressing the meta-trends facing business. In addition, NIKE provides a transparent 'big-picture' view of the impacts across its entire value chain, from growing and processing materials to a product's end of life, and the steps of manufacturing, transport, distribution and selling in between. The report shows how the company is focusing on innovating in the areas where the greatest impacts of its business lie, including materials and manufacturing. "NIKE's success as a growth company is tied directly to our culture of innovation. Today we believe that sustainable innovation that benefits the athlete, the company and the planet will play a key role in the future of our business," writes NIKE, Inc. President and CEO, Mark Parker, in the report's introduction. "We believe business has a critical role to play in meeting the challenges of a changing world – addressing climate change, preserving the earth's constrained resources, enhancing global economic opportunity – not by reducing growth but by redefining it."

Three decades of Maori development to be recognised

Three decades of Maori development to be recognised by Massey University
Massey University is to play host to an important conference in September this year, thirty years after the first Māori economic summit.
The Māori Economic Summit Conference or Hui Taumata was convened in 1984. The conference gave impetus to a Māori-focused economy, and brought together Māori from across the country to discuss economic challenges and new directions for Maori development.
Māori business experts and academics who are highly regarded internationally will debate the challenges and opportunities ahead for New Zealand as a nation, and how Māori can balance economic, social, cultural and environmental dimensions for the current and future generations at the Te Pae Roa 2040 conference.
The agenda for Te Pae Roa 2040 will explore a range of future-focused issues including the relationship between Iwi development and whānau wellbeing, and the balance between economic, social, cultural and environmental management.
Assistant Vice-Chancellor (Māori, Pasifika and New Migrants) Dr Selwyn Katene says the conference is an important event for Māori.
"The conference will play a key part in shaping the focus for Māori as we move towards 2040 – the bi-centennial anniversary of the Treaty of Waitangi. Massey University is pleased to connect Māori to provide a platform to shape strategic pathways for the future."
Emeritus Professor Sir Mason Durie agrees. "The challenges over the next three decades will be quite different from those over the previous thirty years. But the experiences and gains made since 1984 will provide strong foundations for charting a course relevant to the years ahead."
The Te Pae Roa 2040 conference will be held at Massey University's Albany campus from September 3 – 4. Over the two days a number of speakers will discuss where Māori want to be in the year 2040, with a focus on economic, social, cultural and environmental topics.
Since the inaugural conference in 1984, two anniversary conferences have continued the discussion. The first was held in 1994 and hosted by Massey, and again in 2005, hosted by Victoria University in conjunction with the Ministry of Māori Affairs.
For information on how to register to attend the conference visit http://www.tepaeroa2040.co.nz

82F (warm) and 8 miles in 1:10:27 or so. Forgot to mention, caught and released 15" gopher snake in middle of path - set him to the side to keep him out of harms way...
6 mile mtn bike ride on the railtrail. Riding doesn't effect my achilles so I'm using it as a way to cross train. 2.5 miles into today's ride I almost hit a porcupine who decided at the last minute to turn into me just as I was trying to go around him.
Rich - Isn't that what porcupines do? I remember driving in the mountains shortly after HS graduation and seeing porcupine in middle of the road. He just turned around and we swerved to avoid him...they're not too bright...
5+ miles this morning with co-worker 48+ minutes, 66F and 78% humidity. Think I prefer a "dry-heat"...
3.75 miles around town this evening, pretty humid too. First run since Saturday's 50k. Legs felt fine, no soreness, etc. Just took my time & ultra-jogged it. No snakes to be seen on this run.
I tried a "tentative" run yesterday but shut it down after a couple hundred yards. My achilles was pain free when I started out, but still doesn't like running.
Anyway, I rode another 6 miler on the mtn bike just to keep moving. No critters to avoid today...lol
Ray, I remember something about porcupines being the only animal a human can catch, so at one time were protected. I guess the line of thinking was if you got lost in the woods and went without food long enough, you'd eat a porcupine... I wonder if you used the quills for toothepicks...lol
8 miles this morning. Warm, humid and cloudy.
Ray - Yes to "dry heat".
Rich - I'm glad that I have a bike to ride where I don't feel like running but do want to get out.
Art in AZ
Mesa, AZ
Back from vacation. The 50K was a disappointment. Didn't train enough this summer, due to obligations elsewhere.
7 miles yesterday, rest day today.
"I'm going off the rails on a crazy train"
Ozzy Osbourne
Chantilly - I hate that, you work so hard for a race and then something happens...or doesn't. I hope the rest of the vacation went well.
Art - I guess I sweated enough on Wed that I couldn't get the Garmin to stop for almost a minute. You could see the sweat on the button...
Rich - They're little demons, I'll stay clear even if I'm hungry...
adkkev - I don't see too many snakes, that's why I catch them
8.1 in 81F sunny windy humid - just a grind.
Did 3 miles this morning, cloudy and humid.
8 miles today on the railtrail on my mtn bike. I'll be just riding for a while yet, my achilles has gone on strike from the looks. Yeah Art, I feel the same way about the bike. I'm a runner first, but the bike can be a nice break from running or a legitimate way to cross train when your achilles goes on strike...lol
Chantilly... congratulations on your 50K, no matter what the time. It's ok to feel bad about a race, but you're limited to how long you can kick yourself. Then you have to look at the calender and find the next race to get ready for. Sorry, those are the rules, it's written in the Runner's Handbook...
5 miles this morning. Weather was cloudy, muggy and very humid. Didn't feel bad running but the humidity made it feel like I was working harder.
I took the road bike out today for the first time this year, just 8 miles, but it was good to ride the pavement instead of the loose dirt the railtrail has to offer...
4.25 very muggy miles this morning ... a brief shower in the middle of the run made things a little more comfortable. If rain & sweat soaked clothes ever really let you feel comfortable!
rmcj001 a fellow snake humanitarian, I see. Used to save the garter snakes who got too close to the house by taking them out behind the barn.
NH Runner my next race is next week. Might be more ready for that one. Hope your achilles feels better.
7 miles. Nice here. 65F and partly cloudy.

