It's been dry in many parts of central Wisconsin, and you might be noticing your lawn turning from green to brown. If you are concerned about the plants around your house, you may be wondering what you should water first. Especially if you don't want to spend a lot of money on a big watering bill. Surprisingly, grass is way down on your watering list.
Plants that were recently put in the ground are most susceptible to drought damage. These may include trees, flowers or garden plants. If you have planted trees in the last two years, it is important that you water them regularly. They will need a good soaking once a week during hot dry weather. To "soak" your tree, you will need to turn your garden hose on low and let it run at the base of the tree for more than an hour. If you planted new flowers this year, they will also need watering. Their roots are still developing. Native flowers that have been established for several years will likely survive our drought because of their deep roots. Most of your garden plants fall in the recent planting category if they were planted this spring. Water gardens early in the morning. A deep watering once or twice a week is better than watering a little every day. Mulch will also help your plants survive hot dry weather.
If you have recently planted grass seeds, they will need to waters several times a day for the seedlings to survive hot weather.
Established lawns have turned brown in most neighborhoods. Most of these grasses are just dormant and will green up once it rains. Dormant grass plants have brown tops but the crown and roots are still living. However, there is a limit to how long brown grass can survive without water. If your grass is brown and beginning to get "crunchy" underfoot, you may want to water it one inch per week. Limiting traffic on the grass will also help it survive.

Lens Kit for the Silencer Sunglasses by Native.
Average Custy Rating:
(based on 3 reviews)
I absolutley love my native sunglasses and adore my replacement lenses! I use my natives for everything! Your order and shipping process was very easy and convenient! Thanks! Kira B.
I got the Blue Reflex lenses and they are great for the super bright days. However, do not bring the glasses even with replacement lenses into rough water. The lenses will pop out.
These are reflective lenses are are very delicate. I have destroped the lenses that came with my original glasses. I was very happy to find the replacement lenses. However, I have already scratched the new pair by dropping them in the parking lot of the bike trail.

Born in the eastern town of Rourkela, Badami spent her childhood drifting around India as
her father, a mechanical engineer and train designer, was transferred
frequently. Her family moved at least eight times before she was twenty. Since
her parents both spoke different Indian dialects, English was the bridging
language for the family. (Badami's second language is Hindi.) The convent nuns
who took care of her schooling were not always a receptive audience for Badami's
budding literary talents. "Dear child," one of her teachers commented
in response to a writing assignment, "what big lies you tell. Please ask
your mother to see me." At school the nuns taught Greek and Roman myths,
and even Celtic tales. "The only mythology I don't remember learning in
school was Hindu mythology," Anita recalls. At home, however, Badami was
immersed in the cultures and myths of her family and the multilingual railway
workers. This mélange of myths informed Badami's formidable storytelling
ability and shaped the exploration of heroism that runs throughout her latest
novel. This biography was last updated on 12/06/2012.

Stringfellow gained new permanent CEO Barry Keel on May 7 — just a day before the state gave final approval for the Anniston hospital's long-delayed surgical facility expansion project. The hospital has been without a permanent CEO since the previous one, John Gallagher, stepped down in November.
The hospital announced the $7.5 million expansion project in May last year. Keel said prep work for the project began Wednesday and that actual construction could begin later this week or next week. The project is slated to take between nine and 12 months.
Stringfellow needed final approval from the Alabama Department of Public Health to begin construction. The department licenses all health care facilities statewide to make sure all buildings meet state rules and codes.
"The statement that their drawings have been approved and they can start construction is correct," said Victor Hunt, director of facility management at the state health department.
The expansion project includes upgrading equipment, refurbishing three existing operating rooms and constructing three new operating rooms.
Keel, who worked for the last six years as CEO of Vaughan Regional Medical Center in Selma, said the project would be a boon for the community.
"Clearly it will," Keel said. "Anytime you have that kind of investment for surgery expansions and patient access … clearly the facility needs that to better meet the needs of the patients."
Keel said the project, which will include razing a section of the back of the hospital, would not interrupt medical services.
"The areas we'll be demolishing are primarily office areas and those people have already been relocated," Keel said. "This will be an expansion of what we currently have, so the current operating rooms will be kept in conjunction with the new ones … and eventually we'll begin to tie the two together."
Stringfellow's expansion project was stalled in August after the State Planning and Development Agency's Certificate of Need Review Board put it on hold until the hospital provided more details. Stringfellow's chief competitor, Regional Medical Center, had brought a complaint to the regulatory agency that the expansion project included a plan to offer heart surgery. Stringfellow denied the allegations, saying its initial project plans mentioned a heart surgery facility accidentally and would not be included in the final design.
Under state law, a hospital or other medical facility must obtain a certificate of need from the Certificate of Need Review Board if it intends to expand or build a new facility that surpasses certain cost thresholds or if it plans to offer a new medical service, such as open heart surgery. RMC is the only hospital in the area with state permission to perform heart surgery.
After Stringfellow officials promised the hospital would not perform heart surgery, the state agency gave the initial go-ahead in October for the expansion project.
"Our declaratory ruling covered them as far as that," said Clark Bruner, health planner with the State Planning and Development Agency. "The CON is satisfied."
Keel, a Tallapoosa County native with a degree in health administration from Auburn University, has been a CEO at four other hospitals before coming to Stringfellow. Along with running Stringfellow, Keel will also be market CEO for Riverview Regional Medical Center in Gadsden. Both hospitals are owned by Florida-based Health Management Associates.
Keel said he plans to stay at Stringfellow for years to come.
"Geographically, it's a good place because I have two children currently (at) Auburn University and my wife and I desire to remain in Alabama," Keel said. "It's just the right fit at the right time."

