Whitewater Explained - Part 3
By Editorial Staff
Published May 1, 2008
The Vincent Foster "Suicide"
By Nicholas A. Guarino
The Most Under-Reported Story of the Decade
Vincent Foster's alledged "suicide note" having been examined by several hand writing experts was a forgery! This indicates a cover-up of the reasons for his death by the highest level of the White House staff.
But a cover-up of what? For the answers to these and other questions, read on …
VINCENT FOSTER, WHO WAS CLINTON'S COUNSEL FOR Whitewater, was the highest government official to meet an untimely death since the Kennedys.
He could have killed himself on July 20, 1993, as Robert Fiske, Clinton's "independent" counsel claimed. But it's rather doubtful. The story line concocted by Fiske has about 20 major holes in it – which partly explains his replacement by Kenneth Starr. A few examples:
Official photos show the alleged suicide gun in Vince's right hand. Trouble is, he was left-handed. (Of course, a hit man wouldn't have known that.) Fiske ignored this in his report.
Vince went out and hired two lawyers on July 19. As Clinton's man in charge of covering up Whitewater, he had failed badly and could see everything was about to unravel (which it began to do in Arkansas the very next day). Question: Why pay for a lawyer to launch a defense and then shoot yourself a day later? Fiske ignored this.
After a somewhat hurried lunch in his office July 20, Vince grabbed his jacket and left the White House with the words, "I'll be back." And then we are supposed to believe, apparently, that he picked up a White House beeper, drove to his Georgetown townhouse, got a gun, drove to a lonely park in Arlington, walked 200 yards to a steep slope, went down into some thick bushes, sat down, shot himself and then threw his glasses 13 feet away through heavy brush, and wound up lying down supine and perfectly straight, legs together, with arms straight down at his side, the gun still in his hand, and trickles of blood running from his mouth in several directions, including uphill. What's wrong with this picture?
Where's the bullet? None was ever found even after a massive search and excavation. Could it be that the police and FBI looked in the wrong place? Sgt. George Gonzalez (the first paramedic on the scene) and his boss both insisted they found Foster 200 feet from the official spot. If they're right, then why was the body moved?
Where are the fingerprints on the gun? There were none! Where are the skull fragments? None were ever found. Who is the mystery blonde whose hairs were found on Vince?
In this age of detective movies, how could anyone think such clues unworthy of mention in a serious report? Sadly, the real reason Fiske was sacked by that 3-judge panel was not to preserve an "appearance of impartiality," as the papers said.
They were simply tipped off that Fiske was rapidly burying everything he could. For instance, when David Hale's trial judge refused to keep Bill Clinton's name entirely out of Hale's testimony, Fiske immediately stopped the trial and changed his charge from a huge felony to a small misdemeanor – with a vastly reduced sentence!
Where's the suicide note? Vince [Foster] wrote an unsigned outline of a resignation letter, which Clinton's counsel Bernard Nussbaum kept for six days, tore into 27 pieces (without leaving one single fingerprint – try that!), then changed his mind and let the bright yellow pieces strangely appear in Vince's briefcase, which the police and FBI had already inspected and found to be empty. But this "suicide note" says nothing about suicide, of course. And the final letter is missing.
I could go on and on. Fiske quoted reports – even an anonymous one from visitors to the park [Fort Marcy Park] that day. But some witnesses also saw "a menacing-looking Hispanic man" by a white van with its big door open near Vince's car just before the body was found. Fiske left that out.
Instead of allowing Vince's office to be sealed after his death, top Clinton staffers Bernie Nussbaum, Patsy Thomasson, and Maggie Williams frantically rifled it for "national security matters" (read: incriminating Whitewater documents) and carted them off to Hillary's closet upstairs. In a stunning show of chutzpah, they even made the park police and FBI agents sit in the hallway for two hours while they did it. And Nussbaum later claimed it was only ten minutes! (An FBI agent disclosed to me that a file was opened for obstruction of justice, but Bill had it closed.)
Why would anybody want a nice, gentle fellow like Vince Foster killed and his body dumped in a park? The #1 reason is that Vince knew far too much and he had to go because he was about to crack – and that would have ended the Clinton presidency right there and then. Suppose, however, it was a suicide. Suppose Whitewater was becoming such a horror that suicide seemed better than facing the music. What then?
Then the only logical explanation is scenario #2, as follows: Vince's Whitewater coverup was coming apart. Facts were popping up in the press and people were talking. For instance, Clinton's partner in Whitewater, Jim McDougal, had gone to Little Rock attorney and 1990 Republican gubernatorial candidate Sheffield Nelson and made a taped statement which I have heard, saying: "I could sink it [the coverup] quicker than they could lie about it if I could get in a position so I wouldn't have my head beaten off. And Bill knows that."
So sensitive was Vince to criticism that he was still bothered about the heat he was getting for his role in Travelgate. In fact, Fiske stated that those close to Vince thought that "the single greatest source of his distress was the criticism he … received following the firing of seven employees from the White House Travel Office." Little did they know the whole story. Vince had to keep Whitewater details bottled up inside – even at home.
On the day Vince shot himself, he received a shocking phone call from an attorney at Arkansas' Rose Law Firm saying that FBI Director William Sessions was about to subpoena the documents of Judge David Hale. Hale was a Clinton appointee who charged that Clinton forced him to give fraudulent SBA loans of millions of dollars to Clinton's friends.
In the Senate hearings, Clinton's people denied such a call took place, but I know for a definite fact that it did. And I'm backed up by the Rose phone billings and Vince's phone log. Also, Sen. Christopher Bond (R.-Mo.) later confirmed that the call was from "an old friend" at Rose.
About this time, Clinton fired his FBI Director – a step so desperate that no President had ever taken it.
Vince realized that the genie was out of the bottle. He had confided to his brother-in-law, former congressman Beryl Anthony, that he was very worried that Congress itself was about to launch a criminal probe into his affairs. (In this scenario, the "suicide note" was actually the "opening argument for his defense" before Congress – a defense which Vince told his wife he wrote on July 11.)
He was sure that in such a probe, the easy-going David Hale would spill the beans and drag in Gov. Tucker, Steve Smith, Madison Marketing, Castle Grande, Whitewater, Vince himself – and, inevitably, Bill Clinton. He mentally added up the fines and prison terms he would face for concealing Bill's crimes – many of which he had taken a supporting role in.
The totals were horrendous. And the thought of being a central figure in America's first presidential impeachment [Pres. Andrew Johnson was the first impeachment trial, although he, in the end, was not actually ousted.] was too much for his quiet mind to bear. He told his wife and sister that he was thinking of resigning. (But he still couldn't let on about the Whitewater crisis.)
He was cracking up. Everyone around him agreed he looked and sounded terrible. The Desyrel prescribed by his doctor didn't help. So when the call came about Hale's subpoena, he had to go home and think things over. But there, alas, he could think of no way out. So he put two bullets in his revolver, drove across the Potomac to the first quiet spot he found, hid himself in some bushes where he could pray in solitude, and pulled the trigger.
That's the most probable suicide scenario. Unfortunately for Clinton, it's almost as damning as the murder scenario.
Today everyone – from Vince's family to the press to the White House – professes to be baffled by Vince's death. "How on earth," they wonder, "could such a typical Washington flap as Travelgate cause Vince to be so depressed?" Under either scenario, the plain answer is: It didn't.