15 April
Starting at — 20:00 & 22:00
Hall main/small: 1200 / 900 rub.
"Young Lions" is a term that jazz journalists have been using to describe the long list of straight-ahead, acoustic-oriented jazz improvisers who were born in the '60s, '70s, and '80s, and London native Wayne Escoffery is among the many Young Lions who started building his catalog in the early 2000s. Escoffery, who plays post-bop and hard bop, is a tenor saxophonist with a big, full tone; his influences on the tenor have included, among others, John Coltrane, Wayne Shorter, Dexter Gordon, Joe Henderson, and Sonny Rollins. Escoffery plays the soprano sax as a second instrument, and his most obvious inspirations on the soprano include Coltrane and Shorter. But whether he is on the tenor or the soprano, Escoffery has maintained a decidedly straight-ahead perspective that is quite faithful to the spirit of the Young Lion movement.
Although he is originally from Great Britain, he has spent most of his life in the northeastern part of the United States. Born in London on February 23, 1975, Escoffery was only 11 when he left the U.K. with his mother and moved to New Haven, CT in 1986. That year, he joined the New Haven Trinity Boys Choir, and it was also in 1986 that he began studying the tenor sax with saxophonist/clarinetist Malcolm Dickinson. Escoffery left the New Haven Trinity Boys Choir when he was 16, and playing jazz saxophone -- not singing -- became his primary focus. Escoffery was still in his teens when he met the famous alto saxophonist Jackie McLean, who Escoffery has described as a mentor and a major inspiration in his life; Escoffery studied with McLean (who died in 2006) extensively at the Hartt School, a performing arts school in West Hartford. After that, he attended the New England Conservatory in Boston and graduated from that institution with a Masters in 1999 before moving to New York City the following year at the age of 25. Escoffery's visibility in the jazz world continued to increase; in the 2000s, his long list of activities ranged from being a member of trumpeter Tom Harrell's quintet to playing with the Charles Mingus ghost band to touring with veteran drummer Ben Riley's Monk Legacy Septet (a Thelonious Monk tribute band). Escoffery also backed his share of jazz vocalists in the 2000s, including Laverne Butler, Mary Stallings, Carolyn Leonhart, Cynthia Scott and Nancie Banks. Escoffery's first album as a leader, Times Change, was recorded for the German Nagel-Hayer label in early 2001; a second Nagel-Heyer studio date, Intuition, was recorded in 2003. Escoffery's first live album, Veneration, was recorded in 2006 for the Savant label and was followed by a studio session for Savant, Hopes and Dreams, in 2007.
In Moscow Wayne performs with the famous Oleg Butman Trio.


text: This archaeological site is the most extensive on Cancún Island. The archaeological remains date the zone to the late post classic period (1200 - 1500 A.D.) and corresponds architecturally to the east coast style, a contemporary of Tulum, Xel-há, Tankah and San Gervasio. This prehispanic settlement is comprised of 47 structures distributed length-wise along the island. It measures 520 meters from north to south and 70 meters from east to west. The principal cluster or civic ceremonial center is formed by two plazas. Two roadways, which run south and north from this section, are delimited by residential platforms. Archaeological excavations have revealed that the economic activity was based primarily on fishing likewise, numerous imported articles were found such as basalt grinding stones, flint knives and arrow heads, obsidian stones and blades, jade and quartz beads and pendants. These imported materials show how advanced the Mayans were in having developed a commercial trade based upon sea routes along the Caribbean coast, which were disrupted with the arrival of the Spaniards and their eventual conquest of the region.

'Where does the sun go at night? I've always wondered...like where the grass goes during the winter or how the fireflies stay lit. It's silly, I know…I could just look it up in a science book and there it would be…but…when I was a little girl I'd try to catch the sun. When the sun would set, I'd run out of the house and as far as I could before my maman would call me in. Do you think it's silly, Nino?'
Nino hopped onto his bike and stared off into the setting sun.
'Allons-y,' Nino whispered as he held out his hand.
*Allons-y-Let's go.(If this is wrong, I'm sorry. I dont speak french...but I tried!)

