President Trump signed an Executive Order (EO) today that will undo a host of energy regulations imposed by former President Obama. It was signed at EPA headquarters with Trump surrounded by coal miners, and Trump described the Clean Power Plan as a crushing attack on workers and vowed to remove "job-killing regulations."
We're going to have safety, we're going to have clean water, we're going to have clean air, but so many [regulations] are unnecessary, so many are job-killing, together we are going to start a new energy revolution.
EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt said earlier today that the President is setting a "new course" that is both "pro-jobs" and "pro-environment." With statements like this coming from the EPA director of all people, it's clear that the "new course" has nothing to do with clean air, alternative energy investment or job creation. It isn't hard to figure out that the coal and gas industry are being replaced by automation and it had nothing to do with the Clean Power Plan. He explained that for the last several years, certain industries and sectors were the focus of EPA regulations.
The Clean Power Plan, at the center of legal battles, has been challenged by both Republican-led states and allies of the oil, coal and gas industries. Their lobbies have billions of dollars supporting them and it has become a game of "how many zero's" will it take to get a politician to fold and support 20th century ideologies instead of 21st ideologies. Oil, coal and gas are finite resources, pollute the atmosphere and have a host of environmental impacts in the abstraction of their raw forms. Solar is plentiful and abundant in vast portions of the United States. Wind is plentiful and abundant on the coasts of the United States and in the ocean. Trump's attempt at rolling back regulations won't revive an industry, rather, it will make it more hated when the side effects start impacting large populations of people.
Trump's EO will chip away at the regulations of the Clean Power Plan, scrapping language on social cost and greenhouse gases. A clear nod to the President's unwillingness to acknowledge that climate change and greenhouse gases are altering our environment with already devastating consequences beginning to start. The changes in language and scrapping of most of the regulations, it will be difficult for the United States to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement; an agreement Trump has indicated he intends to withdraw from.
Republicans have blamed Obama-era regulations for the loss of coal jobs, but data shows that U.S. mines have been decreasing jobs for decades that spans Presidents from both parties. Increases in automation, competition from natural gas and plummeting costs of solar panels and wind turbines have all contributed to the decline in coal-burning. Former EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy accused the Trump administration of back peddling to
when smokestacks damaged our health and polluted our air, instead of taking every opportunity to support clean jobs of the future.
Our thanks to you President Trump, what will our tax deduction be if we convert back to coal-fired furnaces in our homes?

healthy holidays: staying active/
One of the best and most important ways to keep yourself feeling happy and healthy over the holidays is staying active. In theory, this seems pretty obvious but in actuality there may be several reasons or barriers you throw exercise on the back-burner during the Christmas season- not having access to a gym, low motivation, not being on a regular routine/schedule to name a few, and spending time with family. Here is where the danger lies: the less you move, the less you want to move. The more you eat and don't move, the less motivation you'll have to move. And thus, the cycle begins.
Hear me out. Taking a break from a regular or intense exercise routine is good. I recognize that it can be extremely beneficial mentally and physically to allow yourself to recover from a rigorous and regimented exercise routine. With these things in mind, I challenge you to be intentional and incorporate fun, restorative physical activity into your holiday season. Here are my top 3 strategies I use to stay active and moving over the holidays:
1. Get the whole family involved
Take an invigorating hike, a walk/run around the neighborhood, go snow shoeing or skiing (if weather allows), whatever it is, make it a family activity! It's a win-win situation really. You'll be more motivated to exercise (and you'll have more fun) if you have people with you and it's a great way to spend quality time with your family with out the usual distractions (i.e. TV, cell phones, lap tops).
2. Do something everyday
Do some form of activity 30 minutes everyday. Whether it's yoga, hiking, walking, running, youtube workout videos, or anything else, just make sure you move. It doesn't have to be intense workout and by all means choose something that you enjoy. I find trying to push myself to do something like a HIIT workout while I'm home for Christmas usually ends up with me not doing anything at all. So, over the holidays, you'll find me doing a lot of yoga, taking walks in my woods, and going on hikes with the fam.