The Silent Scream (DVD) Eight Languages
"When the lives of the unborn are snuffed out, they often feel pain, pain that is long and agonizing." – President Ronald Reagan to National Religious Broadcasters Convention, January 1981
Ronald Reagan became convinced of this as a result of watching The Silent Scream – a movie he considered so powerful and convicting that he screened it at the White House. More recently, it was by catching just a glimpse of what this film reveals that Planned Parenthood director and abortion advocate Abby Johnson turned and became a strong advocate for the pre-born.
The modern technology of real-time ultrasound now reveals the actual responses of a 12-week old fetus to being aborted. As the unborn child attempts to escape the abortionist's suction curette, her motions can be seen to become desperately agitated and her heart rate doubles. Her mouth opens – as if to scream – but no sound can come out. Her scream doesn't have to remain silent, however … not if you will become her voice. This newly re-mastered version features eight language tracks and two bonus videos.
"…a high technology "Uncle Tom's Cabin" arousing public opinion just as Harriet Beecher Stowe's 1852 antislavery novel ignited the abolitionist movement." – Sen. Gordon Humphrey, Time Magazine
Languages: English, Spanish, French, South Korean, Chinese, Russian, Portuguese, Japanese

The Abortion Matrix: Defeating Child Sacrifice and the Culture of Death (DVD)
Download the free Study Guide!
Is there a connection between pagan religion and the abortion industry?
This powerful presentation traces the biblical roots of child sacrifice and then delves into the social, political and cultural fall-out that this sin against God and crime against humanity has produced in our beleaguered society.
Conceived as a sequel and update to the 1988 classic, The Massacre of Innocence, the new title, The Abortion Matrix, is entirely fitting. It not only references abortion's specific target – the sacred matrix where human beings are formed in the womb in the very image of God, but it also implies the existence of a conspiracy, a matrix of seemingly disparate forces that are driving this holocaust.
The occult activity surrounding the abortion industry is exposed with numerous examples. But are these just aberrations, bizarre yet anomalous examples of abortionists who just happen to have ties to modern day witchcraft? Or is this representative of something deeper, more sinister and even endemic to the entire abortion movement?
As the allusion to the film of over a decade ago suggests, the viewer may learn that things are not always as they appear to be. The Abortion Matrix reveals the reality of child-killing and strikes the proper moral chord to move hearts to fulfill the biblical responsibility to rescue those unjustly sentenced to death and to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves (Proverbs 24:11,12; 31:8,9).
Speakers include: George Grant, Peter Hammond, RC Sproul Jr., Paul Jehle, Lou Engle, Rusty Thomas, Flip Benham, Janet Porter and many more.

Mentoring in Higher Education Music Study: Are Good Teachers Mentors?
Date: August 2010
Creator: McCowen, Heather V.
Description: This quantitative study examined the correlation between how college level music students rated their teachers on the Fowler/O'Gorman Mentor Functions Questionnaire and how they perceived two aspects of their private music lessons: 1) to what extent they perceived their relationship with their teachers as positive, and 2) to what extent they perceived their teachers as good. The respondents for this study were 295 undergraduate and graduate music majors studying at 5 private universities or music schools. Positive correlations were found between the scores on the Mentor Functions Questionnaire (MFQ) and good teachers and positive lesson experiences. No correlation was found between the existence of gender congruity or the lack of gender congruity and the mean score on the MFQ. Respondents reported differences among their teachers' behaviors (p < .05): Role Modeling and Coaching behavior were perceived at significantly higher levels than the other six mentoring behaviors, whereas Friendship and Advocacy behavior was found at significantly lower levels. The behaviors of Personal and Emotional Guidance, Career Development Facilitation, Strategies and Systems Advice, and Learning Facilitation were found at levels closer to the mean. When role modeling and coaching behavior are present, students perceive teachers as good and lessons as positive. It ...