Donald Trump supporters and anti-Trump protesters faced off after Trump's Tucson rally on Saturday.
A video clip posted by KVOA-TV reporter Domenica Fuller shows an older male supporter of Trump being attacked by a younger male protester who completely covered the Trump supporter's head from behind with a large Mexican flag.
The Trump supporter got out from under the Mexican flag, yelled at the attacker and then moved away from him.
The attack happened in full view of police who did nothing.
The emboldened protester then held his Mexican flag high and taunted Trump supporters with the flag.

Kate Moss and Jamie Hince Are Scraping By
Good god; what in the world have Kate Moss and Jamie Hince been up to?
One minute the on-again couple are all giggles. The next, like in the pictures above, taken yesterday, they're emerging from Stella's Store in London, looking like they just wrested a badger.
Hince, the 39-year-old guitarist for the Kills, was sporting what looked to be the beginnings of a shiner, along with a mark near the bridge of his schnoz.
Thirty-four-year-old Kate, meanwhile, accessorized her keen outfit with a series of scratches across her cheek.
Was there some kind of dust-up when Moss brought her mother, Linda Rosina, to meet Hince last week?
Whatever the cause, Jamie seemed to have the cure for what ailed him, in the form of a bottle of bubbly in the back of Moss' Rolls Royce.
Which is perhaps not the most sympathetic of moves, when your girlfriend is struggling to maintain her newfound sobriety.
Maybe they were fighting over the bottle.

Parliamentary crossbenchers will try to pre-empt government moves to limit state royalties credited through the mining tax, saying the money can be better used on hospitals and schools.
Independent MP
"There is a problem, there are inconsistencies that still exist," Mr Oakeshott said.
It was also asked to examine state resources royalties and is understood to have recommended putting a limit on the credits available under the minerals resource rent tax.
Any overhaul of the mining tax could spark a fresh war with the miners, which argue that any change would overturn the 2010 agreement that ended a multimillion-dollar campaign against its predecessor – the resources super profits tax.
The proposed change would mean that if states increased royalties, only a set amount would be refundable to miners such as BHP Billiton, Rio Tinto and Xstrata, which were expected to contribute about 90 per cent of what the mining tax was forecast to raise.
Mr Swan is due to meet state counterparts early next month in a first bid to deal with increases in state royalties. If unsuccessful, he will consider action against the states, including withholding grants or federal legislation that deals with royalty credits.
It is not clear whether the GST review, conducted by former premiers
The Queensland government said in September that the royalty rate for coal worth more than $100 a tonne would increase from 10 per cent to 12.5 per cent, while coal worth more than $150 a tonne would face a 15 per cent tax.
From July this year, WA iron-ore royalties rose from 5.25 per cent to 6.5 per cent. A further increase, to 7.5 per cent, is scheduled for July 2013.
The total minerals company tax and royalties take in the past decade has been $124 billion, industry figures showed.

LAKELAND, Fla. – The Saint Leo men's tennis team (17-6) finished-off their postponed match with the No.6-ranked Rollins College Tars (15-8) as they defeated the Tars, 5-3, in the third-place match of the Florida Blue Sunshine State Conference men's tennis championships, Sunday afternoon from the Beerman Tennis Center.
The win is first-ever victory against their conference rival.
Falling in two-of-three doubles matches, the Lions rallied-off four singles win en route to the upset.
The men posted one doubles point at No.3 flight as Aloua Adjenak and Jake Fleischer took down Jeff Morris and Ari Davis, 8-2.
Later, despite Rollins collecting the first singles point, Antoine Raffaelli, the Lions' six-slot player, ousted Bernardo Barroso in straight-sets, 6-1, 6-2. Victor Lozier tied the match at three apiece after downing Malte Christesen, with identical 6-4, 6-4, scores.
Matt Nicholson-Lewis then shocked the No.6-ranked player in country, Jeff Morris, at No.2 singles as he blew past his opponent, 6-3 and 6-1.
Up 4-3, the Lions' Jacobo Gonzalez-Tarrio bounced his opponent, Ari Davis, in the first set, 6-4. With rain looming, the two exchanged points until Davis gained a 5-3 lead in the second set. From that point forward, Saint Leo's four-flight player held and broke Davis' serve to tie the match at five apiece. Moving forward, Gonzalez-Tarrio held one more time to retake the lead, 6-5. With Davis serving, and Gonzalez-Tarrio being challenged with a multitude of delays by his opponent, the Lions' freshman gained a 40-15 advantage on Davis before rain suspended action for the evening.
Arriving on Sunday and only needing one point to secure the win, Jacobo received the Davis serve. After a back-and-forth rally, Davis sent the final stroke of the contest into the net to officially give Saint Leo the win.
Additionally, Aloud Adjenak played remarkable tennis as he took the opening set of his match with the No.2-ranked Lucas Jovita, 7-6.
The Lions now await word on seeding for the NCAA South Region Tournament, which is set to being on Sunday, April 29.