I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING: University of Portsmouth researcher Paul Gnanayutham is working to create an inexpensive, easy-to-use interface that allows a computer to read, interpret and display thoughts and feelings based on eye movement, the use of face muscles and/or brain waves.
Image: Image courtesy of the University of Portsmouth
People suffering from physically debilitating illnesses such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (aka Lou Gehrig's Disease) and traumatic brain injuries often find themselves trapped inside their own bodies, unable to speak, gesture or otherwise communicate with the outside world. Scientists have shown they can create computer interfaces that sense, interpret and display a locked-in person's brain waves, eye movements or facial expressions, but the challenge has been to find cost-effective ways of harnessing this technology for consumer use.
Paul Gnanayutham, a computer scientist at England's University of Portsmouth School of Computing, is attempting to do this by taking a generic, relatively inexpensive interface (software and a sensor-laden headband), loading its software into a laptop, and writing additional code to customize the device to meet the specific needs of different patients with different capabilities.
Gnanayutham chose Brain Actuated Technologies, Inc.'s Cyberlink Interface, which costs about $2,000 per unit, to serve as the core of his brain-to-computer interface kit. Probes on Cyberlink's headband can detect the minute surface electrical signals (resulting from brain and subtle muscle activity) by using electrooculography (EOG) to sense eye movement, electromyography (EMG) to sense the twitching of forehead muscles, and electroencephalography (EEG) to sense brain waves.
Gnanayutham has been searching for ways to improve brain and body computer interfaces since 2001. The past three years, he has worked with Jennifer George, a doctoral candidate at the University of Sunderland in England, focusing on accessibility of young children with severe motor impairment. As part of their research they have taught patients to control a computer cursor using facial muscles (frowning or relaxing their faces to move the cursor up or down) and eye movement (looking left or right to move the cursor accordingly). EMG and EOG sensors proved to work best in this situation, he says, because the muscle and eye movement signals are about 1,000 times stronger than those produced by brain waves (measured via EEG).
Gnanayutham's interest in helping severely disabled patients stems back to a 2000 trip he took with a church group to London's Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability. There he met a 24-year-old man who could communicate only through eye movement, primarily blinking to his nurse to indicate "yes" or "no" in response to her questions. This eye movement may have saved the man's life. Before his family and the hospital staff realized he could control his eye movement, they believed he was in a vegetative state and had made the heart-wrenching decision to disconnect his feeding tube. The man's nurse stopped the procedure when she noticed the patient was moving his eyes in a way that seemed to be communicating with her, Gnanayutham says, adding, "I thought I could do more for people like him."

Online video began as a short form medium, but as creators and audiences become more comfortable with longer videos online, advertising dollars will surely follow suit.
Sites like Hulu and YouTube have been focused on branding partnerships for professional video content online. And consumers are proving that they have the attention span for longer content.

Facebook's changes to the way it deals with privacy and sharing settings represent a major shift in the type of social networking Facebook is encouraging its users to engage in.
The company has long prided itself on giving users the ability to control who sees what you share on its network and even went so far as to create a privacy regime that many found overly complicated.

