Liz Cheney: Special prosecutor for torture would be 'shameful'
Appearing on Fox & Friends Tuesday, Liz Cheney appeared to take credit for keeping the country safe from terrorism. "Look, we have kept the nation safe since 9/11. There hasn't been a single attack," she said. But Cheney thinks that Eric Holder is putting the country at risk by considering a special prosecutor for torture. "We can't [keep the country safe] without the right intelligence and the situation we're in now has really hurt morale at the agency and harmed our ability to get that intelligence," said Cheney.
This video is from Fox News' Fox & Friends, broadcast July 14, 2009.

Starting Items
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
This is a guide to hypercarry with adc's. I only show 3 adc but it works with almost all of them. The item build is the same for them all but you will only be able to solo baron with the full item build. Do not swap any of these for a defensive item in your full build, you can get one between each item but do not keep it. this is because with the lifesteal from Blade of The Ruined King and Bloodthirster is enough to sustain you if you keep auto attacking.
Pros / Cons
Pros- When you get this item build you can destroy enemy champions, no matter the health.
You can also solo baron if you focus on just auto attacking because then you get lifesteal proc and deal lots of damage.
Cons- Getting the entire build can be tedious and probably is only recommended if you're okay with drawn out games. But the payoff is amazing, so don't surrender!
You want to get the Bloodthirster first for lifesteal so you can sustain a little more. Then an Infinity edge for crit damage. Then the Runan's Hurricane for attack speed. Then a Blade of the Ruined King for all the lifesteal sustain you need which lets you avoid buying defensive items. Then a Phantom Dancer for movespeed, attack speed, and Crit chance. Finally you want ninja tabi, these let you sustain baron more. If you don't plan on or don't want to solo baron then get berserker's greaves.
Farm as much as you can to get the items you need. Take double golems or wolves (depending on blue or purple side) if you're jungler gives the okay or if you don't have one.(for PvP blind pick players)
Team Work
Tell your team that your build is for late game and see if they are okay with that. Also tell your team if you are going to solo baron and if you got berserker's greaves, ask for help.

SOME talent doesn't need to be judged, boot-camped and eliminated.
Certainly, the Victorian State Schools Spectacular (VSSS) is a necessary reminder in these reality television times, that most kids still do it for the love.
The VSSS did two sold-out shows at Hisense Arena today - 3000 students from all over Victoria singing, dancing, dangling, flipping and smiling through classical, experimental, rock, disco and pop scapes.
Gallery: A colourful stage spectacular
Highlights included a soulful reading of Train's Drops Of Jupiter, a tap dance frenzy for Anything Goes, and a jazzy Michael Buble sound-a-like on Save The Last For Me.
A hilarious dance-off between You Can't Touch This and Party Rock Anthem almost made this reviewer LMFAO.
And the vibrant Young Hearts Run Free, with all 3000 performers on the floor or in the stands, was a fitting finale.
Every lead vocalist gave shining, confident performances - a big deal considering most are first-timers in an arena.
The event definitely lived up to its name as a spectacular, with an 80-piece orchestra, 1500-voice choir, 1400 dancers, 23 lead vocalists, 40 principal dancers, 40 ensemble dancers, 18 backing vocalists and 30 circus performers.

text: Lets be clear I heard Kendrick Lamar for the first time on mixtapes around 2011. I remember it wasn't too long after my son was born but from day one I was taken by everything about him. From then till now he has probably released five projects and he has not missed a step. I kept on telling people that he is the next star and damn I feel like Im watching someone I knew from day one. Dr Dre has had the true gift and fortune in finding and working with some of the biggest and most important hip hop artists in our generation. I only wish Kendrick becomes better and greater over time. I'd hate to see a Kanye West typa of meltdown from this guy.

Basically the Login button finds the "User" and "Pass" button with the given IDs. It then inserts the information in textbox1 and textbox2 into the corresponding boxes on the website. It thens hit submit and logins. Then it sends you to the link hidden behind the flash GAME START button which will launch your official Netgame Hero Online Launcher.exe I hope I did everyone a favor in understanding how these things work. I can confirm to you that AX5 has no keyloggers or viruses or any sort of thing that will harm you in anyway. I saw his source code. (:

Q: What is the maximum amount for a FHA loan?
A: The amount varies by county and state. Please refer to the US Housing and Urban Development website to determine FHA Mortgage Limits for your particular county.
Q: What is a FICO score?
A: A FICO score is a credit score computed using proprietary formulas of the FICO Corporation. It predicts the likelihood of becoming at least 90 days delinquent on any credit obligation within the next two years. Most lenders will use the FICO score but many will also include additional criteria (application data) in their credit decision.
Q: How long do I need to wait to buy a home if I have filed bankruptcy?
A: The minimum time frame is two years after bankruptcy filing to be considered for FHA or VA financing. Conventional loan requirements look for a longer time frame, usually four years or more. The best advice is to speak with an Allen Tate Mortgage Consultant about your personal situation, as the circumstances, time since filing and credit history since filing all impact what financing options are available to you.
Q: How is a FICO score computed?
A: The FICO score is computed from a proprietary formula based on five different categories of information:
- Payment history – 35 percent
- Amounts owned – 30 percent
- Length of credit history – 15 percent
- New credit – 10 percent
- Types of credit in use ("healthy mix") – 10 percent
Q: Why are there three different FICO scores?
A: FICO adjusts its FICO score formula for each of three national credit reporting agencies – Experian, Equifax and TransUnion – to take advantage of their unique data strengths. In addition, not all credit information is reported to all three credit bureaus, and there can be errors in a person's credit record, such as information on accounts of other people due to similar names, addresses or Social Security numbers.
First-Time Buyer
Q: What types of programs do you offer for first-time home buyers?
A: There are numerous programs available for first-time buyers. They vary depending on the amount of funds you have available for a down payment, your income level and your credit score. The best way to determine the best options for your particular situation is to meet with an Allen Tate Mortgage Consultant.
HARP 2.0 Refinance Loans
Q: How can I determine if I am eligible for a HARP 2.0 refinance?
A: Your loan must be owned or guaranteed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. To determine if your loan is eligible, please visit www.fanniemae.com/loanlookup/ or www.freddiemac.com/mymortgage
Q: Will being late on my mortgage affect my ability to refinance under HARP 2.0?
A: You must be current on your mortgage to refinance under HARP 2.0 – no late payments in the past 6 months. You may, however, have 1 late payment in months 7 through 12.
If you are currently late on your mortgage, you can wait until you meet these criteria and refinance at that time. Your refinance must close by Dec.31, 2013.
Q: Do I need to be employed in order to refinance my home?
A: Yes, we will need to verify your income and employment for a refinance under HARP 2.0.
Q: What if I have a 2nd mortgage?
A: Assuming you qualify under HARP 2.0 guidelines, you can refinance if you have a second mortgage.
There is no cap on the Combined Loan-To-Value (CLTV). However, the bank that holds the second mortgage will have to agree to subordinate the second mortgage. Some lenders will charge a fee to subordinate your loan. Check with your lender.
Q: Will I need to have an appraisal done on my home?
A: It depends. The loan will be processed through Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac's underwriting system and they will determine if you need an appraisal or not. Many HARP 2.0 refinance loans will not require an appraisal.