An Exploratory Study of the Impact of Institutional Policies and Practices of Community and Technical Colleges in Texas on Student Persistence in Online Courses
Date: December 2010
Creator: Hills, Fred W.
Description: Online education is the fastest growing form of course delivery of higher education in the United States. It has revolutionized how students and instructors interact in the educational process. Yet students in online courses continue to experience higher attrition rates than their counterparts in traditional face-to-face classes despite the advantages offered by the technology. This study examined the impact that institutional policies and practices at community colleges in the state of Texas have had on student persistence in online courses. It also examined how institutions collect and use data in addressing students' attrition. The findings were used to identify the most effective institutional practices to share with community college systems in Texas in an effort to improve student persistence in online courses across the state. The population for the study consisted of the 50 public two-year community college and the technical college systems in the state of Texas. The study used a mixed method. A theoretical model of institutional impact on online persistence was drawn from the literature review. This model's five categories were then used to construct a survey to collect data on institutional practices and measure the effectiveness in addressing student persistence. Four college systems were identified using ...

College Success for all Students: An Investigation of Early Warning Indicators of College Readiness
Date: December 2010
Creator: Davis, Denise
Description: The purpose of this quantitative study was to determine early warning indicators of college readiness among early college high school students at selected Texas institutions of higher education. Participants in this study included 134 of the class of 2010 from two early college high schools. The graduates were 86% Hispanic, 8% African American, 3% White, 2% Asian, 1% American Indian and 72% economically disadvantaged. A causal-comparative research design using multiple regression analysis of the data collected revealed that each one unit increase in world history was associated with a .470 (p < .05) increase in college GPA, while each one unit increase in Algebra I was associated with a .202 (p < .05) increase. Therefore, student grades in high school Algebra I and world history were the strongest statistically significant indicators that a student will maintain a 2.5 college GPA during the first year of college. According to the early warning indicators, students who maintain a grade of A or B in Algebra I are 10 times more likely to be college ready while having a 78% chance of maintaining a 2.5 or better in college courses. Further, the findings from this study found no significant relationship between TAKS assessment, ...

A Study of African American Students' Completion of an Accounting Degree at a Private University
Date: December 2010
Creator: Eddington, Alicia F.
Description: The purpose of this qualitative study was to identify factors that may have influenced the choice of major and the persistence to graduation of six African American accounting majors who attended and graduated from a private, predominantly white university from the academic years 2003 through 2009. A set of indicators based on several retention studies was selected for the purpose of identifying pre-college, off-campus, and on-campus factors that influenced students' choice of major and persistence to graduate with a major in accounting. The major findings of this study were that early skill development prior to the college experience, family support, and cultural socialization influenced the participants' ability to choose a major associated with their skill set. Their persistence to graduation was attributed to that choice. With regard to future studies, expansion of research on African Americans in higher education will give direction for administrators seeking to increase the number of under-represented students in fields where there is a marketplace need.

A Quantitative Analysis of the Relationship of a Non-traditional New Student Orientation in an Urban Community College with Student Retention and Grade Point Average Among Ethnic Groups
Date: December 2010
Creator: Martinez, Vesta Wheatley
Description: This quantitative study examined relationships of attending a new student orientation program related to student retention and academic success. A research group of 464 students of Tarrant County College Northwest, a community college campus in Fort Worth, Texas, who voluntarily attended a 2-hour pre-semester new student orientation program was compared to a group of 464 students on the same campus who did not attend the program. Comparisons were made with regard to retention and GPA. Ethnic ratios of both groups are 4% Black, 26% Hispanic, 66% White, and 4% other ethnicities. Chi square data analysis was utilized to determine if statistically significant differences relating to student retention existed between the groups. The independent t-test was used to compare means of calculated GPAs between groups. A one-way ANOVA was used to compare the means of GPAs for ethnic sub-groups. The total group and the Black sub-group showed statistically significant higher levels of second-semester retention (total group p = .018; Black sub-group p = .008) and higher calculated GPAs (total group p = .016; Black sub-group p = .019). No statistically significant results were found among Hispanic students.

The Relationship of Service-Learning and Campus Involvement: A Multivariate Look at the Profile of Today's College Student
Date: December 2010
Creator: Kittle, Kris J.
Description: Service-learning continues to gain in popularity across the higher education landscape and can be found in most educational institutions. Although more often found in student affairs programming, it is also viewed as a viable pedagogy. Most studies show that service-learning impacts students in various ways: academically, socially and vocationally. The research study employed quantitative methods. It analyzed prediction of participation in community service/service-learning with students' self-assessment on five outcomes: academic skills, social integration, community integration/alumni expectations, connection with the campus community and change in opinions, values and attitudes. A canonical correlation analysis was conducted on data collected on the Profile of Today's College Student administered by NASPA-Student Affairs Administrators in Higher Education. The data represent a random sample (N = 374) of undergraduate students enrolled at a mid-sized, private four-year university located in the south central United States. The study looked for statistical significance as well as employed effect size measures. The study found participation in community service/service-learning predicts on all five factors in the model. Additional analysis incorporated effect size measures to further strengthen the results. The results were both statistically (p < .001) and practically significant (Rc2 = .101). Connection with the campus community and social integration were ...

Faculty Research Productivity at Addis Ababa University
Date: May 2011
Creator: Stafford, Mehary T.
Description: This study explores the research productivity of Addis Ababa University (AAU) faculty. AAU was established in 1950 and is the oldest modern higher educational institution in Ethiopia. Recently AAU took steps to transform itself to become a pre-eminent African research university. One of the characteristics of a research university is the focus on the amount of research conducted by the institution's faculty. Academic institutions measure research productivity primarily based on published work. The purpose of this study was to analyze the research productivity of AAU faculty, and to examine the differential predictive effects of individual and environmental variables on faculty research productivity. This quantitative study used a theoretical framework and instrument, Faculty at Work. Four hundred questionnaires were distributed to Addis AAU faculty in person and 298 questionnaires were returned resulting in a 74.5% response rate. After exclusion of 12 cases with missing information, 286 cases (71.5% response rate) were analyzed. Most of the respondents were men (M = 92.1%, F = 7.9%). The average age of AAU faculty was 44. A hierarchical multiple regression was used to examine the ability of six sets of independent variables (sociodemographic, career, self-knowledge, social knowledge, behavior, and environmental response) to predict research productivity ...