Is online video advertising undervalued? The online video ad market is estimated to grow to between $2 and $7 billion by 2012. But that's still a drop in the bucket compared to the $70 billion television ad market.
Online publishers and advertisers are frantically creating new formats and content to entice viewers online, but the hurdle in online video ad profitability may have less to do with the quality of the advertising than the quality of the audience.

YouTube's success to date has been measured by its ability to sell ads against video content, but that may be the wrong metric for measuring the video giant's profitability.
Today, Google CEO Eric Schmidt said that YouTube is monetizing according to schedule. But is advertising the only means to reaping YouTube's money making potential? It might also have to do with the information gathering possibilities YouTube presents for the search giant.

Comcast and Time Warner are pairing up to offer more of their content for free online — to people who already subscribe to their cable channels on television. Starting in July, the cable companies will let a group of about 5,000 subscribers access that content online.
The new model will make it harder for people to access television content online for free. And while cable companies will not yet be able to monetize online viewing as profitably as they do offline, the migration of their content online should help them get a foot in the door for charging for that content down the road.

Video giant YouTube is still struggling to turn its impressive popularity into revenue for its parent company Google, and a new shift in advertising options may just get YouTube viewers to help the site figure out those profitability issues.
Part of YouTube's problem stems from its content and figuring out what kind of advertising makes sense paired with user generated videos. But starting today, the video giant is enlisting viewers to say what ads should go where.
YouTube is beginning to let users choose what ads they will see paired with individual videos. The switch will serve the same purpose of asking viewers to rate advertising content, and could go a long way toward figuring out what kind of advertising works on the site.

Twitter's utility as a means to share breaking news is not new. Its track record includes the bombings in Mubai and the landing of US Airways Flight 1549 in the Hudson River.
Over the weekend, Twitter became a hotbed for reporting and discussion of the contentious presidential election in Iran.

The creators of one of the web's most successful video shows are giving up on creating new content. Due to the financial deifficulty of branding original concepts, EQAL (the makers of lonelygirl15) have stopped producing original content.
Struggling to find advertising partners able to support their original content online, EQAL will now focus on creating video with stars that already have established audiences, like FoodNetwork star Paula Dean.
According to NewTeeVee:
"First up is Get Cookin'; the reality TV/cooking show hybrid follows Deen on the road, and fans will be encouraged to upload their own videos and blog posts. There's also a pending project for CSI-creator Anthony Zuiker, called Level26.com (pictured), a "digi-novel" that includes online and actual bound book storytelling, as well The Kind Life, a green-centric series fronted by actress Alicia Silverstone."

Here's an A-Z braindump that I compiled in about an hour. It is aimed at providing a snapshot of what social media is all about, and what brands need to focus on before wading in.
You might be familiar with social media, but hopefully you'll give me a pass as some of this stuff bears repeating. However I think this A-Z is going to be more useful if you're somebody who is trying to convince your boss that adopting a social media strategy is a good idea (it is). Good luck with that!

Many businesses are interested in employing social media to their benefit but there are a number of challenges that make social media a challenging proposition.
One of them is making social media sustainable. As exciting as it can be to start using Facebook, Twitter and other popular social media websites, excitement usually wears off real fast and many businesses struggle to sustain their social media efforts.

The Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer recognises and encourages the most promising new British talent in film writing, directing or producing.
BAFTA/Richard KendalThe Award recognises a special achievement by a Brit in their first feature film and encourages the most promising new talent in the film industry.
< Paddy Considine and Diarmid Scrimshaw: Outstanding Debut Award winners in 2012
The award was introduced in 1998 when it was known as the Carl Foreman Award, and was run in conjunction with the Williams-Jones Foundation. In 2010 the Award became known as Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer.
Born in Chicago, Carl Foreman made his mark in Hollywood with such notable screenplays as Champion (1949), which established Kirk Douglas as a major star, and The Men (1950), which launched the career of Marlon Brando. During the filming of High Noon (1952), for which he not only produced but also wrote the Oscar-nominated screenplay, Carl was summoned to appear before the infamous House Un-American Activities Committee.
Refusing to "name names," he was blacklisted and forced to move to Britain to further his career. In 1957 he won an Oscar with Michael Wilson for their screenplay of Bridge On The River Kwai. Carl went on to produce, write and direct films, including The Mouse That Roared (1959), Guns Of Navarone (1961), The Victors (1963), Born Free (1966) and Young Winston (1972). In 1976, he was honoured by his adoptive country with a CBE – rare for an American.
"The exceptionally high standard of previous Carl Foreman Award winners fittingly honours Carl's memory," says Eve Williams-Jones (formerly Foreman). "He was passionately committed to the training and development of new generations of filmmakers who understood that the medium not only had the potential to inform and enlighten, but was required to entertain as well."