China Loosens One-Child Policy
Kristin WrightReligious persecution, missions, Christianity around the world
- 2013 Nov 18
China has announced the most significant change to its "one-child policy" in 30 years. Facing an aging population who will produce less work and require more care in the coming years, China will now allow couples to have two children if one of the parents is an only child.
Researchers, economists, and human rights groups are applauding the change.
"This is the most market-oriented and the most comprehensive package of reforms in two decades," says Cheng Li of the Brookings Institution in Washington.
But some groups say the change isn't enough.
All Girls Allowed, a group advocating against forced abortion and gender discrimination in China, estimates that 10% of all abortions in China are forced.
"While All Girls Allowed applauds the Chinese leadership for taking the first steps to ease the One-Child Policy, we believe it is not enough," according to a press release on the group's website. "What about the mother who cannot obtain a birth permit simply because she is unmarried? In June, the world watched the dramatic rescue of the "sewer baby," whose mother was unmarried and gave birth in a toilet for fear of the authorities. Or what about the families that are eligible to have a second child, but get pregnant too soon? Under current law, many couples must wait at least four years to have another child. The restrictions are oppressive and unnecessary. This foolish and cruel policy should have been abolished in its entirety yesterday, not merely tweaked today."

Everybody talks a good talk when it comes to the value of relationships. But very few people actually invest in those relationships in ways that stand out and really matter.
My guest today is John Ruhlin, founder of The Ruhlin Group – a strategic appreciation and gift giving service that helps you create your own relationship action plan to consistently show your appreciation by giving gifts of appreciation.
You're going to learn a lot about the practical steps it takes to give gifts that set you apart and deepen relationships, so do what you can to hear what John has to say on this episode.How Gifts Of #Appreciation Build Powerful #Relationships, with John @Ruhlin Click To Tweet
Everybody has an appreciation deficit.
One of the most important reasons you need to learn how to effectively show appreciation is because most people have an appreciation deficit. It's not that they are ungrateful. It's that they don't take the time to be intentional about expressing their appreciation. John Ruhlin says that gifts of appreciation are a powerful way for you to be different than everybody else – to show that you truly are thankful for the clients or customers who drive your success – and you are not afraid to invest time and money to show it. John's got a truckload of wisdom for you on this episode, so make sure you take the time to listen and learn.
Gratitude that is expressed through gifts of appreciation has a bigger impact.
Many CEOs or leaders know that showing appreciation to clients or customers matters. Many of them understand the power of giving a gift that sets them apart from the crowd. But it's vital that those gifts are things that matter to the recipient and make an investment in the relationship. My guest today, John Ruhlin is an expert at helping companies determine the things their customers value so that gifts that they give to their customers are truly meaningful. Learn how to touch your clients in a way that makes a difference, by listening to this episode.#Gratitude that is expressed through #gifts of appreciation has a bigger impact @Ruhlin Click To Tweet
Promotional items are all about you. A gift is all about the recipient.
We've all received the coffee cup with a company's logo on it. Or perhaps it was a pen or calendar. The thought behind the gift was nice, but we have to admit that it's a bit tainted. Just as much as the company's leadership wanted to express their appreciation, they also wanted to promote themselves. That's a bad way to show care for your customers. Instead, think about them – who they are, what they are interested in, and the kind of gifts that would truly speak to them on a heart level. Then you'll be on the right track, thinking about your client rather than about yourself.
Rather than going wide, go deep with a smaller amount of people.
When you start to think about the potential cost of sending gifts that express your appreciation, it can become financially overwhelming. John Ruhlin understands that experience and suggests that you approach the issue in a different way, a way that might seem counterintuitive. Put your focus on a smaller group of people who have the most impact on your success. That way you'll not only focus your efforts but you'll reduce your costs at the same time. Find out how to make gifts of appreciation a hallmark of your brand, on this episode.Rather than going wide, #GoDeep with a smaller amount of people @Ruhlin Click To Tweet

Coalition is on collision course over donations
GREEN Communications Minister Eamon Ryan set his party on a collision-course with its partners in Government last night in a growing row over legislation on corporate donations.
Speaking in Glenties, Co Donegal, Mr Ryan said such legislation was "top" of the Green agenda and he would like to see it introduced this year.
But he stopped short of supporting claims made by party colleague Paul Gogarty yesterday that the legislation was a potential coalition deal breaker.
"You are either in favour of corporate donations or against it. That splitting of the line into whether it is good corporate money or bad corporate money, you cannot do," said Mr Ryan.
Meanwhile, Fine Gael leader Enda Kenny last night castigated party member Lucinda Creighton for raising the issue of Fine Gael accepting donations from a developer associated with NAMA.
"The Fine Gael party have no truck with rogue builders or hooky characters or shady characters. We have no dealings with brown envelopes, influence buying or dig outs. The Fine Gael party is absolutely above board in all its financial dealings," he said.