White Women I Always Wanted To Ask "Good Hair Vs. White Hair… What's Up With That?" [Video]
- By Bossip Staff
[ooyala code="lxa3J0ODrARn5uLxyR5YcpqZtVBY1BHE"]
Hair. It's a four-letter word with so much "stuff" behind it you could barely scratch the surface in a two-hour documentary by the same name.
Or is it?
Just how deep is hair for Black women and who made it that way? Plus, do White women have some of the very same hangups we do when it comes to our manes? Check out this final episode of "I Always Wanted To Ask" as we peel back the layers on what hair means to women — Black and White alike.

IRS Should Bar Dark Money Groups From Funding Political Ads, Lawsuit Says
A former Illinois congressional candidate joins forces with Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington to challenge IRS oversight of social welfare nonprofits.
A former Illinois congressional candidate and a government watchdog organization have teamed up to sue the Internal Revenue Service, claiming the agency should bar dark money groups from funding political ads.
The lawsuit, filed on Tuesday by David Gill, his campaign committee and Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, or CREW, is the first to challenge how the IRS regulates political spending by social welfare nonprofits, campaign-finance experts say.
As ProPublica has reported, these nonprofits, often called dark money groups because they don't have to identify their donors, have increasingly become major players in politics since the Supreme Court's Citizens United ruling in early 2010.
Gill, an emergency room doctor who has advocated for health-care reform, including a single-payer plan, was the Democratic candidate for the 13th district in Illinois last year. After a tight race, Gill ended up losing to the Republican candidate by 1,002 votes — a loss the lawsuit blames "largely, if not exclusively," on spending by the American Action Network, a social welfare nonprofit.
It's impossible to say for certain why Gill lost. He had lost three earlier races for a congressional seat.
But the American Action Network, launched in 2010 by former Minnesota Republican Sen. Norm Coleman, played a role. It reported spending almost $1.5 million on three TV commercials and Internet ads opposing Gill, mainly in the weeks right before the election. That was more than any other outside group spent on the race, and more than Gill's principal campaign committee spent on the entire election, according to Federal Election Commission records.
Though Gill had never held public office, the American Action Network ads described him as "a mad scientist" who supported sending jobs to China, channeling money to the failed green-energy company Solyndra, and making a mess out of health care and Medicare.
Gill said he ran into people every day who said they weren't voting for him because of claims he would destroy Medicare.
"I think that certainly the money put forward — they saw that they could have an impact here," Gill said of the American Action Network. "They wanted to put their money where it could make a difference between victory and defeat."
Dan Conston, spokesman for the American Action Network, described CREW as a "left-wing front group" in an email. He said Gill was a "failed candidate with an extreme ideology, looking to blame anyone but himself for losing his fourth-straight congressional election."
Nonprofits like the American Action Network have poured hundreds of millions of dollars into political ads in the last two election cycles. Like super PACs, these groups can accept unlimited donations. But super PACs must identify their donors, allowing voters to see who is behind their messages.
The Gill lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in the District of Columbia, alleges the IRS failed to properly regulate the American Action Network, citing seemingly contradictory definitions the agency has applied to such groups for years.
The statute governing social welfare nonprofits says they should be operated "exclusively" for promoting social welfare. But the IRS paved the way for political spending by these groups by interpreting "exclusively" as meaning the groups had to only be "primarily" engaged in promoting the public good. Some groups have taken this to mean they can spend up to 49 percent of their money on election ads.
The lawsuit claims the IRS' interpretation of the law "is arbitrary, capricious, and contrary to law," and asks for an injunction prohibiting the agency from using it.
Melanie Sloan, CREW's executive director, blamed the IRS for sitting on its hands as social welfare nonprofits have been formed specifically to run negative ads paid for by anonymous donors.
"Now the IRS can explain its deplorable inaction in federal court," she said.
The IRS didn't respond to requests for comment Tuesday. It typically doesn't comment on issues related to individual taxpayers.
The American Action Network has been one of the more controversial dark money groups active in politics. Conston said the American Action Network's primary focus was on non-electoral activities and called the dispute over the group's election spending a "tired long-since settled argument."
In filings to the IRS, the group said it spent $25.7 million in its 2010 tax year. In separate filings to the Federal Election Commission, it reported spending about $19.4 million over the same period on political ads, or about 76 percent of the total expenditures reported to the IRS.
If the group stays on its current schedule, American Action Network won't file its taxes covering the 2012 election until May 2014.

