As a user however I do not care that the MPI implementation of the fortran interface is more complicated. That's stuff to worry about for the MPI implementors only. > > Even if you implement all of the wrappers in a MorphMPI approach, > nothing guarantee you that you can take an Fortran MorphMPI compliant > application and link it with a MorhMPI compliant MPI library compiled > with a different Fortran compiler. Fortran is evil. As long as the calling convention (who and how the arguments are put on the stack) is the same the library can be linked with programs compiled with a different compilers AFAICT. I'm into C++ and do not like Fortran neither very much but I'm just being pragmatic here.

Hmmmm... getting a little hard to decipher.
Karl Rove needs to retire. Or become a bundler and nothing more. His political machinations are obnoxious and unhelpful.
But what about all his little hand-drawn charts he adores?
One commenter on Breitbart site said that no liberal or Democratic politicians appear on Fox News. Then why do I have to mute or change channels so often? Ignorance or malice spotted.
The so-called establishment Republicans, or the Democrat Party lite if you wish, appears to have always been happy to go along to get along with the liberal Democrats, as long as they can maintain a minority position in national politics where they can also get their palms greased.It is easy to see why the wimpy Republicans have also been called the Stupid Party for so long. The liberal media has their number, as was shown during the run up to the election, when the liberal media posed what amount to gotcha questions out of the blue, and got two Republican senatorial candidates to make dumb and off the wall comments about the effects of rape on women, a complex issue that has nothing to do with the job of a US Senator, causing the Republicans to loose two senate seats that they should have won.
Hey Karl, those Tea Party guys are me, my family, my ancestors, my values. And by the way they don´t spell their first name like Karl Marx.
So he admits he really doesn´t understand what is happening. Way to go Karl.
Karl, your surprise. Is it greater than the one you got on the last election night? You were mighty surprised then, too.
Karl Rove has done some remarkable things for conservatives. But it´s always when he works behind the scene. Ever since he became a celebrity, I just don´t like him any more.
Sounds like Karl is trying to remain relevant.

LONGMONT, CO (KUSA/NBC) - McKell and Tyler Barlow say their 2-month-old daughter is being exposed to marijuana smoke from a neighboring apartment almost daily.
The Barlows say the pot smoke is coming into their apartment through a vent from a neighboring unit.
They've tried calling their landlord, the police and even child-protective services.
Because smoking pot at home is legal under Colorado law, they say nobody can help.
"I can't take my 2-month-old daughter into the apartment because it smells like marijuana," McKell Barlow said.
Many doctors believe the effects of secondhand marijuana smoke are similar to secondhand tobacco smoke.
McKell Barlow says she's forced to spend much of her time with her kids outside.