Why Jews Hate Spam
Whenever there is a Big Media Splash about anything — anything at all — it is not enough to ask the age-old question of "Who benefits?"; but you must refine this question to "What do the Jews get out of it?" After all, the Jews own the Media, so they get a free podium from which to broadcast their opinions and they get free advertising for anything that they want to promote or demote or to ridicule.
One of the topics that is on every radio station, in every newspaper and on every TV, is the subject of spam and how awful it is and how "WE" must do something to stop it. With all of these Jewish-owned media screaming in one unified Jewish voice concerning this subject, let us ask the question: What do the Jews get out of this?
Spam is, of course, a trademarked and canned pork product that was featured in a Monty Python skit. And being pork, it is something that Jews all in a bunch abhor and distain and refuse to eat. "Spam" is also a smear word that is used describe "unsolicited email".
So, the word "spam", being a pork product, is something that Jews would automatically reject. And this word was coined and promoted on the Jewish-owned media to describe something that they don't like and that they don't want anybody else to like, either. After all, the Jews own the Media and they make their money by selling ad space to you and to anyone else who wants to advertise in their newspapers, radio, magazines and TV. And if you have an opinion that the Jews don't like, then they don't allow you to broadcast that opinion since the Jews have the final say about what kinds of information that they will allow you to publish. It's usually called "censorship" but the Jews call it "freedom of the press" which means that on THEIR presses only THEY have any freedom.
But the Jews don't own the Internet. So they don't make any money from all of those people who get free advertising for their products. And they can't restrict the Freedom of the Press or the Freedom of Opinion on the Internet like they can through their ownership of the other medias. And because the Internet and email are free without anyone having to pay the Jews for permission to use it, then the Jews are opposed to such Freedom of the Press and have vowed to put a stop to something that they can't control and can't make money from. The Jewish philosophy is: "If the Jews can't make money with it, then nobody else is allowed to make money with it, either." And so, the great chorus of screaming Jews began their irritating squeals in unison with a word that they could count on for all Jews world-wide to hate: Spam! Spam! Spam!
Regular junk mail, as you know, arrives in your mail box asking you to buy something. As you sort your mail, you throw away the junk mail that doesn't interest you, you keep the junk mail that catches your eye, and maybe you buy something out of these commercial offers — something that you would never, ever have found by yourself without these unsolicited advertising offers. In this way, like it or not, junk mail improves your life by opening new vistas.
Junk mail is a part of the free enterprise system. It is useful in introducing you to new products and services that you would never have found without it. But do you hear the same screaming and whining in the Jewish Media about junk mail in your mail box? No, of course not! And why? Because with regular junk mail, the Jews make money. The Jewish advertising agencies design the ads for Jewish direct marketers and Jewish advertisers. Jewish print and fulfillment houses distribute the mail pieces and products. Jewish mailing list brokers control the prospect databases and mailing lists. And usually the products themselves pass through the hands of Jewish middlemen and importers. And if you have a product or service that the Jews don't like, you can still send your offers through the mails in an amateur sort of way, but you won't have access to the huge promotional capabilities that are controlled by the Jews.
But with the Internet, a whole new area of advertising was opened up for free without having to pay the Jews for any part of it. So, since the Jews couldn't control it, they wanted to shut it down and restrict it until they could gain total control for themselves. If the Jews couldn't profit from it or control it, then they wouldn't let anyone else profit from it, either. Thus, the word, "spam", was applied to what they didn't like. The Jews used all of the evils of slander, vilification, and deceit at their command to squash this new media that they didn't control. Since they couldn't stop unsolicited email, themselves, they have deceived the People into abhorring it, instead.
Granted, no one likes their email box filled up with unsolicited ads that they aren't interested in reading. Ads that are in line with one's interests, however, open up new vistas of goods and services. No one likes scrolling through and deleting the countless ads for pornography and sex products, get-rich-quick schemes and financial services — which, strangely enough, are usually sent out by Jews. It all takes time and patience to sort through all of this junk E-Mail. But instead of passing laws requiring ethics and honesty among E-Mail advertisers, the Jews want to pass laws against spam, itself. They are not interested in truthfulness in advertising since they, themselves, use deceit and lies in their own advertising. Deceit and lies make them money but freedom and truth does not. They are not interested in Freedom of Speech or Opinion or Press, since they, themselves, want to be the sole authorities and opinion-makers in what is published or broadcast with no non-Jewish opinions allowed.
And of course, with freedom of the press and freedom of opinion and freedom to distribute one's opinions and publications all for free, the enemies of and the victims of the Jews have been able to get past the Jewish-owned Media censorship. Christians and Muslims, White Nationalists, National Socialists and Fascists, British Nationalists, Russian Nationalists and Christian Identity groups all have had a chance to tell the people of the world their own opinions without censorship and without Jewish interference. And they were able tell their stories to the harassed and brainwashed people of the world who were benighted by Jewish propaganda, Jewish lies, and Jewish swindles. And they could do this all for free. This, more than anything else, frightens the Jews into their present foaming-at- the-mouth, rabid hatred of spam. The freedom of the Internet is a direct threat to the oppressors and the betrayers of Mankind, the Jews.
And so, whenever the Media is opposed to or in favor of ANYTHING, ask yourself, "What do the Jews get out of it?" And then please remember: "If the Jews hate it, it must be good."