An Exploratory Study of Students' Use of Facebook and Other Communication Modalities in Order to Receive Student Affairs Information
Date: May 2011
Creator: Huppe, Alicia
Description: This qualitative study explored Facebook as a communication tool for student affairs and compared it as a source with other communication modalities to describe the 18-24 year old student preference on receiving information about student affairs departments and activities. The research questions were designed to provide feedback on the current purpose[s] of student use of Facebook for student affairs services as well as reporting additional services and activities that would be considered through the use of Facebook. Differences in use among institutional types were also explored. The results of 395 online survey responses were compared to focus groups consisting of student ambassadors at a two-year public, four-year private, and four-year public institution. The online survey participants were asked to respond to specific modes of communication based upon each service or activity. The focus groups were asked the same questions in an open-ended format and the results were compared to the online results. The results indicate that depending on the event or activity, the students preferred a different method of communication, not necessarily Facebook for information on student affairs programming. These results also differed among institutional types. Two-year institutions have the greatest potential to increase their presence on Facebook. One theme ...

A Critical Analysis of Ph.D. and Ed.D. Dissertation Abstracts Published during 2009 and 2010
Date: May 2011
Creator: Newsom, Thomas W.
Description: The completion of the dissertation certifies the completion of the academic rigors of the doctoral degree and verifies the candidate's achievement of independent scholarship. The Carnegie Project on the Education Doctorate was a 5-year effort to define the distinct purpose of the Ph.D. and Ed.D. in education. The Carnegie Project sought to ensure that the academy moved forward on two fronts: rethinking and reclaiming the research doctorate, the Ph.D., and developing the distinct professional practice doctorate, the Ed.D. The project determined that there has been a blurring of the distinctions between these two degrees over the past half-century which invites examination of their purpose and their content. Given this, this qualitative study examined Ph.D. and Ed.D. dissertation abstracts to determine if abstracts differ in terms of these selected factors: research design, data analysis, use of theoretical frameworks, subjects or participants, the setting or context of the study, and to compare Ph.D. and Ed.D. abstracts to the abstract format recommended in literature to explore if there are differences in the abstracts and to determine to what extent abstracts in either degree are congruent with the recommendations. This study used a digital dissertation database to study 100 Ed.D. dissertation abstracts and 100 ...

The Relationship Between Supplemental Instruction Leader Learning Style and Study Session Design
Date: May 2011
Creator: Adams, Joshua
Description: The purpose of this qualitative study was to examine the learning styles of supplemental instruction leaders at a large, public university during the fall 2010 semester and determine whether or not their personal learning styles influenced the way they designed and developed out-of-class study sessions. The total population of supplemental instruction leaders was 37, of which 24 were eligible to participate in the study. Of the 24 eligible supplemental instruction leaders, 20 completed the entire study. Participants in the study included nine male and 11 female supplemental instruction leaders with a median age of 22.25 years-old. Seventeen participants indicated their classification as senior, two as junior, and one as sophomore. Of the participants, 16 indicated white as a race or ethnicity, one indicated Asian, two indicated African American, and one indicated both American Indian/Alaska Native and white. Supplemental instruction leader learning style was assessed using the Kolb Learning Style Inventory. Leaders were then interviewed, and their study sessions were analyzed. Through triangulation of data from learning style, interviews and actual study session documents, four major themes emerged. The four themes were: 1) incorporation of personal experience into study session design, 2) the sense of impact on student learning, 3) a ...

Technology is reinventing established oil fields and drastically increasing the amount of oil thought to be accessible in the world, according to a report from The New York Times. "It looks like the peak oil theory peaked with $78 oil, last August," said Daniel Yergin, Associates Chairman at Cambridge Energy Research, to "Squawk Box."
Upside in investments is important. But if today's rally doesn't hold and last week's sell-off returns in full force, you'll want stocks that minimize the downside. The solution: Look for good yields.
Stocks snapped back from a week-long selloff and posted the biggest one-day gains in several months."The market is feeling a lot better," said Stuart George, head of equity trading at Delaware Investments, in an interview with CNBC.com.
Oil prices climbed toward $61 a barrel, drawing strength from a rebound in global equities and on forecasts for a drop in gasoline inventories in the United States, the top consumer.
BP Chief Executive John Browne saw his pay fall in 2006, despite a 15% rise in the oil giant's profits, as BP suffered oil spills, accusations that cost cutting had hit safety and allegations of market manipulation.
Stocks were hit by another late-session selloff as investors remained jittery after the market's worst week in four years. "I think it's just indicative of what the market is going to look like for the next couple of weeks, it's going to be very choppy," said Dan McMahon, head of listed trading at CIBC World Markets.
Crude oil futures fell below $60 a barrel, pressured by weak stock markets in Asia and Europe that fueled economic growth concerns, though bargain hunting lifted stocks in the United States and helped support crude futures.
China's legislature is expected to end special tax breaks for foreign companies in its annual session Monday. A law that state media say is expected to be enacted would equalize tax rates, raising foreign companies' tax bills and cutting those for many Chinese entities.
Stocks closed sharply lower on Friday, sparked by a wave of last-minute selling by investors reluctant to be in the market over the weekend.."There was just no good news that came out today to convince people to buy stocks," said Charles Rotblut, senior market analyst at Zacks.com. "There are a lot of people happy with taking money off the table and waiting until Monday to see how it unfolds."
Oil prices fell Friday as traders watched the stock market decline even further, renewing concerns that economic growth may stall.
This week's turmoil in the global markets has put the spotlight on arcane investment practice known as carry trade.Though a buzz word in investment circles, carry trades actually play an important role in global financing and markets.
Equity investors may look for bargains as trading begins next week following the worst five-day stretch for U.S. stocks since August 2004 and the poorest in four years in Europe, according to Mike Lenhoff, Chief Strategist and Head of Research at Brewin Dolphin Securities.
Linde, the world's largest maker of industrial gases, said Friday that 2006 net income more than tripled after restructuring the business.
Stocks closed moderately lower, but well off session lows as investors went bargain hunting. "The market is trying to settle in at some level," says Barry Hyman, Equity Market Strategist at EKN Financial Services. "There is a perception of change and there's a lot of nervous money still out here. "
U.S. crude oil futures ended higher for the seventh session in a row on Thursday as gasoline futures rallied amid refinery snags and shrinking supplies.
CNBC's Stock Editor Joe Kernen thinks this week's Dow plunge and the fears it generated are bullish for the stock market.
Russia's Gazprom has discussed forming a joint venture with BP that could work with liquefied natural gas, the state gas monopoly said in a statement Thursday.
CNBC's Kate Kelly reports on the Volcker Rule legislation and the new reporting requirements banks will now face.