It's about time!
Wish him well.
Good luck, but a suit like that would seem to run up pretty quickly and squarely against Citizens United. To the extent that AAN is a corporation and corporations are considered persons for tax purposes under the law, blocking or even monitoring their spending would be a violation of their Freedom of Expression.
I don't like it, but I don't see any angle that isn't just asking a lower court to overturn the existing Supreme Court decision. I don't imagine it'll end well, on that basis.
John, AAN is a nonprofit social welfare organization. That is a fundamentally different creature than a non regulated corporation. I don't believe they have the right to funnel money given to super PACs which can claim no exemption, so they are on very shaky ground. Probably walking on air.
There's no question that a lot of these inconsistencies resulting from the effective political deadlock of the FEC need to be resolved this year.
Hm. Could be, Daniel. I'm not as familiar with the business end of things, but my understanding has been that every non-human legal entity is a corporation. Those that we don't think of as corporations are corporations that filed for some special tax status.
Does their tax status make them less of a legal "person"? I wouldn't think so, since the non-profit still exists to shelter the administrators from tax ramifications. And if a non-profit is still a person, it's going to be an uphill battle.
Again, this is very much not my field, but it might be more feasible to attack from the opposite angle: Since they're donating to political campaigns, they are not social welfare organizations, and therefore should not be tax exempt.
But that appears to be a very different aim than what the article seems to be reporting.
Even smarter would be the argument that, irrespective of whether corporations are people, they're certainly not citizens. And since we explicitly ban non-citizens from contributing to political campaigns, so too can/should we ban corporations.

Replacing DD-WRT with OpenWRT
January 06, 2012
I have had DD-WRT working on two WRT54GL v1.1 routers for around three years now, without too much in the way of glitches. The WRT54G* series have long been the friends of hackers and enthusiasts, and the superior firmwares out in the community offer a broader feature set than the stock Linksys firmware.
With DD-WRT, however, I consistently ran into the WDS-WPA2 encrypted link failing between the routers. I could link the two without issue using an unencrypted connection, but as soon as the connection was encrypted, it would drop out and not re-establish without a hard reset. In addition, DD-WRT does not appear to have made a new release in some considerable time, so in the interests of an updated firmware, OpenWRT seemed to be the best option.
Having finally got fed up of it (and having a little more time to fix it!) I replaced DD-WRT with OpenWRT Backfire 10.03.1. I used the openwrt-wrt54g-squashfs.bin image for the flashing, and did it using the DD-WRT web interface 'upgrade' function. The routers took a while to come back online afterwards, however have been stable and responsive since.
Once OpenWRT was installed on both, I used the example configs here to configure the routers for WDS-WPA2. I initially set them up with an unencrypted link, and then connected via wired and wireless, pinging both to check the link was up. I then enabled WPA2-PSK on the WDS link, rebooted and repeated the exercise. The pings went through fine, and the link has been robust and solid since - interestingly, though I can't put my finger on what it is, the network seems to perform more quickly than it did previously, though that may be merely psychological!
So, I now have two OpenWRT-powered WRT54GLs, in an encrypted WDS-WPA2 link. One thing to note, the version of the OpenWRT must be the brcm-2.4 build, as the 2.6 kernel does not appear to support the broadcom chips with WDS and WPA at time of writing.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Sometimes NFL franchises have an "Achilles Heel" position. For the Jaguars, it always seems like that problem is actually two positions: pass rusher and wide receiver. Under Dave Caldwell and Gus Bradley, they're trying to make that a thing of the past.
Blake Bortles was an easy pick for this administration at the stadium. They believed Bortles was the best player in the draft, thought he'd be gone as soon as fourth to Cleveland if they waited (after the Jaguars took Bortles, the Browns immediately traded out of that spot, figuring they could get Johnny Manziel later in the first. And they were right) and believed he might be the best quarterback coming out in the next three years. (Including Jameis Winston). While often teams build with a quarterback as the last piece to the puzzle, the Jaguars thought he was too good to pass up, even if he sits for a year.
While they've added to the offensive and defensive lines through free agency, they needed somebody to get open and catch the ball and they knew it. So the priority was wide receiver with their second pick and they knew exactly who they wanted: USC's Marqise Lee. Problem was, they had the 39th pick overall, the 7th selection in the second round and with Lee being projected as a potential first rounder, they didn't figure he'd be there.
"I've told Gus to be ready to take somebody in the second round that he's going to be surprised is still there," GM Dave Caldwell said last week. He turned out to be prophetic because while Lee was available when the second round started, they didn't figure he'd be there long. "We tried to trade up to get him," Caldwell admitted. "But the price was too steep."
But in a bit of luck, and sometimes you need that, Lee was passed over by the teams in front of the Jaguars and was sitting there when they were on the clock in the second round. "I like his breakaway speed, his big play capability," Head Coach Gus Bradley said. Apparently Lee has a bit of a chip on his shoulder, thinking he should have been taken higher. It's an attitude the Jaguars want to take advantage of right away.
So as the second round waned and the third round rolled through, the Jaguars kept looking at Penn State's Allen Robinson, and wondering why he wasn't taken. "We had Lee and Allen ranked back to back on our board, but never thought we'd be able to get both of them," Caldwell said after selecting Robinson with the 61st overall pick. So in a matter of about an hour and a half, the Jaguars think they solved their wide receiver situation that hasn't been the same since Jimmy and Keenan retired.
Lee is a speedy, explosive, stretch-the-field player who scored 29 touchdowns in three years at Southern Cal. Robinson is tall, 6'2" and big with good body skills who can win jump balls and still get down the field. The Jaguars were hoping Matt Jones would be that guy, but we all know how that turned out. In fact, they've never really had anybody at that position like Robinson, a two time Big 10 receiver of the year. Maybe Ernest Wilford, but nobody this talented.
When it comes to Justin Blackmon, Caldwell said "We're moving on this year," when it comes to the suspended wide receiver. Bradley says he feels a little empty because it hasn't worked out the way he hoped. Blackmon is suspended by the league and would have to be re-instated before the Jaguars can have any contact with him.
That leaves pass rush, and perhaps they think they've addressed that in the short term through free agency. Ziggy Hood, Chris Clemons and Red Bryant will get an immediate chance to have an impact on the Jaguars sack total.
So late in the third round, the Jaguars saw a player they had valued pretty high who was going to come off the board. So using some of their extra picks, they traded them to the Patriots to select Brandon Linder. At 6'6" and 319, Linder started 42 of 49 games at the University of Miami and played two years with Jaguars offensive coordinator Jedd Fish at the U. He's played, center, guard, tackle and tight end during his career and is projected to play guard in the NFL.
They're pretty happy at the stadium, amazed that the players they've wanted have fallen to them and the others they liked were available. So far, these guys running the Jaguars have proven to be smart, thorough, aggressive and a little bit lucky.
Not a bad combination.