3. Get creative
Limited exercise equipment or space at home? Who needs a gym anyways? I've created a home for the holidays youtube workout playlist just for you guys! You can also check out my active pinterest board where you'll find lots of no-equipment/body weight workouts you can do right at home!

Public access to Emigrant Trail the right thing to do
May 3, 2013
Regarding Emigrant Trail opponents, a "privately guided tour" will be just like the Sutter Buttes access — completely private except for money collection at infrequent intervals.
You bought your properties with the easement in place. Now you want to annul it? Of course you do! Your proposal is like making a public easement private. In Nevada County, we have a real dearth of public access trails and bike lanes. What few we have is the result of a few enlightened citizens who had to work really hard to get what we have. Compare us to, for example, Butte County to the north with a vastly less well off population, and you will find lots of public trails and public access.
Come on you guys — give the rest of us a break and let the easement go through in a actual "public" manner. Your whole life will be improved if the county environment improves.

Hey guys,
So I figured people here might have a good knowledge of Androids... so I thought I'd share this with you and ask for some pointers.
Basically, the touch-screen had been "unhinging" from my phone lately... This wasn't a problem, as it seemed to work for a while.
But recently, I dropped it, and I guess the touchscreen tugged at all the wires, and this somehow resulted in a complete disconnect.
So now I can't access my phone-- except to turn it on and off. It's also encrypted, and I can't press the numbers.
Any advice?
What's the phone model? Those connectors are very thin. Hopefully it's just come loose and is not actually torn.
I'm pretty sure it's the Motorolla DROID MAXX ...and I believe the number for it is XT1080M
Yeah... I'm hoping it's loose as well. But It wouldn't surprise me if it's torn... Ya think there's any way to fix it if torn?
It is possible to buy flex cable replacements from some phones off eBay andsimilar. The rarer your phone, the slimmer your chances, however. Open yourphone up, and if you're lucky, it's just a cable that's been pulled fromthe connector.
An option for getting your data off your phone could be to use a USB OTGadapter and hook up a standard USB keyboard to it. I think that will workfor the lockscreen.
@jarrett's advice is good. Try to carefully take it apart. If it's tornprobably easier to buy a new screen.
I should add - you can pick up screen repair kits with tools for opening the screen. I ususally use a slim guitar pick since it's what we have around.
a couple of thoughts:
Moved to Projects category
Thanks for the Link Janet! It says it's not available unfortunately though...
I know that flex cables are sometimes welded to circuit boards using conductive thermoplastic glue that can be re-melted and re-adhered with a temp controlled soldering iron. I did this to fix an electronic scale once. It's doable, but not really easy .. for something like a cellphone I wouldn't hold out a lot of hope ...
Little update: I was at least able to use a USB OTG cable to plug it into the keyboard, so at least I can now access the data. (Many thanks to Tom for this... although I'm not sure what your handle is! )
Trying to purchase a USB OTG right now... I know this sounds pretty lame, but I'm struggling to figure out what exact "Type" of micro- USB the DROID MAXX has so that I can purchase the correct USB OTG.
I guess it's a Micro USB 2.0 but some sites are saying it's a "Type B" while others allude to it being a "Type C"
Would this perhaps be the correct purchase? (It says it takes a Micro USB 2.0 )
Type C is the new-style reversible connector (similar to the iPhoneconnector), which I'm pretty sure the MAXX doesn't have.
You're looking for a MicroUSB connector, but I think the other end you wantis a female? You linked to a male, which won't plug into the keyboard.
Something like this is more what you want:
(I'm pretty sure, but I don't know if there's something unusual in yoursetup, or what the cable Tom loaned you looks like )
They sell those OTG cables at Lee's if you're looking to get one in a hurry.

Los Luceros Historic Property
One of New Mexico's most scenic and historically significant properties.
In a state blessed with numerous cultural gems, the 148-acre Los Luceros ranch located north of Española along the Rio Grande near the village of Alcalde is special. The cultural site is surely one of New Mexico's most scenic and historically significant properties.