A Followup To The CNBC Freakout
The Zerohedge angle is a little more interesting. Zerohedge believes that the CNBC personalities (notably Bob Pisani and Steve Liesman) root for Fed central planning. They link to a report that shows volume going down when the Fed intervenes and so the more they root for Fed intervention the more volume will decrease so Zerohedge concludes that CNBC is unknowingly rooting for their own demise--or maybe they do realize they are rooting for their own demise, the article seems to be saying both.
Zerohedge is a very useful outlet. They are very quick to tweet any sort of news and most of it relevant. Their own content reads well and seems to understand the subject very well and they re-run a lot of useful content from other sources. That being said they appear to be overtly rooting for the end of the world. We can learn from what they write about even if we don't draw the same conclusion.
While I am not certain what the exact outcome would be from the "central planning" they wrote about in this post it is clear that the outcome would be very bad. It is not logical to think that the Fed, the media or anyone else is proactively seeking out this outcome. Stumbling into a bad outcome because of poor decisions or poor execution is a different matter.
It seems pretty clear that interest in markets was fallen precipitously. Twelve years ago day trading was very popular as were markets in general. Do you remember the first season of the show Survivor? The episode where a couple of relatives stayed with the survivors for the night and truck driver Sue Hawk asked how the Nasdaq was doing; ding.
Layer on top of that the recognition on the part of baby boomers that retirement was coming fairly soon and the interest that created followed by the disillusionment stemming from the S&P 500 being below where it was 12 years ago. Yet one more layer is the 20-somethings and 30-somethings who appear to have no faith in the stock market and depending on what you read no hope for a comfortable retirement due to poor market returns their entire adult life and a government facing fiscal threats that appear to be unprecedented.
Where too many people were interested in markets in 2000 perhaps the pendulum of excess as swung in the other direction now? Clearly a lot of people have given up (for now?) on markets because of the above and there are probably other contributing factors as well.
Hopefully I am not perceived as the cheerleader type but capital markets will continue to function. Whatever is bad about them will continue to be bad, whatever is good will continue to be good, people participating in markets will continue to succumb to emotion at the wrong time and while not all investment products are bad; scrutiny will always be required.
Tobacco companies will continue to profitably sell cigarettes and pay out dividends. Kids in foreign countries will continue to want to emulate NBA stars and buy Nike shoes (we've owned NKE for clients since 2006) and if you take medicine you are very likely to continue taking it which is of course good for drug companies. There are countless other examples too.
What might change is the number of people who remain active in the markets. The numbers seem to be going down but that won't prevent some stocks and markets from flourishing and others from floundering. This is one element to my long running thesis about average annual returns in the US markets being less than what they used to be (this is a theme going back to the start of this site in 2004). At the same time though many foreign markets will go on without the US (another very long running theme) as has been the case over the last ten years.
A successful financial plan typically requires contributions and some amount of growth. If the growth component is removed (for choosing to avoid capital markets) then more must be contributed and this can work but market will continue to grow even if that means the US is not one of them. In that light it makes sense to spend the time learning which markets have the best chance of "normal" growth (or better than normal) and not give up.
A related personal item; yesterday we met with a couple of people with AdvisorShares who are in town for a conference. The conversation was very productive and the timeline for moving the relationship forward is in track for early July which we are thrilled with.

Looking forward to investing a chunk of my "hard-earned" bucks with your etf, random; congratulations. When your etf debuts, and you are officially a big-shot etf manager, will you still respond to questions on this blog from us lowly investors?
But seriously, do you see your new 'thing' cutting into the time you devote to this blog? - 1:31 PM

The most logical way for a portfolio manager to take on managing a mutual fund would be to treat that fund as if it were like any other client.
This is easier in that all the clients (including the fund) buy or sell XYZ at the same time. This is also relevant for compliance reasons as well. - 1:35 PM

Not sure if or how you can legally answer this question but here goes.
Is there any advantage/disadvantage to putting a chunk of money in your new etf vs having you manage the same amount of money through your firm directly? I suspect the costs for the two approaches would be a bit different. I've been thinking about this for a while. To guide your thinking, the amount of money involved would be substantial. I believe that in the past you have classified larger accounts as being six figures or so?
Thanks, - 4:25 PM
- Roger Nusbaum said...
In considering whether to hire an investment manager or simply buy a fund that an investment manager might run there are several considerations and no single answer.
Some things to consider might include the expense ratio of the fund versus the management fee for a separate account.
Other considerations would also include what the investor thinks he needs. Some people do need planning help and some do not--help with financial planning goes along with separate account management whereas anonymously owning fund has no such service.
Just two examples, neither choice is wrong. - 4:34 PM

Wintry weather arrived for the second time in as many days in Culpeper Tuesday covering the area with less than a quarter-inch of snow, according to the National Weather Service station at the Culpeper County Airport. It was enough to close schools here for the second day in a row as well as in the surrounding counties of Fauquier, Orange, Madison and Rappahannock.