Minutes before tipoff on Wednesday night, Udonis Haslem wished the crowd at AmericanAirlines Arena a happy Thanksgiving on behalf of the Miami Heat.
The fans applauded in gracious holiday form, but more fittingly because this man was on the verge of doing something special in his hometown against the Milwaukee Bucks.
"Zo, I'm sorry but it's over," Dwyane Wade said earlier in the day, anticipating that a minute is all it would take for his longtime teammate to surpass Alonzo Mourning as the all-time franchise leader in rebounds.
At 2:37 of the first quarter, with the Heat leading 22-13, Haslem, 32, quietly made his mark on the Heat's history with his second rebound of the game. He surpassed Mourning with 4,808. By the end of the game, he would add six more.
"I don't know how much he's going to say ... How much he's going to show, but it's something that's important to him," Wade said. "It's something that's going to live with him for a long time."
When the clock stopped for a free throw and the announcer marked the milestone, Haslem acknowledged the sold-out crowd of 19,971 with a small wave.
Signed as an undrafted free agent by the Heat in 2003, his success during the past last decade with the team is unprecedented. Said LeBron James, 'to get in is one thing, but to stay is another,' a testament to the character of his teammate.
"He's not your typical leading franchise rebound guy, I think it's just amazing what he's done," Heat center Chris Bosh said. "He's a relentless rebounder, a great defender, a great leader. We couldn't do what we do without him."
Haslem's Heat teammates looked up at the scoreboard at the end of the first quarter. A short tribute paid respect to the storied career of the Miami native. He was looking the other way, paying attention to what coach Erik Spoelstra had on his clipboard.
"[Haslem] means everything to the city," James said. "Guys are always trying to compare people's height and things of that nature, but it's about the determination and the will that someone has inside them, the war mentality that ... allows them to succeed."
As Wade predicted, at the end of the Heat's 113-106 overtime win, his co-captain's focus was on his team. The magnitude of his personal accomplishments in the game secondary to the energy of a hard-fought battle against the Bucks.
"He really had to work for those first two rebounds, and the next two fell into his hands," Spoelstra said after the game.

Peugeot Pepper Mills and Salt Grinders
Peugeot pepper mills and salt mills come in variety of colors and material. Select what best fits your home decor. Each grinder is made in France by Peugeot and has a lifetime guarantee.
Peugeot has been making high quality salt and pepper grinders for more than 150 years. Choose from a wide range of mills, from traditional wooden bistro pepper grinders to a contemporary electric pepper mill.
Peugeot Salt & Pepper Grinder Sets -- Buy both, Save 15%
Save 15% when you buy a Peugeot pepper and salt set instead of buying both items separately. You'll appreciate the savings and the lifetime grinder mechanism warranty from Peugeot mills.
Peugeot Pepper Mills
Peugeot pepper mills havee a two-stage pepper grinding mechanism where it first cracks the pepper corn and then grinds them to the size you desire. These mills are made to Peugeot's high quality standards and includes a lifetime guarantee on the grinding mechanism.
Peugeot Salt Grinders
Peugeot also features wine accessories for oenophiles. Rechargeable Peugeot electric corkscrews can easily remove even the most troubling cork. The Peugeot wine aging key can help you age your young bordeaux in seconds.
Peugeot Wood Salt & Pepper Grinders
A wooden Peugeot pepper mill, such as the Paris evokes thoughts of a French bistro. Select froma variety of wooden, traditionally crafted Peugeot pepper grinders and salt mills to find the right ones for the mood you want to create.
Peugeot Electric Salt & Pepper Grinders
Rechargeable electric pepper mills or battery powered pepper grinders make it especially easy for you to grind exactly the grain you want. Some of these mills even include a small spotlight so you can easily see the pepper grind size as well as the amount you need.
No metal particles
Many other grinders "shave" small particles of metal along with the pepper. Peugeot grinders are especially durable because they are "case hardened," which means nitrogen or carbon is diffused into the steel during manufacturing to give it extra strength, almost glass-like hardness. Peugeot salt mills and pepper mills are also durable and precise in grinding because each groove is individually cut into the metal.
Unique 2 stage pepper grinding
Unlike other pepper mills, the Peugeot pepper mills has a unique two-stage grinding process. In the first stage, the pepper corn is cracked. In the second stage, you select the size of the grind that's best for the dish you're creating. This second stage grinding is very important because it ensures a very fine and consistent grind. Cracking peppercorns before grinding them also provides freshest and most flavorful pepper taste.
Peugeot's patented innovation enables you to adjust the pepper grind to the size of grain that you need for your creation. For hearty meaty dishes, you might choose a coarse grind. For delicate, light sauces that just need a hint of pepper, you'd want the finest possible grind.