The centerpiece of the historic Los Luceros ranch complex is a 5,700 square-foot, 18th century Territorial-style adobe home which was renovated by the Cabot Foundation in 2004 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The property also includes a visitor's center, director's residence and a small gallery. In addition to the hacienda and the visitor center complex, the property contains three residences, an 18th century chapel, the original village jail, numerous farm buildings, apple orchards, irrigated pasture and bosque on the Rio Grande.
The New Mexico Department of Cultural Affairs, which purchased the Los Luceros property from the family of Frank and Ann Cabot in 2008, is the state's cultural steward and is working to ensure the site's preservation and integrity in perpetuity. The department's intent is to bring together historic preservation, filmmaking education and training, agricultural and environmental interests. Los Luceros is currently – and will continue to be – used as a cultural destination with interpretative exhibits and public access; as a retreat center for workshops and seminars related to New Mexico's film industry; crop-growing and environmental studies programs.
A recently completed master plan for the property will be the blueprint as the Department of Cultural Affairs increasingly – and responsibly – opens up the Los Luceros property for more and more public access.

Learn more about conceptual and fashion photography, compositing and post production with this series of intimate workshop retreats with Rob Woodcox and Jane Long.
Each located within an hour of the major cities, the retreats will be a hands-on, interactive, and extremely immersive experience, showing you new techniques to better your photos and business.
Our aim is to teach you to develop your concepts and ideas into polished images that tell a story. With a strong emphasis on compositing and post-production, you are only limited by your imagination in what you can create!
Whether you're an experienced photographer or looking to enter the fine art market, these workshops are designed to help you take your images to the next level.
We hope you will join us on this adventure!
This hands-on workshop will take you step by step through the creation process of a conceptual photograph from idea to final output. Numbers are strictly limited to ensure all guests receive individual attention and plenty of time for shooting and post-production.
What we will cover:
Where do great ideas come from? What is the process of developing great concepts?
To fail to plan is to plan to fail! We discuss how to plan for a creative shoot and how to keep things running smoothly on the day.
What lens is going to give you the best result for your concept? What other gear might you need to execute your grand plan? We'll also discuss the effect of lighting choices and modifiers and how they influence the mood and overall look of the shoot.
We will have two models on set with groups of three working with an individual instructor. We'll cover posing and expression for storytelling as well as effective use of props, wardrobe and makeup choices and how they influence the final outcome.
To create the smoothest combination of images requires planning when shooting stock. We discuss the pros and cons of shooting your own stock versus using existing images.
An extensive look at the post-production process – from basic beauty editing to detailed compositing tips. The importance of masking and ways to tie the final image together.
How will your final image be viewed? We look at printing options and the way your choice of output effects the final result. How does your paper stock choice influence the outcome? How does your choice of framing effect how people will view your work?
We will also spend time exploring the wonderful locations and consider how they might influence and inspire us in our stories.

Lately when we flush the toilet, we get a noise from our tub drain!
The noise is much like when a dishwasher drains and you hear the noise in the sink. Should we be concerned, and how do we fix it?
Get the latest news, updates and offers
from This Old House to your inbox
Lately when we flush the toilet, we get a noise from our tub drain!
Typically that indicates there is a blockage in the vent stack.
When the toilet flushes it normally draws the air behind water from the stack.
If there is a blockage in the vent then the air will be drawn from the closest source .... the tub and / or the sink in the bathroom.
Hope this helps.:)
Does this tub get used regularly? Sometimes in tubs that don't get used the trap will dry up and you can get noise coming up throught the drain.
If you can get on your roof with the garden house and let the water run down the vent stack. The vent will be over the area by the bathroom, but it never hurts to do them all. The vent are all connected to drain, so the water will go out through the sewer. If there are any clogs you will find out by the water filling the pipe to the roof. Process of elimanation. Good luck.

Billy Sharp calls poignant goal for 'angel' son most important of career
Billy Sharp has called his goal for Doncaster Rovers against Middlesbrough last night the "most important" of his career, days after the death of his newborn son.
Sharp played in Rovers' 3-1 defeat, hours after the npower Championship club had announced that Luey Jacob Sharp had died on Saturday aged two days old.