A lot of you got taken in 2012 by people who make a living by preying on the vulnerable.
According to the Western Virginia Better Business Bureau, the number one Emergency Scam for 2012 to hit this area falls in line with the Grandparent Scam. A new form of it is keeping at least one taxi cab company in Salem busy. An anonymous person for instance calls the taxi company and tells them to go pick up a person, usually a grandparent. From there they take them to a place where they can wire money to whoever is supposedly in distress.
As for the number one Home Improvement Scam, that distinction goes to those bogus storm chasers. Many so-called contractors were unlicensed and did poor jobs after a catastrophic weather event.
The top Medical Scam centered around Medicare. Crooks targeted older adults telling them their Medicare card was being replaced and they needed their bank account information.
Finally, with many of you looking for work, several of you fell for the top Employment Scam. You decided to become a mystery shopper. Instead of signing up with a legit company however, you sent in some of your money as a fee to supposedly get started.
The BBB reports 2012 also saw a 17 percent jump in the number of business complaints, more than 3,500 of them. The business that got hammered the most last year was Adventis, a telemarketing company that targets people looking to sell a car.

The Vengeance 2000 software: everything you need to know.
By Dylan Rhodes posted Jun 01st 2012
The control panel for the Vengeance 2000 Wireless 7.1 Gaming Headset is clean and simple, with everything on one control surface. Here's a quick walk-through of what it does.
Surround Bypass
The large button labelled "Bypass" at the upper left takes its name and functionality from pro audio gear. When lit, the surround sound functionality is disabled, and the Vengeance 2000 operates as a standard stereo headset.
The surround configuration panel at the lower right allows you to select from three simulated environment sizes.
Room simulation is important; it's the key to realistic positional audio. It's accomplished by adding very subtle amounts of echo, delay and reverb to the audio signal to fool your brain into thinking that you're listening to audio in a real environment — that is, from speakers in a room. Without this processing, audio can have that "in your head" effect that can lead to what's commonly known as ear fatigue.
The Vengeance 2000: has a nicely tuned response curve that delivers a pleasing amount of bass in its default state. It also has the dynamic range to support a lot of headroom for equalization.
We've provided several presets for various gaming genres to get you started. You can save your own by clicking the + button after you've adjusted the equalization to your liking. Then, enter the name for your new profile in the pop-up, and it will be added to the pull-down list for easy selection.
Select a profile and click the minus button, and you'll get a pop-up confirming that you'd like to remove the currently selected profile.
More on the presets that come with the software:
Default contains no equalization — all the sliders are set to 0 dB.
When we launched our audio products a few years ago, we added some team members with extensive background in professional audio and high-end home audio. That's why we have the Audiophile 1, Audiophile 1+, Audiophile 2, and Audiophile 2+ presets — something you might not expect to find on a gaming headset. Audiophile 1 and Audiophile 1+ have a slightly brighter and "open" sound image, and Audiophile 2 and Audiophile 2+ have a warmer and more "mellow" sound image. Audiophile 1/1+ are well-suited for critical listening, and make it slightly easier to pick out the details on good audio recordings, like the key clicks on a saxophone.
FPS Gaming and MMO Gaming are similar. FPS has slightly higher bass and high-end responses, while the MMO preset has a small increase in the mid-range. The FPS preset is optimized for enjoying all those explosions and ambient sounds, while maintaining the positional audio that's essential for situational awareness and knowing where your enemies are. The MMO preset's mid-range boost helps with clarity when communicating with your teammates.
Movies Mod-X helps restore the theatrical experience when watching films. Film audio is typically mastered to an equalization curve called the "X Curve," which is optimized to make the audio sound great when you're sitting in a theatre — that is, a large room with the speakers far away. If the audio isn't remastered when the film's released on disc and for downloading, it won't sound as good as it can. Selecting Mod-X addresses this.
The Reference EQ preset "flattens" the output of the headset, so that if you were to look at the frequency response on test equipment, it would be closer to a flat line. It's a good starting point for making further EQ adjustments to suit your tastes.
Headphone Volume and Microphone Level
The sliders on the left do what you'd expect: adjust the headphone volume and microphone level. They map to the volume and microphone level controls built in to Windows. The volume controller on the headset has the same functionality.
And that's it — nice and simple. As always, if you have any questions, you can get in touch with us on our forums.