I say go for it. If they want to dance around and put a Ten Commandments statue at the Capitol and find a "loophole", let that loophole get exploited and be fair.
OKLAHOMA CITY - Republican lawmakers in Oklahoma may have unwittingly opened the door to a satanic statue when they approved a Ten Commandments monument for the Statehouse steps.
A spokesman for the New York-based Satanic Temple notified the state's Capitol Preservation Commission that it wants to donate a statue to go next to the Ten Commandments monument. It's planning to submit one of several possible designs this month. Spokesman Lucien Greaves says one potential design involves a pentagram.
The Legislature authorized the privately funded Ten Commandments monument in 2009. It was placed on the Capitol grounds last year, although legal experts questioned its constitutionality. The Oklahoma chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union has filed a lawsuit.
But Greaves says the move opened up a public space for the satanic group.
The opening line had so much awesome potential.
OKLAHOMA CITY - Republican lawmakers in Oklahoma may have unwittingly opened the door to a satanic...
Problem is, you risk antagonizing groups that might start to become more 'militant'. I mean I understand the need to do so, to promote fairness and demonstrate the separation between church and state, but still.

New American Standard Bible (NASB)
The Ten Commandments
20 Then God spoke all these words, saying,
2 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of [a]slavery.
3 You shall have no other gods [b]before Me.
4 You shall not make for yourself [c]an idol, or any likeness of what is in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the water under the earth. 5 You shall not worship them or serve them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and the fourth generations of those who hate Me, 6 but showing lovingkindness to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments.
7 You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not [d]leave him unpunished who takes His name in vain.
8 Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a sabbath of the Lord your God; in it you shall not do any work, you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant or your cattle or your sojourner who [e]stays with you. 11 For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth, the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day; therefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day and made it holy.
12 Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be prolonged in the land which the Lord your God gives you.
13 You shall not murder.
14 You shall not commit adultery.
15 You shall not steal.
16 You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
17 You shall not covet your neighbors house; you shall not covet your neighbors wife or his male servant or his female servant or his ox or his donkey or anything that belongs to your neighbor.
18 All the people perceived the [f]thunder and the lightning flashes and the sound of the trumpet and the mountain smoking; and when the people saw it, they trembled and stood at a distance. 19 Then they said to Moses, Speak [g]to us yourself and we will listen; but let not God speak [h]to us, or we will die. 20 Moses said to the people, Do not be afraid; for God has come in order to test you, and in order that the fear of Him may [i]remain with you, so that you may not sin. 21 So the people stood at a distance, while Moses approached the thick cloud where God was.
22 Then the Lord said to Moses, Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, You yourselves have seen that I have spoken [j]to you from heaven. 23 You shall not make other gods besides Me; gods of silver or gods of gold, you shall not make for yourselves. 24 You shall make an altar of earth for Me, and you shall sacrifice on it your burnt offerings and your peace offerings, your sheep and your oxen; in every place where I cause My name to be remembered, I will come to you and bless you. 25 If you make an altar of stone for Me, you shall not build it of cut stones, for if you wield your tool on it, you will profane it. 26 And you shall not go up by steps to My altar, so that your nakedness will not be exposed on it.
I can't wait till the day when excuses like "We can't visit our state capital because the depictions of satan and his demons scare the children".
You idiots laughing should be concerned about the moral decline of this country. It is you and these devil worshipers I will be praying for.
Perfect name for the spokesman of a satanic church.
Spokesman Lucien Greaves
Louisiana Rep. Valarie Hodges, R-Watson, is retracting her support for Gov. Bobby Jindal's voucher program, after realizing the money could be applied to Muslim schools, Livingston Parish News reports
Hodges initially supported the governor's program because she mistakenly equated "religious" with "Christian," according to the report. Jindal's reform package allows state education funds to be used to send students to religious schools.
Unfortunately it will not be limited to the Founders' religion... We need to insure [sic] that it does not open the door to fund radical Islam schools. There are a thousand Muslim schools that have sprung up recently. I do not support using public funds for teaching Islam anywhere here in Louisiana," Hodges was quoted as saying in the Livingston Parish News.
It goes both ways, and you can't discriminate.
Solution; stop fucking mixing religion with government whose sole function is to represent a myriad of citizens, of all religions.
That depends on whether they are theistic or atheistic Satanists.
Never really understood Satanic people. Is the goal to get superpowers, or are they just convinced that they're going to Hell so they're trying to brown nose the devil?
There is definitely a misunderstanding, with many people believing that separation of church and state is some atheist anti-religion crusade. This should be a good lesson that it actually protects religious groups from unwanted influences.
Problem is, you risk antagonizing groups that might start to become more 'militant'. I mean I understand the need to do so, to promote fairness and demonstrate the separation between church and state, but still.
This guy recently officiated at a ritual in which gay couples kissed over the grave of the mother of the founder of the Westboro Baptist Church.