The crowd at the Keepmoat Stadim commemorated Luey's life with a minute's applause before kick-off and the striker sent them into raptures with a goal 14 minutes into the match. After scoring, Sharp lifted his shirt to reveal a T-shirt that read: "That's for you, son", and Darren Deadman, the referee, was praised for not issuing the standard yellow card for such a celebration.
In the early hours of this morning, Sharp…

|SPM taken in 2012.
Official transcript obtained 2 years afters.
Today I went back to my secondary school to get the official SPM transcript which I knew nothing about until maybe one month ago.
But then I figured that they can't just throw something this important away so I only went there today, 'armed' with a book I've read halfway through, a bottle of water, some cash, earphones and a phone.
I reached this place around 9.30a.m. and left around 1.30p.m. , with the official transcript in hand and the book done reading.
Meanwhile, I have been wondering about the job I should take on while the project I'm doing is on hold.
So far, I have narrowed down le jobs to these three: Tuition teacher, cashier or whatever at le book store, or ... ... Well guess I have only two jobs I want for now xD Oh. But it would be interesting to be working in places dealing with book publications as well.
But for now, I have applied for tutoring jobs in which I had experiences from before.
I wrote a resume for the first time in my life today. 8) An achievement and a new experience. I like the feeling of working for a fixed time each day, it gives me something to look forward to, which at this point can either be to work or to go back home.
I'm not sure yet if my parents would allow but I really would like to work in a library or a bookstore, where I can arrange books and assist people in finding the books they want. My patience has limits sometimes when it comes to teaching and what's more, I am going to need to study again if I want to teach le kids. All I still have in my mind are some biology and mathematics stuff.
I guide more than I teach. It's easier for them to ask me questions and have me answer them than let me stand in front of a bunch of students and tell them about subject-verb agreement. English is not easy to teach, on the other hand.
*crosses fingers hoping I can cope when I get whatever job that lands in my lap first*
On the other hand, friends have bee suggesting that I go work at Starbucks so that they can get complementary free coffee. Being a barista would probably be interesting as an experience in my life but it might not help me much.
I won't mind the free coffee, however. 8)

Moshura Ghosh Para in Shariatpur is full of sighs and cries as villagers and family members mourn Bishwajit Das.
Clutching their son's photographs and personal stuff, the parents fainted frequently. Just regaining consciousness, they began to wail again.
People kept coming to the house yesterday, but no one could console the family. They don't understand how a person could be hacked in broad daylight and why the murderers were at large even after everybody saw on TV the gruesome act.
Although police kept denying reports of arrests, Home Minister MK Alamgir said, "Eight so-called students were arrested so far in connection with Bishwajit murder. Some more will be arrested today [yesterday]."
The family members, still searching for answers why a youthful life met an untimely end, want no empty promises. They want justice and they want it now.
The High Court in the meantime yesterday ordered arresting the killers in 24 hours and issued a rule upon the authorities to explain in two weeks why they should not be directed to give adequate compensation to the family.
Bishwajit, 24, was hacked to death by 10 to 12 Chhatra League activists during an opposition blockade on Sunday.
The Daily Star has managed to identify five youths who directly took part in the murder. They are activists of Jagannath University Chhatra League, according to their political peers, general students and eyewitnesses who know them.
Photographers in other newspapers and video footages of television channels also have made it clear who the attackers were.
But during a discussion organised by Digital Bangladesh Forum at Dhaka Reporters Unity yesterday, the home minister claimed the people involved in the killing don't belong to Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL), a student body backed by the ruling Awami League.
"We've come to know their identities. None of them were active members of BCL or were involved with BCL." The minister did not go into further details, but again said some of the attackers were expelled from the BCL.
Strangely, MK Alamgir also dubbed Bishwajit as a "so-called activist of BCLâ€. But nothing about Bishwajit's political affiliation was published in the media and the family kept saying he didn't belong to any political party.