The EU and Ireland - the importance of being close to Boston and Brussels
Posted on Friday, October 14, 2011 at 08:32 AM

- Remembering two giants, Seamus Heaney and David Frost
During the tremulous time following the 1992 general election, the embattled Taoiseach Albert Reynolds was handed a lifeline. With his grasp on power hanging in the balance, Reynolds went to an EU summit in Edinburgh at the end of that year and secured £8billion in European structural funds. Even his most optimistic supporters were expecting something closer to six. Emboldened, Reynolds told his press secretary, "Now watch me put a government together".
That money was not only was an instrumental element in keeping Reynolds in power, it also became a vital element of policy. In the years since 1992, all manner of capital projects have the EU's starry prints all over it. From the Luas and the M50 to research facilities and local enterprise boards, and whether it's widely known or accepted or not, the EU's structural funds helped build an entire national infrastructure.
Small wonder then that the EU's Open Days event, run by the Directorate General for Regional Policy, is such a big draw. It's the single biggest event the EU hosts every year, with thousands of interested parties coming from every townland in Europe. This year, I was one of them.
A couple of things struck me from the start. First, structural funds may not be the silver bullet they once were, both because of relative year-on-year improvements and the banking cataclysm, but they're still vital as a means of realising key investments. The second thing I found striking was how clear the focus was on what those key investments would be: emerging business and research. It may have been roads in the past, but from here on in, it's SME and R&D.
There were other talking points and debates that ran through the week. "Macroeconomic conditionality" became the unlikely catchphrase of the whole event, with a strenuous debate revolving round whether sanctioning regions or countries that don't use their funds properly would disproportionately affect the poorest countries who needed the money most. Then there was the issue of credit. For once in a European context, we weren't referring to the debt kind.
Often, money distributed to the respective government departments of Europe is appropriated as such. Since any structural fund money has to be matched by national governments, the European influence can often be underplayed or lost altogether. In a time when passive Euroscepticism is becoming more and more fashionable, the way the EU asserts itself in this regard is becoming more and more important.
Plenary sessions and debates aside there were also a host of seminars where people could showcase the ways they used their funding. One particularly interesting session involved Holland and its approach to tackling youth unemployment, the scope of which puts our own much-maligned Job Bridge to shame.
Over the next weeks I'll be considering the finer points of some of the issues brought up in Brussels, and with the announcement in the last week of The Gathering in 2013, it's important to balance the relationship with our friends within and without Europe. Being close to Boston doesn't mean we have to ignore Berlin.

the Republic no longer has control of it`s economy or interest rates since joining the single currency. The european Union was supposed to be a Free Trade area but has morphed into a political and economic programme akin to a fledgling United States of Europe where the European courts make the laws and have precedence over Irish courts. It wouldn`t be so bad if it was inherently democratic but most of the power and unelected quangos on craz wages are not accountable to the people and the elected European Parliaments doesn`t actually wield very much power compared to other unelected EU institutions

Unwanted Stabilitrak / Traction Control features
Does anybody know of a way to disable or turn off the Stabilitrak and Traction control features on a 2009 4x4 Z71 Silverado? I do a lot of off-roading and have been really frustrated when those features kick in and limit your wheel spin and cut the power to your engine. I've read the owners manual and tried pushing the button on the dash for 5 seconds to "temporarily turn off" this feature but found that it won't actually do it as I have conducted multiple tests and the engine retarder and braking systems still kick in when the wheels start to spin. Does anyone have any ideas?
03-04-2013, 05:13 PM #2Disabling the traction control is very easy, just push the traction control button and the DIC will report traction control off. To disable Stabilitrak, push and hold the Traction Control/Stabilitrak button until the DIC reports Stabilitrak AND traction control is disabled. Please RTFM!!!
Remember, Stabilitrak AND Traction Control will be re-enabled when you re-start the vehicle.