(November 7, 2013) -- When Twitter begins trading publicly this month, it will do so with a board composed entirely of white men. Thirty or 40 years ago, this may not have been strange; I daresay that few would have questioned this decision at all. But today, with women's substantial use of social media, I am truly shocked that a major corporation would allow such a gross oversight.

Order Standard by 2 p.m. ET 12/19 for 12/24 delivery. Standard $25+ orders ship free
This deodorant is great for a little cooler climates. It smells amazing is good for sensitive skin. However during the heat of summer it may not hold up against really hot days.
No go, don't love the smell while it keeps sweat under control it leaves a sticky film and and odd odor when combining with my body chemistry.
This actually works. The scent is fairly neutral on, plus, you don't smell like a mushroom like with other natural deodorants. Buy in bulk and thank me later.
The deodorant stick smells great and as advertised is moisturizing as well as odor-zapping. But... it lasts more like 10hrs than 24hrs, so I keep a second one in my office just in case.
Did nothing for keeping me smelling fresh throughout the day or keeping me dry. It smells really good and goes on smooth and that's the plus. If you don't have a problem with sweating and body odor, it might be a good deal.
I am not a huge sweater so I was less concerned about the sweat prevention. I was looking for something that smelled nice and was natural. This works great for me.
I love the smell, texture, and packaging! Does seem to be moisturizing. However, I'm a personal trainer so I'm moving around a lot, and by the end of the day, even with multiple applications, it just doesn't keep the smell completely away. I don't think anyone could smell me, but when I check my shirt, there's definitely an odor other than the deodorant. I would still recommend this for daily wear that does not involve lots of physical activity. It even lasts through a workout, but definitely would want to shower after. (PS- I don't usually have problems with underarm sweat or odor, just average need for deodorant)
I was so pumped to have found this product and I rushed to my closest store to get it. I had even read about how great it was but it did definitely not leave me feeling fresh. I am not sure what awards it has won but I just can't count on it. The only moisture is from my sweat which seemed even more stinky than ever before - maybe it just doesn't work with my chemistry... :(
Smells nice enough but does not work at all. I'm not a smelly person but this makes me feel like one. :( Wish I could get a refund.
I don't get sweaty with this which is nice, but I don't feel like it has a nice lasting smell. I love that it has no aluminum in it, I just wish the smell was a little nicer and lasted longer, but when I sweat it didn't show on my red shirt.