A older modle ferrari and the new wrx. I was comming home from work and I saw the ferrari and I guess I was looking at it I didnt even notice the wrx behind it. So I pass them on the left lane we are in traffic not flying past them are anything. I guess once they saw me pass them it seemed like they were trying to catch me are something. When we got out in front of traffic the wrx just flew by me doing probably 120ish. The ferrari pulls up and I look at him and laugh, windows are to dark to see inside. He punches it and I see the back end of it drop at take off like a bat out of hell. I creamed my pants and just thought I share this. I really wish I was driving the Speed 6 I still want to race the new WRX with it.

Telicatessen is the debut solo album by American hip hop artist and former Sonic Sum member Rob Sonic, released by the Definitive Jux label on September 7, 2004. An instrumental version of the album was released the following year, also by Definitive Jux. All production, lyrics and vocals were by Rob Sonic, with the exception of the verses on "Sniper Picnic" by fellow New York MC Creature and Alaska and Windnbreeze from Definitive Jux labelmates Hangar 18 and backing vocals by M. Sayyid of the group Antipop Consortium. Scratches were performed by Fred Ones from Sonic's former group the Sonic... Sum, and by DJ Big Wiz. The album's title is a portmanteau word combining the terms "television" and "delicatessen". The track "Sniper Picnic" was featured on the soundtrack of Activision game Tony Hawk's American Wasteland.more
Rob Sonic is a hip hop artist from The Bronx. He is a member of Sonic Sum and Hail Mary Mallon. As a child growing up, Rob Sonic devoted himself to many styles of music. He was a follower of artists such as The Beatles, Run DMC, Kraftwerk, Talking Heads, Led Zeppelin, Public Enemy, Muddy Waters, Ultramagnetic MC's, The Clash among many others. In 2000, Rob Sonic gained critical acclaim as the front man of the group Sonic Sum, whose first album... The Sanity Annex won rave reviews in the United States, Europe and Japan, with Spin voting it the "2nd Best Album of the Year that No One Heard". Word got around and soon came offers from artists like DJ Krush and Funkstörung to work with them on their albums, a collaboration with Slug and Mike Ladd, as well as shout outs from Radiohead, Bobbito Garcia, Autechre and others. During 2003, Rob Sonic signed to Definitive Jux after he and label head El-P realised they shared the same management. He released the first solo album Telicatessen on the label in 2004, along with the second solo album Sabotage Gigante in 2007. The song "Sniper Picnic" from Telicatessen was featured in the game Tony Hawk's American Wasteland.more

Erica Lear (left) and Janelle Hester (right) earned All-Tournament honors as the Lady Vols finished second at the Indiana University Blimpie/Holiday Inn Classic. |
Sept. 1, 2001
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - The University of Tennessee Lady Volunteer volleyball team used a 3-0 victory over Indiana University on Saturday to secure second place in the Indiana University Blimpie/Holiday Inn Classic in Bloomington, Ind. Bowling Green State University took home the first place trophy, finishing the weekend with a 3-0 record. Indiana finished third.
Solidifying his line up, head coach Rob Patrick used senior setter Erica Lear, junior middle blocker Janelle Hester, senior outside hitter Ariana Wilson, sophomore defensive specialist Megan Arner and junior outside hitters Kelli Scott and Caley Carter to fashion the 30-26, 30-22, 30-24, triumph. Freshmen outside hitter Whitney Gifford rotated in for Hester in the back row, while senior outside hitter Andrea Peterson played back for Wilson. Sophomore middle blocker Trinia Cuseo entered in the front row for Arner.
"The players are getting comfortable on the court," Patrick said. "They are getting used to who they are playing next to and Erica is really starting to click with the hitters. Our passing efforts today where vastly improved over the Bowling Green match and that can be attributed to people knowing their positions on the court."
Tennessee improves to 2-1 overall in the young season, while Indiana falls to 1-2. After the tournament, Lear and Hester were named to the All-Tournament team.
Leading the way for UT against IU was Lear, who posted 43 assists as the team hit a season-high .370. Wilson recorded a near double-double with 12 kills and 9 blocks. Hester added 11 kills and hit .360 on the night. Scott added 10 kills, three aces and seven digs while, newcomer Carter made her presence known by slamming down eight kills, two aces and digging the ball eight times. She also hit a team-high .538.
Up next for the Lady Vols, the team heads to the West Coast for the California Golden Bear Classic Sept. 7-8. The in-season tournament also features Rice, Florida Atlantic and California.