Ok, as I stated in my post - I did "RTFM" and have tried to use that control on my dash to turn off both the TC and Stabilitrak but it doesn't truly disable those features. In 4x4 High with those turned off the computer still will defeat the engine and apply the breaks if it senses that the wheels are spinning. So, what else you got?
03-04-2013, 06:50 PM #4I apologize, I did not see that.
Also there is no "5 seconds" in the manual. Does the DIC on your dash read that traction control and stabilitrak have both been disabled?
It looks like both stabilitrak and traction control are disabled when in 4LO.
IIRC, there is a fuse that can be pulled, but this also disables ABS.

I found that 4 Low is supposed to be the only mode that you can be in and not activate TC or Stabilitrak but in some situations you need 4 High (long hill climbs, mud/snow, etc.). There is section of the manual that says press and hold that button for five seconds and that is supposed to turn off both TC and Stabilitrak and the DIC on my dash does display those messages but as I said before, it doesn't really do it. I could live without ABS off road - if it is as simple as pulling a fuse I am interested in trying it.
Tires digging in while the brakes are locked would fall more under tire tread and traction available. And believe it or not 4 wheelers were driving like this many years before ABS was installed on vehicles. ABS registers wheel speed, or lack of it and releases the wheel to rotate before it locks up, so in certain off-road conditions like extremely slick mud or a down hill slope with loose soil you could end up with the brakes never actually activating and instead of stopping you continue to roll. In certain situations a little tire dragging and building a mound of dirt in front of the tire can be all that stops you.
If you disable the ABS what will happen is your vehicle has the possibility of locking up one or more tires when you press the brake pedal. The upside of this is the system wont know when you have wheel spin so it wont be able to retard power to the other wheels.
Disabling ABS systems has been priority 1 for many off-roaders over the years because ABS hinders the capabilities of a vehicle in extremely slick or low traction situations, removing the C/B is one way to accomplish deactivating the TC system but with the computers being used now I'm not sure it works 100%, you might want to find an empty field to experiment in before you hit the trails, and be sure you put the C/B back in when getting back on paved roads, these trucks dont handle well at all on pavement with things deactivated.
03-05-2013, 09:54 PM #9OK I understand what you were saying now.
ABS has been an issue for years with the off-road crowd, when I bought my 99 Tacoma TRD I waited until I was stationed in Sicily since by buying it over there it was a US standard truck that was legal to import but didnt have ABS, my 98 Tacoma TRD had ABS and the off-road performance between the two trucks was like night and day even though they were equipped exactly alike except for the ABS.
Pretty sad having to sell a year old truck and buy an similarly equipped new truck just to delete the ABS.

Harlequins World 7s skipper Ward has an eye on a big future for the competition
11:39am Monday 19th August 2013 in Sport By Ziad Chaudry
Harlequins captain Dave Ward reckons the World Club 7s will grow into a major tournament on the rugby calendar.
The reigning LV= Cup champions finished a creditable fourth in the inaugural event last weekend at Twickenham Stadium.
They defeated fellow Aviva Premiership side Gloucester 19-7 in the quarter-finals before bowing out in the semis to Auckland Rugby 31-14.
It was sweet revenge for the New Zealand-based outfit who suffered the exact score line in the pool stages.
However, Auckland were narrowly edged 17-14 by this season's Super Rugby finalist from Australia, ACT Brumbies.
Quins were heavily beaten in the third place play-off game by Argentina's Buenos Aires 31-7 with Henry Cheeseman getting the solitary points for the Twickenham side.
Despite the two defeats in the final day Ward was pleased with his side's effort.
The former England U18 and U21 hooker said: "We came here to show what Harlequins rugby is all about and we did that.
"Rugby sevens I think is going to go from strength to strength in the next few years.
"We had decent crowd out here, almost as much as the national sevens event."
He added: "Playing against the likes of ACT Brumbies, Vodacom Blue Bulls and Auckland was a dream come true for a lot of us.
"The Quins fans did a fantastic job supporting us and this feels like a home tournament for us."