"Bishwajit was not a member of any political party. He was quiet, always engrossed in tailoring job," cousin Robin Das told our correspondent at Bishwajit's house in Ghosh Para near Bhojeshwar Bazar.
Bishwajit's elder brother Uttam Das said, "My brother fell victim to cruelty of politics. What was the fault of my brother? We are helpless. We won't file any case. What we want is justice."
His father Alombho Das said Bishwajit was supposed to take him to Dhaka for treatment. "But he left the world before me. I am now worried about the safety of my other son who lives in Dhaka."
Yesterday, Monirul Islam, deputy commissioner of Detective Branch of police, told reporters at the DB office that police so far identified six people in connection with the killing but nobody was arrested.
"First, a case was filed accusing some unidentified persons but later police identified the six persons examining video footages and other information."
Asked about political link of the "identified†persons, he said, "We will be able to say the motive behind the killing and the political identity of the killers after arresting them."
Replying to another query, he said when the incident took place police were a little far away and immediately could not understand what was going on. Therefore, they could not prevent the murder.
Nazrul Islam, officer-in-charge of Sutrapur Police Station, echoed the view of Monirul. He said none was arrested till 4:00pm yesterday.
In response to a petition, an HC bench yesterday directed the inspector general of police to take measures, so that the culprits cannot escape arrest.
It also asked the IGP to alert officials at all the departure points, including Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, land ports and seaports about the court order, to stop the killers from fleeing.
The government will have to come up with an explanation tomorrow if it fails to nab the criminals within the stipulated time, the HC bench of Justice AHM Shamsuddin Choudhury Manik and Justice Farid Ahmed said.
The court came up with the order following the petition filed by Nazim Ahmed, the editor of weekly Shoptoporno, seeking its directive upon the government to arrest within 24 hours those involved in the killing.
The petition also sought an HC order on compensation to the family.
The Shoptoporno editor filed the petition after The Daily Star in a report yesterday named some BCL activists Rafiqul Islam, Noore Alam, Mahfuzur Rahman, Obhidul Quader and Emdadul Haque as the murderers.
Eunus Ali Akond appeared for the petitioner, while Deputy Attorney General Amit Talukder represented the government.
Moshura Ghosh Para in Shariatpur is full of sighs and cries as villagers and family members mourn Bishwajit Das.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Here is my story.
Congenital Central Hypoventilation Syndrome (CCHS) is a rare genetic condition which results in an abnormal development of the body's automatic nervous system in early fetal life. The main consequence is a failure to automatically control breathing, which is always present during sleep, but may occur in some individuals when they are awake. There are thought to be approximately 100 affected families in the UK.
Our eldest Son, Finn (8), has CCHS. He wasn't breathing when he was born and had to be transferred to Great Ormond Street Hospital in London at two days old. After months of testing, he was diagnosed with CCHS and had a tracheostomy tube placed into his neck at seven weeks old to ease ventilation. He remained in hospital for ten and a half months with me by his bedside. After discharge we contacted The CCHS Support Group who helped us come to terms with Finn's diagnosis and introduced us to other families with the condition. We were no longer alone and had people we could ask if we had questions about living with CCHS. We attended our first support group conference in 2012 where we met other families in person and talked to specialist physicians from around the world about the latest technology and research. We even participated in a research study after attending. Without the support group, and our network of parents, we would feel alone and would struggle to get through daily life. I love to see Finn meet up with his CCHS friends at the conferences and build life long support friendships. Finn is now 8 and had his tracheostomy removed in 2014 and replaced with a mask. He has had to cope with more than most people ever deal with in a lifetime yet always has a smile on his gorgeous little face.
Anyone who knows me will know that until recently I was a gymphobic, sportsphobic and trainerphobic (I love my heels) person. I have decided to walk the 100km London 2 Brighton Challenge to push myself physically, mentally and emotionally whilst raising money and awareness for The CCHS Support Group. Most importantly to me though is the fact that I will do this for Finn, to prove that anything is possible if you put your mind to it.