Warner Bros. announced on 12th September 2013 that J.K. Rowling would be making her screenwriting debut with Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the first in a new film series which is part of their expanded creative partnership with J.K. Rowling. The films will be inspired by Harry Potter's Hogwarts textbook of the same name, and will feature the book's fictitious author, Newt Scamander.
"It all started when Warner Bros. came to me with the suggestion of turning Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them into a film. I thought it was a fun idea, but the idea of seeing Newt Scamander, the supposed author of Fantastic Beasts, realized by another writer was difficult. Having lived for so long in my fictional universe, I feel very protective of it and I already knew a lot about Newt. As hard-core Harry Potter fans will know, I liked him so much that I even married his grandson, Rolf, to one of my favourite characters from the Harry Potter series, Luna Lovegood.
As I considered Warners' proposal, an idea took shape that I couldn't dislodge. That is how I ended up pitching my own idea for a film to Warner Bros.
Although it will be set in the worldwide community of witches and wizards where I was so happy for seventeen years, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is neither a prequel nor a sequel to the Harry Potter series, but an extension of the wizarding world. The laws and customs of the hidden magical society will be familiar to anyone who has read the Harry Potter books or seen the films, but Newt's story will start in New York, seventy years before Harry's gets underway.
I particularly want to thank Kevin Tsujihara of Warner Bros. for his support in this project, which would not have happened without him. I always said that I would only revisit the wizarding world if I had an idea that I was really excited about and this is it."
To celebrate the paperback release of The Casual Vacancy, reading website Goodreads asked fans of the book to submit any questions that they would like to ask J.K. Rowling- more than 1,500 questions were submitted, and from a poll of finalists the winning question was chosen. You can now read the winning question and find out J.K. Rowling's answer and insights about the book here.
"I hoped to keep this secret a little longer, because being Robert Galbraith has been such a liberating experience! It has been wonderful to publish without hype or expectation and pure pleasure to get feedback from publishers and readers under a different name. The upside of being rumbled is that I can publicly thank my editor David Shelley, who has been a true partner in crime, all those people at Little, Brown who have been working so hard on The Cuckoo's Calling without realizing that I wrote it, and the writers and reviewers, both in the newspapers and online, who have been so generous to the novel. And to those who have asked for a sequel, Robert fully intends to keep writing the series, although he will probably continue to turn down personal appearances."
J.K. Rowling has contributed a personally annotated first edition of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone to be auctioned at Sotheby's London on 21st May, as part of English PEN's First Editions, Second Thoughts sale.
The sale of the book will help raise money for English PEN (www.englishpen.org) and J.K. Rowling's own charity Lumos (www.wearelumos.org).

BBC Once and BBC Drama have commissioned an exclusive adaptation of The Casual Vacancy from The Blair Partnership who represent J.K. Rowling. The series will be produced through an independent production company operated by Neil Blair and Rick Senat, on behalf of The Blair Partnership, which will engage the executive series producer.

J.K. Rowling will be doing a live global webcast all about Harry Potter from her home town of Edinburgh, on Thursday 11th October at 12pm ET/9am PT (5pm BST).

My next guest knows firsthand just how dangerous -- can be says it's not the only country and we've not heard.
From that country retired commander Kirk -- survive USS Cole bombing in Yemen.
And spells out the al-Qaeda threat beautifully in front burner attack on the USS Cole.
Where he's sort of -- does is all the problems and that whole neck of the woods so commit right I guess -- went to surprise on these reports by and and you suspect more.
I think -- I do thanks for having me on the show as a matter of fact when you look at Yemen he continues to be the nexus and centerpoint.
For a lot of these terrorist threats.
And while they were able to disrupt this bomb plot the other day and detect -- and as a result hopefully that was tied to the killing of a principal co conspirator this past weekend -- -- so.
Clearly al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula based out of Yemen maintains the ability to reach out and attempt to kill Americans throughout the world.
But they've got to have a lot of money enters backing them.
I mean this kind of stuff and you know even rough science doesn't come -- No it doesn't they've got some of the most dedicated brilliant minds working for them clearly the attempt with the unsuccessful underwear bombing but also.
Be much more sophisticated.
Up printer cartridge bombing and now this latest one where there were no metals involved.
Indicates a degree of sophistication.
That does not come cheap does not come easy.
Clearly there is state sponsor behind it somewhere we just don't know where it's coming from.
But there clearly got the money -- -- is necessary to continue to build the sophisticated weapons and make attempt after attempt.
Because just like with the attack on USS Cole.
These terrorists have one thing on their hands that we don't have next time and they're willing to take as much of that is necessary to achieve their objective.
And they only have to succeed wants you know you know connecting a better -- you wrote and discuss departed views of may have.

They always like to -- for something spectacular.
I mean indicate some cold while you can attack buildings and embassies which house and represented US interest.
An attack on a warship or that one of our airliners.
That clearly is an act of war you're going after US economic interest they -- to try and affect our economy as much as possible.
Drive in more inconveniences more invasive.
Pirate privacy.
Measures that are going to affect our society and we just need to be diligent I mean the fact that you have to the military I mean we always Yemen does diligent Manges.
Parkinson troops and governor -- Well -- -- -- that's a very good question because one of the problems you have today while the drone program is being touted by the administration is being effective.
We have to remember every one of these high level al-Qaeda operatives that we kill.
It's a chance to capture and have high level intelligence gleaned from them as well so the drone -- mile it's on its face -- appear effective.
In the long run continuing the over reliance that we are beginning to see on that.
May in fact be creating dangers for the United States they'll eventually find a way around it and when they do.
We will no longer have the intelligence we need because this administration wants to close Guantanamo Bay.
Not use military commissions and hence the intelligence that we can get from capturing these high level guys is not being utilized to defend our nation for the long term commander.