My band 8 Minutes To Burn shared the stage with them at the Bisbee Royale and I remember being captivated by their soothing sounds and the laughter that filled the room when Amy made a funny comment. It was a great night to be introduced to them and when I think of them that is the night I will remember!
every body deserves to be happy,,,, let him be....... every one of us worth of love and to be love........ why cant you guys give him a little bit chances,,,, theres nothing wrong with it,,,, godbless and take care.....
This connection they had between them as well as with the audience is what drew me to them to play at my wedding in 2008. They played the day before, the wedding and the reception and infused the event with their particular joy. I saw them two years later at the Copper Queen where I bought their CD and they signed it for me. My marriage like the two of them is gone, but these two wonderful people will stay in the hearts of all who sat entranced by their music. Rest in peace dear Amy and Derrick, and my heart goes out to their families.
She declined to share her age? 40 must be about two years away. Embrace it.
I would like to know why John Aston isn't in the band.
Best of Tucson out there right now!
Always did like that band. Love the raw sound and the randomness some songs have.
Saw Richard and Tim in Charlotte at The Chop Shop on July 31st and was blown away by Richard's presence on stage and how tight the entire band sounds. I don't think many who have heard the Furs recently would dispute that they sound better today than ever before. And Richard's smile and pure joy is nothing short of infectious. One regret is that we didn't bring our 11 and 14-year-old children - this set would be a fantastic experience to share forward with the next generation. Hope they keep touring and that we'll have the chance to see them in North Carolina once again. Favorites from the 90+ minute set: Heaven; Love My Way; Heartbreak Beat; The Ghost In You.
Saw the Furs last year in Bristol UK. Simply stunning. Met Richard and his young lady in the city centre prior to the gig. Had a good chat with them. Can't wait for new material.
This puto ain't got shit on cavities . None of those tats r from prison, but he wants you to think they are. Tell this fuckin actor to come to my hood westeren hills lets see how tuff he is when he ain't Rollin w hipster emo down town left wing homos
Robust -and- mystical! A great artist and a fun read; thanks.
Seconded, except I saw them in Kansas City at the Midland. Heard some great songs from that first album!
Just came from the concert..so awesome to see such an iconic band in Tucson at the Rialto!!
A fantastic group from the 80"s Just what Tucson needs right now some fresh live talent. Please come and entertain us we need the excitment especially before these 100 degree days! So I will be at the Rialto come out and join us

...I'm not sure why Tucson native and current Devo drummer Jeff Friedl rarely if ever gets mentioned in the local music media. He moved to California years ago and eventually worked/works with A Perfect Circle, Ashes Divide, The Beta Machine, Devo, Carina Round, Filter and Puscifer.
I like the "Wayback Machine" reference, but as a bit of an aficionado of Peabody's Improbable History from the Rocky and Bullwinkle Show, I'd like to point out the correct spelling is "WABAC", though it was pronounced as spelled in the article. I believe it was a play on UNIVAC and other hi-tech names from back in the day.
Sherman, set the WABAC machine to Rio de Janeiro, 1968.
Can't wait for this show!
66 years old now..and Nam Vet moniker is just getting glue.....not sure you all get it yet... though.. Big war does not work. Big planes are for big planes. Big bombs are for Raytheon. We can only win with a moral force of honest and decent forms of governing. So far, we are not the best models of behavior. Patriot to the bone, but not a supporter of either dominant party.... We have to come clean about our motives....China does. Saudi Arabia does.. ergo the reason they loan us so much money...irony being....they believe more in the democratic process than we do....if not they would not loan so much money....get it yet?
Tegan and Sara have performed at least twice in Tucson before, in 2007 at the Rialto, and in 2004, when they opened for Melissa Ferrick at Club Congress.