Nelson Mandela: A life in pictures
Nelson Mandela and his wife Winnie in this undated file picture.
It was the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, and America was under attack. In this moment of crisis President Bush rushed aboard Air Force One and took off without giving a destination or any instructions on how to respond to the emergency. Vice President Cheney, deep in the Presidential Emergency Operations Center under the White House, was told a fourth airliner was 80 miles from Washington. Knowing that two planes had crashed into the World Trade Center and another into the Pentagon, Cheney must have feared that one could be headed for the White House. "In about the time it takes a batter to decide to swing," he gave the order to shoot down the plane without pausing to worry about the passengers.
There was no plane heading toward Washington, however, and even if there had been, the U.S. fighter jets in the area had no weapons onboard. The fourth hijacked airliner had already crashed in a Pennsylvania field. But Cheney did not have that information. Nor did he have the authority to order the destruction of the plane.
Bush and Cheney, who refused to testify under oath or in public and insisted on appearing together before the 9/11 commission, asserted that the president had given his approval in a telephone conversation. The only problem is, there is no record of that conversation. The 9/11 commission's report concluded that "there is no documentary evidence for this call."
Faced with a situation in which the president exercised no authority and the vice president exceeded his, what did Condoleezza Rice do? She did what a good aide does — covered up for them. She said she remembered the call but was unable to give any specifics.
It was not the only time she offered a version of history that improved the administration's image but did not square with the facts. Administration officials had argued the 9/11 attacks could not have been anticipated because no one could have imagined that terrorists would use planes to fly into buildings. But that was before the White House reluctantly made public the Presidential Daily Brief of Aug. 6, 2001. When asked at the 9/11 commission hearings what the title of that PDB was, Rice said she believed it was "Bin Laden Determined to Attack in U.S." Unflappable and undeterred, she insisted on adding that the information in the report was historical and did not warn of attacks inside the United States. (Presumably, if the date, time and place of the attack had all been specified in the report, the White House would have reacted to the threat.) Clearly, Rice is very adept at maintaining that what the White House asserts is true because the White House says it's true.

Baking 101: Secrets of the Scone
Recipes from Twinkle's Kitchen
Scones are one of those pastries that I always reserve for special occasions, you know, like Saturday morning. It's perfection in pastry form, and I love baking them almost as much as eating them.
These sweet biscuit delights are best served warm, and can bring together beautiful combinations of sweet and savory flavors.
There are a few rules, however, I highly recommend for minimizing your fail-factor and producing super-amazing scones.
Make sure to use the right flour. Pastry flour, which is lower protein flour, will make your scones softer and flakier. Higher protein or high gluten flour (like bread flour) will create tougher, heavier scones.
Keep it cold
Make sure you keep your ingredients chilled. Always use the coldest butter and keep liquids refrigerated until ready to use. You can also chill your mixing bowl for better results.
What's the deal with the chill?
When your butter is kept cold, the butter will be distributed through your dough in tiny chunks. Once in the oven, the butter will melt, leaving tiny pockets throughout the dough. Voila! Moist, buttery layers!
Don't over do it
Kneading converts the proteins in the flour to gluten – even with low protein flour. The more kneading, the tougher and chewier your scones will become. Only mix the ingredients until they just come together, like when making biscuits or piedough.
Just baked
Try to watch your scones and not fall victim to overbaking. Set a timer, but keep an eye on the oven. You'll want to pull them out just as they brown and slide them immediately onto a wire rack to cool.
Candied Orange and Ginger Scones
- 2 ¼ cups pastry flour
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 tbs. baking powder
- ½ tsp. sea salt
- ¼ tsp. vanilla
- ¾ cup chilled unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- ¾ cup plus 1 tablespoon heavy cream
- ½ cup finely diced crystallized ginger
- ½ cup finely diced candied orange peel
- 2 tbs. heavy cream for brushing on top of scones before baking
- 2 tbs. sugar for sprinkling scones before baking
Preheat oven to 400˚F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Blend dry ingredients in your mixer with the paddle attachment on low speed.
Add butter in small batches until mixture resembles coarse meal.
Add the 3/4 cup cream and vanilla, mixing on low until just moist. If the dough seems dry, add the extra tablespoon of heavy cream.
Mix in the crystallized ginger and orange peel.
Pour out dough onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead until smooth – less than 10 turns.
Gently pat down your dough about 1" thick and cut into shapes of your choice
I suggest using a large jar lid or cutting your scone dough into wedges.
Trying to keep your fingertips off the dough because it will melt the butter.
Place your scones onto your pan and brush the tops with the remaining heavy cream, then lightly sprinkle the sugar.
Bake scones until light brown, about 18-20 minutes.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

We went up for the Maggie Valley Christmas Parade & stayed at the Riverlet. This was our 2nd or 3rd time staying there & we Love It. The rooms are very clean which is the most important thing to me. Staff could not have been nicer. We slept with our windows open & enjoyed the sound of the water running in the creek. Rates are excellent & it is just a good place to go to when you need to relax. Location is wonderful because you can walk anywhere you need to go in Maggie Valley. We have recommended it to friends & hopefully will be back there in the next few weeks. Yes it is an older hotel but the character makes up for it. I personally perfer Mom & Pop lodging than the big chains that have lots of noise all night long. At the Riverlet you will get a good nights sleep.