Never heard of him before this thread, and I normally find desecrating a grave/disrespecting the dead in bad taste... but this I find just a tad humorous I have to admit. Oh, and his original (maybe legal?) name is Doug Mesner.
Well, the point is that the order for Satanism is reversed: it's the weirdos that take all the ritual and symbolism literally, whereas it's the party people who troll for good causes such as this one. It's a distinction most evangelical Christians won't discern, which adds a nice element of the absurd to the affair.

modern satanism is mostly tied to respect nature and giving in to our emotions. the references to "satan" and any other christian symbols are mostly out of protest against its hipocrisy. it sounds good on paper, but most satanists I met were dumbasses.

I would definitely support some satanist statues, though. I bet they would look cool.
I wonder if the satanic group will try to top it
I get that, but weirdo is subjective. From the outside looking in, all religions have their 'weirdos.' Alls i was sayins.

Some Satanic churches are tax exempt... Thats as real as religion gets in America. Bottom line wise.
Yes they do its not a real religion its a cult

LOS ANGELES Ś Even the star of HBOĺs drama ôThe Newsroomö admits that season one had its growing pains.
Creator Aaron Sorkinĺs show-about-a-news-show was, along with the now-defunct ôSmash,ö last yearĺs TV series most likely to be hated, or loved Ś or one that viewers actually loved to hate. On the hate side were some of those of the conservative-political variety and many, if not more, television critics of every variety; on the other side were the seriesĺ devoted fans Ś albeit a group that shrank considerably between the time the show debuted and the seriesĺ season-one finale.
ôSeason one, weĺre guessing,ö noted actor Jeff Daniels, who portrays the showĺs central character, cable-news anchorman Will McAvoy. ôItĺs like a first draft. So, for Aaron, heĺs trying to figure out how to write for me. Weĺre trying to figure out who Will is, who (Willĺs executive producer) MacKenzie is. Where does the show work, where would it go, whatĺs the direction? So, you almost need a season to figure that out. I think we guessed right quite a lot. But coming into season two, itĺs like we own it.ö
Daniels, Sorkin and nearly all of ôThe Newsroomö staff gathered Wednesday night on the Paramount lot for a premiere party celebrating the seriesĺ first second-season episode, which debuts Sunday.
Oddly enough, at once, the opener reveals plenty, and plenty of nothing, about what to expect from the second season.
ôWe kind of play a lot of the cards right at the beginning,ö explained executive producer Alan Poul. ôBut weĺre actually holding back a lot. The idea was not to make the season about what will happen with the big story ... but, rather, how did this happen? How did this become such a mess?ö
Actress Allison Pill, who is Willĺs now not-so-green associate producer, did her best to serve up plot teasers without spoiling surprises for viewers. ôWhat I can say is that there is one overarching storyline that involves a fake story and the sort of legal ramifications of such a thing going on the air,ö she said. ôAnd I think itĺs a fascinating kind of season-long story that you have to really pay attention to. Itĺs quick and itĺs twisted.ö
And itĺs likely to continue to polarize both viewers and critics Ś something Daniels said he and Sorkin knew the show would do from the start.
ôFirst of all, look: Art is supposed to push buttons,ö Daniels commented. ôWe live in a divided country. We live in a (country) of left-of-left and right-of-right screaming (people), and theyĺre the only ones that are being heard. So here comes this show that takes some shots at the right-of-right and they donĺt like it. So Ś bang! Ś they hit the Twitter, they hit everything, and off they go.ö
Not that thatĺs such a bad thing. In fact, if some folks from the right werenĺt screaming, one of the showĺs actresses admitted sheĺd be concerned. ôIf weĺre going to (portray) an accurate cable-news program, we have to slant one way, because that is what cable news is now,ö said Olivia Munn, who plays reporter/anchor Sloan Sabbith. ôYou can name cable-news networks and they all slant one way or the other.ö
ôYou know, thereĺs a saying in theatre,ö observed Tony winner John Gallagher (ôSpring Awakeningö), who portrays ôNewsroomö producer Jim Harper. ôIf someone doesnĺt walk out of your show, youĺre doing something wrong,ö he continued. ôAnd I think the same goes for all art Ś that I think if it doesnĺt polarize a little bit, then thereĺs something wrong. I think that anything thatĺs absolutely across-the-board loved or absolutely across-the-board hated (is problematic). I want to hear where people disagree.ö