The Coast Guard's ability to interdict drug smugglers and immigrants in the Gulf of Mexico has fallen steadily since the 2009 sequestration cuts, and it is asking for more money in fiscal year 2016 to help turn the tide.
Out of the $10 billion dollars in budget requests, the Coast Guard is asking for only a few hundred million to help repair and replace ships that have far outlasted their planned service life - some cutters are approaching 60 years of service. The funds requested by the Coast Guard would help the service purchase 6 smaller "fast response cutters" and would be a start in purchasing replacements for the Coast Guard's "medium endurance" ships.
The Coast Guard currently has 27 active medium endurance ships, the 270-foot Famous class and the 210-foot Reliance class cutters. The Reliance cutters are the older ships, all 14 having been commissioned between 1964 and 1969, while the newest ship, the Famous-class cutter USCGC Mohawk was commissioned in 1991. The medium endurance craft are primarily responsible for interdicting drugs and immigrants out on the open oceans. They have crews of around 100 Coast Guardsmen and normally operate out at sea for 6 to 8 weeks at a time.
Sen. Bill Nelson (D-FL), estimates that due to inadequate funds to procure and maintain their ships, the Coast Guard is only able to intercept about 20% of the drugs coming out of South America. This decline started way back in 2009, when the first round of sequestration cuts caused a sharp drop-off in the USCG's ability to meet their deployment targets.
In 2009 the Coast Guard was aiming for 2,555 ship-days spent targeting smuggling operations, and they managed to get only 2,036 - almost exactly 80%. Since then, the problem has only gotten worse. In 2013, the Coast Guard had lowered their target number of days down to 2,008, but managed only 1,346 or 67%. In 2013 alone, an estimated 17.3 metric tons of cocaine and other drugs made its way into the US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.

text: The logistics support vessel Major General Robert Smalls (LSV-8) - the first Army vessel named for an African American - was inducted into the Army's watercraft fleet yesterday during a commissioning ceremony at Baltimore's historic Inner Harbor. The 314-ft. long, 5,412-ton vessel officially joined the Army Reserve's 203rd Transportation Detachment as more than 300 guests looked on. Smalls is the second of two improved LSVs based on the six earlier Gen. Frank S. Besson-class vessels. Her sistership, Staff Sgt. Robert T. Kuroda, LSV-7, joined the Reserve's Honolulu-based 548th Trans. Det. in October 2006. Among the dignitaries attending yesterday's commissioning were Lt. Gen. Jack C. Stultz, chief of the Army Reserve; Maj. Gen. William Monk III, commander of the Reserve's 99th Regional Readiness Sustainment Command; Brig. Gen. James E. Chambers, the Army's chief of transportation; Rep. Elijah E. Cummings, who represents Maryland's 7th Congressional District; and Rep. James E. Clyburn of South Carolina's 6th Congressional District. Built by VT Halter Marine in Moss Point, Miss., and christened in April 2004, LSV-8 is named in honor of Robert Smalls. As a 23-year-old slave during the Civil War he commandeered a Confederate transport steamer loaded with armaments and used the vessel to spirit his wife, children and 12 other slaves to freedom. Hailed as a hero by Union leaders, Robert Smalls went on to become the first African-American to captain a vessel in U.S. service and later served as a major general in the South Carolina militia, a state legislator, a five-term member of the U.S. Congress and U.S. Collector of Customs in Beaufort, S.C. That LSV-8 bears Maj. Gen. Smalls' name is due largely to the efforts of Kitt Haley Alexander, a writer and artist who spearheaded a seven-year effort to have an American military vessel named after the Civil War hero. "I knew that this man deserved more recognition from this nation," she said, "and I first approached the Navy about naming a ship after him. After that didn't work out I ended up sitting near the Army's chief of military history at a social function and, after speaking with him later, he said that Robert Smalls' service in the militia might allow the Army to name a vessel after him." After a lengthy verification process, the Civil War hero was ultimately selected to give his name to the vessel. Maj. Gen. Robert Smalls and the other seven LSVs currently in Army service are designed to provide worldwide transport of general and vehicular cargo. Fitted with huge bow and stern loading ramps, the ships each boast a 10,500-square-foot central cargo deck large enough to hold up to 24 M-1 Abrams main battle tanks. The Kuroda and Smalls - launched in 2003 and 2004, respectively - are updated variants of the six earlier Besson-class LSVs and incorporate improved bow ramps, upgraded communication and navigation systems, and a host of other refinements. The vessels in the Army's watercraft fleet range in size from small workboats to the LSVs, according to U.S. Army Transportation Corps officials. Army vessels have participated in each of the nation's conflicts since the Revolutionary War, and currently play a vital role in supporting operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as participating in humanitarian-relief efforts in the Pacific and Caribbean. "This is a tremendously capable vessel, and we're very fortunate to have such an asset in the Army and the Army Reserve," said Chief Warrant Officer 4 Steven C. Brown, commander of the 203rd Trans. Det. and LSV-8's vessel master. "We've trained very hard to bring this ship into the Army's fleet, and this commissioning ceremony is a way of saying that Maj. Gen. Robert Smalls and her crew are ready to undertake their wartime missions." (Source: Steve Harding, managing editor, Soldiers magazine.)