Goal Accomplished!!!! - Stacia Naquin
Updated: 2:48 PM - I finally did my pull up!!! It was a New Year's Resolution that took me ALL YEAR! But I did it.
The latest data from Colorado Springs police indicates a total of 85 burglaries occurred during the Waldo Canyon fire evacuations.
The 85 cases include 42 burglarized homes and 43 burglaries of vehicles. Police call those "confirmed" burglaries and did not release data about any that were unconfirmed.
At last report, the total was 65 burglaries. CSPD spokesperson Barbara Miller says the numbers were updated due to their research in updating and determining which cases had a direct correlation to the evacuation.
11 News also asked for data about vandalism in the evacuation area. CSPD reported no reports of vandalism during that period.
Colorado Springs police have set up a $50,000 reward for information that leads to additional arrests. If several tips lead to arrests, the money will be split accordingly.
Anyone with information about those crimes is asked to call 719-385-2222.

Is Obama White House willing to jeopardize national security for political gain?

Recent revelations that leaks of the most highly sensitive military intelligence operations emanated from the White House, have triggered FBI investigations. Additionally, last Friday Attorney General Eric Holder announced he appointed 2 Deputy Attorney Generals to investigate the source of these leaks.
Security experts have been quoted they have never seen the magnitude of such leaks in their experience. These leaks could be responsible for the deaths of many who work in the clandestine world of intelligence and result in the crippling of America's ability to defend itself in the war on terror. But the leaks all have one thing in common: They portray President Obama in a good light.
Did leaks result in deaths to SEAL Team 6?
Last year, as news was released from the White House regarding the successful operation in the killing of Osama Bin laden in Pakistan, you could hear a collective gasp from the intelligence community as major details of the operation were released to the public. Those details included identifying SEAL Team 6 as the military team performing the successful operation.
Military intelligence experts were horrified to hear even the mention of this highly trained team being involved in this operation and feared for reprisals against team members and their families. Just 3 months later, a helicopter loaded with SEAL Team 6 personnel, many the same ones involved in the Osama Bin Laden operation, was shot down in Afghanistan. 31 members of the team perished when that helicopter was hit with a Taliban missile. Coincidence?
Major setback in effort to stop Irans nuclear ambition?
Iran has been feverishly working to perfect a working nuclear weapon. Many fear if Iran gets nuclear capabilities it would work with terrorist organizations to spread them around the world and not hesitate to use them.
But Iran has been plagued with technical problems in their quest to build nuclear weapons. Their computers were infected with a virus and their top nuclear scientists were dying from another virus spread by lead poisoning (bullets). But thanks to White House leaks, the Iranians know their computer problems have been the result of clandestine US and Israeli operations, introducing a worm called Stuxnet . The Iranians know the name of the virus and will now be able to examine security cameras and find the double agent who introduced that virus into their system. Iranian reprisals to anyone that betrayed them will be brutal and deadly.
Drone use should be top secret
Leaks that President Obama was personally picking out terror suspects in the middle east for killing by our ultra secret drones, has also damaged our security. Military experts have said even the mention of our drones is a breach of our military security, much less announcing that President Obama was personally making those life/death decisions.
Some secrets need to stay secret forever
Even more damaging to our war on terror, was the blurting out by White house sources that allies had infiltrated an agent into Al Quaeda. This security breach came when a terror suspect was arrested attempting to board an aircraft wearing the most sophisticated bomb yet seen. The blood sweat and tears spent on the infiltration into Al Quaedas operations was wasted by one statement crowing that we had infiltrated them.
Will investigation be all sound and no fury?
Attorney General Holder works for the White House. The two Assistant Attorney Generals, Holder appointed to investigate these security leaks, work for Holder. Many people don't expect much to happen with Holder in charge of the investigation, especially before November elections. In the meantime, how many brave people working silently in the undercover war on terror will be sacrificed for political gain?