Ka'iulani: Hawaii's Island Rose
In a brief life filled with loss, Princess Ka'iulani established her legacy
- By Janet Hulstrand
- Smithsonian.com, May 08, 2009, Subscribe
2009 marks the fiftieth anniversary of Hawaii's statehood. It was only through a complicated series of events that this independent island kingdom, thousands of miles away from the west coast of North America, joined the United States. One of the pivotal figures in this history is also surprisingly little known, though the story of Princess Ka'iulani is both tragic and inspiring.
"Princess Ka'iulani is an important person in the history of Hawaii, but not necessarily because of the things she accomplished in her life," says DeSoto Brown, archivist at Hawaii's Bishop Museum. "She never got to be a ruler, so you can't really look at her political career…You could almost say that she is known for what she wasn't able to do. Circumstances intervened to prevent her going farther with her life." Jennifer Fahrni, coauthor of the new play Ka'iulani: The Island Rose, explains "The circumstances and sadness surrounding her death have gained more attention than any of the details of her life. It's unfortunate that Ka'iulani's heroic stand for her people is not better known."
Victoria Ka'iulani Cleghorn was born in Honolulu in 1875, the daughter of Princess Miriam Likelike (sister of the reigning King Kalakaua) and Archibald Scott Cleghorn, a prominent Scottish businessman. Since both King Kalakaua and Lili'uokalani, the sister who was to succeed him, were childless, the birth of Ka'iulani (meaning "royal sacred one") assured the future of the dynasty.
As a child, Ka'iulani led a charmed life. She lived at Ainahau, a sprawling estate in Waikiki, a then-pristine rural area east of Honolulu. Her mother was a wonderful entertainer who welcomed many people into their home, including the poet and author Robert Louis Stevenson, who befriended the young Ka'iulani. It was Stevenson who first referred to Ka'iulani as "the island rose" in a poem he wrote for her and inscribed in her autograph book.
But the Princess's life was also filled with loss at an early age. She was just six when both her beloved governess and her godmother died, and eleven when her mother died of a mysterious illness, purportedly leaving the child with a frightening deathbed prediction that Ka'iulani's life would be filled with loneliness and loss, and that she would never fulfill her destiny as Hawaii's queen.
At the age of 13 Ka'iulani was sent to boarding school in England. "Her father wanted her to have the best education possible, to be educated like a proper young lady" Brown explains, "especially since she was royalty and it was anticipated that she would have important responsibilities in connection with her position." It would be nine years before she would see her native land again; and when she finally returned, Hawaii was no longer an independent nation.
In January 1893, Ka'iulani's aunt, Queen Lili'uokalani, was forced from her throne by a group of local businessmen of American and British descent, backed by the U.S. Marines. Calling themselves the Committee of Safety, they sought to overthrow the queen and annex Hawaii to the United States. The Queen yielded her power and appealed to the American people to restore Hawaii's constitutional monarchy as the legitimate government of the people.
At the time of these events, Ka'iulani was still in England. Just 17 years old, she sailed to New York to make her own direct appeal to the American people for the restoration of the government to her people. She made an immediate impression on the reporters who met her ship when it docked. A reporter from the San Francisco Examiner countered earlier disparaging reports about the Hawaiian royal family and described her as "...the very flower...of civilization," and added, "The Princess Kaiulani is a charming, fascinating individual."

Thank you for the wonderful article about Princess Ka'iulani. She was a very courageous young Hawaiian and I enjoy reading about her. Aloha nui, Cher
Posted by Cher Pendarvis on June 2,2012 | 10:33 PM
Unfortunately comments like Mr. Conklin's "memory of her is used as a political weapon to seek race-based political sovereignty for ethnic Hawaiians.", highly underrate the power of Princess Ka'iulani's memory. Mr. Conklin also mentions her "failed effort" and states that he is unaware of Ka'iulani's other accomplishments.
Ka'iulani didn't fail. If she hadn't spoken up, then maybe you could say she had failed. But in the face of the worst untruths about herself and her family, when all seemed lost, Ka'iulani, with the greatest dignity, spoke up and simply set the record straight. Her words are still strong today, and 100 years later, people are listening.