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. It is it's natural manure."
I pray that it never happens... I pray for our salvation... but I depend upon no man for it. Anyone that trusts any politician, party or celebrity is setting themselves up for massive disappointment. Mark Levin talked about this yesterday. romney will change nothing... the very same international cabal that backs obama and the left are aligned with romney. Jimmy Carter all but endorsed romney yesterday. Do you have any idea as to why carter did that?
You can work for romney and give him your money and your time and efforts and promote him every day on FR... but millions of us are not going to vote for him and for absolutely valid reasons... and nothing that you can say or do will change that fact. We warned the gop since 2008... and we mean what we say. Unlike many republicans... our words actually mean something and our honor and integrity is real. No romney... no way... ever!
>>You can work for romney and give him your money and your time and efforts and promote him every day on FR... <<
Why in the world would I do that when I just said this...
"Who gives a flying fig about the GOP?
Im not a Republican and have NEVER been."
You will have no country, you will have no GOP, you will be living under Sharia if the Muslim Brotherhood stays in the US Government.
You can quote Levin to your hearts content. He is a talk show host. I'm going to quote Michelle Bachmann who is on the Congressional Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. The Muslim Brotherhood is calling the shots in this administration. Unless we get them out, we are lost.
So you see the trees but not the forest and while you are so busy teaching the GOP a lesson, enjoy your life as Dhimmi. Rush just said it, "We are losing this country." Enjoy what you sow.

Re: NEW prize competition from Chris Knott Insurance
Hi, I've been on holiday for a couple of weeks so the Chris Knott Prize Draw was delayed a bit but we're now really pleased to be able to announce the winner of our most recent competition.
To enter, all you had to do was request a quote from Chris Knott Insurance or renew an existing policy during June or July. The prize was a Car Photoshoot (courtesy of ImageFuel and worth £295), including a selection of the images taken on the day - Full Prize Details.
The winner, selected at random, is Thomas Riley of Sheffield who renewed the cover on his '51 plate Audi A6 SE with us in July. Congratulations Thomas! We hope you enjoy your prize and the lasting memories of your car captured on 'film' (well, digital files anyway).
For the rest of you, thank you if you asked us for a quote or renewed your cover with us - we genuinely appreciate your custom.

Man arrested over 'swear' coaching
A Connecticut man has been arrested on allegations he coached his eight-year-old neighbour to swear and say racial slurs for a video he posted on YouTube.
The boy's mother told the Connecticut Post that her son was paid one dollar to make the video titled "Swearing Kid". She said the video has upset her family.
Police said the video shows the boy saying obscenities and racial slurs in his front yard, and a man's voice can be heard encouraging him to make the comments.
Twenty-four-year-old Josh Eastman, of Bridgeport, was charged on Tuesday with impairing the morals of a child. He later posted 2,500 dollar bail.
Eastman told the Post he believes that what the boy said on the video was funny, rather than disgusting.

Governor Martin O'Malley today celebrated environmental education with hundreds of students, teachers, and administrators from nearly 100 Maryland schools, part of the Governor's Partnership for Children in Nature and Maryland Green Schools program. Governor O'Malley presented a Smart, Green & Growing Award to the Maryland Association for Environmental and Outdoor Education (MAEOE) during the event, where children participated in interactive workshops and activities to learn about environmental issues in Maryland.
"Maryland Green Schools help cultivate a sense of responsibility and understanding in Maryland's next generation of environmental stewards," said Governor O'Malley. "The work that these groups have done through the Maryland Green School Program has helped raise the standard of environmental education in our schools. Together, we've grown this program to become a national model of environmental literacy for other states to follow."
Over 1600 students, teachers, administrators and parents attended and participated in today's event designed to "ignite, invite and inspire" future Maryland Green Schools. MAEOE received the Youth Education and Awareness Smart, Green & Growing Award in honor of its Maryland Green School Program, which certifies schools and other institutions in Maryland that have implemented sustainable practices in their buildings, integrated environmental education into their curricula and involved the community in enhancing students' environmental learning.
During today's event, MAEOE recognized and certified its twelfth cohort of Maryland Green Schools and Maryland Green Centers, institutions that lead Maryland in environmental awareness and education.
Governor at children in nature eventThroughout the day, 78 new schools and five new centers were certified as Maryland Green Schools and received the Maryland Green Flag as a symbol of their commitment to environmental awareness. Nineteen schools were recertified after four years of continued efforts as Green Schools, and six schools were named Model Green Schools in honor of twelve years of dedication to environmental awareness and education. With today's additions, 16 percent of all schools in Maryland are certified as Green Schools.
To ensure all Maryland young people have the opportunity to connect with their natural world and grow to become informed and responsible stewards, Governor Martin O'Malley established the Maryland Partnership for Children in Nature in 2008. Under the initiative, which is now a national model, the Governor created the Maryland Civic Justice Corps and recently issued the Maryland Children's Outdoor Bill of Rights. The partnership's report and recommendations were presented to Governor O'Malley in April of last year.
During the recent legislative session, the O'Malley-Brown Administration secured record funding for Maryland's No.1 ranked public schools for the third consecutive year, with an investment of more than $5.7 billion.