Sharps Collection Program
Since July 1, 2012, a statewide ban on the disposal of sharps in solid municipal waste/household trash will took effect. The majority of needles, lancets and syringes had been thrown away in household trash putting neighbors, children and solid waste workers at risk of needle stick injuries and infections. These items should never be disposed of improperly. The Board of Health Office (since late 2009) has and will continue to accept sharps such as lancets, needles, syringes, and unopened sharps.

Obama carries anti-war message to rallies
BOULDER, Colo. — Campaigning in the adoring embrace of yet another college audience, President Obama blasted Republican nominee Mitt Romney on Sunday for ignoring the war in Afghanistan at the GOP convention, and suggested that his rival will prolong the war if elected president.
"This November you get to decide the future of the Afghanistan war," Mr. Obama told about 13,000 mostly young supporters at an outdoor rally at the University of Colorado at Boulder. "Gov. Romney had nothing to say about Afghanistan last week. We are bringing our troops home from Afghanistan. I set a timetable and we will have them all out by 2014. Gov. Romney doesn't have a timetable."
Earlier in the weekend, speaking to a college audience in Iowa, Mr. Obama said Mr. Romney hasn't explained "if he's going to end" the war.
The president's remarks came as Vice President Joseph R. Biden, campaigning Sunday in Pennsylvania, said Mr. Romney is "ready to go to war in Syria and Iran."
The Romney campaign attempted to brush off Mr. Obama's attack and turn the country's focus instead to the weak economy, asking voters if they are better off than they were four years ago. Even a prominent Obama surrogate, Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, had to admit Sunday the answer is "no."
Mr. Obama is touring battleground states on his way to accepting the nomination Thursday at the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, N.C. He's carrying an anti-war message to his campaign rallies, many of which are set on college campuses where youthful voters helped to propel the president to victory four years ago.
Aware of the disillusionment this year among voters younger than 30 who can't find jobs, the president is portraying Mr. Romney to these young audiences as a risky choice militarily. Settings such as left-leaning Boulder are especially receptive; someone outside the rally Sunday held a sign that proclaimed "No attack on Iran!"
"He hasn't offered a plan for the 33,000 troops who will have come home from the war by the end of this month," Mr. Obama said of his rival. "He said ending the war in Iraq was tragic. I think it was the right thing to do, and I said I would do it, and we did it. We've got more troops we've got to bring home."
That line from the president's stump speech drew one of the loudest roars of approval of the weekend.
Romney campaign spokesman Eric Fehrnstrom countered Sunday that, although Mr. Romney didn't mention Afghanistan in his convention speech last week, the Republican nominee "talked about Afghanistan" a day earlier at a gathering of the American Legion in Indianapolis.
The Obama campaign promptly pointed out that Mr. Romney's discussion of Afghanistan with the American Legion consisted of one comment: "We are still at war in Afghanistan."
Obama campaign officials said in a statement: "It's no surprise Romney has declined to discuss the issue — Romney has attacked the President's plan for bringing our troops home and suggested that he is open to leaving them in Afghanistan indefinitely, but has refused to lay out his own plan for our brave men and women who are there. Americans deserve more in a Commander-in-Chief."
Weekly Standard editor William Kristol also criticized Mr. Romney for failing to mention the troops in his speech, writing that it gives Mr. Obama an opportunity to exploit at the Democratic convention.
The president's pre-convention tour is also focused on portraying the Republican ticket as short on ideas to improve the economy and dishonest with voters about their plans.
"There was a lot of talk about hard truths and bold choices," Mr. Obama said. "But the interesting thing was, nobody ever bothered to tell us what they were. It's not just because they know you won't like it. They are exhausted of ideas."
Romney campaign officials say it's Mr. Obama's ideas that have failed. They pointed to the comments of Mr. O'Malley, who was asked Sunday on CBS' "Face the Nation" by host Bob Schieffer: "Can you honestly say that people are better off today than they were four years ago?"
"No, but that's not the question of this election," Mr. O'Malley replied, blaming President George W. Bush for the nation's economic condition.
David Plouffe, Mr. Obama's senior adviser in the White House, also declined to answer "yes or no" three times on Sunday when asked on ABC's "This Week" if the country is better off than in 2008.
Rep. Paul Ryan, Wisconsin Republican and the GOP's vice presidential nominee, said Mr. O'Malley's admission "is more proof that President Obama's policies aren't working." "President Obama's failure of leadership has led to 42 straight months of unemployment above 8 percent, 23 million Americans struggling for work, $5 trillion in new debt and a $716 billion cut in Medicare to fund Obamacare," Mr. Ryan said in a statement.
"While Team Obama continues their campaign of fear and division, we are talking about the big issues that Americans face. That's why we have a plan to strengthen the middle class and create 12 million jobs, protect Medicare, and cut the federal deficit so our economy can start growing again."
The president said he will offer "a better path forward" Thursday night when he accepts his renomination at the Democratic convention.
"It's a path that will grow this economy, create more jobs, and strengthen the middle class," he said.

Acute Myelogenous Leukemia—Adult
Acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) is a cancer of the blood and bone marrow. With AML, the bone marrow makes abnormal blood cells including:
- Myeloblasts—a type of white blood cell; white blood cells fight infection
- Red blood cells (RBCs)—carry oxygen
- Platelets—makes blood clot, stops bleeding in cuts or bruises
AML begins in immature myeloblasts and progresses very quickly. It may also be the end state of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML).
Cancer occurs when cells in the body become abnormal. They divide without control or order. Leukemia is cancer of the white blood cells and their parent cells. Leukemia cells do not function normally. They cannot do what normal blood cells do. In this case, they can not fight infections. This means that the person is more likely to become infected with viruses or bacteria. The cancerous cells also overgrow the bone marrow. This forces other normal components, like platelets out. Platelets are needed to help the blood clot. As a result, people with leukemia may bleed more easily.
White Blood Cells
The cause of AML is unknown. However, smoking after age 60 doubles the risk of this condition.