I am 63 years old and have lived in Hawaii all of my life.
I am just beginning to know of the rich history of the Hawaiian Islands. I have read the book "The Disenchanted Isles" which has sparked further interest in the history of the Hawaiian Kingdom.

Just another way that America has tarnished its own name. First the Indians, then hawaii, and now the middle east. If we had any dignity left as a country we would give hawaii back to its people and restore the royal family to their throne. A country that continuously takes what is not their's will surely have its own taken away in the end.

anyone noticed the likeness of Sasha Obama and Kaiulani?
The deep set dark rounded eyes, the nose and complexion
are very similar.

There is nothing "race-based" About Hawaii's sovereignty. the racial composite of Hawaiian Nationals Are intermingled with the origins of the many immigrants that settled in Hawaii.(A true melting pot long before America emerged). Today we carry on that tradition and Include the many descendants of non-Kanaka Maoli (non Native Hawaiian) Nationals in the nation RE-building proses. The sovereignty of Hawaii still exists, a recognized Governing Body is in the Proses of being chosen. At witch time a change of land-lordship will be sought. This an Ugly chapter in American history, one that I would think every American would support rectifying. If all the facts were known! www.freehawaii.info
Posted by A Hawaiian on October 30,2009 | 04:09 PM
Princess Ka'iulani did what any young princess would do under similar circumstances -- she tried to protect her birthright to inherit a kingdom. So far as I know, that failed effort was her only "accomplishment."
But today the memory of her is used as a political weapon to seek race-based political sovereignty for ethnic Hawaiians. Please see the book "Hawaiian Apartheid: Racial Separatism and Ethnic Nationalism in the Aloha State" at

Mahalo, Janet for the great article!
Having been immersed in Hawaiian history for almost 20 years now, I am constantly amazed at how little the 'western' world knows or understands about Hawai'i or Polynesia. Currently, I'm working on the first of a historical fiction trilogy on the Hawaiian story and writing about Ka'iulani's ancestors! Hawaiians/Polynesians were some of the finest navigators in the world, were "green" long before western culture even thought about it. They did aqua culture with fish ponds, were careful about fishing in certain seasons to make sure they didn't deplete their resources and with no 'goods' coming in from anywhere else, were able to have a thriving society that supported close to a million people! It was that last hundred years or so after western contact that devastated their culture far more than any of the inter-island wars and Ka'iulani was among a small group that tried valiantly to try to save their island home. Thank you so much for your article and your work that opens windows of understanding into the complex history of Hawai'i!

I read this essay as part of a communications class. I have been to Hawaii and that is why your article caught my eye. This article helped fill in the details of the story. It is truely a shame what the United States did to Hawaii. We should have let them maintain their government. Why do we always think if things are not our way they are not the right way? It would be nice to think we would learn from our history, but alas we are destined to repeat it. Wonderful, well-written article. Thank you.

Thank you for this article. I am planning a trip to Hawaii in September, and this provides much background information about its history. I always enjoy reading the monthly issues.

It combines the superb tone and punch of a matched quartet of Sovtek 5881 power tubes with specially selected 12AX7 preamp tubes for solid tube tone and reliability. This roadworthy amp head provides the serious musician with monstrous gain, an extreme range of tone options and a sparkling clean channel.
The three-channel B-52 ATX will take you from shimmering cleans with just the right touch of its lush spring reverb, to an all-out metal assault. The clean channel is designed to stay clean all the way up unless you push the master volume to get that nice warm power tube break-up. The clean channel features a volume, responsive 3-band EQ as well as a bright switch. The B-52 head's overdrive section features 2 channels with separate volume and gain controls that share a 3-band EQ. The newly designed mid-cut feature is assignable to either of the overdrive channels giving you the ability for a brutal rhythm channel and a searing lead tone. All channels share a master volume, low-res (resonance) and reverb control.

Shepard's Shot
The first American spaceflight was a triumph—for an astronaut and for a nation.
- By Tony Reichhardt
- AirSpaceMag.com, May 05, 2011
After Freedom 7, much of Shepard's NASA career was spent in frustration. Although he had hoped to fly the first two-man Gemini mission, flight doctors sidelined him due to an inner ear condition, and he was relegated to office jobs. In 1969 he had corrective surgery and returned to flight status. Two years later, at the age of 47, he stood on the moon's surface as commander of the Apollo 14 mission.