Introduction to Disrupt Worldwide MLM Compensation Plan
Hey, it's me, Brian. Notebook Crazy is my brother Brad's multilevel marketing (MLM) review site, but I am writing this Disrupt Worldwide review as a guest post. The first two reasons have to do with my 9 to 5 job. (I am a high school English teacher.) That got your attention, didn't it? MLM blogs are supposed to be all about kicking your 9 to 5 job to the curb and out-earning your former boss, but my 9 to 5 job has given me two reason to want to review Disrupt Worldwide. First, speaking as someone whose job it is to help students develop a good writing style, something about the name "Disrupt Worldwide" just sounds unidiomatic to me. Why would you want to name a company Disrupt Worldwide? Can anything good come of a worldwide disruption? Worldwide Disruption doesn't sound like a very good name for an MLM company, either (if anything, it sounds like a cheap knockoff of Project Mayhem), but at least it is clearly a noun with an adjective in attributive position. Disrupt Worldwide, I suppose, is a verb being described by an adverb, but it isn't very meaningful when the verb doesn't have a subject or object. Who is disrupting what, exactly?
Not only that, but my decision to write this Disrupt Worldwide review was precipitated by an onslaught of ungrammatical and unidiomatic phrases that put "disrupt worldwide" to shame. (Yes, I am an English teacher, and I intentionally used passive voice. It is, at best, an insidious stereotype that you should never use passive voice, and you can tell your teacher that Mr. Kartoffel, the most awesome English teacher in the Midwest, told you that.) This three-day weekend has arrived at just the right time, after my first week of school. Earlier this week, I gave my students an in-class writing assignment to write about something that happened this summer that changed their perspective on something, and those essays were a lot of fun to read, but this weekend, I am grading the first practice essay question for AP English, and it is painful. It is just the beginning of the year, so I assigned it to get a sense of where students are starting, but it is really tedious to read all those essays on the same subject with the AP rubric in mind. Most MLM bloggers would take this as an opportunity to gloat about the fact that I am a chump who has to teach all week and grade essays all weekend while all they have to do to make money is click, but my brother Brad is not most MLM bloggers.
Brad and I both take a fair measure of pride in our writing abilities, perhaps Brad even more so, because he fancies himself an eloquent college dropout while I stuck around for a lot more postsecondary education than he did. It is against this backdrop that Brad offered to grade as many of my students' essays as he can in the time it takes me to write this Disrupt Worldwide review. Have fun, Brad.
But my reasons for volunteering to write this Disrupt Worldwide review do not begin and end with my students and their phrases that are as awkward as "Disrupt Worldwide." I actually wanted to comment on two of Brad's other reviews, one of which is for a MLM company that is related to the Disrupt Worldwide business opportunity.
The Disrupt Worldwide business opportunity rose from the ashes of Wake Up Now, an MLM company that Brad reviewed this summer. I have read every single one of Brad's MLM reviews on this site, and his Wake Up Now review is one of my all-time favorites. In the introduction to that review, Brad tells the story of when Jean Shepherd, the writer of A Christmas Story (which is my second favorite Midwest movie after Planes, Trains, and Automobiles), generated enough word of mouth publicity to get a non-existent book onto the New York Times bestseller list. It's a great story, and Jean Shepherd is one of my favorite writers. I like to have my students read his stories because his descriptions are so vivid. If I had to choose a favorite Jean Shepherd story, it would be the one about the county fair, because of the nostalgia it invokes in me for Midwestern county fairs. I was once the little brother who ate county fair food until I puked, like Randy did in the story, and you can bet that I ate just as much county fair food the next year. (I didn't puke the second time, though, perhaps because my stomach was a little bigger by then.)
I also wanted to write this Disrupt Worldwide review because I wanted to comment on Brad's recent Zyn Travel review. While I agree with Brad's assessment that there is little to be gained from joining the Zyn Travel business opportunity, I consider his Zyn Travel review a missed opportunity. Sure, the Guano Islands Act is interesting, as is the series of events that led up to it, but in my opinion, the most interesting character in that story is Leicester Hemingway, and Brad only wrote a few sentences about him. If it were my Zyn Travel review, I would have made the whole thing about Leicester Hemingway. So many people have never even heard of Leicester Hemingway, and he is so interesting; I think he is as interesting as his more famous brother. I would never had heard of him if I didn't teach Ernest Hemingway's stories in my classes. Leicester was an author in his own right, and the idea of founding an entire country for the purpose of oceanographic research! I mean, I am more interesting than my more famous brother (Brad is more famous than I am by default, because he has a blog, and I don't), but it never would have crossed my mind to use the Guano Islands Act to found a country where the economy was based on the demand for stamps, and the contributions of philatelists with disposable income were used to fund oceanographic research. As if this story couldn't get any better, the Hemingway brothers were born in Oak Park, Illinois, which is not too far from here.
One thing I will say in defense of Brad's Zyn Travel review, however, is that Guano Island Pete is a fun name for an Internet Troll. Brad can have Pigeon Blood. If I get tired of grading practice AP essay questions and decide to become an Internet troll, my name will be Guano Island Pete.
Disrupt Worldwide: The Company and Its Products
Disrupt Worldwide is a new MLM, so new that some of the Disrupt Worldwide reviews online are based entirely on pre-launch information. The Disrupt Worldwide website is up, however, and as the authors of the Disrupt Worldwide reviews I read have said, it does contain a considerable amount of hype. In 2015, Wake Up Now imploded after it ran out of money to pay its distributors, and the Disrupt Worldwide business opportunity rose from its ashes shortly thereafter. Jason Elrod, who was the president of Wake Up Now, is one of the founders of the Disrupt Worldwide business opportunity, as is Rea Nichols. The Disrupt Worldwide website gives the impression that Nichols has had quite a storied career in MLM as well as in several other fields. It says that he introduced as existing MLM to South Korea and the Northern Mariana Islands.
OK, kids, back to AP English for a moment. If you only learn one thing from AP English this year, I want you to learn how to make inferences from things you read. When I read that sentence on the Disrupt Worldwide website about Nichols introducing an MLM to South Korea and the Northern Mariana Islands, an inference came to my mind, and unless you are Rea Nichols, it was not a very pleasant one. I inferred that, since Nichols brought an existing MLM to these new markets, every single distributor of that MLM in South Korea and the Northern Mariana Islands is part of his downline team, which means that they all paid some of their commissions upline to Nichols.
As several other Disrupt Worldwide reviewers have pointed out, Disrupt Worldwide products are very similar to Wake Up Now products, which did not have much appeal when they were part of Wake Up Now and still don't, now that they are part of Disrupt Worldwide. Most of the Disrupt Worldwide products are software programs and apps that do things like help you track your expenses, prepare your tax returns, and look up health information. Those things are harmless by themselves, but Turbo Tax, Wikipedia, and WebMD are free, and Quickbooks Online is very inexpensive. Beyond that, your success in the Disrupt Worldwide business opportunity relies on your recruitment of new Disrupt Worldwide distributors.
The Disrupt Worldwide Compensation Plan
A common theme among the Disrupt Worldwide reviews I read was that the reviewers were not able to find much information about the Disrupt Worldwide compensation plan. For a minute there, I was about to gloat about my research skills, because I found a link on the Disrupt Worldwide website that claims to lead to the English language Disrupt Worldwide compensation plan document, but when I clicked on said link, I was sorely disappointed. It may well be the cover page of the Disrupt Worldwide compensation plan document, but that is about all. It has a picture of a guy wearing a backpack and facing away from the camera, but it does not have any information about the Disrupt Worldwide compensation plan, and it does not appear to have any other pages.
Advantages and Disadvantages
- It is fun that some of the high ranking Disrupt Worldwide distributors quoted in Disrupt Worldwide reviews have pseudonyms, such as Seemore Green, Fluent Cash Flow, and Antonio Unemployable Johnson. However, with the possible exception of Antonio Unemployable Johnson, none of their pseudonyms are nearly as inspired as the troll names on Notebook Crazy, such as Pigeon Blood, Guano Island Pete, and another personal favorite of mine, the NefflonNimbat. (Yes, I started a sentence with "however," even though I realize that is a no-no in the eyes of some English teachers. However, you can tell those English teachers that Guano Island Pete says "phooey.")
- As Brad always says when reviewing MLMs that sell virtually non-existent products, most Disrupt Worldwide products will not pile up in your basement. (One Disrupt Worldwide review makes it sound like one of the Disrupt Worldwide products, called Thunder, is some sort of energy drink. It says that one of the business starter kits includes a "box of Thunder," which sounds cool. Even though I don't particularly want MLM merchandise piling up in my basement, it would be kind of fun to tell my kids that a box of Thunder arrived in the mail.)
- Disrupt Worldwide products are lackluster at best. I will repeat Brad's warnings about business tools MLMs, because even though Disrupt Worldwide products are not business tools on the order of My Millionaire Mentor products or Iguana Biz products, they are still software that lets you do things you can already do with free websites or with apps that came included on your phone.
- I agree with the other Disrupt Worldwide reviewers about the difficulty of finding information about the Disrupt Worldwide compensation plan.
You have little to gain from joining the Disrupt Worldwide business opportunity, but you probably didn't need me to tell you that. You probably inferred it from reading the rest of my Disrupt Worldwide review. Anyway, thanks for reading, everyone. Students and teachers, have a great school year, make lots of inferences, and tell everyone that Guano Island Pete says that you can use passive voice and start sentences with "however" to your heart's content.
I'm sure Brad is in the mood to talk after helping me grade all those essays. Schedule a call with him.