RATSLAYER, MCNAMARA, the "facts" here include the accusations in the story. What is most curious is that in your "defense" of Obama's actions, you NEVER ONCE mention Obama's NAME, nor do you actually attempt to justify his actions or to contradict the facts of the story - so we may only assume that you ACCEPT the accusations and you ACCEPT that his actions are indefensible. Your entire response was to say that OTHER PEOPLE also do bad things - nothing more was offered. That, MCNAMARA, is the very definition of a 'rant'. Please, each of you, REREAD the posts, and THINK about what you are saying before posting. God Bless you both!!

Ah, EXCELLENT RIPOSTE, Ratslayer. Let me see now if I can distill this pretty typical bit of Liberal-style thought down a bit, may I?
CHARGE: Obama leaks National Security secrets to make himself look good and more electable, whatever the consequences to our Soldiers and Allies.
Oh, and you didn't forget to call Obama "that Black Guy" so as to suggest that anyone who disagrees with you isn't simply 'wrong', why he's also an EVIL, a RACIST! BRILLIANT!
CONCLUSION: "And so BUSH' GUILT is why, Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury, President Obama is not to be blamed for these, or any other actions."
MCNAMARA31, you are just as impressive as RATSLAYER, 'cause you helped.

Valerie Plame. What bloody hypocrisy! Bush, the worst president in US history, Cheney, the draft-dodging war criminal, and Karl Rove, the closet-case political operative, DELIBERATELY made public the name of a covert CIA agent to damage Democrats. All 3 should have been before a firing squad. Now, speaking of hurting America for political gain: Knuckle-dragging Republicans are doing their best to undermine the economic recovery just so that Black Guy doesn't win re-election. Republicans dont give a bloody damn about the middle-class or SANE policies that will benefit ALL Americans. The GOP doesn't deserve to run this nation anymore -- which is reflected in the fact that BO is still beating Mittens and that most voters prefer DEMS to lead in Congress. Bat-shitte crazy is as bat-shitte crazy does. In this poor economy (which most still blame Bush for), Mitt and the GOP should be kicking DEM butt, yet they are not. Here's the deal on Mitt: he's a hopelessly out-of-touch a-hole who can't connect with the average joe, whose unfavorables are higher than his favorables. Try having a beer with this pampered horse owner! A lot can happen in 5 months. But of course in the meantime the GOP will keep cheering for higher unemployment and worsening economic data -- because that's what traitors (and d-bags) do.

Okay, I confess: I do a daily search for SX guitars oneBay. Why? Because I've ownedSX axes before and know they'rebuilt solid and they're cheap. Iwas first turned on to SX guitarsby my neighbor Martin, whostarted buying them four yearsago. Whenever I played one ofhis SX electrics, I was always sur-prised at their quality relative totheir price. So I bought my firstSX a few years ago just to testthe waters and was quietly blownaway. I currently own four SXguitars . . . and counting.
Whenever you upgrade pickups on a cheap guitar, you never get your money back when you sell it later.
finish. An outfit in Californiacalled Rondo Music sold theseguitars brand-spanking-new for$135, plus $20 shipping. Saywhat How can anyone make aprofit on that? Sorry, man—notmy problem. I'm a bottom feeder.So I pulled the trigger on one.
1. This SX LP Special TV is clearly a budget repro of Gibson's iconic Les Paul Special in TV yellow. When Gibson first introduced this color in the 1950s, the goal was to create a finish that would look good viewed on a black-and-white television. A white finish was too bright for the cameras of the day to accurately capture, whereas yellow translated well on the tube. 2. Many budget guitars sport a bolt-on neck, but this SX has a set neck—which is essential if you want to emulate the sound of a Les Paul Special. 3. Some guitarists routinely upgrade the pickups on a budget instrument, but the P-90-style pickups on this SX have enough midrange honk to keep me happy.