By DOUGLAS JEHL,
Published: September 17, 1994
WASHINGTON, Sept. 16— President Clinton today sent former President Jimmy Carter, retired Gen. Colin L. Powell and Senator Sam Nunn of Georgia to Haiti in a final diplomatic attempt to make that country's military leaders step down and avert an imminent American-led invasion.
General Powell, who is the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Mr. Nunn, the chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, and Mr. Carter were to fly to Port-au-Prince aboard a United States Government plane on Saturday.
Administration officials said the emissaries had been authorized to discuss only arrangements the United States is willing to make for the peaceful departure of Haiti's ruling junta and insisted that they were not engaging in negotiations.
As American warships continued to steam toward Haiti, the officials said the decision to make a last-ditch personal appeal would in no way slow preparations for an invasion, which they said would come within days unless Lieut. Gen. Raoul Cedras and his top two associates relinquished power voluntarily.
"This is deadly serious," a senior Administration official said tonight at the White House. He said it would have been "irresponsible not to pursue" a final chance to allow the Haitian leaders to step down without bloodshed.
To reinforce the seriousness of his military threat, Mr. Clinton earlier today met at the White House with the Rev. Jean-Bertrand Aristide, Haiti's exiled President, and representatives from the 24 countries whose troops would join in any military operation.
The President's decision to send such a high-prestige team to meet with Haitian leaders came even though he had told the nation in a televised address that he had exhausted all attempts at diplomacy. The White House action also made plain that the President, who faces strong opposition in Congress to an invasion, even from members of his own party, would still prefer to find a peaceful way out of the crisis in Haiti.
Administration officials said they were also hoping that if the military leaders left Haiti peacefully, Congress might forgo a vote opposing the use of force that could come as early as Monday and prove embarrassing to the President.
The White House has said for days that it would be willing to discuss arrangements for the departure of the Haitian leaders only if they first signaled a willingness to accept such a deal. Tonight, Administration officials conceded that the coup leaders had not done so explicitly. They said they were interpreting an invitation made by General Cedras to Mr. Carter this afternoon as a favorable sign.
Mr. Carter first suggested to Mr. Clinton that he pay a visit to Haiti, White House officials said. The former Democratic President angered some aides to Mr. Clinton during a semi-official diplomatic mission to North Korea this summer, but they said the breadth of background and perspective that the three-member team would bring to Port-au-Prince might help persuade Haiti's leaders that despite strong opposition from Congress and the public, Mr. Clinton stood prepared to make good on his threats.
None of the three emissaries has been a supporter of Mr. Clinton's policy toward Haiti. Mr. Nunn has said he opposes American intervention there; General Powell has expressed skepticism about such a mission; Mr. Carter has said he believes that some in the Administration have been too eager to resort to military action.
But White House officials said they believed that this would add to the credibility of the emissaries when they tell the Haitian leaders that Mr. Clinton means what he says.
The President has said he will send a substantial force, somewhat smaller than the 20,000 soldiers and marines now bound for Haiti, to secure the country even if General Cedras and the two other members of the military leadership depart. But his advisers say the final effort to persuade the Haitian leaders is intended to create the safest atmosphere possible for the American troops who would lead the landings.
"There is a big difference between breaking a door down and walking through an open door," a senior White House official said tonight.
Meanwhile, Defense Secretary William J. Perry said the invasion itself would probably be wrapped up "in a matter of hours" after an American-led force landed in Haiti. And Father Aristide, who is controversial even within the Clinton Administration, pledged during the White House meeting today to reject vengeance and retaliation against his opponents once the United States military helps to restore him to power. "Let us embrace peace," he said.
The ceremony and statements served as highly visible symbols of Mr. Clinton's determination to go forward with the invasion unless Haiti's military leaders step down quickly. But they were also meant to dispel widespread criticism of the planned operation by portraying it as an international mission, not just an American one; as a police action, not a war, and as an exercise that would put an end to a cycle of bloodshed and violence in Haiti, not prolong it.
Saying the 24 countries and the United States were united in a coalition that was "strong, diverse and growing," the President said military planners had designed the operation to "maximize the chances of success and minimize the risk to your people."