As a member of the Architectural Review Committee, I support Leah Toeniskoetter's article ("Envisioning a more attractive, walkable city," July 14).
Projects appearing before the committee have been mixed. Some, like Samsung's, respond well to our urban design goals, while others are generic and belong to an era when buildings turn their back on the street and are completely automobile-centric.
It is argued that requiring projects to relate to their surroundings and provide a rich pedestrian experience is detrimental to development. Yet cities such as Portland and San Francisco prove that a vibrant urban environment is key to prosperity, attracting the creative class and jobs.
A lack of political will can hinder good urban planning. Too often in San Jose's history, decisions were made based on short-term concerns that leave a poor legacy, difficult to undo. Let's not repeat those mistakes. We should support the North San Jose Urban Design Guidelines and similar efforts.

Nice work by the San Jose Police Department in increasing its presence in homeless encampments. Why do people continue to refer to this large encampment as "the jungle?" A jungle is where animals live. Regardless of the path that led these individuals to be homeless, they are human beings and should be treated with dignity. Let's stop referring to their home as the jungle.

On July 21 Ed Lodi of Campbell stated "no way I would send my young children by themselves to another country. Regardless of the conditions …" I suggest that Lodi, and others who judge, learn about the Kindertransport that took Jewish children from Germany to England just prior to World War II.
Had my grandmother and thousands of heartbroken parents like her not sent their children by themselves to a foreign country, I would probably not be alive today.
Those parents did not have a choice to go with their children. And almost all of them did not live to see their children again. That is true love and sacrifice. Let's show compassion for these children and their parents and begin to work toward solutions on both sides of the border.

Thank you for publishing Eric Kurhi's article ("Gaza airstrike hits close to home for Palestinian-American," July 23) about San Jose resident Dr. Hani Jamah.
It is all too easy for Americans to ignore the human dimension of Israel's current campaign in Gaza, but an article like this brings it into focus. Please consider increasing your coverage of these terrible and important events.
Nearly all Americans take for granted, as they should, that Israeli citizens have the right to defend themselves. Far less widely accepted is the idea that Palestinians should also have a right to life, safety, freedom, and self-determination. But this conflict will never be resolved if Palestinians never have an opportunity to lead normal lives.
The United States has played a significant role in perpetuating the tragic status quo, and Americans need to pay attention to what is happening in order to pressure their elected officials to bring an end to the bloodshed. Even those of us who do not have family in Israel or Palestine should work to stop this loss of life for everyone's sake.

Looking for recommendations for this weekend. We are coming to the city with two boys, ages 7 and 5, both great eaters and willing to try anything.
Our plans so far for lunch are:
-Channai Garden (do they serve the buffet lunch on the weekends too?)
-Szechuan Gourmet
For dinner, we plan on hitting the Halal cart one night, and Ali Baba's another night.
We're just looking for recommendations for Sunday night. Any suggestions? Will try almost anything, but need to keep within a budget (under 30/pp). Please no chains and preferrably not Italian.
Last trip we tried Fatty Crab, Kefi, and others, and Kefi was great.....
Thank you very much for your help.