Rent Sharing Mechanisms In Production Alliances
U.S. hog production has become an industrialized process. New technology has caused the scale of operations to increase, and the organizational form of hog farms to change. One of the new organizational forms can be found in North Carolina and Colorado where vertical integration and/or franchise-like production methods prevail. This type of production may not be possible or appealing to some producers. Instead, they may be able to reap some of the benefits of specialization by forming strategic alliances. The purpose of the paper is to answer the question: is it possible to create the same sort of control mechanisms in a production alliance that exist in a vertically integrated firm? Production risk is potentially one of the greatest problems in an alliance. We represent production risk with two measurements of performance – pig weight, and pig mortality. We find that high mortality has severe consequences for pig production. But, with appropriate rent allocation mechanisms, the member who causes under-production will be forced to bear most of the consequences.

Ailing Ex-Priest Keeps Shrine Alive
In Shadows of the Formal Flight 93 Memorial, Father Mascherino Tends to His Visitors
SHANKSVILLE, Pa.—The Rev. Alphonse Mascherino was driving down a back road near this village in October 2001 when he found a new calling.
It was a few weeks after terrorists brought down airliners here and in New York and Washington, D.C., on Sept. 11, 2001. Father Mascherino, then a Roman Catholic priest, had been thinking about the need for a place where visitors to the southwestern Pennsylvania crash site could pray. At a...

COMEDIANS Bill Bailey and Ardal O'Hanlon are bringing their new shows to the York Barbican this autumn.
Bath humorist Bailey is booked in for two nights of Qualmpeddler – October 30 and 31 – on his return to York, where he performed Dandelion Mind in sold-out dates at the Barbican and Grand Opera House in November 2011. No space was available in the Barbican diary for the second night, so the Opera House accommodated him instead.
In Qualmpeddler, Bailey once had doubts about the modern world but these have now grown into qualms. Come the autumn, he will be channeling these feelings of unease and apprehension, with the help of Religious Dubstep, his folk bouzouki, Horntallica, a re-appraisal of some of the world's greatest works of art and perhaps a dub version of Downton Abbey.
"I'll be looking at the consequences of lies, the unending search for the Higgs and the hiding skills of dentists, as I try to confront my Cluster-Qualm of living in a time of spectacular ignorance and rare planetary alignment that may be part of the Mayan end-of-days prophecy," says Bill, who invites you to "come savour this broth of anxiety".
The show promises all the trademark elements of a Bailey show: musical mash-ups, multi-lingual riffs, films, songs, philosophising and silliness on a grand scale… plus one amazing owl.
The 48-year-old comedian, musician and actor was rated by The Observer in 2003 as one of the 50 funniest acts in British comedy and in 2007 and 2010 he was ranked seventh in Channel 4's 100 Greatest Stand-Ups.
Television appearances in Black Books and Never Mind The Buzzcocks cemented his popularity, and tickets are expected to sell as quickly as ever for his brace of Barbican dates.
Meanwhile, Ardal O'Hanlon, the Irish comic and actor best known for playing Father Dougal McGuire in Father Ted, will make his Barbican debut on Sunday, September 22.
What can his York audience expect from this Leeds United fan's new stand-up show? "The style is observational, the subject matter is life itself, and the default expression is one of utter disbelief!" he says. "This show could have been called 'Why, Oh Why?' or even 'Multiples Of Ha' but no one name would do it justice. It's that ineffable."
Lurking beneath O'Hanlon's mild-mannered demeanour resides a sharp and probing – and, yes, fairly mild-mannered – comic brain. Sometimes thoughtful, sometimes silly, but always punchy, he will be discussing "not just the things that matter but also the things that don't matter at all – which covers pretty much everything".
As well as Father Ted, O'Hanlon has appeared in Channel 4's Skins and BBC1's Doctor Who and had a regular role as George Sunday in the BBC1 sitcom My Hero. He has made further television appearances on Live At The Apollo, Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow and Dave's One Night Stand and, back in 1995, he was named Top TV Comedy Newcomer at the British Comedy Awards.
Tickets for Bailey and O'Hanlon's York gigs can be booked on 0844 854 2757 or online at yorkbarbican.co.uk or bought in person at the Barbican box office, open Monday to Friday, 10am to 2pm.