But Samuel R. Berger, the deputy national security adviser, said later that it would be at least a week after an invasion before Father Aristide would be permitted to return to his homeland. The exiled President has been accused by some of his critics of advocating violence against his opponents and said in June that he would "never, never, never" agree to be restored to power by American force.
Some Administration officials also expressed some private skepticism that Father Aristide would prove as forgiving as he portrayed himself today.
And while Secretary of State Warren Christopher, flanked by the flags of each of the countries, called the military force being prepared for the invasion "a glowing coalition" today, senior Administration officials acknowledged later that most of the 2,000 soldiers from the 24 countries joining in the operation would not set foot in Haiti for several weeks after the American-led landing force carries out its first assaults.
The House had planned to vote Monday on a resolution that could cut off funds for an invasion, and the efforts by the White House today both to flex muscles and seek a final settlement may have been aimed at averting a political as well as a military showdown.
Among those who joined in criticizing a possible invasion today were former President George Bush and Gen. Norman H. Schwarzkopf, who commanded American forces in the Persian Gulf war. But the White House has mounted an aggressive public relations campaign, and today summoned an array of columnists, broadcast journalists and others to meet with senior diplomats and generals who sought to win their support.
By Sunday, 5,800 American soldiers and marines will be in place aboard aircraft carriers and other vessels off the coast of Haiti, with others poised to be flown into the Caribbean island from bases in the United States.
It was unclear how long Mr. Carter and the rest of the delegation might remain in Port-au-Prince after arriving there sometime Saturday, but Administration officials said the talks would not be drawn out.
The White House has said it would provide an aircraft and other unspecified inducements to help General Cedras and his two main colleagues -- Lieut. Col. Michel Francois, the police commander, and Brig. Gen. Philippe Biamby, the chief of staff -- to leave Haiti for a comfortable life abroad.
Tonight, senior Administration officials said the emissaries would discuss only the terms of that deal, and insisted that it would not include big outlays of cash. They said the three-man team would be accompanied by Lawrence Rossin, a Caribbean specialist on the staff of the National Security Council, and Maj. Gen. Jared Bates of the Pentagon's joint staff.
Among the countries most often mentioned by Administration officials as potential points of refuge for the Haitian leaders are Spain and France. But today, President Ernesto Perez Balladares of Panama became the first foreign leader to make public such an offer, saying he would grant asylum to General Cedras if that would help avoid an American invasion of Haiti.
Mr. Balladares emphasized that his offer would not stand if Mr. Cedras refused the American offer of safe passage and took flight only after a military invasion.
Administration officials said tonight that they simply did not know whether General Cedras was ready to accept an American offer or was simply stalling for a time or a deal to which the Administration could not agree.
But a senior State Department official who summed up the Administration's thinking about the mission said: "Either Cedras gets the message, or, if Carter and the others get stiffed, it will be very clear to the American people that the Administration has left no stone unturned in seeking a diplomatic solution. If they get stiffed, it will probably help us build public support for what the President is planning."

The profile page does not contain the customary "banned" notification statement, the hubs and profile statement are gone. The contact link is still active, however. This hubber may have just withdrawn voluntarily.

Chris Long posted this to Instagram today, letting Pats fans know he won't be returning.
Thank you Pats Nation. As a player you've given so much support to, I owe you an explanation as to why I'll be moving on in FA… even if it isn't a big deal. This year and this opportunity gave me a ton. I made lifelong friends in a great locker room and became a champion. I'm so thankful that Coach B (the GOAT) took a chance on me and allowed me the opportunity to play a small part in this wonderful year. This has zero to do with money, etc. It's the right move in my heart because I want to get back to being the player I was before. I'm thankful for my role this year, but as a competitor, I'm itching to do what I do best. It was important to say thank you personally. You may not remember me much, but I'll always remember y'all!! #driveforfive #missionaccomplished
Wish it could always be this easy, with players reaching out to the fans to tell them exactly what is going on. Usually free agency happens under a shroud of secrecy, but Long goes out just like he spent this year with the Pats, showing great appreciation for everything that happens in New England from the coach (GOAT) all the way down to the fans like us.