Forthcoming film Raffaelo in het wild is selected for the Wildlife Film Festival in Rotterdam. Congratulations to director Rachel Visscher.
essence is a bloody business | Jacco Prantl
Forthcoming film Raffaelo in het wild is selected for the Wildlife Film Festival in Rotterdam. Congratulations to director Rachel Visscher.
Wachtnacht by Ken van Mierlo and The Last Wall by Haider Aljezairi have been selected to screen (and participate) at 'het Nederlands Filmfestival' in Utrecht this year. Congratulations to the directors.
I'm happy to announce that next semester I will be teaching philosophy at the AKI Academy of Art and Design. The AKI is a inspiring art school that has a strong focus on practice which I find indispensable.
I am looking forward to be able to work with the students on the philosophical foundations of connecting art to thinking.
On Wednesday 6 July at the Fin! Filmfestival the wonderful film The Last Wall by Haider Aljezairi will screen at Lantarenvenster in Rotterdam.
Haider approached me with his remarkable project at the beginning of this year. He was about to travel to Kuwait and Iraq to film a fictional film with a local crew and actors nearby a conflict zone. The film is about local villagers having to leave their homes and families to fight against ISIS. The script is based on a true story and is filmed at the locations were it took place with a crew and actors that have experienced events like the one the film is based on firsthand.
When he first told me the details I was very surprised by the sheer ambition and adventure of his plan. To be honest, I was even a bit skeptical if he could pull it off. At the same time I was so curious about the material he was going to shoot, that I immediately promised to help him out with the sounddesign of his project. The result is this wonderful short film that has combines a local setting and atmosphere with a universal story about the basic human need of shelter.
Haider Aljezairi has a remarkable life story himself. He lived in a lot of different places in the Middle East and used to be a war correspondent during the last Iraqi war. In the Netherlands he started a new life, learned to speak Dutch flawlessly within a couple of years and studied movie direction at the Willem de Kooning Academy. He is undeniably a great talent and I am very curious to see what his next project is going to be.
I'm very proud that 'Wild Flower' by Fathia Bazi has won the 'best debut' award at the DocuTIFF festival.
The wise and very funny Lule, who is the main focus of the film, was present at the screening. It was her first time in a movie theatre.
I've been involved as a sound expert in the libel lawsuit of Dutch artist Tinkebell versus broadcasting organisation Omroep Brabant. More information about the case can be found in this report by the Volkskrant.
On the 4th of June Fathia Bazi's wonderful film Wild Flower will premiere on the Tirana International Film Festival. It is part of the official DocuTIFF selection.
More screening dates TBA
The trailer is online (full disclosure: design in the trailer is not mine).
Recently I designed a bell sound for a Zen meditation app for Zen.nl. I had lots of fun doing it. The sound is based on a recording of an original Japanese templebell which is very hard to reproduce on a telephone speaker.
If you're into Zen and have the need for a wonderful timer, check the app out at the iTunes Store or at the Google Play Store.
I'm very proud to be part of the film 'Wild Flower' by Fathia Bazi. The film is about Lule, a 75 year old farmer that has lived on the countryside of Albania her whole life. She tells her remarkable life story while sharing her humour an her wisdom with us.
This is a remarkable film that is in its last stages of production. I did the sounddesign and mix for the film.
As soon as screening dates are announced, I will post an update.
On Thursday 10 march I will give a philosophy lecture at the AKI Academy. I will talk about the philosophical understanding of illusion by artistic means by exploring work of Plato and Gerhard Richter.

Rasch, however, believes this situation really is more of an opportunity rather than a threat.
"You can look at it as a problem, but it's really an opportunity," Rasch said. "It means that, if you spend a lot of money creating information assets, you're taking the effort to protect them."
Lower-level IT managers, who traditionally focus on the nuts and bolts of issues such as wireless security, typically can't marshal the resources needed to handle the combination of strategic and compliance issues posed by wireless access to data.
"You need the resources to do it properly," Rasch said. "That has to come from management because the technical people will see this as a technical problem and it's not just a tech problem."
As a result, CIOs must be involved, for instance, in the risk analysis stage of compliance, a need that is magnified with wireless data applications. Plus, there are three other key things a CIO must do to make sure that strategic wireless initiatives don't threaten regulatory compliance.
First, CIOs must support and help enforce wireless security policies. That means, among other things, creating clear policies involving not just network architecture but also relating to end users, Rasch said. The case of the doctor installing his own access point is hardly a rarity, so users must understand how their actions can compromise security and compliance efforts.
Second, technology executives must make sure their company has the right skill sets available to insure security of wireless access to data. Finally, adequate financial resources must be made available to secure the enterprise's wireless infrastructure.
All these issues are on the table for virtually all technology initiatives, the experts agreed. However, they are particularly important when it comes to wireless access to enterprise data because of both the potential risks to that data's integrity and to your organization's compliance efforts.
However, with proper leadership from an organization's top technology executive, the strategic benefits of wireless access can be achieved without compromising compliance efforts, they agreed.

Wow what a great idea! I'm passing this on to a friend who is planning her wedding!

text: I met a woman who lives near me on 4 wooded acres. She had a bunch of trees come down during Sandy and there are many others down too. She says I can have it all! I'm thinking that I may have three season's worth or more here. There is a huge two stem White Oak in front. And what I think are a bunch of Ash trees down in back. At least I think these are Ash. I once brought home Elm by mistake, thinking I had Ash. What do you all think? There will be more pictures once I get started. I have more wood lined up than I have room for right now, but I will be getting into this soon. I'm hoping that I can do some clean up for her and store the wood at her place until I have burned a few cords to make room for new stuff at home.