Can you imagine shopping before the internet? With Pinterest and Polyvore, you can keep great finds in one place and purchase with one click. Here's what I'm loving this week:
Read MorePlain and simple: I love coffee. There are days when I don't speak a word or do anything productive until I've had at least one cup. Mostly, it's the routine. I enjoy the smell of the brewing bean. I savor that first sip. There are always conflicting reports -- coffee is acidic and should be avoided; coffee helps with endurance training; tea has antioxidants; all types of caffeine should be avoided at all costs. To be honest, who knows. But the great folks at Greatist have broken it down for us -- an infographic detailing the ins-and-outs of coffee and tea.
Read MoreThis was the first year I even considered venturing out into the Black Friday sales, but then my sister made a great point: they offer many of the same bargains online, without the craziness of in-store shopping! Rather than battling the shopping crowds on Friday, many a tech savvy shopper are waiting until today -- Cyber Monday to cross items off their list. Friday in-store shopping is an experience I'm sure, but if you'd prefer to shop from the comforts of your computer with a cup of coffee or tea, I have the shopping links for you.
Read Morehe first Thanksgiving on Plymouth Rock happened in 1621, but did you know the first official Thanksgiving National holiday wasn't on the books or on calendars until Abraham Lincoln declared such in 1863? Why, then, do we associate Thanksgiving with the Pilgrims? And how did Pumpkin Pie find it's way to the table? Read on.
Read MoreSince 2000, this speech has been circulating on the internet and attributed to Bill Gates, which is incorrect. It is a list of fourteen things you did not learn in school, directed at high school and college grads, taken as an excerpt from the book "Dumbing Down our Kids" by educator Charles Sykes.
Read MoreEveryone knows that hosting a soirée can be a huge undertaking. Between planning a tasty menu, purchasing all of the necessary food and alcohol, and making sure the house is guest-ready, by the time it's party time, who even wants to party?
Read MoreAt many a Tex Mex restaurant, the vegetarian/vegan menu is often short, with offerings listed such as bean burrito, rice and beans or a salad. But a national chain upped the ante and created a game-changer for those who avoid meat by adding tofu to their menu and calling them Sofritas. The brand, staying true to its messaging, while growing the brand's offering, has maintained their "healthy eating, locally sourced" promise.
Read MoreI'm a big fan of holiday gift guides, primarily because it plays host to gifts that I haven't seen or even knew existed. This year, I was asked to curate not one, but two separate publications, which meant that I had to (not that I minded one bit!) spend a few hours online in search of fabulous finds and fun gifts. Read on to see mine, and others, gift selections for 2013.

Bahrainis hold protest rally at UN
Manama, January 28, 2012
More than 5,000 people staged a rally outside the UN House in Bahrain condemning the violent protests in the country and urged the international body to come out with a permanent solution.
Al Fateh Awakening movement staged the event under the theme, 'Hands off Bahrain,' in a bid to send a clear message to foreign parties to 'back off'.
They said the people in Bahrain were sick and tired of violent protests and foreign interference and demanded a permanent solution.
Participants also condemned all those who are trying to create a rift in the society and tarnish the nation's reputation.
The event's media co-ordinator Anas Bomtaia earlier said Iran, the US and Hizbollah are trying to spread their influence in Bahrain and it has to be stopped.
The group is also sending its evidence in a letter to the UN. It condemned a recent sermon by Shi'ite cleric Shaikh Isa Qassim, who called on his congregation to "crush policemen".
"Our country has made great strides in many fields with the efforts of its loyal people. But no-one feels safe, as anything can happen to anyone at any time. If they can attack our unarmed policemen, they can attack anyone," Bomtaia said.-TradeArabia News Service

Mr John HagganJohn Haggan was born in Belfast, Co Down, Ireland (modern-day Northern Ireland) on 11 April 1877. He was the son of Edward Haggan (1856-1928) and Mary Magee (1858-1929) who had been married in Belfast in 1876. John's siblings were Robert (b. 1876), Agnes (b. 1879), James (b. 1885), Sarah (b. 1886), Eliza Jane (b. 1888), Edward (b. 1887), Thomas (b. 1890), Samuel (b. 1891) and Mary Ann (b. 1893) and Alexander (b. 1894). In the late-1890s John joined the Royal Horse Artillery and served during the Boer War. In 1901 he was part of the procession at Queen Victoria's Funeral. John does not appear on the 1901 census of Ireland. On the 1911 census he is living at 53 Thorndyke Street, Pottinger, Castlereagh, East Belfast, the home of his younger brother James and his family and it is indicated that he is literate and comes from a Presbyterian background. His profession is listed as shipyard labourer and he is unmarried. John initially signed-on to the Titanic in Belfast for the delivery trip to Southampton. When he signed-on again, in Southampton, on 6 April 1912 he gave his address as the Sailors' Home, Southampton. His last ship had been the Braehead and as a fireman he received monthly wages of £6. Haggan survived the sinking, possibly on boat 3. John Haggan returned to England on the Lapland shortly after the Carpathia arrived in New York City. John, who did not like to discuss the Titanic disaster, continued to live in Belfast, surrounded by his extended family. He never married and later lived at 49 Thorndyke Street, East Belfast. He died in the Royal Victoria Hospital on 13 January 1952, aged 74. He was buried in a family plot (C4-670/C4-671) with his parents and several of his siblings in Dundonald Cemetery, Dundonald, Co Down. References and Sources
